    So even though there's not much good to be found in these movies, they still were pretty much the face of the franchise for a long time. Because of this certain aspects of these movies are probably gonna pop up in different stories or toylines or whatever. Which ones do you expect to see for a long time and which ones do you actually wanna see?

    I think the most obvious one that won't go away is Bumblebee not speaking. I don't really care about this that much since I think it makes him less generic than the other kid appeal characters like Hot Shot.

    One thing I wanna keep around is Barricade. Dude's become my favourite Decepticon although I doubt we'll be seeing the personality I like for him (which is his personality from the DS game) but it's better than having his ass land into obscurity. Just hope they're not always gonna make him a Smokescreen repaint cause his ugly double chined face doesn't work for Barricade

    Spielberg didn't play around when it came to discipline on set. When Megan Fox or Shia LaBeouf messed things up for the shoot or their personal lives, they were cut. As in publicly fired.

    That needs to happen more, not just for the satifaction many of us feel, but it's the wake-up call that might save someone's life one day.

    Mark Wahlberg might be a goofball with questionable acting talent, but you don't see video of him drunk in the gutter now do you?

    Steve Jablonsky :rock 

    Sector 7 having a long term standing in the new films. They've got alot of potential story to be told to be around for a while, like the whole data harvest scene from Shatter and Dropkick. Back in 2007 the whole concept of them reverse engineering tech from Megatron which jumpstarted the Technology shift was good, but then it got swept under after the first film.

    The Constructicons having their own unique designs and paintjobs like ROTF to tell from one another.

    Lastly, Some of the 2007 "allspark power" toy characters who only appeared in the early comics. It's criminally underrated that Wreckage, Incinerator, Stockade, and Longarm barely have any modern incarnations. But hey, Dropkick started off as a drone character from 2007 so it gives me hope they haven't entirely forgot about them.

    Uhm for future live-action movies definitely the aesthetics of the 07 designs. Not a fan of the G1 blockier designs and I really hope that we see a shift back to the more alien-looking designs like Blackout, Brawl, Barricade etc. And as for concepts in general I really hope the gimmick of mute Bee goes away once and for all. I would also like them to include more of Lockdown in other transformers media. He's just awesome!

    Steve Jablonsky scores. That's the main thing for sure I would be perfectly fine that they carried over from the Bay films.

    A bit of exposed internal design for the Transformers.
    Shatter, Dropkick & Blitzwing still kept to the first trilogy 'layered' armor design.
    I also hope they keep the more none human face like having gas masks and light up mouth piece.

    I really liked the way the first film modulated all the TFs' voices. It made them feel more robotic and alien on an auditory level.

    Yeah, I hated how they all sounded ADR’d in and not actually “on set.” The deep, synthetic tone sounded like their voices were actually coming from inside a giant machine. Maybe the deepening didn’t need to stay, but the effect should have.

    I want most of the stuff to stay. I think the bumblebee designs are kiddy and lame. I want the decepticons to still look scary, powerful and cool like in the older movies and not dumb idiots, goons and weak soldiers like in the generation cartoon. Why do people even like the decepticons in that show. They are so weak and goofy. I also still want the explosions and other epic stuff staying in the movies. I don’t know why people are complaining about explosions in a movie about about giant alien robots in a WAR. Of course there is going to be a bunch of bombs and shit going off. Optimus should still have a mouth, bumblebee needs to shut up and be silent so he won’t be annoying like in animated, RID and G1, and past movie characters like blackout, barricade and more needs to return to the knightverse movies and not boring g1 characters we have seen a billion times.

    Right now, the only aspect of the previous movies I definitely think is going to remain is them being a combo of live-action and CGI.

    I’m not I just think the movies are better. I like transformers prime, the unicron trilogy and the wfc and foc games
