Directed by: Michael Bay
Starring: John Turturro, Shia LaBeouf, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, Megan Fox, Peter Cullen
Other mistake: In one of the beginning scenes, the time at the bottom says that it is 22:00, which means it would be 10pm in China. In the scene, it is bright daylight, not night time as it should be. (00:02:15)
Other mistake: In the deli's basement, Wheelie shows places on a map of America where Seekers are hiding. Agent Simmons states that the closest is in Washington D.C., but the closest marked on the map is in the middle of New Jersey, near Philadelphia.
Continuity mistake: The Saturn that Mikaela is driving has a moonroof that encompasses most of the roof, over the front and back seats. When the Decepticon Grindor captures them, in the interior shot looking up at Leo as Grindor seizes the Saturn, the car has a solid roof over Leo, which is also seen in the interior shot as they fall. (00:54:05 - 00:55:05)
Optimus Prime: Sam, fate rarely calls upon at a moment of our choosing.
Sma Witwicky: You're Optimus Prime, you don't need me.
Optimus Prime: We do, more than you know.
Trivia: 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.
Question: Sam says that the Energon source is before the Autobots. So to find it they need to talk to a Decepticon. Wheelie is the first one at hand, but how does he know about the source, let alone the Seekers, what they look like and where they are? He doesn't look like he is as old as Jetfire, and as he puts it, "Nobody tell me nothin".
Chosen answer: He knows from stories passed down to him from older generations of bots, not much unlike stories about the past passed down to us from our ancestors. His line about no one telling him anything is just a way to avoid being put back in the box or being tortured by Mikayla.
