* [[Actor Allusion]]:
** Crosses into [[You Look Familiar]] in the first movie; Sam meets Bobby Bolivia to buy his first car, and Bobby says "that practically makes us family", alluding to both their previous roles in ''Charlie's Angels Full Throttle''.
** John Turturro's previous role in ''[[You Don't Mess With the Zohan]]'' has him owning a restaurant after leaving his previous job (terrorist leader in ''Zohan'' and government agent in ''ROTF'').
** In ''ROTF'' Shia Lebouf is [[Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull|chased through a library, visits important archaeological sites and finds out that aliens were involved in ancient human history.]]
*** This is not the first time Shia has had to [[I, Robot (film)|battle murderous robots]]
** Also in ''ROTF'', [[Hugo Weaving|Megatron]] [[The Matrix|tortures Sam and has a mechanical bug burrow into Sam's body]]. [[Squick]] ensues.
** In DOTM, {{spoiler|[[Leonard Nimoy|Sentinel Prime]]}} states [[Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan|that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.]]
*** Also, counting as [[Foreshadowing]] as well, Wheelie watches on episode of ''[[Star Trek: The Original Series]]'' in Sam and Carly's apartment and says; "I've seen this one. This the one where Spock goes nuts". {{spoiler|Hinting at Sentinel Prime's later betrayal}}.
** Dutch, played by Alan Tudyk, [[Dollhouse|has a suppressed personality buried within him that has a violent streak.]]
** Wheeljack/Que in DOTM has a face that resembles [[Albert Einstein]]. His voice actor, George Coe, once voiced Einstein in ''[[Celebrity Deathmatch]]''.
** Sam affectionadely calls Carly "Angel". Rosie Huntington-Whiteley rose to fame as a Victoria's Secret Angel.
* [[Dawson Casting]]: [[Shia LaBeouf]] was 19-20 while filming and [[Megan Fox]] was 19, both playing high school juniors. The only thing that makes this worthy of note is that Bay mentioned that he was initially not interested in LaBeouf because in his movies immediately prior he had grown a goatee, making him look too old to play a teenager. Seeing him clean shaven convinced him otherwise.
* [[Reality Subtext]]: Bumblebee vs. Barricade: Chevy Camaro vs. Ford Mustang.
