There was so much story to play with!
Larry Hama is even used as a Story Consultant for the film.
What consulting did Hama do considering all the mix ups anyway?
I suspect the story outline was approved and possibly designed by the Hasbro execs; Goldner to be specific. They do not appreciate the vintage ARAH as we do.
Sorry to say it but it is too late now!!!
I really don't think it was Hasbro's doing...more like Lorenzo Dibonaventura and Paramount where they had an already preconceived notion that the movie be more like X-Men and less like the military ARAH lore that's found in the comics.
