I think all the threads mourning his death would like a talk with you.

(Although I agree with you, IH's death could have been handled better)
Any emotion is tied to fans identifying with the character, indepedent of the movie. The movie itself did nothing to make the death emotional. In fact, I have a hard time thinking of how it could have been handled with any less emotion than the approach taken by DOTM.

Avengers, in a few snippets of dialog made Phil more sympathetic than the TF trilogy made Ironhide over three films. Avengers also used that death and the generated sympathy after the event. Bay, not surprisingly, completely ignored IH's death in DOTM.

Clearly, my life is not as devoted to Transformers as you. My apologies.

Although, had you paid any attention to that list, not only did HP never have a throne to sit on, but RotF beat it out anyway.

No, I'm the one who should apologize, I meant for that to be taken as a joke, not to offend you in any way

Avengers was riding on a lot of hype and previous success. DOTM had a handicap. And still made the top five.
QFT

That in itself says a lot. To me anyway.

Karma always has the last laugh.
