The last two ages, four and five look interesting. I wouldn't mind them creating a forth one with a WWII theme. The character on the last one looks like the character you play as on Halo. The weapon looks exactly the same too! It only makes sense they start going through the ages and beyond our current age.

If they go ahead with the modern and futuristic themes, they'll have to start again completely from scratch. I'd be very disappointed if they used the same gameplay techniques from the Medieval/Renaissance games. I'd expect the new Age of Empires games (like I said, if they go ahead with their idea) to play a bit more like something like Company of Heroes than what we're used to from an AoE game.
I think it's about time for a change anyway. They've used to same template for the game for over 10 years.

True... and like you said, if they go too far in advance in time.. it'll have to be from scratch because we don't necessarily know what empires/nations would be around.
As for WWII, I'm not sure there would be enough variety... I mean, for teams.
But either way... I'd be excited whichever direction a potential Age of Empire IV would take.
