    Here is what I'm hoping for:

    -More Starscream Defiance
    -Soundwave has a visor (not in novel but just hoping)
    -Megatron can still fly cuz it doesn't sound like he is able to fly in the novel...
    -Mirage lives. I'd like to Starscream kill him but.....badasses shouldn't die...
    -Barricade actually doing something. I know he is killed as background fodder but I would at least like to see him run into battle.
    -Starscream living
    -Suprise! Suprise! Silverbolt is in the movie!
    -Soundwave says his famous "Soundwave Superior" lines
    -Shockwave being able to fly with those boosters on his back. I don't know what those things are but they may as well be boosters.

    You guys?

    Well, in the DOTM game, those things on Shockwave's back just glow and power up his cannon. So..meh.


    and I agree with the Soundwave having his visor. Same with Barricade and actually doing something. Barricade was my fave in TF1....hopefully Bay doesn't screw him over.

    Damn. I didn't think this topic would die so easily! It seems to be what everybody in different threads are talking about...they're just not the right threads...

    So I've brought this up again. If no one cares, I'll just leave this one alone...

    ^Agreed about Opt and the Jetpack!

    I hope Optimus and Megatron actually fight AGAINST each other at some point. Perhaps just before they make a truce to rebuilt Cybertron. Which would also leave a possibility for TF4 since the audience wouldn't know if Megatron was really trying to end the war and do what is good for his race OR if it was an act of desperation to survive the battle and be able to fight another day with possibly a new army. :thumbs2:

    I'd lime to see megatron be sincere about trying to rebuild. But on his way home he is abducted and converted to galvatron and returns to fight optimus

    I just think it doesn't seem like Megatron to give up on the war... I'd like it if they left every option open.

    I hope Ironhide doesn't dissolve alive like in the novel, it's a pretty gruesome and disturbing death.

    That is rather random. Care to explain? You don't have to but I'm just curious.....

    It would be a nice nod to TF:TM, where Galvatron killed Starscream. Galvatron in that was voiced by Leonard Nimoy and Nimoy is voicing Sentinel Prime in DOTM.

    That would be a nice nod. especially since Sentinal has that rust gun.....

    It probably wouldn't sit to well with Screamer-fans like me because there is nothing personal between the two characters. Just look at the Ironhide fans.

    True, it would make an awesome deleted scene though.

    I know the topic says spoilers, but just for common courtesy.
    I like many would like ironhide to live but i still want sentinel to kill some autobot. It really is shocking and emphasizes the betrayal
