    Not "Flight Mech," "Flight TECH". Flight "Mech" doesn't even sound right.

    Hard to spot things? A lot of the individual bots fighting in Chicago! Like Dino charging a 'Con and stabbing him, etc.

    It's most likely "Flight Tech", though at first I thought I heard "Flight tank" but I think you're right.


    I only saw the movie once, but I think Brains has a USB connector on his hand he plugs into the printer.

    I did hear that, right before a flaming ball of something (Mudflap) comes flying out of the hangar.

    Sam calls Dylan's office the Starship Enterprise (another Star Trek reference)

    So that's not Barricade then? When the drones arrive via the space bridge and one scans a garbage truck and others scan a fire truck, someone said they saw one scan a police car. So that's not Barricade at the prisoners scene, thats a drone that just scanned a police car. It would actually make more sense to have it be a newly scanned drone than a character that has been missing for a movie and a half.

    I'm not sure if this has been posted yet, but Sentinel Prime already had his Earth body with all the fire truck bits before he came to Earth.

    Also, I never saw Sideswipe's Holo-Driver anywhere in the movie. May be wrong about that, but if so, it kinda defeats the point of Robots in Disguise.

    I think the police car that was mentioned was a generic white Impala. So there is reason to believe it is in fact Barricade

    They weren't really "In disguise" any longer. The whole world (basically) knew of their existence. That is why there was news coverage of the decision to oust the Autobots.


    I still don't know if anyone has confirmed it, but Crankcase made Bonecrushers grunt from the transformation scene in TF1. It was when Crankcase 1st transformed.

    I don't think he did, there were subtle differences between his "corpse" mode and his revived mode before we see him as a truck. He still keeps the same chest and stuff but it's shaped differently.

    In the scene where Sam and Carly have an argument and she takes off, she grabs the bunny and you see a picture of her and 2 men (presumably her father and brother?) and a smaller one with just the 2 men. They are in fact the same picture, but in the smaller one, Carly is just cut out.

    And for those saying they hear someone scream "Mudflap" after Sentinel's betrayal, they are correct. Someone does indeed scream "Mudflap, Mudflap!", so I really hope there is a deleted scene where Sentinel kills The Twins.

    It is Barricade and he does talk. He takes to BB and to WJ just before the con soldier shots WJ and then Barricade finishes him off. It is in english as well. So why was his voice never credited in the voice credits? Also like in the nascar spot, the camera car that was on the side when the wreckers drive by it was still in the final movie. It was not edited out. Also when the wreckers are in car mode shooting at Shockwave and Topspin reverses between Roadbuster and Leadfoot, he rolls over Roadbuster's front left tire lol.

    I had my 3rd viewing just this morning. The police car is all white and definitely not a Mustang, therefore a drone. I think it is more likely that Barricade is simply back.

    After the post above about Mudflap, how messed up is it that I actually wish the Twins were in the movie so they can be killed by Sentinel (and avoid a major plot hole)?

    wait, wait, I'm confused you say therefore and drone, then say Barricade is simply back, so which is it that you think? Drone? or Barricade?

    He is saying that the white police car in DC is a drone, but Barricade is back as well.

    When that desk falls right past Shockwave's face, if you look at the upper right part of the screen, you can see a coffee mug smash on his head.

    It is flight tech. I made sure to pay attention to what he said during my 2nd viewing. The first time around, I thought he said deck, but he does indeed say "flight tech".

    Also, there are (at least) 3 of those giant ships (could we call them 'motherships'?). Look in the sky as Sam and Epps & Co. are entering Chicago

    what about the con that is shooting the people and they explode into bones? Where is the blood? How is it the people dont have blood but all of a sudden all the TFs now have red blood. I understand they have other lubricants in their bodies beside Energon but in this movie more so than ROTF, it was a bit much as far as the red blood/lubricant went dont you think? When the wreckers pulled the con pilot apat it was all red fluid that came out of him... where was the Energon lol


    Also the same con that was shooting the people on the street that exploded into bones, did anyone catch that he looked to be some form of a car or vehicle on the street, transformed and then started blasting people?


    Also the big ass four legged con that was fighting the Autobots in Chicago was a military Stryker. You can see the wheels on his legs and he is an Army green. The Autobots team up on him in the end of the movie and take it down just before they rush in to try and take on Sentinel.
