For myself, I'd like to see a trilogy more accurate to the books made. The problem with my own particular vision of the story though is that the PJ films come extremely close to my conception of what Middle-Earth should look like, and to re-use a great many of the design elements and even props from the PJ trilogy would no doubt spark off controversy, as well as accusations regarding imagination or lack of imitation

However, changing things like the time Aragorn's taking up Anduril occurs, inserting characters like Galdor, Imrahil, Elladan, Elrohir and Beregond, leaving out the superfluous bits like the drinking game, re-inserting the Scouring of the Shire and cutting back on the amount of screen-time Arwen gets, as well as making the Gondorian soldiers more realistically tough versus the orcs and giving Aragorn the war-crown helm of the King of Gondor rather than that little tiara, just to name ahandful of hundreds of possible examples, would, I think, differentiate a second trilogy enough from the currently existing one.
