And that's all we heard, Prime. They're
gonna put the energy in some kind of
cube, then haul it back to Cybertron.

Jazz, organise a battle unit. We're

Sideswipe! Autobots, start your engines.
Ready, Prime.

Or here is a thought on the other side, since this is skunkworks and all.
Maybe the GOV used the catchphrase 'lets roll' because it had already been ingrained in the youth through Transformers.
Did that make sense to anybody?

Think about it, if you were on that plane and you were about to rush the cockpit, would you say "Let's go" or "Let's roll"?

Good catch on the "Lets Roll"
But thats not the only thing fishy about the writing of Transformers.
Megatron (allah) needed the cube (stone at mecca) which gives them the power to "convert" everyone to rule the world.
And the cop cars all said, "Dial 911"
