I will go down that guy's 10 points.
1. In "Transformers," there was this giant battle in the middle of downtown Los Angeles -- excuse me, Mission City -- that was witnessed by thousands of people at the very least. But somehow the government was able to cover up the whole thing, and now the existence of alien robots is just an internet rumor? How did they do it? Pay off everyone who was there and quickly fix millions of dollars in damage? Also, didn't Keller (Jon Voight) go on TV and tell everyone we were being attacked by "a technological civilization far superior to our own"? How did they spin that?
1. I agree with this point. That big massive robot literally ran over many cars and killed dozens of humans. No covering that up.
2. There are two pieces of the Allspark cube left: the military has one under lock and key, and Sam discovers another. The Decepticons steal one and bring Megatron back to life. But when Sam (Shia LaBeouf) wants to bring back Optimus, he has to find the Matrix of Leadership on the other side of the globe. Why not use the other piece? Mikaela (Megan Fox) has it in her backpack the whole time. It brought his kitchen appliances to life, why can't it do the same for Optimus?
2. He's a moron. How are they supposed to know that that's what the piece of the allspark can do? Obviously, neither the Autobots nor Sam and crew knew that the Allspark could be re-purposed for that.
3. Speaking of Megatron's rebirth, when the Decepticons venture deep into the ocean to revive him, the Navy crew tracking them reads five contacts. When they get down there, they tear apart one of the robots for parts to rebuild Megatron. Then as they rise to the surface, the same Navy guys say they spot six contacts. The little "Doctor" robot popped out down there, but he's about a third of the size of a person. Would he have shown up on sonar?
3. Duh. The other guy wasn't killed, his legs were ripped off, that's it. We see, many times, that the removal of limbs does not kill a Transformer.
4. That reminds me: even if I were to forgive the Doctor's German accent -- and director Michael Bay is asking me to forgive a lot of ridiculous accents -- why would a robot need glasses? He has little lenses that flip in front of his mechanical eyes. Couldn't he just get his eyes adjusted? You'd think with all the laser guns, someone could perform a Lasik procedure.
4. No, as these Transformers need magnification assistance, too. It's the whole thing about bending light to make images smaller or larger. Why would he want to permanently adjust his "sight" to make everything too close up? Simple: the little dude would NOT want to do that. He would want normal vision and then increased vision during examinations. By his logic, why don't surgeons get eye surgery to permanently adjust their vision to make everything super up-close?
5. Apparently, Transformers can look like people now. How? And how is it that even though the robo-girl (Isabel Lucas) is made of metal, she can still straddle Sam without crushing him. And if Bumblebee knows something's wrong with her, why does he spit antifreeze at her instead of telling Sam? Yes, his voicebox is broken, but wasn't it fixed at the end of the last movie?
5. This is a retarded point. Very retarded. He didn't pay attention in the movie, obviously. Bumblebee was trying to prevent Sam from cheating, you moron! Ergo, the various humorous songs he was playing about cheating! DUH! You idiot.
6. The Fallen is the last of the Primes, since they all sacrificed themselves to stop him from destroying the sun. But then he says that Optimus is a descendant of the Primes. First, Transformers have kids? And second, how could he descend from them if they were all dead? And if the Fallen could only be destroyed by a Prime, why didn't the originals just gang up on him back in the day? And what makes Optimus so special, anyway? Megatron beat him earlier, but all it takes is a few spare parts from creaky old Jetfire for him to take out the Fallen?
6. Wow. This guy is a tard. Of course they have "kids". Did he miss the whole part where Megatron is literally growing many new decepticons? Or did he miss that entire point to the plot?
And only a prime could take out a Prime for some unknown reason...or it could have been like a belief system thing, similar to religion. Not because of power, but because of something inherent in their design. It could be that there's an uncontrollable "political" system in place that allows a prime to take out another prime when they go bad. And, Megatron didn't "beat him earlier" either. Optimus was taking on 3, THREE, decepticons at once! He lost to three decepticons, not one. And the originals probably did try to, but he obviously hid away or evaded them, somehow.
That part is not explained, but we do know that the only way they could avoid the matrix falling into the wrong hands was to hide it away. The Fallen had a massive army of decepticons, idiot. I guess he didn't pay attention there, either. 😐
7. Sam, Mikaela, and Simmons (John Turturro) go to the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum in Washington D.C. to find Jetfire. Then they walk out the back onto a wide open field with old planes and mountains in the distance. When did the National Mall start to look so much like to Tucson, AZ (where they really filmed that scene)?
7. Obviously, this occurred because someone like the director wanted the boneyard to be right outside the DC museum. It was a "shot" that someone didn't care if it had something so stupid. In order for someone to be that aware of the "boneyard" to put it into a shot, it was obviosly beacuse they liked it and thought it would do well for that scene. So much for getting a certain look, right? Most people are not aware of the "boneyard"'s location, so this point really doesn't matter since it was intentional.
8. The geography is just as bad when they go to Egypt. The stone city of Petra in Jordan is over 250 miles away, over mountainous terrain, [bla bla bla about wrong geography...]
8. I agree on all points, but it seems this guy lost track of "jus making a story, geographic facts be damned as it wastes too much time".
9. Sam briefly dies and goes to Robot Heaven. Robot Heaven?!?!
9. I've already explained this point a million times to a certain poster.
10. Where does Sam's bandage come from? What about his extra sock? Why does Sam's roommate not contribute anything at all? What was the Fallen doing for those thousands of years Megatron was frozen in ice? How does one satellite receive transmissions from everywhere on the planet? Why does Wheelie hump Mikaela's leg? Why do we have to see John Turturro's thong? Why are robots who join together to become Devastator also seen fighting the Army at the same time? Why does the government want only our military fighting Decepticons when our weapons seem unable to make so much as a dent on any of them? Why did the ancient Egyptians build a pyramid around the sun-destroying machines instead of just breaking it? Why is the Matrix of Leadership bigger in the Fallen's hand than in Sam's? And how do Mikaela's pants stay so clean?
10. He had bumblebee with him, the two other gangster robots, and Jetfire. I am putting my bet that in one of their vehicles was a first aid kit...you know, what you're supposed to have in your car anyway? This point is nitpicking for the sake of douchery...
His roommate got caught up in a mess that he didn't want to get caught up in. You can't complain about factual evidence being wrong because you don't understand that sometimes, plot comes before fact in a film in order to keep it interesting, while then also criticizing a portion of the plot that was due to keeping things believable.
The Fallen was chillin' in his chair, on that ship, duh.
It's a government satellite. And, since pretty much all of the "internet" is connect to just about every networked computer, directly or indirectly, all he'd have to do is use a satellite that had a link to the internet and then everything else would be accessible.
Wheelie humps her leg because that was his only way to show her, as he thought, that he liked her. He didn't understand human relations too well, so he thought that that was a the correct way to show her that he appreciated her being nice. He is an alien AI robot from outer-space, remember?
We don't. The dude is supposed to be weird, eccentric. That scene was to show you how far he was out there, while also adding comedy.
A mistake or they are clones. Duh.
You idiot. Our weapons certainly do cause them plenty of damage. Now he's just grasping.
You just made a point about our weapons being ineffective, but now you're saying that an ancient people, without ballistic technologies, should have destroyed a MASSIVE weapon? Make up your mind, idiot. And they wouldn't destroy it because they were sun worshippers and it was easier to build a large tomb for their pharaohs around the sun weapon. 🙂 (It's a stretch, I know...but it's fun.)
The matrix expands in size once a Prime holds it. 🙂 It becomes less dense, per unit volume, however, as it creates a microscopic "waffling" effect, in order to accomplish this almost instant expansion. 🙂
Mikaela's pants stay clean for the same reason that women usually wake up with their makeup perfectly done with their hair styled, etc. I guess this was the first movie he ever watched to not know something this simple. 🙂
