For the next movie or the reboot, who should be the JOEs breakout character? I nominate, Chuckles, Stalker, C.C. Quick Kick and the Siegies.

Flint needs to be developed, if they bring him back. Otherwise, I'd like to see Shipwreck or Tunnel Rat developed.

Not sure what you mean by "breakout"?
If you mean what new joes should be introduced into the storyline, i would like the crimson twins, and the dreadnoks. |

"Breakout" usually means unexpectedly popular. And it's usually not something that can be predicted.
Groot was a breakout character, and as such, nobody was prepared to capitalize. If anyone suspected Groot would be a breakout character, Hasbro would have made a LOT more merchandise.

I think Stalker is way overdue for the Movie. Jamie Foxx as Staff Sgt. Sykes in "Jarheads" would be perfect.
Gung-Ho is way over due, but I thought Dwayne Johnson would have made a great Gung-Ho. Major-Bludd, Wild-Weasel, Copperhead and Scrap-Iron. I think if Channing Tatum was cast as Steeler I would have loved it. Youngish Officer yes. Grizzled Army Sgt Major, Ah No. Now if there was a complete Comic/ Cartoon reboot with fresh characters, or at least ones that got past over. There is so many ways to go. Personally I would set it a few years down the line to keep the older characters for cameos or turning over the keys. The Core starting group: Major Claymore Team Commander Captain Falcon: XO Flint: Warrant Officer: Planning Beachhead: Sgt Major Repeater: Heavy Machine Gunner Wet-Suit: SEAL Hollow-Point: Marine Sniper Barrel-Roll: Air Force PJ Dart: Pathfinder Hard-Drive: Computers/Communications Dodger: Driver/Mechanic Salvo: Heavy Weapons Muskrat, Hit&Run, Recoil, Outback, Backblast, Bombstrike, Rampart, & Rollbar to boss around maybe more roles later or to kill off.

Lt Falcon. Properly cast and developed character wise, he could make an outstanding addition to the Joe movie-verse.

Jinx. I honestly don't think any non-joe fan who watched the films even remembers what the character's name was.
Because contrary to my own inclinations as a collector, I think the Ninja aspect of GI Joe has been the most successful element of the first two films. A movie focusing on the dark world of the Arashikaji with Jinx as a strong female lead has a lot of potential, I think.

Getting away from the heavy machine-gunners and going into ninjas alows them to explore superhuman aspects of far-easy mythology. Heck, I would be tempted to do Snake-Eyes stand-alone films and maybe not even market it as GI Joe, but Snake Eyes as his own property much like WOlverine did.

Obviously, you'd have other key characters around SE, like Scarlet, Hawk, Stalker (interpreters), but yeah, do the Snake Eyes story. Rework the Origin of Snake Eyes story a bit, and other Hama material. Once the public is familiar with SE and arguably the best portion of the mythos--expand out into broader GI Joe movies. EDIT: My concern would be though, that GI Joe is still such a recognizable tag, it is clearly still seen as having an importance for marketing. So, not sure how much that tag could be de-emphasized for a Snake Eyes movie.
