Transformers mistakes..

[blakkguam]

The Air Force One on the ground is not a proper version of the Airforce One. Air Force One is a VC-25 while the aircraft depicted in the movie is a KC-135. Granted it took me to view the movie umpteen times to catch it, but nevertheless, I caught it. :):):):)

Did you really think they were going to let the production film on AF1?

[blakkguam]

No, however it was something that I just happened to notice and any Boeing 747 with a repaint would have done the job. I know it costs money but it jumped out at me after AF1 was on the ground. I notice that the nacelles for the engines were smaller then the pylons were not right then to few landing gear then the refueling boom and i was like holy *****. I wonder if im the first to notice and comment on it tho.......................:confused:

[Trigger Mike]

You, my friend, are in the VAST minority. Most people who watch this film will never ever be bothered by this. At the end of the day, Transformers is a work of fiction and not a documentary.

Good catch, but this isn't a big deal at all.

[blakkguam]

im not bothered at all, i just feel dumb that being an airplane buff, it took me to $26.99, and watching them movie so many times before catching it. but youre wrong its not a good movie, this is a GREAT movie. at the end of the day you left me, and i bet others pissed off that we have to wait for the next installment, but thats a good thing.

[elemental fantasy]

Whats funny is when they scramble the f-22 Raptors at the end they show two f-16's taking off instead. WTF*&%^#????? Big screw up right there!

Also, why didnt they use f-35 lightning? Those bad bitches bury the f-22 in EVERY way!!!

[blakkguam]

ok i guess elemental didnt see listen to the Mike Bays commentary. the military kept it real......F-35's are not in service, unless you know something i dont, and if you do, you shouldnt have revealed it..............

Well, allow me to retort. Actually because of flight problems out of the country ANY winged aircraft that carries the President is designated AirForce1. It could be a B737 or a Leer but the name will be AirForce1. Same goes for Marine. :D <---$#!% eating grin

[darthrage]

guys, he's not a bad person for pointing this out. Its quite normal and kinda fun to notice mistakes. The movie (like many others) are full of legitimate mistakes. Thats not the only one that is caught.

It doesn't make it any less of a film.

I could name 2 or 3 more but I haven't mentioned it because people who defend the film take it offensivesly.

I love the film regardless and never even noticed them in the 9 times I saw the film in the theaters nor did I really even care to look even if someone mentioned it to me.

[Double]

I caught one too, turns out that Transformers don't exist! they were just really good CGI. J/K

Anyways, there are several mistakes in the movie. Go to imdb and click on "goofs" for a few.

[elemental fantasy]

ok i guess elemental didnt see listen to the Mike Bays commentary. the military kept it real......F-35's are not in service, unless you know something i dont, and if you do, you shouldnt have revealed it..............Yeah, I know I suck. I havent bought the DVD yet so I cant listen to the commentary track, blockbuster only had the original version with no commentary. Man I cant wait to get that DVD.

Also, um... a large hand full of 35's are already in service and have been for a while. Just not in public service. Use comin logic on that one. Stealths were in service ten years before you even knew they existed. I think the F-35 A's were finished testing maybe 5 years ago, but thats pure speculation.

But overall, it woulda pissed off the military if he had used em, so I can see why he didnt.

[devonnewberry]

Bahah reminds me of that journalist who interviews Bay last week.

[xAgonyxScenex]

i hope ppl arent seriously defending against this guy...he pointed out a silly mistake cause he's a plane buff....not sure where the problem was. :confused:

[magjipro]

Here is another mistake, when Sam was in the room looking for the glasses, the power was supposed to be out because rachet knocked out the cable in the neighborhood, but when the parents are in his room and the father looks outside and the autobots hide, all the lights for the house is on, even the hanging china balls! It was magic!

Anyways in the end it made the shoot look better and in almost every movie you can find mistakes, all the matters is the movie is good, and if a movie is so good that you watch it enough times to find the mistakes, then big deal.

[darthrage]

actually i'm glad that error was there cuz i'd hate for that scene to be in the dark :D

it was meant to be

[uraydo]

Yeah I caught that the first time I watched it, but that's part of that whole thing you leave at the door when you go to watch, and I'm not queen of continuity, so I just enjoyed the show.

see, I don't like leaving things at the door. (someone might take them.) The more I watch this movie, and the more I hear people talk about it, the more I realize I shouldn't like this movie.... but I do... it's a mystery.

[uraydo]

You got to leave beliveability at the door... otherwise Harry Potter just never gets off the ground on that broom, ya know...

that is a whole different thing from a house with no electricity having the lights on.

[r-type]

that is a whole different thing from a house with no electricity having the lights on. Simple. Witwicky would seem like the type to have a backup generator. Problem solved, here's your brain check ticket. Enjoy the show....:p

[space2001]

Was just talking to my friends about this.

Outer space is way colder then the arctic circle.

Which makes no sense now on why Megatron is frozen and ddin't freeze in space.

can anyone answer this.

Since it can get to minus 455 in outer space when you get further from the sun.

Just a really big logic error there.

Just a really big logic error there.The absence of enough water (or elements comprising it) in space to "freeze" Megatron in a cocoon of ice? The same would apply to every shuttle or satellite that's up there right now if it were to have fallen in the arctic and have ice form around it over time, right?

[elemental fantasy]

One question I have, is if there damaged by heat, would entry into our atmosphere like, completely destroy them??? They must have had some kinda outer shell that was shed upon entry that protected them from space and such.

One question I have, is if there damaged by heat, would entry into our atmosphere like, completely destroy them??? They must have had some kinda outer shell that was shed upon entry that protected them from space and such. Blunt shape of the protoform increases drag co-efficient, thus deflecting a lot of the heat load.

Making my nose bleed from thinking too hard....:p

[trashcollector]

When Michaela ditches Sam to fix his car by himself after he asks her why she hangs out with Trent, both of the doors and the hood were open. But when Sam succeeds in starting the car back up, the door that Michaela left open was closed. Did anybody catch that?

Bumblebee shut it.

[Bumblebee1983]

I actually caught a lot, but the one thing that bugs me:

Is Archibald Witwicky Sam's grandfather or great-grandfather? I'm thinking great-grandfather because that's what he first refers to him as, but then when OP mentions Archibald in the alley, Sam says "My grandfather."

*shakes head*

That just bugs me, I don't know why.

And where in the heck was Jazz at the beginning of the scene in Sam's backyard? He disappeared, then reappeared. Weird.

[Mech_1000]

When Sam was at school leaving class--his teacher said there might be a pop quiz tomorrow. They forgot about his school obligations :p

"Ok your out of jail, take the rest of the day off and think about what you've done."
....
"Ok your out of jail now get your *** to school and we will deal with this afterwards."

[autobot2007]

editing aside, Id like to inform of some things that could of been better in my view... after watching TF a few times.


1. Frenzy walking off the aircraft without being spotted was kind of dont know, could of been directed better..

2. Bumblebee leaving barricade after the battle? someone would notice a robot mustang, this could be explained by sec7 getting rid of it i guess

3. action man commando taking the bike down and sliding to knock blackout to the ground without any injury? They should of let the humans use a construction crane or whatever to knock him out or let the dude run under and do a luke skywalker, throw a thermal detonator at blackout while navigating through with the bike, to get up from that without your skin tearing off is a bit miraculous

4. Brute force attack mentioned by the hacker? breaking in would not be so simple as a supercomputer with brute force, brute force is quite a primitive tool. I'd say NSA systems would only grant 3 passwords anyway before being locked out, and along with that some form of hardware authentication. thumbprint /retina scanning security authentication. Ive worked in high security areas before your not going to even be able to run a tool to hack the network, should of left no mention of that, in my view. But I guess we get the point,

all in all film is good compared to other new films and does stand out more then the crap out there:), Bay was a match for this project, The music works well, using the similar composing from The Rock? Hans Zimmer or Steve Jablonsky, awesome for soundtracks. I know bay is known as a popcorn director from some, but he can improve in my opinion, the film is good, just giving constructive criticism of things that can be improved.

[Double]

Something I noticed, that's not so much a mistake, it just doesn't make sense, is when Archibald Discovers Megatron in the ice, Megatron's Wrist is on fire. Doesn't really make sense since he crashed there 10,000 years ago.

[Double]

Here is another mistake, when Sam was in the room looking for the glasses, the power was supposed to be out because rachet knocked out the cable in the neighborhood, but when the parents are in his room and the father looks outside and the autobots hide, all the lights for the house is on, even the hanging china balls! It was magic!


If you listen closely you can hear Sam's Mom say "Hey, the lights are back on"

[Shadow]

Whats funny is when they scramble the f-22 Raptors at the end they show two f-16's taking off instead. WTF*&%^#????? Big screw up right there!

Also, why didnt they use f-35 lightning? Those bad bitches bury the f-22 in EVERY way!!!
F-35 Lightning II:-

(1) Clear Superiority in A2A missions over all existing fighter aircrafts.
(2) Ultimate penetration strike capability.
(3) Better range than the F-22.
(4) Good payload and bomb trucking ability when stealth is not needed.
(5) Best overall sensor and networking package than any fighter including the F-22.
(6) Most advanced next generation pilot interface and situational awareness aids in the world.
(7) $45~60 million unit cost.
(8 ) Lower maintenance and logistics footprint than ALL existing fighter aircrafts.

F-22 Raptor:-

(1) Absolute Dominance in A2A missions over all existing fighter aircrafts.
(2) Limited penetration strike capability.
(3) Worse range than the F-35.
(4) Similar payloads, but more limited ordnance selection in bomb trucking missions.
(5) Larger aperture radar than the F-35 with adequate supporting sensors and networking package.
(6) Current generation pilot interface and situational awareness aids.
(7) $120~330 million unit cost
(8 ) Reasonable maintenance and logistics foot print for a stealth aircraft.

I would say the only reason they didnt use the F-35 is because there arnt any out yet. At least any that the military is going to let anyone get close to just yet. Besides if Bay can use the F-35 in any way in TF2 that would be a good idea for Jetfire. That would be the only other Fighter that could keep up with the F-22(Starscream) next to another F-22 that is.

[autobot2007]

Thought it would be interesting to post.


Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Sam says his Great-great-grandfather made his expedition in 1897. However, when Frenzy finds the article about the expedition on Air Force One, the newspaper article had a date of 1895.
Factual errors: Glenn Morshower's character is referred to in the closing credits as 'SOCCENT Sergeant'. However, when we actually see him (in the film's opening scenes), he is clearly a Colonel: he wears the rank insignia of a Colonel, and is referred to as Colonel by his subordinates.
Continuity: In the beginning of the film when Captain Lennox is talking with his wife over the computer, the exact type of computer changes between shots.
Continuity: When Sam is running from Barricade and hits Mikaela who is riding a moped they fall on the ground and the moped is clearly visible laying next to them on the ground. In the next shot they zoom out and the moped is nowhere to be seen.
Miscellaneous: When the helicopter 4500X is contacted by the military it is told to "squawk, ident and proceed..." though no squawk number is assigned. With civilian aircraft a squawk command is normally followed by a 4 digit transponder number assigned by air traffic control to uniquely identify the aircraft on radar.
Crew or equipment visible: When Sam is running away from his car on the girl's bike and hits the broken sidewalk you can clearly see his double is the one that actually falls over the front of the bike.
Continuity: When Optimus Prime and Bonecrusher are fighting, they fall from a bridge onto a highway. A car with a mother and child swerves in order to avoid hitting the Transformers, and ends up at an angle, so that in order for the mother and son to see the Transformers they would have to look out of the passenger window. After the cut scene of them swerving to the side, the camera (from inside the vehicle) shows the Transformers fighting right in front of the front windshield.
Crew or equipment visible: When Sam Witwicky arrives at the party, the camera crane can be briefly seen as a shadow.
Continuity: When Sam and Mikaela are in the older version of the Bumblebee/Camaro, there are insert shots of the odometer and gages/dashboard which are actually from the updated Camaro.
Revealing mistakes: During the first ride that Mikaela takes in Sam's car, both windows are obviously down during their conversation. Yet, neither one has any wind blowing on them. Their hair never moves.
Errors in geography: In the beginning, during the Qatar scenes, you can see mountains in the background. The country of Qatar has no mountains and the highest elevation is 295 feet above sea level.
Factual errors: The uniforms worn by Captain Lennox's team have patches on their right shoulders from the 82nd Airborne "All Americans" Division, indicating they served with the 82nd in combat. The "Airborne" tab has been incorrectly replaced with a "Ranger" tab. The "Ranger" tab is worn above the "Airborne" tab on the left shoulder when deployed with the unit and it is not used on the right shoulder.
Crew or equipment visible: As Ron drives Sam past the Porsche dealership, the reflection of the camera car filming them is briefly visible on the dealership's windows.
Continuity: When in the air, Air Force One is a 747. On the ground, however, it is suddenly a KC-135 painted to look like Air Force One. You can see the refueling boom when Barricade pulls up.
Revealing mistakes: In the city fight scene, a large piece of a building falls onto the left side of the street, yet when a citizen passes by (and probably accidentally kicks it) the piece appears to move as if it weighed nothing.
Factual errors: Twice in the movie, the soldiers radio aircraft that they are releasing smoke of a given color. This is contrary to standard military practice which is for people on the ground to release colored smoke without saying what color it is and for the aircraft to state the color of the smoke. The people releasing the smoke then confirm that they have indeed released the specified color of smoke. This is done to avoid having an enemy listening in deceive the aircraft by releasing smoke of the same color in a different location.
Crew or equipment visible: When they go to the lake party a cameraman is visible in Mikaela's boyfriend's truck's mirror.
Continuity: After all landlines and cell phones are to be shutdown, people in the background of the fight scene in the city are seen using their cellphones.
Continuity: Mikaela's nail polish appears and disappears.
Continuity: When Bumblebee locks in Sam and Mikaela, the locks are seen to lower so that they are almost flush with the top of the door frame. However, in the next shot of Sam, the door lock is sticking up above the door quite a bit.
Continuity: When Sam leaves his house with the Transformers he is carrying his brown jumper. The scene then changes to him talking with the Transformers and he has his brown jumper on. Then the angle changes, and he has his jumper over his shoulder again.
Continuity: The amount of donut on Glen's plate while he and Maggie were in the interrogation room keeps changing. After Glen eats the donuts and finishes, only half of a donut remains. But when the FBI agents walk in, it can clearly be seen that there is one and a half donuts on the plate. And when the agent slides the plate to the center of the table, there is only a half donut on the plate again.
Revealing mistakes: In the scene in Qatar where the scorpion-like robot is attacking the soldiers, there are two main explosions. Closer examination reveals that it is the exact same explosion used twice.
Continuity: At Hoover Dam when Sam is talking to Simmons about how he wants his car, his parents, and Mikaela's record erased, the giant clock behind Simmons skips about 5-7 minutes in a matter of seconds indicating several takes.
Factual errors: When the SpecOps team calls in the gunship during the battle with Scorponok, they use the call sign "Spooky Three Two". "Spooky" is a designation given only to AC-130U gunships. The gunship shown was an AC-130H Pave Spectre, which should have gone by "Spectre".
Factual errors: When the gunship rolls in on Scorponok, the special effects show gunfire coming from the forward part of the gunship. The aircraft shown is an AC-130H Pave Spectre, which has not carried armament in the forward compartments for many years now. Further to that the request was for 105mm howitzer shells, the rate of fire from both weapons is more indicative of the 25mm cannon from an AC-130U interlaced with the occasional 40mm Bofors round.
Continuity: In the scene where Sam's Camaro is stalking him and he is fleeing on his bike, he ultimately flips his bike and crashes. Soon thereafter you see the black and white Decepticon police cruiser. On the side of the black and white police car, the lettering "POLICE" is in stencil format. In a following scene the stencil lettering is now completely filled-in in gold.
Crew or equipment visible: During the footage of the Autobots and the Military heading toward the city, the camera vehicle can be glimpsed reflected in the front bumper of Optimus Prime.
Continuity: After Sam chases Bumblebee to the dumpster area, he is recording himself using his cell phone. When looking closely, it is clear that the cell phone is on the welcome page and not in camera mode.
Factual errors: The Volkswagen Beetle at Bobby Bolivia's car lot has a year model tag saying 71. However, the Beetle has a curved windshield which was not introduced until 1973.
Continuity: After the power goes out when Sam and his parents are talking in his bedroom, you can see a desk light, a bathroom/closet light and the computer are all on.
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): When the F-22 intercepts the helicopter 4500X the audio pronounces the tail number as "forty five hundred x-ray." Aviation standards require most numbers be pronounced individually and should have been pronounced "four five zero zero x-ray."
Continuity: In the initial fight scenes between Bumblebee and Barricade. There will be a time when Barricade is backed up against the camera (facing away from the camera.) Notice the gap of the wheel well. It's huge! There is no rear right wheel. Director's commentary stated they had some problems with the mustangs.
Continuity: When driving the tow truck in the final scene, Mikaela dramatically hits a garbage can which disappears when she stops the vehicle.
Crew or equipment visible: When the Special Forces squad is fighting against the scorpion robot during the second aerial attack with "105 shells" the camera pans across the squad, and the shadow of the camera can be seen.
Revealing mistakes: SPOILER: In the fight between Megatron and Optimus Prime, there is a yellow Pontiac GTO shown for a second before it is torn in half. Before its destruction, the GTO's rocker panel is clearly already in two pieces which are not properly attached to the vehicle.
Continuity: SPOILER: At the big fight scene where the Autobots and the Decepticons are fighting in the street. Mikaela hot wires a truck to transport BumbleBee. When she hot wires the car, it clearly has an automatic gearshift. Later in the scene where Mikaela is driving and bumblebee is shooting, the car has manual gears. Seen where she gears down to drive faster.
Continuity: SPOILER: When Bumblebee takes the car over, after Sam picks up Mikaela and parks, she opens the door to go look under the hood. You can clearly see in the foreground of the shot that there's a black mark on the passenger side door/fender. It disappears in the next shot and is never seen again.
Factual errors: SPOILER: The corpses of defeated Decepticons are dropped into the Laurentian Abyss (27,651 ft) by the U.S. Armed Forces. However, the film erroneously states that the abyss is the deepest point on Earth; the actual deepest point is the Marianas Trench (35,798 ft) in the Pacific Ocean.
Continuity: SPOILER: When Mikaela Banes runs to Sam Witwicky before he runs to the building to pass the cube off to the helicopter. When she is telling Sam that she is glad she got in the car with him, Bumble Bee is no longer harnessed down on the tow truck.
Revealing mistakes: SPOILER: During the chase on the highway, one tourist bus is hit by Bonecrusher and splits in two, revealing that there are no seats.

[Mech_1000]

I cant for the life of me find any of the "Crew or Equipment Visible" mistakes.

[Bumblebee1983]

Most of those are just too technical that I could care less about. :p

Like the Air Force One bit, the Military logos, etc.

All in all, the movie is just friggin' awesome and I could care less about those mistakes.

[brAnd7onX]

all i really have to say is wowwwwwwwwwww................. get a life.... please??? all of if not most of those mistakes are so minimal that I think anyone besides you could care less.

[r-type]

To his credit, it appears that they were cut and pasted from IMDB's goofs section.

[xXRavenXx]

Well some of those things are just not right. The Abyss vs Mariana is simple. The abyss is a large almost deep water lake... easy target to drop something in other than a trench that is about as wide as the grand canyon. In the long run I'm with R-type it's IMDB... crazy stuff. We need to run a tab of their errors... that would take too long though :D.

[Bumblebee1983]

To his credit, it appears that they were cut and pasted from IMDB's goofs section.

Yup. Different viewers compile the mistakes and put them on IMDB. However, I don't think IMDB checks for their verification, so a lot of it may be speculation.

[autobot2007]

it was from Imdb , not me,

[Bumblebee1983]

it was from Imdb , not me,

I figured that. :)

Interesting nonetheless though.

[Z28 Autobot]

Continuity: When Sam and Mikaela are in the older version of the Bumblebee/Camaro, there are insert shots of the odometer and gages/dashboard which are actually from the updated Camaro.


Would like to know where this one is???

watch where samand his dad are gonna get sam a car.. when they drive
past a glass you'll see the light they used you can't miss it

[yoco]

@magatron42 I'm looking for that mistake always, but I don't see it.

[megatron42]

does anyone have a pic

[megatron42]

yoco here's from youtube
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOLHu061F00
at 13 or 14 second look closely at the glass you'll see the camera light

[Bumblebee1983]

where in the hell was Jazz in the backyard scene? He came in a little later, but wasn't there immediately.

Did he pull into the wrong driveway? Was he even in the caravan? Damnit, I've only watched this movie 10 times...:mad: You think I would have noticed it.

Ah, well, just another excuse to watch it again. :p

And where were the Autobots hiding when Sector 7's guys came into the picture? In the novel, it says they're behind some trees, but it's hard for giant robots to hide, unless in car form. :o

My dear, ya gots to understand that these boys just wanted to make some extra cash on a book... But, yea you're right... I can't seen it either. They must have changed it.

[Bumblebee1983]

Yeah....the editing has it's problems with the film.

[TreyTable]

Wow, that's quite a list. I take it you have the HD-DVD version, to pick out those details? Or you're just really smucking-fart. (That's a compliment)

[barricade505]

the only thing i saw wrong the first time was when Optimus Prime had the glasses.He scanned them and stated, that the allspark cube was X amount of miles away.at the dam,right?well when sam's grandfather met megatron,meggie marked the glasses with the location of the allspark cube.The hoover dam was built later to protect it's location by the president.why would the glasses indicate the allspark to be at the hoover dam?:confused:...in other words, the damn was not there before nor was the allspark cube.it was moved there and hidden....the first guy to post this should go to school for editing....and stop wasting time!!its obvious that these mistakes must be found by watching over and again.that takes away from any movie i think......still loved the movie though......

[nathan alexander]

Try Pearl Harbor or Titanic... When Ben Affleck waves goodbye to Kate Beckinsale outside the Hotel in New York, his scarf disappears... then reappears...:confused: there are so many HUGE mistakes in that movie. In Titanic, watch Billy Zane getting out of the car in Southampton... he looks up to see the ship... It's supposed to be directly in front of him. But if you look behind the car, you see a huge metallic shape, undoubtedly the Titanic, which means he was looking at nothing!!! I haven't heard anyone mention that one before. It doesn't spoil the magic tho, there are guaranteed to be editing errors in big films.

[raddimus]

whoever found all these mistakes needs to work on the next film,but I do agree as well that most of these mistakes are technical and so hard to notice that theres nearly no reason to even point out there existence.

[Bumblebee1983]

The Hoover Dam was built around the Cube.
Tom Banachek - "President Hoover built the dam around the Cube to hide it's energy.."

[Bumblebee1983]

The Hoover Dam was built around the Cube.
Tom Banachek - "President Hoover built the dam around the Cube to hide it's energy.."

The dam was not built in the Arctic Circle. ;)

But wait, I see what you're saying now....the Cube was originally in the area the Hoover Dam was built. Ahhh....okay, I gotcha.

wouldn't it be funny if the spark was real

[Bumblebee1983]

wouldn't it be funny if the spark was real

Trust me, I've been to Hoover Dam and there is no huge alien robot in the basement...

Oh wait...that was when I was younger and before this movie came out. Maybe I oughta go back and do some scouting, hopefully not get in trouble by the feds. :p

And maybe that big groan in the air was Megatron grumbling, not the actual dam working. ;)

[Shadow]

the only thing i saw wrong the first time was when Optimus Prime had the glasses.He scanned them and stated, that the allspark cube was X amount of miles away.at the dam,right?well when sam's grandfather met megatron,meggie marked the glasses with the location of the allspark cube.The hoover dam was built later to protect it's location by the president.why would the glasses indicate the allspark to be at the hoover dam?:confused:...in other words, the damn was not there before nor was the allspark cube.it was moved there and hidden....the first guy to post this should go to school for editing....and stop wasting time!!its obvious that these mistakes must be found by watching over and again.that takes away from any movie i think......still loved the movie though......


Whoa! Good one! I didn't even catch that one. :)


The Hoover Dam was built around the Cube.
Tom Banachek - "President Hoover built the dam around the Cube to hide it's energy.."


The dam was not built in the Arctic Circle. ;)

But wait, I see what you're saying now....the Cube was originally in the area the Hoover Dam was built. Ahhh....okay, I gotcha.Ok i could be wrong and ill have to go back yet again and watch the movie but I think i remember that the cube landed in the Colorado River and the Hoover Dam was built on the Colorado River to protect the cube's power not from the President but from outside invaders. Megatron was moved from the Artic to the dam to protect him from the Russians. The cube never moved.

No one's talking about hiding it from the president, I think you need to reread the quote :)

[barricade505]

alright so it did crash land in the colorado river.o.k. they did build the dam to hide the mega man and cube....but when hiding something,why did they hide it under a dam where it was at.and bring the mega man to the dam as well?doesn't seem protocal to me.....i'm calling sector 7 headquarters.....(I'm sorry, the number you have reached has been disconnected or is no longer in service,please hang up and try your call again....).....oh well:rolleyes:

I know, I know....but then there wouldn't be a movie, now would there?

And seriously, I have got to learn to swallow my drinks before I read your posts or you're going to owe me a new computer. ;)

[megatron42]

isn't mega man a game

[Bumblebee1983]

isn't mega man a game

I was thinking that same thing, but for the life of me, I can't picture what it was about.

[StefsChemicalRomance]

Thought it would be interesting to post.
Crew or equipment visible: When Sam is running away from his car on the girl's bike and hits the broken sidewalk you can clearly see his double is the one that actually falls over the front of the bike


Now thats ive read that - it is soo obvious lol. He hits the ground, and his head bounces up and looks like he loks straight at the camera for a split second lol!

[raddimus]

I was thinking that same thing, but for the life of me, I can't picture what it was about.

yhea it is a game it had a little blue anime looking guy called mega man

[barricade505]

hey in the 2nd disk Animated version,sams grandfather calls megatron the mega man.

[Double]

After Shia and Megan are rescued from S7 and Sam makes a comment about her being good with handcuffs, he puts his sweater on, then when he walks over to Question the S7 guys he has the sweater on his shoulder.

[mrmac33]

Was just talking to my friends about this.

Outer space is way colder then the arctic circle.

Which makes no sense now on why Megatron is frozen and ddin't freeze in space.

can anyone answer this.

Since it can get to minus 455 in outer space when you get further from the sun.

Just a really big logic error there.

Just now taking the time to rifle through these old posts, so if this has been addressed - please ignore me.

I think there was something in one of the prequel books/comics (not sure which) about Megs being pretty depleted from his hunt for the Cube; so when he crashed in the arctic, he couldn't even fend off the cold of the tundra. I think that just adds to Megs being such a dick - he was so close to his life's purpose, only to run out (or nearly run out) of enough energy on this "disgusting" world so very, very close to his goal. Few million years of frustration would suck, no?

I personally figured he was running low on energon,lol,and hit earths orbit at a bad angle being low on energy....wait this makes no sense when he wakes up or unfreezes hes got plenty of energy.maby while traveling through space his thrusts keep him heated but crashing..lmao,you got me

[StefsChemicalRomance]

Theres no water, CO2 etc atoms in space that can freeze lol..

[raddimus]

lol good point stef

[yoco]

I don't know if this is a mistake, but how did Megatron learn english so fast? His first words were "I am Megatron".

[raddimus]

lol. I do know this movie. I am legend is badass though,I'm watching it right now.

[Massani]

here's one.

when ratchet transforms his wheels fly off his arms and onto his back.

also, heres another one. Jazz jumping around like a black monkey character and raping the old char.

[raddimus]

lmao, what jazz jumped around like a monky and then preceeded to rape a car,lol,I missed that part.

[Bumblebee1983]

I don't know if this is a mistake, but how did Megatron learn english so fast? His first words were "I am Megatron".

He's been in cryostasis and I assumed he learned it from the guys around him.

Also, he may have just had to make his point of saying "I'm not MBE1, I AM MEGATRON!"

Picky picky....and I'm also pretty sure he hacked into their network to learn english much like Prime and the Autobots did on their arrival.

[raddimus]

lol,oh that internet. Hey bee you want a link to free movies. I just watched I am legend, and can't say enough about it,freakin good movie.

[megatron42]

they musta hooked megatron to a computer and downloaded everything to him

[Double]

I don't know if this is a mistake, but how did Megatron learn english so fast? His first words were "I am Megatron".

Well they do communicate Wirelessly, and both Starscream and Barricade obvioulsy new english.

[Bumblebee1983]

lol,oh that internet. Hey bee you want a link to free movies. I just watched I am legend, and can't say enough about it,freakin good movie.

I just got back from seeing it.

DAMN. I love Will Smith.

[raddimus]

yhea I thought he did a great job in the movie. I just watched a movie called sunshine,it was really good too, Igot a link to all the movies you could ever want if they don't have it you just put in a request and some one will post it. Normally you can see all the movies before there released but some are better off to see in the theaters.Like transformers etc. If you want the link just hollar.

Dude, you may not want to make that public knowledge and all. *whispers* It's called pirating and it's illegal.

Just fair warning. :)

And I'll wait for the theaters, even though it's very hard waiting for Indy 4 and the Dark Knight.

[megatron42]

bee there is a site you can watch tv shows for free... ones that has been taken off air

[Bumblebee1983]

Yeah, but those currently aren't in production and whoever wrote them doesn't have the rights to them anymore.

Something like that. Maybe the copyright has run out (or is that 50 years from the death of the writer...) Damn, I must go through my media law book again as a refresher.

And to bring up a present-day point, this is why the writer's are on strike. They make no money from those types of Web sites. They do deserve credit though.

But the writer's strike doesn't pertain to those shows that have been cancelled, or have been for some years now.

[raddimus]

lol, I'm not downloading them. Just watching. The site doesn't post em either
yhea I'm not breaking any copyright laws, and I will still go see movies in the theatres. I don't want to be a pirate I don't want to be a pirate, just a normal little boy, lol, but thanks for the advice bee. Oh yhea whats indy 4?oh just came to me indiana jones,yhea can't wiat to see that. did you see the darknight trailer, right before Iam legend. It looked pretty good.

[Bumblebee1983]

Ahhh, okay, gotcha. :) We're on the same page now.

Yes, Indy 4. I'm waiting with baited breath for that preview.

And the Dark Knight trailer seriously had me excited at the theater. Good God does Heath take the Joker to a new level...

[raddimus]

he reminded me kinda of the jack nicholson joker with his laugh. I was hoping they would do a joker like in batman dead end. You guys seen that movie? but heath looks like he gonna be a great joker. When I first heard he was gonna be the joker, I thought no way, broke back/ the guy from a knights tale,lol. but I admit he looks like he might make a pretty good joker.

Yup, I thought the same thing too.

Umm...oh yes, TF mistakes.....back on topic *shakes head*

God I haven't watched this movie in like FOREVER, sooo I must do that. I'm having withdrawals. :(

[megatron42]

why am i the only one when sam and his dad go look at cars you can see the

I saw it too dude. :)

[raddimus]

I think I actually pointed that out to my little brother too. I need to watch the movie again. maby I'll watch it today

[Mindfreak87]

I may get done for posting after this long, but I am not going to start a new thread.

I recently found the site moviemistakes.com and decided to get the blu-ray out and see if I could spot any listed, there was over 100 so I just went for some for fun as personally there was only 1 I ever noticed in the movie even after several viewings.

I apologise for the quality, they are upscaled for better viewing.

Even some of the new trailers show similar things.

Funny People trailer - http://i43.tinypic.com/sl2nhe.jpg
Star Trek trailer - http://i43.tinypic.com/1214thd.jpg (In this screenshot you see strange markings in the center of the red highlight. If you watch the trailer and look in that place you see that marking moving, seems to be a scratch or something on the lense)

i don't get these ones. whats wrong w/ them??

[Mindfreak87]

The first apparently is a stunt cable attached to that wheel in the shot.
The second is ramps in which vehicles get on the sidewalk.

[Mech_1000]

Those pictures were great. Most of those I could never find myself while watching.

[megatron42]

nice find i woulda never picked those out

[Michael Do]

the arrival scene - when OP first transformed and hes head poping out and all parts come together, you can see his right arm are all blue, when all the bots transformed and prime bend down to talk to Sam, hes right arm are red/orange with flames.

This is not a mistake. How where they legally going to close an overpass?

What's funny is you didn't catch that they are driving in the wrong side of the highway. The shot was flipped IIRC for creative license.

I live the the UK, that is the correct side over here so naturally I dismissed that :p

[Jammed9000]

Cant believe I didnt notice that.
If you heard Bay's commentary, he points it out.

[Mech_1000]

I did watch the commentary, twice lol.

[5 Star General]

Something I noticed, that's not so much a mistake, it just doesn't make sense, is when Archibald Discovers Megatron in the ice, Megatron's Wrist is on fire. Doesn't really make sense since he crashed there 10,000 years ago.
that happen when some of his fellow men lamp fell into the hole broke i guess...its funny that meg eyes didnt freeze...if u look closely u'll see it moved when he imprinted the location on the guy glasses--his whole eyes powered up ,,turned..couldnt meg scream something..?

[5 Star General]

.megan open bumblebee hood to see an advance engine--yet she knew how it works--or maybe he just did that to preven alarm---but couldnt he had jus mimic an old engine

[5 Star General]

BIGGEST MISTAKE OF ALL----- maybe it was mentioned before

Frenzy touched the cube and repair himself- simmons created a decep--- the cube transformed a m dew machine ... X box- etc---- bumblebee touched it--- resize it.. but still counldt speak then-- the little piece optimus saved revived that robot from the alliance comic book---- but for some reason BB still can't speak properly in ROTF---- radio saves $$$$ huh--

The AllSpark is not to be played with. decepticons are cheap and they want to cheat death by healing themselves using the Allspark. The Autobots obviously dont want to use it for anything but to protect it.
BB finds it Immoral to heal himself by using the energy from the Allspark. He'd rather let the old fashion way of healing. Its like when you do an exam, your only cheating yourself if you look at someone elses answers. You dont learn anything from cheating.
You learn by doing the hard yards.

learning is good because Knowledge is power!!
