Well it isin't Steven Sommers either. Sure it is now, but he is just a hired hand paid to do with it what he will. Sure Hasbro has it's say as well, but Hasbro didin't even know how much we loved Optimus Prime when they killed him off in the Transformers movie.
An archaeologist may find Dinosaur bones, and they may belong to Him or Her after they find them, but they aren't HIS they belong to the dinosaur.

True GI.Joe is not OURS, but the difference between us, and Hasbro is we envest money in GI.Joe, and they make Money from GI.Joe.
Like a drug dealer.
The Drug user enjoys, and "loves" the drug.
The dealer loves the money, and in a way loves the user too.
But the dealer has to keep the user happy inorder to get further monies.
When we were kids we didin't have money. Our parents had money. Hasbro was after our parents money.
Now we are adults, and some of us have money, and some of us don't. Some of us have kids, and some of us don't.
The market is too divided for Hasbro to make as much money as they would like.
So now they are targeting new kids, and their parents (a kid can't go to the movies by themselves now can they).
We (the old target audience) are getting retired like an old race horse. I understand and accept it.
Sure we my get an bone thrown here, and there (slideshow collectables, 25th line) and I'm fine with that.
I'll enjoy my retirement.
I realize most adults don't play with toys anymore. So I accept that I/We are in the minority, and that toys, and toy movies are , and ought to be for kids.
I won't like the new movie, but I didin't like Hulk, Iron Man, or any other kid/toy movie that came out recently either.
