Maybe if Megatron said he wanted to transport Decepticons to earth to kill the Autobots/gather energon to aid in rebuilding Cybertron, that'd make more sense.
Totally right! the humans may looks like ants on Cybertron...and the finish the job...when? 1000 or 2000 years later?
Victory depends on everyone point of view.

These movies don't lack plot and that which they have are perfectly serviceable for this type of movie.
The problem arises when you shove a bunch of story lines into a movie at one time without focusing on any.
When a movie needs a character to explain to other characters just what is occurring and why, a basic premise of storytelling has been lost.

You deserve an energon goodie for stating that.

and considering cybertron has no atmosphere we know of thatll be a brief time on cybertrons surface if at all.

How do we know it has no atmosphere? Besides, even if it doesn't I'm pretty sure Cybertronians are smart enough to build machines that provide oxygen.

Technically I believe Cybertron is not supposed to have an atmosphere (but this is the bayverse). Sure, but you get the daftness of it all, right? Its clearly the only way to make the movie appear to have a threat for humans. not to mention there are probably other alien planets with creatures that are more adequately sized and equipped to handle such huge machinery... least in the Transformers universe.
Its like hiring a bunch of pixies to rebuild the twin towers.

I think they would have them do the work on Earth then transport everything to Cybertron. Humans handle huge machinery and have built massive structures already, I don't see how they wouldn't be able to build things for Transformers

Really?
well I can't really argue with that kind of logic.
Its pretty clear people can't admit when somthing is stupid since it might scratch their polished vision of the movie. But hey, who am I to deny you your bayverse fantasy.
