It was revealed a few days ago on don murphy's board that Arcee will not be appearing in the new tf movie; I honestly could go either way on this one, but imo I think it'd be better to save her for the second movie (if this one does well of course).

I wouldn't mind if they just didn't even touch movie/post movie characters from G1. Stay 1984/1985.

I'm honestly surprised. That was their out to have a more politically correct mix of hero robot characters (keeping the Autobots from being an all male group) and keep with the animated characters ....

What do you mean? I never got the idea that Arcee was meant to be a symbol of equality or anything of that nature. I think she was just thrown in for variety just as the other female autobots were.

Well, she was nurturing/motherly to daniel, which differentiated her from the male characters..and as for movie/post-movie characters, the only one I'd want is ultra magnus and maybe springer, and, in a future movie, Unicron.

I agree, that wasn't the point of her origianl incarnation. I was just commenting on the recent trend to always have a "representative" membership in a movie's hero groups ....

If you look at it. Several of the post movie caracters would fit well into the mix. As said before though. Not in the first movie. Get the story flowing before you throw to many bodies out there.
Now to back up my first statement. Cup was a long time friend of Ironhide. This could help play in some flashback type sceens. Magnus as Primes brother. This could fall back into some Orion Pax story line in a future movie. There is something I have read in some fan fics that could be used to bring in Arcee and Hot Rod later on down the road, but I won't get into that.
Disclamer: This is the I have been up way to long to put any logical thought into the previous statements.

I don't really care to see them deal with the Kup and Ironhide friendship or the Ultra Magnus and Prime are brothers things. I think that is just garbage they stuffed into the comic books. As much as I am a fan of character development, Transformers (in a movie scenario) just doesn't lean towards character development in my opinion.
