Just for fun - fan theories on why Megan Fox got the boot

[Ode to a Grasshopper]

Since we don't have an official reason for Megan Fox no longer being part of TF3, and since no-one really seems to care, I figure we might as well have some fun and see what theories (plausible, stupid, funny or what have you) we can come up with. Try to keep it clean...

My favourite theory of the moment is she's really an Alice-style pretender/Austin Powers style fembot, so Micheal Bay booted her in favour of more screen-time for the humans (well, Shia LaBouef anyway).

Michael Bay felt threatened by her because she was more of a man than he was

Or maybe she was counting her chickens before they hatched...

Or she bit the hand that fed her and even bit off more than she could chew.

Or better yet, maybe they wanted her to stick her head in a microwave to get a tan

In other words, she dared to be stupid!

A prop robot fell on her, and she walked out. The take was subsequently used as her death scene.

She declared herself as an independent sovereign nation known as the MSRF (May-gan Socialite Republic of Fox), and so her presence on U.S. soil was deemed an act of war. President Obama, being a great fan of Beachcomber, granted her a special pardon where she had her sovereignty revoked and was expelled from the U.S. mainland. She has been permitted to reside in Alaska where she currently lives in a modest estate in the same neighbourhood as Sarah Palin. After accompany Ms. Palin on three moose hunts, Ms. Palin pulled some strings and now her house is known as tributary state to Alaska. Megan Fox's title is now HRHACMBP(PH)GMPF II (Her Royal Highness the Archduchess of the Collegiate of "Michael Bay is a Poo-Poo-Head" of the Greater May-gan Principality of Fox the Second).

When asked if she'd like to stay in the film she gave a thumbs up, no one could tell so they assumed she quit.

I think thats not far off what really happened

[Sharky]

its easy they decided they had enough make believe in the movie and they couldnt stand the fabrication of the mini angelina jolie clone running around actually calling her self megan fox.

or more likley, her appeal is wearing off so they going for some fresh meat errr eyecandy,, lets face it.... did megan fox actually "act" in the movie

The producers of Baywatch were going to sue over her slo-mo running shots from RotF, and this was part of the out-of-court settlement along with a televised date with David Hasselhoff to try to revive his career.
