    Another reason I hated that Animated ended with 3 Seasons, I belive Arcee would have become part of the main cast and I was looking forward to it. I loved seeing her stand alongside the main cast at the end of the Series.

    I fail to see how she is the most developed to date? All I see is the creators trying too hard to get a 'badass' femme and having her be super awesome super skilled ninja warrior. That and her 'angsty' past is about it...Wihtout her past and skills...what is it to her that is so developed? Not being a jerk but I'm just lost. ^^; Sorry.

    True and it would be nice to see her be a part of the main cast in TFA but to be honest I thought the writers had a missed opertunity to do so from the beginning. I mean she was used nothing more then a plot device. A plot device for a well written plot but a plot device nontheless. Yes they said she was a teacher and that she's nice but we didn't see enough of that to really get into her. People say the same thing about TFP Cliffjumper well shouldn't the same be applied to her? She had poteintal but as a character I don't think she was handled well at all by the writers.

    And you're not being a jerk. I'm just telling you why I think TFP Arcee's the most developed so far that's all. The thing is that she's slowy letting go of her bitterness through her relationship with Jack overtime and even helps out Miko about Bulkhead's condition. She's being more open with people around her and that she's not really hostile towards Starscream about Cliffjumper anymore. As for her past well yes people die in war but that still doesn't stop someone who feels at least a little upset about someone they care dead. War effects certain people differently and she happens to be one of the few who has it in a most severe way.

    I hope that answers your question. It's fine if you don't agree with it.

    I think it's the best Transformers animated show since G1
    I can't see any reason why somebody would think it was the worst

    that is so damn patronizing.

    Really, cause someone doesn't agree with your subjective opinion they MUST be narrow minded and unable to think "outside the box".

    Do you realize how ironically hypocritical that is?


    I've watched all of G1, BW and BM, animated, TFP, and enough of the unicron trilogy to relize I don't want to watch all of it. TFP is my personal favorite, like many others I've given my reasons in this thread, you can disagree with my opinion, but you can't tell me its wrong or that I'm somehow less open minded than you for holding the opinion I do

    This.

    People who believe Prime is a good show are just narrow-minded and have no taste in good television. Don't hate.

    Because being a G1 purist and hating almost everything that came after is so VERY open-minded!

    Seriously, this is almost as stupid as Ebert's "not sufficiently evolved" crack about people who enjoyed ROTF. I mean, I HATED ROTF, but calling people who enjoy something "un-evolved" is kinda jackass-y.

    Million dollar question right here: Why are you in the Prime forum if you don't like Prime? :confused:

    Saying people are narrow-minded with no taste in good television regard liking Prime is like being an ignorant prick.

    You "think" as an imbecile.
    I would ask, if you are just a weakling that cannot deal with its own disillusions, but it would be as low-brow as that your claim was.
    Among any other advantages, TransFormers Prime helps me to learn new words and improve my skills. This is just complicated and versatile.
    It is just a part of it: what can it give you. Another one is what you want and can gain from it.

    Just because someone doesn't like a show doesn't mean they aren't allowed to watch it. Maybe I'm just holding out and waiting for the show to get good (which most likely will not happen.) I'm still allowed to give my opinion you know!

    As much as I hate Prime, I at least have the decency to respect other's opinions when I argue against them.

    You, on the otherhand, are a G1 purist who couldn't put together a semi-decent argument even with help and think you're somehow above every other user on this forum.

    There are plenty of people who are waiting for Prime to get good, but they aren't going around the Prime forum calling people narrow minded for saying that Prime isn't a good show. If you're allowed to give your opinion, why can't you respect others opinions?

    Hey, I was just agreeing with Sideways77. No need to start an arguement.

    Now referring to the question this thread is asking: Yes and yes.

    You CLEARLY have not seen Season 3 of Sonic X.

    I'd take either season of TF Prime any day over that shitfest.

    Well, we all contain a little part of masochism.
