- Voice Actor: Calvin Wimmer (English, credited as "Wheelbot")
When N.E.S.T. and the Autobots come to Shanghai, they encounter Demolishor and Sideways. Demolishor transforms and swats at N.E.S.T. helicopters as he begins to make himself mobile before proceeding onto a highway. Ironhide chases him, but has little success, so Optimus Prime is released into the fray from a military transport plane. Demolishor destroys an overpass just as Optimus transforms and jumps off the bridge. Optimus manages to dive onto Demolishor, grabbing onto his face as he proceeds down the highway. Optimus shoots him repeatedly, forcing the Decepticon to fall over the edge of the highway and crash into the ground. As Optimus Prime and Ironhide approach him, he declares that "This is not your planet to rule, The Fallen shall rise again." before Optimus Prime delivered a point-blank blast right in his face, killing him mercilessly.

[edit] Revenge of The Fallen: The game
Demolishor appears as a boss in the level Shanghai Waterfront. His ranged attack is launching missiles, and if you get close to him, he does a ground pound. After you destroy him, he will say "The Fallen shall rise again".

[edit] Trivia
- For a long time, Demolishor was thought to be a part of Devastator. However, it is Scavenger who forms the Devastator with other Constructicons. According to Scavenger's legends toy, Demolishor and Scavenger has the same humanoid mode.
- He was the most prominently featured Transformer in all trailers, but received a pathetically short screentime of four minutes and was very quickly (and quite mercilessly) killed by Prime despite his initial enormous advantage. Reminds you of someone?
- He moves by alternating between his two gigantic wheels, using the momentum to "push" himself forward. This looks awesome in the movie, but is hard to copy with the toy.
- He's the second largest Transformer in the film, Devastator in first.
- How did he arrive in Shanghai unnoticed? In the first movie the autobots had a hard time keeping a low profile when they arrived. His protoform would have been MASSIVE!
- In the rough cut of the Shanghai battle, Ironhide is seen jumping onto Demolisher and blowing up his monstrous tire while on the freeway. This was not shown in the final movie sequence, but when he crashed, one of his tires was partially destroyed in the same manner as the rough cut version.
- In the game and rough cut, Demolisher can fire missiles. Unfortunately, he doesn't do this in the final film.
- His toy and concept art is red with white stripes, but he's white with red stripes in the film. Someone make up your mind already.
- IDW comics depicts him as normal excavator, not the gigantic Terex. Thus, he and Scavenger are not looking similar.
