I went back and forth between typed and untyped languages. The sheer drudgery of typing out and visually filtering out while you read the obvious type information is what makes typed language feel way less fun for me. When you cut things out move them around, delete them, retype them, throw everything away again and start over... I'd never choose Java for initial implementation of anything.
I'm not sure why other people like dynamic languages but there must be some advantages.
