In this movie, two factions of shape shifting alien robots (Autobots and
Decepticons) fight on Earth over the All Spark (a cube that was the
source of their species). The Decepticons want to use the All Spark to
turn Earth's machines into an army. Thus, the Autobots had decided that
the All Spark will have to be destroyed to protect humanity.

At one point, a Decepticon meteor hits a well lit stadium. However, the
stadium looks empty of either spectators or players. Why light up a
stadium if no game is going on? Isn't that a waste of energy?

With camera phones all over the place, I expect that videos of the
invading Decepticons will be all over You Tube, Face Book, and other
Internet sites, making it hard to conceal them.

The Secretary of Defense gets out a message directing that Air Force
planes be sent to a certain area, authenticating it with his code.
Given the Decepticon's incredible code breaking abilities, how can the
military trust any codes?

Dude, have you _ever_ done any actual work at a Stadium? They light
the damn things up all the time.

Besides all the other plot holes and possible things to complain about
int he movie, what did you think of Ms Fox?

I've never been employed at a stadium.

I was watching a South Park episode about Scientology where aliens
migrated into volcanoes for their spirits later to be spew forth and
multiply by direct transfusion into human hosts, which follows is all
we are, a fair assessment of import that should be defensibly cross-
posted into suitable channels of related interest.

I'm just say'n, the lights might be on for any number of reasons.
Still, you make some valid points.

Regarding this film though, there is a certain heavy lifting to be
done by the audience to keep the suspension of disbelief up in the
air.

Liar. In the first Transformer movies a giant, planet-eating robot
called Unicron threatens the entire galaxy.

I'm talking about the Transformer movies made this decade, not any earlier
Transformer movies.
