    Sounds like in the beginning all surviving Autobots and Decepticons have either left Earth or been in hiding. That could explain Optimus' new robot mode. Maybe the synopsis from the Michigan Film Office was correct since we know humans are messing with Transformer tech?
    Also Kelsey Grammar is the "non-robot big bad." Sounds like they are keeping the main Decepticons a secret, unless of course the print edition reveals more.

    I'm going to go ahead and guess that the transformer mark discovers is the rusty truck or a dinobot

    I'm telling you guys, the rusty truck is obviously Optimus in hiding.

    If it were a snake, it would have bit you.

    There are many ways to bring a TF back online. The AllSpark was just one of many of these ways. You guys need to think G1. And was there a pic of the SOG soldier trying to capture OP? I have not heard any SOG name mentioned so this is new to me. SOG was a advanced U.S military organization from the Vietnam war lol

    Special Operations Group.

    It got founded around the time of the Vietnam War, but whomever provided that "spoiler" must only have info gleaned from what other characters around them are saying and not the whole script, because that makes no sense.

    It's still around, though the acronyms have been shuffled around somewhat. We in the military like to shuffle acronyms - it makes it look like we did something new.

    You know in the first movie, "SOCCENT" air base? That's not the name of the air base, that's "special operations command center" in military speak.

    So unless the entire United States special forces community has gone rogue and split off from the actual military, that spoiler about SOG doesn't mean anything. It's just something written by some random staffer at that magazine who doesn't know anything and heard SOG said during some interview and is vomiting it back out, with no context.

    More likely explanation: The members of this anti-transformer group are all EX-special forces. IE: ex-SOG, even though the acronym SOG isn't really in use anymore.

    I understand that there is many other ways to revive a transformer, I'm talking in terms of the movie universe it self, not the G1 or the Unicorn trilogy. For me I think it's fine if the shows so many multiplies ways of reviving a character, but doing it in a movie multiple times is a bit of stretch. I don't want something like the *Insert Matrix into Transform*, and boom! He's alive, something more on the lines like Megatron from RoTF where they took other 'cons and just put him back together, with the all spark shard.

    Could be anything. For all we know, the AllSpark itself was just a part of a larger something.
    The AllSpark cube could have been a smaller cube from something larger or it could be something like vector sigma or Teletran-1 or any number of things. Remember, while the movie verse is its onlwn universe, it pulls from all the others for content.

    Japanese transformer CEO? Does that mean there are a separate group of transformers who live in Japan and are safe there?
