I don't mind flashbacks if it's to new/extended content. Obvious examples being new scenes from one or more of Homura's time-loops, and actually getting to watch Sayaka die fighting those funky demon antagonists.
But I will be disappointed if SHAFT does a lot of flashbacks to scenes we've already seen in the first two movies, or even in the original TV anime. SHAFT already had two recap-style movies. It's time to stop milking the original narrative for all its worth, and show some new content.
