Skids and Mudflap (Michael Bay pentalogy)

Skids and Mudflap are characters from the Transformers series. They are a pair of twin Autobots who transformed into an old-fashioned ice cream truck, and later into a green Chevy Beat and an orange Chevy Trax respectively. They both debuted in Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen and were killed off-screen by Sentinel Prime in Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon. Their deaths were shown in one of the latter film's comic book adaptations, namely the one by IDW.

Why They Deserve To Be Killed By Sentinel Prime

 * 1) They are extremely annoying.
 * 2) Both of their designs are grotesque; especially for Transformers standards, especially considering Michael Bay went overboard in Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen.
 * 3) They can both be compared to Jar Jar Binks. Both are aliens and are the supposed comic reliefs of their respective films.
 * 4) * One of the only differences is that Skids and Mudflap are robots and Jar Jar Binks is an animal.
 * 5) * The other only difference is that Jar Jar Binks is one being while Skids and Mudflap are a duo, which would mean double the annoyances.
 * 6) Skids and Mudflap barely contribute a thing to the story whatsoever.
 * 7) Both Skids and Mudflap barely help the heroes. In fact, all they do is just get them irritated (as mentioned above); including Bumblebee, who got irritated to the point where he picked up both of the twins and bumped them together.
 * 8) The plot hole is that Mudflap somehow survives being sucked into Devastator which is confusing when he would have just been torn apart.
 * 9) They're so awful that even Michael Bay admits that he hated both Skids and Mudflap.
 * 10) They represent racist stereotypes of African-Americans; from talking in ghetto slang, to admitting to being bad at reading.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) They got what they deserved when Bumblebee bashed them together, as mentioned above, and then threw them out of the temple.
 * 2) Their voices, provided by Tom Kenny and Reno Wilson, aren't that bad in particular.
 * 3) They do have a few funny moments here and there.
