    What the title says. My top 5:

    1. No over played personality traits - I hope Shockwave can hit targets he shoots at, I hope they tone down the EXTREMELY overplayed cowardice and underling side of Starscream, Bumblebee and Prime aren't God Mode in every fight.

    2. God Mode AutoBots - Please let the Bots and Cons have battles, not Autobot ass kicking fests. ROTF was far too Autobot centric. Other than Megs stabbing Prime, and Scorponok injuring Jetfire, no Decepticon did any damage of note to an Autobot in the ENTIRE movie.

    3. No Military saving the Day - Much respect to the US Military, but they need their Asses whooped in this one. I don't mind them being there in a support role, but make it so the Autobots have to take down Cons, at at least make it so that it takes more for the military to cause damage. In ROTF one and two shots were punishing the Cons in the end. It should take hundreds of soldiers and multiple tank fire focused on ONE Con.

    4. No overdone romance - I'm cool with the romance, but make it a byproduct of the situation and not the focus.

    5. No cheap deaths for main characters - Obviously Megs, Starscream, Soundwave, and Shockwave are going to die. Let their deaths be glorious, let them take down multiple enemies so that when they die, a truly evil force have been vanquished. In RoTF the Cons felt weak and underpowered, more like they could be subdued and captured then terminated. Only Con it seemed HAD to be killed was Demolisher.

    I fear we're going to be dissappointed.

    1. No stupid pointless scenes (dogs humping, mother getting high on weed)

    2. Autobots killing cons with ease

    3. Bumblebee radio talking

    4. Plot holes/bad plot

    5. (leave this one open)

    1. not too much human time-the movie is called transformers

    2.no cheesy lame lines-classic lines are fine, but no "we meet again", "not so fast", or "FREEZE" lines woul be nice. lines like "give me your face" are good though.

    3. no punk bit*h robots-if they fight, it better feel like im there watching a for-real fight. no running, or use of corny weapons.(gridnor.) and no lame fight between a combiner and a landmark.:redface2: 

    4.pointless chase scenes- tf1 was great, tf2 was uneccesary. (but arcee, chromia, and elita made that chase tight.)

    5. and dont kill of all important cons without killing important bots- if shockwave dies, iornhide dies, soundwave ratchet...ect (im still an autobot fan though)

    What I want v
    (as opposed to what I dont)

    No forced humor.

    More focus on the TRANSFORMERS... not fleshlings.

    Glorious deaths for the characters who die... no more "BAM YOU DEAD"

    A single, cohesive plot.

    A steady camera.

    1. Lame main character deaths (dont kill an main transformer character & throw it to the side, at least make the death epic!)

    2. Lots of scenes with Sam's parents (there was waaaaaay too much of them in TF2!)

    3. Dumb pointless jokes/scenes (dog humping, agt simmons butt, ect)

    4. Any of the arcee bikes (Get rid of them, go away, shoo! sorry people but i dont like the arcee bikes!)

    5. Too much human screen time (more screen time for the transformers PLEASE)

    Hmmm...

    1. No crude humour and swearing. I was actually surprised after watching the Wheelie clip for the first time how much swearing there was. I can do without that. If they need something to bump up the rating to PG-13, let the fight scenes do that. We can always use more carnage. ;)  Keep the humour, but maybe just a little less and definitely no humping. Ever. Again.

    2. No over powered military. They should not be able to kill a con, even a drone, without a good amount of reeinforcements or Autobots to back them up. It makes the cons looks weak and incompetent and the Autobots useless. (Why do the humans need them again?)

    3. Copy paste number 5 from the OP. :D 

    4. Actually, that's it from me. I know they don't need to meet my personal preferences for the third movie, but if they meet those three in at least some degree, I'll be very happy. :D

    How about some positive threads for a change?

    1. Fanboys complaining ferociously about something that isn't meant to be taken seriously.

    2. People confusing screen time with screen presence.

    3. Combiners

    4. People complaining about "crude" humor.

    5. Fans making up reasons to hate the movie.

    Epic. Just epic.

    But here are my five things. These are in no particular order.

    1. The Con's getting completely destroyed. I know they'll probably all die, but atleast let them wreck the city, kill some soldiers, a few Autobots.

    2. Cheesy Lines like Wheeljack94 said.

    3. Autobots like Ironhide, Ratchet, even Bumblebee getting shoved aside to focus on the Humans. Please, it's the last TF film by Bay!

    4. For it to FEEL too long, RotF would kind of drag on at times, though it was only 4 minutes longer than TF1.

    5. For Ratchet to just act as a Soldier. He's a Medical Officer. PLEASE let him heal someone onscreen.

    1. Skids & Mudflap being prominent

    2. New characters being sidelined, with not much more than a simple namedrop

    3. Death scenes that amount to "blink and you'll miss it"

    4. Bad humor in favor of exposition. ROTF required a familiarity with TF fiction in general to make sense of its plot.

    5. The military being a total powerhouse.

    1) No questionable humor. A little humor in an action film isn't a bad thing but if I want dogs humping, robots humping legs, or balls on a robot I'll watch something like Robot Chicken. Really don't want to watch Transformers for the robotic version of Jack Ass.

    2) No more one sided fights. I know good guys are meant to win in American action films, but it should look like they had to at least work a little for it instead of just slaughtering the other side. Ripping Ravage in half just to make Bumblebee look all bad ass just isn't cool.

    3) Less military saving the day and more Autobots saving the day.

    4) The Twins having anything to say.

    5) Fans getting all upset because other fans dare to criticize whatever flaws the film might have.

    01) Prime and Bee being the only TFs to get good fight scenes

    02) Skids and Mudflap being more focused on than the bots listed in #3

    03) Ironhide, Sideswipe, Ratchet getting sidelined.

    04) The original bond between Bee and Sam to be ignored

    05) For Lennox and Epps to have such little screen time, like in ROTF

    1) No humping dogs

    2) No robot testicals

    3) No John Turturro butt

    4) No Orci and Kurtzman who blame writer's strikes for humping dogs, robot testicles and Simmons' butt cheeks

    5) No overly sensitive, frothing-at-the-mouth fanboys who attack anyone and everyone who criticizes or otherwise doesn't like any part of the film

    1) No crude humour and lame attempts at jokes
    2) No Twins eating up all the screen time (or screen presence, whatever you want to call it)
    3) No blood-thirsty, invincible Autobots (likewise, no pansy pushover Decepticons who do nothing but die)
    4) No sloppy editing or plotholes like in ROTF
    5) No (or less, at least) pro-military propaganda
