    There's no atmosphere in space so no convection currents and they only lose heat through radiation.

    And he was annoying (plus he ate all the doughnuts)

    i found a mistake. Sam says that his granfather was in the doin his search in the artic in 1897 but when frenzy finds the paper on air force 1 the date is 1895.

    That's because he was more interested in flogging his grandfather's (or was it great grandfather) memorbilia than getting his facts right

    I thought the power of the Allspark fixed Bumblebees voice when he shrunk it

    I thought we'd see him transform into an electric wheelchair at the end of the film.

    Heres another, how the hell did the Deceptions get to earth without being noticed, whereas Bumblebee was spotted landing in the comic prequel by Sector 7 and the other Autobots caused a huge display when they landed

    This movie had alot of mistakes for me, one of the main ones was with Bumblebee and the Allspark. When Frenzy sees the allspark , its repair him. Bumblebee looses his legs and picks up the allspark and hands it to Sam. There is no repair.

    Also Barricade goes Awol, will there be an extended version in the DVD were we see what happens ?

    During when sam gets chased by the dogs he throws his car keys at the bumblebee, he never gets access to the car again and later on when hes getting chased by the mustang and close lines that hot girl on the bike he tries to start the car again near the warehouses with the keys in the car. there shouldnt be any keys in the car.

    I honestly think that Barricade is a double agent, most likely Prowl in disguise.

    Got it as a Birthday pressie myself, good to see it again. If you watch to the very end of the movie there is another menu with the original TF teaser trailer and a trailer for the new Iron Man movie too. Pretty good!

    Well I assume those guns were developed using the same artic ice that would have frozen Megatron which, considering he landed on earth so long ago, would have been stronger ice with less carbon pollution and CFCs so all they had to do was harness the ice at the strength it was where they found him

    Because if they had not had it would have looked ridiculous

    He was fixed by Rachet while they recovered from the battle

    * Why did the military want the allspark moved to a city at risk to millions of people?

    They wanted to move it to an area where they could signal for a chopper

    * considering how easy a transformer can kill another one, how come they survived this long??

    Because they all avoided each other, the Decepticons only wanted to find their leader, the Autobots just wanted to keep the Spark hidden. And they'd all been looking in different places of the universe for the All Spark

    Why didn't Frenzy just use the eBay "Buy it Now" option for Ladysman217's glasses ? :eek:

    Because it wouldnt have been a good movie

    In the comic and (apparently) the deleted scenes Barricade is killed by Optimus Prime shortly after he kills Brawl. In the theatrical version this doesnt happen and theres no explanation as to why. Apparently Michael Bay loved this character immensly because he loved the idea of a Transformers police car, perhaps he didnt want to see him die

    Ok so these may not be plotholes but..........

    1) Prime has eyelashes!!!! WTF!!!!

    2) Also the face mask that he has on in battle mode should be on permanently. looks sooooooo much better.

    3) Megatron?????

    Nuff said really.

    From a fan of Prime since he was a humble Orion Pax

    Sorry if this is a repeat but...

    The biggest plot hole was the absence of a plot.

    Mark if it's any consolation I find that watching the animated movie from '87 cheers me right up!

    Was talking to Wildfur about 2 years ago and we were delighted that one half (Furman) was going to be involved. Pity it didn't pan out in the end.

    Bay has promised ot do Soundwave properly in the sequel and that he'd better do or there'll be slaps thrown. And Jar Jar Frenzy had better not be in it.
