Things I would like to see in the next D&D movie:

A better script
Better actors
A better director
Better special effects
A better approximation of D&D character archetypes (elves, dwarves, rogues who don't scream when they're trying to rob someplace)
Snails stays dead

What about a herbalist druid who's afraid of animals (mainly squirrels)? :p
An elf fighter who couldn't shoot an arrow and hit the broadside of a castle at point-blank range?
A ranger who can't read tracks?
A womanizing paladin juggling two wives between two villages?
An acrophobic dwarf?
 

How about wizards not trying to fireball creatures that are supposed to be immune to fire?

Raise snails to kill him slowly, very slowly. Though i actually want the movie to start with the intended ending of the first, where the red stone is left on the grave of snalls, Ridley says his goodbyes and walks away[pesumably down the path of paladin, which if he falls off of, he does have 5 ranks in hide...

A real dungeon crawl with a PARTY. Not like the first movie
Good idea. It should be stacked with lots of creatures... that fight back.

Though given that it took Peter Jackson took 3 movies before a wizard to throw a fireball, i don't think he is my top choice, He downplays flashy combat magic too much. Now an Iron Heroes movie, that PJ would be perfect for. The D&D movies need big flashy spells and magical effect and lots of them, not just flashes of light.

Webs that help and hinder the party.

beholders using their eye rays ala Mars Attacks.

A rust monster

A explanation for the blue/purple lipstick. I can understand its likely a protective item [like how eyeshadow protects vs the evil eye in mythology] but it just looks wrong.

I dunno. I prefer subtlety. I just simply hate over-the-top kind of magic, but I guess when it comes to D&D their magic is at the very least over-the-top. :\
 

A good plot, standable one-liners, start beholders, more dragons, displacer beasts, gelatenous cubes, and a sphere of annilation in a bag of holding
