Today I read something very interesting in a thread.
“ fPetrie started off the series as a cowardly, flightless nobody who annoyed many film critics with his poor attempts at being the comic relief. However, the sequels slowly improved his character over the years until he became a very likeable character by the time Stone of Cold Fire came out”
I honestly feel the exact opposite. I liked Petrie in the original, but feel he gradually became worse over the course of the sequels. Bizarre, huh? (Although I feel maybe he was finally starting to improve with Journey Of The Brave.)
I don’t know how everyone feels about Petrie, but it would be interesting to know if there are others who feel as strongly about him one way or the other.
