What happened to the sliver of the Allspark that Makaila had?
It was used to turn Jetfire on. Apparently it was used up in the process. How the Americans let someone just walk off with a radioactive shard tucked in a pocket is beyond me considering the lengsth they would have to go to to conceal a street fight between giant robots in the middle of a major city!
What happened to the Decepticon shard? Wiki says they used it to turn Megatron back on but then why did they need to kill one of their own to rip his spark out?
but where the hell was that gun for the rest of the movie?
Why was the ex agent required to instruct them to fire! Why did he have to climb the pyramid to get them to fire. They could see the giant robot climbing the pyramid, shoot at it! Why that Carrier battle group wasn't offering any support to the infantry is another question.
Why could only a 'prime' (although not the original Primes who would rather run away and bury themselves) kill the fallen? That rail gun should have wiped him out while he was hanging around the top of the pyramid so those tanks and missile launchers that surrounded the pyramid before being gravity gunned should have been also able to blast him to bits if they had fired their guns instead of zooming to the foot of the pyramid.
I enjoyed the film, but seriously, did they get a moron to write the plot? The first film had a solid enough story, Megatron wants the cube, Autobots want to stop this, hilarity ensues. Second film not so much, most of the film is completely without a coherent plot.
and although it's kind of sad to admit it, I loved seeing the railgun and JDAMs tear up the Decepticons.
The Decepticons got their asses handed to them throughout the entire film. If it wasn't for their plot device star killer they wouldn't be a threat to anyone, their only kills after all are where they smash into a carrier from orbit and smack a few transport helicopters around. This is going to be a major problem for the next film seeing as they have been completely neutered as a valid threat to the Autobots, let alone the Earth military. I was hoping either the Jordanian or Egyptian army would come rolling in with a huge tank force and the Decepticons would rip them apart.
Get busy living or get busy dying... unless there’s cake.
