* [[Backed by the Pentagon]]: Somewhat odd, considering almost every Decepticon from the first film was a military machine, and the Pentagon typically doesn't support scripts that make the military look bad. The fact that the US Armed Forces kick a considerable amount of ass in all three movies, and the movie producers pointing out that the Decepticons picked US military machinery because it kicked the most ass, is what convinced them to sign on. |

The fact that the US Armed Forces kick a considerable amount of ass in all three movies, and the movie producers pointing out that the Decepticons picked US military machinery because it kicked the most ass, is what convinced them to sign on.
- The Danza: Glenn Morshower as General Morshower in ROTF and DOTM.
- Dawson Casting: Shia LaBeouf was 19-20 while filming and Megan Fox was 19, both playing high school juniors.

Seeing him clean shaven convinced him otherwise.
