I definitely like the idea of a leaner cut of TF2 without the dog humping. I actually liked the movie enough that I'd be happy to see it again as-is, but it definitely should have been at least 30 minutes shorter. There's plenty of frivelous junk and maybe an action scene that could easily be cut out while still keeping it coherent. I think that this movie has tons of potential for fan edits, so I look forward to seeing what people do with it.

Also, while I like the idea of editing Soundwave's voice to give him the classic vocoder sound, aside from that I'd be pretty leery of trying to "fix" any of the other robots to be more G1-like. Even if it were technically possible to recolor or modify certain characters to look more like the G1 versions without making it look sloppy, it doesn't really seem very constructive to me. Ideally, a fan edit should be able to take a hard look at a movie, and cut or rearrange stuff without sentimental bias, with the end goal being a film that is better. Trying to put a G1 filter on the robots seems more like an oldschool fanboy nitpick to me than it does an actual improvement. Personally, I like the robot designs in the movies just fine for the most part (except for the twins since they look like retardicons), and I think that at best, making them look more like the G1 versions would be a sidestep in quality. The only real change I would make (besides filtering Soundwave's voice) would possibly be getting rid of the whole "split personality" gimmick on Arcee. If there was a way to make her appear to be just one bike and one robot, I think that would be an improvement since it didn't really make much sense in the original cut.

Anyway, I look forward to seeing what happens with this. I enjoyed this movie a lot already, but if given the right cuts I think it could easily be on par with the original 2007 Transformers film. Also, if there's any way someone could make a 1080p HD fan cut using the Blu-Ray as the video source, that would kick ass!
