When Sam is brought to the cemetery to meet Optimus, you can see the green mark on the grass where Sam is supposed to stand while talking to him. (This can also be seen in one of the trailers, 48 seconds in). See more...

Shia LaBeouf's hand was seriously injured during a car accident. LaBeouf returned to filming, and the injury was written into the film as Sam damaging his hand falling out of the space bridge.
This film holds the Guinness World Record for the largest explosion with actors involved put on screen.
During the library scene when they are running away from the girl, if you look closely most of the shots with Sam you can see a light colored hand bandage around his left hand from his car accident during filming.
When the planes bombard the desert ruins, the explosion, which holds the Guinness record, took 8 months to be made, more than principal filming took! Also, the planes used while filming in fact bombarded the set, as explosives detonated for the massive explosion. Seems Michael Bay enjoyed the high budget of this film.
In one shot from the Predator's camera, we see a shot recycled from the first Transformers film of the desert attack.
When Optimus Prime is being rebuilt/upgraded using parts from Jetfire, you can see a brief glimpse of R2D2 coming off of Jetfire (only visible for about 1 second, thus slow-mode should be used to see it, and it is permitted to use slow motion for trivia).
When Sam and Mikaela are running through the pillars to meet up with Optimus Prime there is a Decepticon that almost gets his head blown off. If you slow it down frame by frame on his right arm is says T1000. A little play on the Terminator. (DVD commentary.)
The dog that Mikaela has in the garage that she calls Bones, is actually Michael Bay's dog, and Bones is his real name.
When Sam starts drawing the symbols in his room, the first poster he draws on is for Bad Boys 2, another Michael Bay film.
This film started shooting one day after the first film won the MTV Movie Award for Best Movie.
