When his ties to Storm Shadow are revealed, we realize his life sucks and Storm Shadow got shafted hard core.
your opinion, and no offense but you're already said Storm Shadow is your favorite character.
scarlett is the one who gets him to start trusting again, after what he perceived as Storm Shadow's treachery. he was with her for years, constantly risking his life for her, being engaged to her, etc.
if she isn't a BIGGER part of his character, she's as BIG as SS.

haven't we already established the fact that i go to bed each night praying to god in heaven that the spoilers are false...well, maybe not every night.
sad part is they are the only things we have to really go by on here, so we discuss them.

Joe as a nuisance, overlooking the real problems that G.I. Joe was ambitious enough to counter.
look, the history of GI Joe, ARAH are totally against you on this one, so you might as well swallow it.
in Marvel, the canon, they were clearly UNDER the jugglers / pentagon, and had a hierarchy going from Duke up to Hawk, up to General Flagg / Hollingsworth / Hawk again...then the Pentagon...they constantly referred to it.
their pay came through the Pentagon, and to whatever base they were attached to. this was seen in issue, hell, somewhere in the 50's to 60's when Raptor was able to use the Pentagon's salary database to locate the Joes.
they were attached to the Chaplain's assistant motor pool, at Ft. Wadsworth, Staten Island...a U.S. Military Base.
there are PLENTY of citings from the joes themselves about working for 'uncle sugar'...Uncle Sam...United States Government...before the fall of the Pit at Ft. Wadsworth, Flint is trying to get Lady Jaye's attention by even mentioning his great insurance policy from 'uncle sugar' as a reason she should 'hitch' up with him.
there are more...but you probably know them too.
in the CARTOON...there are more. remember when cobra had the space station, or satellites and the joes were going to shoot them out of the sky with modified Sky Strikers? who did they go to for the MONEY? A congressman that wanted tickets to the Army - Navy football game. something that he thought Duke could get because he was a member of the U.S. Army.
how about when Falcon was being COURT MARTIALED for negligence of duty? not tried in a court...COURT MARTIALED...that is something that occurs to the MILITARY.
go back to Action Man etc, and maybe not...but the GI Joe: A Real American Hero...and they are part of the American Military. i could win that one in a court of law...too much evidence.
if you don't like to think of them in the military...whatever reason...if you would rather think of them as something 'beyond' the military...if you would rather think...( since the Rock might be in this movie...i'll borrow a line from him )
IT doesn't matter what you think! evidence says other wise.
ok, i realize that was uncalled for and possibly over the top...probably not even funny for any of you who never saw Duane Johnson on a microphone...and really stupide to say to a ModGod, but, hell, i've said worse before, so take it as...whatever ya want i guess.
point is, they, GI Joe, ARAH, the characters that are in THIS movie, are in the US Military.
