Sharp is a human from the Transformers portion of the movie continuity family.
From Sharp minds come Sharp™ products.

Colonel Sharp, United States Marine Corps, is the commanding officer of SOCCENT Forward Operations Base in Qatar. He's very no-nonsense and ready to declare to hostiles their intent to use deadly force if their hand is played.

He is easily confused by helicopters.

Fiction

[edit]

Transformers film

[edit]
Actor: Glenn Morshower
Voice actor: Takuya Kirimoto (Japanese dub), Kaspar Eichel (German dub), Patrick Borg (European French dub), Gabriel Pingarrón (Latin America-Spanish dub), Isaac Schneider (Portuguese dub), Stefano Mondini (Italian dub), Hüseyin Özay (Turkish dub)

It was a very bad day for Colonel Sharp when a mysterious helicopter entered his command's airspace and refused to identify itself. Things got even worse when it turned out the helicopter was 4500X, which had been shot down over Afghanistan three months ago. By the time the base's radar was jammed, Sharp was at the limits of his patience, and he ordered the crew of the helicopter to step out or be shot. And everything pretty much went to hell when said helicopter transformed into a colossal robot and rampaged across the base, tossing tanks and jets into the air.

When the giant robot began trying to download top-secret military data, Sharp physically cut the lines to the server with a fire axe, thus preventing the invader from getting all the data it was after.

Sharp and most of the rest of those stationed at SOCCENT were presumed to have been killed. Transformers

Sharp's involvement in the preceding events, or events mostly similar, were also chronicled in the novels "Transformers," and "Transformers: The Junior Novel," and in the comic mini-series "Transformers: Movie Adaptation."

Notes

[edit]
  • Sharp is credited as "SOCCENT sergeant" in Transformers.
  • According to writers Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman, Colonel Sharp is a small homage to the Colonel Sharp character that appeared in the 1984 G.I. Joe: The Revenge of Cobra mini-series.[1]
  • Despite Sharp being killed off in the film, actor Glenn Morshower was asked by director Michael Bay to appear in its sequel, Revenge of the Fallen. His new (admittedly similar) character in Revenge was named after him.[2]
