1. Jive-talking Twin Transformers Raise Race Issues - AP

    Associated Press:

    LOS ANGELES – “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” introduces some 40 new mechanized characters of all shapes, sizes and even sexes — but it’s a pair of jive-talking ‘bots that critics are singling out as more than just harmless comic relief.

    Skids and Mudflap, twin robots disguised as compact Chevys, constantly brawl and bicker in rap-inspired street slang. They’re forced to acknowledge that they can’t read. One has a gold tooth.
