Talk:Arcee (Movie)
You know, I was going to ask if there was someway to put a line in about her movie form not being pink, but now...I don't know, what with the picture up there. -- SFH 23:51, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
Has this this bit -- "due to backlash about her not being from G1. (Yes, yes, we know.)" -- actually been stated as the reason she was replaced? --KilMichaelMcC 00:59, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
- Fan backlash is one of two or three reasons cited by the writers in one of their BotCon panels (and presumably earlier as well). The "not G1" part in particular is probably exaggeration. There definitely are isolated instances of fans claiming that movie/post-movie isn't G1, but I doubt that is a "reason" for her having been pulled. The note should probably be rephrased for accuracy, since the exaggeration isn't obviously in jest. --Steve-o 03:44, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
- I could certainly see backlash regarding Arcee being used in place of an earlier character. Yes, she's a G1 character, but if you have a limited number of autobots she's not exactly everyone's first or even second choice. I do also remember a bit of kerfuffle about one of the producers being asked about Arcee and commenting that she's the one that turns into a motorcycle. So there might have been an impression that he only knew of the Energon version.--Rosicrucian 15:36, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
Interestingly, *nobody* has yet pointed out that Movie Arcee makes no sense 'as a concept.' She'd be *tiny.* Like, the same size as Scorpy or a large Frenzy. 207.255.86.198 14:04, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
- 1) Scorponok's the size of a car.
- 2) Why would she make no sense as a concept if she's a little larger than Frenzy? Frenzy made sense! Why not Arcee?
- 3) I have to go to the bathroom SO BAD right now. Hold on.

- Movie Transformers come in a wide variety of sizes. In robot mode, Arcee would be shorter than most, but taller than some. I don't understand your comment. JW 15:17, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
- Didn't the writers say she was 9 feet tall? Which is considerably taller than humans, but much shorter than say, Jazz. --FFN 16:40, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
Spelling
Guys, please stop editing my spelling of "colour". As I said in my User Talk page, I made the original edit concerning the G1 Colour Edition, and since there are no previous exclusively British or American-spelt words in the article, there's no reason to change it. --Nightshade83 16:43, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
