Corrected entry: The Primes tell Sam to merge the Matrix with Optimus's spark. That would be impossible, seeing as how Megatron thrust his claw through Prime's spark core during the forest battle, causing a massive explosion and Prime's death.

Correction: While Megatron did spear Prime through the chest, he didn't kill Prime outright. As seen with Megatron, there are various stages of death with Transformers and Megatron and Prime were in whats called Stasis Lock. Without a source of power to revive them they would eventually die but their spark still existed. By Sam using the power of the Matrix to repower Prime, he was able to live. We also never specificly see Primes spark extingushed, which means its it existed in some sort of suspended form.

Corrected entry: At the beginning of the film, when the cavemen are running around, the sub-title states that it's "17000 AD" instead of the correct "BC".

Correction: I've seen this film seven times and it correctly states "17,000 BC". You may need to look closer.

Corrected entry: When Jetfire is in robot mode, white sidewinder missiles can be seen on his legs. Sr22's don't have any weapons.

Correction: First, Jetfire is a SR-71 not SR22. But after seeing this film again and even inspecting stills from the movie there are no missiles on Jetfire's legs. The "missiles" you see are just various parts that have come together in his robot mode that look like a tube with fins on it, but it is not a missile. A Sidewinder is an all white missile and the parts you see are from various parts of his aircraft mode and are various colors.

Corrected entry: Blackout is in the fight scene between Optimus, Starscream and Megatron in the woods, and has his face ripped apart by Optimus. But he was quite killed by aircraft fire and a rocket launcher in the final battle of the first film. This is definitely Blackout, and makes no sense.

Correction: This character is NOT Blackout. His name is Grindor and he used the same alt mode as Blackout. His head has an entirely different design than Blackout.

Corrected entry: In the first movie, the Allspark Cube fell to Earth over a thousand years ago. In the second movie, it explains that the Transformers have been on Earth for about the same time (if not longer). If the Transformers have been on Earth for over a thousand years, why didn't they recover the Allspark Cube then?

Correction: First, plain and simple they weren't looking for it. As we've seen, when transformers look for a specific energy signature, they tend to ignore all other signatures. Also the Seekers as they're known, may have been in a dormant period (as Jetfire was) and not know the Cube was lost to Earth. While we see there were active Seekers in the late 19th and early 20th century, they weren't looking for the Cube and they had no knowledge it was here. Why would you look for something you didn't know was here in the first place?

Corrected entry: The Matrix of Leadership only collapses to dust when Sam touches it. If the Matrix was indeed locked off for thousands of years, it would've collapsed the minute Bumblebee blasted the tomb open. Simmons even says that the sudden burst of air caused the key to collapse.

Brad

Correction: Simmons was simply assuming the fresh air after years of being sealed caused the Matrix to fall to dust. Bumblebee shooting the wall and the air had nothing to do with the Matrix disintigrating. As is later revealed, the reason the Matrix disintigrated was because Sam had not "earned" the Matrix in the eyes of the Primes, something he did when he put his life on the line for Optimus. As the Primes said in Sam's vision, "The Matrix must be EARNED, not found".

Corrected entry: The Autobots and Decepticons apparently require air (vaporous puffs of breath when speaking, labored breathing when in distress, etc.), yet can still fly through hard vacuum when the plot requires them to.

JayK

Correction: This was listed, then corrected for the first mvie. Transformers mimic whatever lifeform they blend with so breathing, talking, etc. while not neccessary, is mimicked so they are able to blend and connect with whatever lifeforms they encounter.

Corrected entry: At the end of the first film, the remains of Megatron and the other Decepticons were sunk to great depths because the pressure and freezing temperatures (to which Transformers are vulnerable) will prevent the remains from being recovered. Yet this was completely ignored in this movie, with the Decepticons diving in to retrieve and revive Megatron.

Correction: In the Prequel Comic to the first movie, it's explained that Megatron was frozen because his Energon reserves were low afer traveling from Cybertron to Earth. A fully functional and charged Transformer can still withstand the cold and depth. That was a wrong assumption on the Secretary of Defense that no one would be able to retrieve or revive them.
