The Energon Pub

This is quite funny when my friend mentioned it.

Megatron was like frozen in the Artic for what, a few thousand years? Plus the extra few hundred year imprisoned in Hoover Dam. Roughly a total of 4000 years, then suddenly he went back to Nemesis and said "I have failed you my master"

Well, I was the Fallen, i'd be slapping his head for making me wait 4000 years. Megs was lucky The Fallen even remembered him after thousands of years.

I guess the writers forgotten about that.

You forget that a thousand years is peanuts to Transformers, their lifespan can exceed millions of years.

Im curious about that too.

Despite the 4000 years of MIA, Megatron was bent on looking for the Allspark. Now after regenerated, he seems to have been bent on finding the matrix? When did that happen? With no previous mention of the matrix at all in the timeline before TF the movie ended. Comic-wise or novel-wise.

Just like the Matrix in every series.

the answer to that question was in the conversation between the fallen and megatron. . megatron said, @i have failed you master'. blah blah blah the allspark is destroyed. . blah blah blah' The fallen replied, the allspark cannot be destroyed it just changes in form.' there you have it. . the indirect reference to another power source that is equivalent to the allspark. which if we examine the prequels points to the energon harvested from stars. The star harvester needs the matrix to operate. . . . . . . and there we have the complete picture. . . .megatron have known this in the prequel. . . he was actually pushed to follow the allspark since it is suppose to go were the star harvster is. . . .

Agreed. Technically, they aren't subject to decay like organic things. They just need Energon (and not get killed). And evidently, their consciousness does continue after death, at least with the higher Primes. The fact that those spirits can actively guide and then RESURRECT Sam or at least bring him back from the threshold makes them rather (read: too) powerful as individual sci-fi characters.
