Director Michael Bay says that Skids and Mudflap, which caused some controversy for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, will not be back for next summer's Transformers 3. Bay posted a simple message on his forums stating that "The Twins are not back in T3."

The Los Angeles Times has published an article on Ramon Rodriguez, who plays Leo Spitz in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. It sounds like he'll be back for the third installment.

Michael Bay talked to Collider about numerous things, including his latent desire to expedite a "hostile takeover" of that site, how he got permission to shoot on the pyramids in Egypt, and whether or not he'd want to come back for a third TRANSFORMERS film.
