Personally, I can think of three things right off the bat; get rid of Greasepit for one. His dripping-crap-everywhere trick is funny in the cartoon, but it wouldn't translate well to a live-action movie. Secondly, redesign the bros' outfits. They're about ten years late for a modernization. But don't take any cues from the new series; 99% of us agree that those designs are mostly shit. Amirite? XD Thirdly- make sure it's directed by Micheal Bay. After seeing the third Transformers movie, I am absolutely convinced that if the right people are holding his leash, the man can make some awesome stuff.
I'd steal the 3d team/s that did the critters in Chronicles of Narnia for the non-human characters. I like Charley's redesign, actually. The others, not so much.
I always want good characterisation and awesome character interaction. Action flicks and Hollywood's current trend being what it is a solid plot would be a huge bonus.
Original voice actors continuing in their roles.
I'm easy ;)
Muscles, continuation of the once upon a time storyline, muscles, romance, more muscles, less rootbeer, romance, more muscles, killer sound track

hear hear bro
ehhh~ Can't say I want Bay's hands in a bmfm movie, he's already got his hands in the tmnt fandom and to me that's more than enough. Other than that, can't really nitpick much about what's already been said.

as much as i like the bayformetrs, I think he would not do well with a bmfm verse, i just don't see him putting the effort into the fandom that it deserves. tf3 is g1 season 1 ultimate doom 3 part episode. the characters don't display the range of emotions that war truly carries.
now my fav. directors do series, so i don't know how well they would shift to a one time movie. I would love steilburg as director/producer. Tom hanks did great with band of brothers. the crew from that band of brothers would be my pick. then add the war of wolds crew for effects and cgi action. again i doubt bmfm would pick up that big of stars since it is a toon and aside from tmnt, the 'furry' style movies fall short of serious block busters.
toon or otherwise. I would love to see a bmfm tf style movie. Reality, I don't see it being produced with a grand budget.
it would prolly be a better toon movie with a completely different twist to the plot and not a tie between old and new.
fantasy: (aside from the original production crew/cast/Rick and Tom)
Steven produce, hanks direct, dreeamworks cgi, paramount studio, original voice actors. -paulsen, harewood, Ian,
greasepit should be changed to vinnie jones, who has a better name (Cataclysm) would work, but still be the human bad ass Greasepit, without the drippies and complete stupidity. But still dim.
limburger would be a large dude (who did the king pin again?) him. less smell jokes but still there.
charly : a smart babe who can act. 1980's ripely from aliens XD - not megan fox - sarah from prison break?
toss in some stuff from the old marvel era effects team and ya. that's be what i would want from a BMFM movie.
with a lot tossed onto the writers. Eve n' Bob Forward would be one of my pics for a writing team. Dan would be nice too.
