Off the top of my head, I'd like to see Hot Rod and Vector Prime.
And more Decepticon jets, definitely.

I don't have a problem with human characters as long as their is a minimum. I thought that was a problem in ROTF. They would have been fine with Sam, Mikeala, Simmons and the two Nest soldiers.

Instead they added that whiny roommate to tag along with the main cast. Sams parents im sort of torn on. On one hand I think their would not be a need for them in another movie. Knowing Micheal Bay however he will want to keep that comedic element in the movie which im fine with but ONLY IN DOSES. In the original it was fine, but in ROTF it was too often.

However to dismiss humans all together is a mistake because you NEED that human vehicle to carry movies like these. No matter how much the die hard fan boys want it. These movies are designed to appeal to both fans and casual audiences who know nothing about the franchise going in. There was a character similiar to Sam in past incarnations of the series and I don't have a problem with the character however they either need to toughen Mikeala more afterall she's supposed to be a criminal or write the character off.

As far as the Transformers go.

I think ROTF sort of suffered from the X-Men 3 syndrome. Too many bots on either side, not enough development much X3. Too many mutants, not enough development.

I think they need to go back to the layout that the original had. Maybe go with a 5 on 5 or 6 on 6 template and leave it at that.

The people who want more Transformers and then complain about their screen time should know unless Bay gets approval for a 4 hour Titanic like run time then your only going to get small time for most of the bots you want.

My proposal.

6 on 6

Autobots

Prime
Ironhide
Ratchet
BumbleBee
Arcee
Twins (Unfortunately we all know it will happen but that's the last choice and it counts as 1 spot)

Decepticons

Megatron
Starscream
Soundwave
Unicron
Dinotron
Buzzclaw

* Increased characterization for Sideswipe, Jolt, Arcee
* Keep the Decepticons in Small numbers: Megatron, Soundwave, Barricade, and Starscream
* No new Robots
* Autobots gather the seekers, but are unable to reactivate them
* A plot revolving around the extinction of the Transformers as a race
* A new force in the form of technorganic creatures, kinda like the old G1 episode "Dweller in the Depths", maybe use an earlier encounter with them to explain why we have Sideswipe with no Sunstreaker (ie Sunstreaker was killed by technorganics while leading an underground demolition mission to Megatron's HQ)
* The Autobots and Decepticons have to work together
* Megatron kills Ironhide when he breaks the pact

well how bout Chuck Norris and that stache of Tom's get into a fight?!!?!?

I'd like to see more characterization for Sideswipe and Jolt.

I think Grimlock would be a good choice for a character. I'd also want to see some Beast Wars-based characters (Rattrap and Waspinator characters would be cool).

I love Grimlock to death, but his inclusion would possibly allow for some badly written story line if not done properly. Meaning, if they wrote him in/gave him an origin --it might turn out horrible based on Kurtz & Orci's writing

I'd hate to see Grimlock in TF3. It would only end in disaster.

I DEMAND FEMBOTS!!!
More Arcee motorcycle girls!! And any other cool onbes we can get in there!!

Fix'd.

What about more obscure TF's? Any particular interest in them?

Obscure TFs such as???? who??

True. I guess it is Fanservice.
I'm a femme fan, so duh.

I really do what more of them. And just more robots in general.
But the problem is (God forbid) I want whoever shows up to have more screen time, or at least more lines (especially lines, that some of what look forward too most).

The motorcyle girls at least had some cool action scenes at the beginning.
But in the final battle, one said a line (their only line) and BAM!! Blasted so hard she flew off camera. It was like a sick cue. You say the line then *BOOM*, you die.
Then another got shot, and the last one was seen zooming away so she wouldn't get scrapped.

It would have been fun to see them hanging out with Mikeala and the other humans.

And then there was Sideways. Same thing that happened to the motorcycle girls.
Couple cool action scenes, he slices Sideways in half, he has one line, and honestly I don't know WHAT happened to him by the end of the final battle.

I guess I'm expecting to much when I want more from newly introduced characters instead of them just making an appearnnce and then dying later.
And if they had more lines than what I've stated, tell me what they were, cause I obviously couldn't catch it while in the theater.

Misogyny? In a Michael Bay action movie? That would NEVER happen!

I KNOW!! Wow...

WHAT was I thinking?

I want to see the Transformers as actual characters in the movie and not just set pieces. They were not in the movie near long enough and they spent too much time on the human characters. Except for Megatron, Starscream, Ravage, and Soundwave, the Decepticons were just random generic robots. Also, make Bumblebee talk damn it!

In the movie, Arcee said something early like, "Locked and loaded" or something.

As for obscure, I'm thinking Erector or something odd along those lines. Possibly someone else, like Ruckus, or the Firecons. Maybe even a Beast Wars oddity or just simple fan-favorites from any generation.

My only concern about someone like Erector is that somehow the image of giant wrecking balls dangling keep popping up in my head.

On second thought, I would like to see...no sequel. Yeah, seriously.

DECEPTICONS
More of Soundwave, Sixshot (has 6 different alt modes!), Seacons(?), Stunticons (DEF), Thundercracker, Trypicon, Rumble, Beastbox, Hun-Gurr (Loved his two-headed dragon mode), Blitzwing and Unicron.

AUTOBOTS
Alpha Trion, Aerialbots, Cosmos, Metroplex, Omega Supreme, Rodimus Prime, more of Sieswipe and Jolt, and Primus.

Highly Impossible though....

I would like to see - time in between early Earth and BB showing up on Earth- cut scenes between cybertron (young prime) and earth (possibly dinobots) then flash forward link story to present when autobots find dinobots on Earth (could possibly have alpha trion show up for that)-then link to larger plot.

Less:
dog humping
maxim photo shoots
over the top mom scenes


and finally... I would like to see Hot Rod, not skids, tracks or even sideswipe.

I wish I could see Primus and Unicron but that wouldnt fit in MB's world of TFs.

I'd like to see it called Fanboys 2: The Hunt for G1 Goodness
You could have a group of diehard G1 fans on a coast to coast road trip set in the fall of 2007, shortly after Transformers 1 was released on DVD and they announced that TF2 was going to be made. Their quest, to drive from somewhere on the east coast to Hollywood and convince Bay, Orci, and Kurtzman to use their treatment with tons of G1 references as the basis for the next movie. Hilarity insues as they travel the country in their beat up old red Volkswagen Vanagon, a G1 Iornhide.....



OK and for TF3 I would like to see:

LESS CRUDE HUMOR!! I was cringing a lot as I sat their with my 9 year old trying to share a very fond memory of my childhood with her. You can have many funny moments, but less of the sexual stuff in a movie that is in all reality a giant toy commercial!

Mirage, but as a NASCAR Sprint Cup car, which works assuming that GM will be involved with the 3rd one and they are obviously not going to pull out of NASCAR.

Hound. I really can't believe he hasn't made it in yet, maybe as a dune buggy, since a Jeep won't happen if GM is involved.

Starscream's armada, Durge, Ramjet, Thrust, Thundercracker, & Skywarp. I thought we were going to get it in TF2 in the previews where it shows the F-22's flying towards the pyramids, or when thy crashed into the carrier...but obviously we didn't.

Soundwave actually transforming with Laserbeak and Rumble.

Shockwave in any form.

The idea for the aircraft carrier transforming as Broadside, one of the G1 triple changers, or that could be Omega Supreme to battle some huge Decepticon combiner

Grimlock, if it can be done in a way that makes since in the confines of the "real" world

Blitzwing but with the Transformers Animated feel. I love that they gave him multiple personalities which made him my fave character of that series by far.

New guys i'd like to see:

Autobots:

Mirage as a silver/chrome motercycle with red and black details, can turn invisible.

Grimlock as a Artillery Tank, Robot mode is T-Rex shaped, one arm turns into sword. He is one of the largest Autobots and is one of the only ones who can take on Megatron without being scrapped.

Springer as an Oosprey, like his ROTF toy.

Trailbreaker as a 2010/2011 concept car, can project forcefields. Protects his allies with his forcefields.

Prowl as a british police car, talkes in british accent.

Sunstreaker as a gold pontiac solstice, clone of jazz with new head design (like Grindor being a clone of Blackout)

Crosswise as a light blue 4X4.

Overcharge as an electric car, has electric stingers that shoot lightning.

Brawn as a large 4X4. Has massive strength, he can pick a fight with a larger Decepticon and easily win.

Ultra Magnus as a car carrier, carries other Autobots on his car carrier modes trailer.

Decepticons:

Shockwave as a Cybertronian Tank, Megatron's body guard.

The Combaticons (from 7-12) combining to form Bruticus/Mangler.

Laserbeak as a robotic bird of prey (fired from Soundwave in space like Ravage)

Rumble as a Boombox like Frenzy, almost exact clone of Frenzy exept he is Blue with Red details and has a different head.

Jetstorm as a military Spooky plane.

Skywarp as a Purple F-22 raptor.

Thrust as a YF-23 Jet.

Scourge and Sweeps as F-117 Nighthawks.

Others:

Unicron as a mechanical planet that feeds on smaller planets in the universe. Tries to destroy earth.

Like previously said, more screen time for bots that barly had any.

And some additions:

Deceptions:
AstroTrain
Shockwave
Trypticon
and more of the Seekers

Autobots:
Ulta Magnus
Wheel Jack
Cliffjumper
The DinoBots
Omega Supreme
Metroplex
and maybe they could add Teletron 1

Oh, and diffently UNICRON!!!

Also, the Junkions!

Definitely i would love to see unicron, maybe the dinobots and ultra magnus

I would love to see an addition of Cosmos. He finds Soundwave in space and a fight begins between those two, and then Shockwave comes in as a space cannon and they tag team Cosmos. Before Cosmos completely gets smashed, he flies to Earth to escape both of them and get to Optimus and the rest of the Autobots.

I want to see Ultra Magnus. A proper Ultra Magnus, a war hardened warrior, not some comical remake (Jetfire anyone)


I would imagine him to be more Scania than Peterbuilt, since the peterbuilt is optimus, the scania would allow for a newer fresher look, instead of that hey we just too optimus and repainted him again look.
