I don't think the point of the OP is that we will get the movie we want by banding together and presenting Hasbro and the studio with the source material and direction they should use. The point is that if we do come to a consensus on a few things and and articulate that (i.e. almost no-one loves the RoC CC mask, some like it, some do love it, but the majority of fans can come to a consensus and say it should have been something closer to the hood or the chrome).
I don't believe that the opinions expressed on a message board are going to be taken that seriously by Paramount or Hasbro, however, I do believe that there are those who do read these boards to get feedback from the core fan base, or by those who are NEW fans of the property that has been created who have joined those boards.
If there are a ton of threads on each fan site about CC's mask being changed back to something closer to a hood or chrome helmet, it might merit passing on to someone who does have a say in how things go.
As it has been said, we are all different people who want different things and pleasing us all is impossible. The OP was correct in stating there are things that the majority of fans can agree on without damaging their personal 'Joe Bubble'.
God forbid another RoC thread is created, but this can be done. Come up with a list of things people would like changed and get the rest of us to comment on it. I'm sure there would be a consensus on a few changes everyone would like to see. Pit those changes against each other in poll to see how many people would weigh one change for another and then tally the most popular.
Many of us belong to multiple boards, so it isn't hard to do something similar on another board. Once the results are in, send them on to Paramount/Hasbro, or whoever. Would the changes get made? Maybe, probably not, but at least we would have done something as a community of fans to try to influence the direction instead of just bitching about it.
