* An easy line to miss during Blackout's intro--Colonel Sharp receives the incoming tail number of the unknown chopper as 4500X. He orders it cross-checked several times just to be sure, as 4500X was reported shot down months earlier. The tech somberly notes he already did: a friend of his was on that chopper. Knowing that 4500X was previously lost, presumably with all hands, Blackout showing up in its guise is akin to someone digging up a grave and wearing the burial clothes to sneak into a city--an ill informed plan at best and a deliberate desecration at worst.

* Even among his fellow Decepticons in the first movie, Blackout's design stands out as being one of the most overwhelming and hostile. While he has the monochromatic color scheme and jagged shape language expected from those of his faction, the sheer amount of helicopter parts surrounding his physique makes it more difficult to read as humanoid. It makes him even more visually unfriendly than he would've been otherwise, and there might be a narrative reason behind this. Not only is Blackout the first Transformer shown in the series, but his introductory scene is a terrifying one, showing him slaughtering humans left and right without breaking a sweat. His design could be an embodiment of a human's first assessment of a hostile Transformer: intimidatingly huge, nearly incomprehensible, and packing more than enough weaponry to satisfy his blood-lust.
