The scene where Banacheck is talking to Keller he shows him 2 pics and says one from the Mars rover and one from the soldiers. But they are both from the rover. The second one isn't a night shot, and you can clearly see that it's like a few frames after the first one shown.

Not really a mistake in the movie, more of Bay. First he said that the teaser trailer on Mars would have nothing to do with the movie, but it did. Second he said no mass-shifting because it couldn't really happen, wasn't believable. Um, 1: WTF was the cube scene then!?!? and 2: you're made a movie about giant f**kin robots that transform coming to earth, THAT'S REAL!?!?

Well, according to the writers, that was meant to apply to the Transformers only. Of course, these are the same writers who can't seem to figure out how Bumblebee got his voice back, so take it at face value.

There was a Q&A earlier in the week with the writers that said it was intended that the repair laser that Ratchet used on him finally started to work, but that they didn't really say it in the movie.

We don't know what time it was when he got up. Plus it's still light out when BB picks both of them up. It just starts getting dark when he is getting chased by Barricade.

As for my comment about Barricade and Scorponok disappearing I meant that you see them in the last scene alive and then don't see them again the entire film. It might be that there are cut scenes that show what happened, but to the audience they are left at the end going "Where did they go?"[/quote]

They showed Starscream fighting but he didnt get destroyed and it didnt show him fly away.

And Scorponok wasn't there because he was on a different continet

The Anthony Anderson donut scene is the one that bothers me the most. First the plate is empty, then there's one donut left, then when the two agents come in it's empty again.

It's almost impossible to make a movie without continuity errors. The first Spiderman movie had almost 150, mostly continuity mistakes. But there is no excuse for huge plot holes. And I noticed the camera also in the sideview mirror on that guy's truck. Afterwards they had the actors stand in front of it.
