Paramount not wanting Snake Eyes still isn't as bad as the asinine and unimaginitive ideas for the movie and delusional perspective of the fans. at least execs at Paramount have an excuse -- they don't know G.I. Joe.
well, I guess Joe fans have an excuse too, because they apparently don't have single ounce of imagination, creativity or any knowledge of movie making or story telling in general, hence the mental dependency on just reliving the same experience over and over that is cried for. so Paramount not knowing the importance of SE's is the Joe fan equivalent of voicing what should be in a movie and what would make a good story.

That really sux to hear that Paramount didn't respect the GI Joe property enough to consider Snake Eyes.

What I got from the comentary was, it wasn't that Paramount didn't want Snake-Eyes, they didn't understand/like Snake-Eyes wearing a mask all the time and not speaking. It took them a while to finally approve the costume. That's why Snake-Eyes is in the background in some sceens and wearing a different costume. Those scenes were shot before the costume was approved.

SE is not vital to the Joe franchise. He's part of the Joe franchise and his importance will vary with each individual fan. From Paramount's point of view, which is the PoV of making a movie accessible to the majority of the views (which are not Joe fans but average movie goers), SE is an odd character to put into a film. And without the foil of an opposite ninja, what's the purpose of SE's ninja existence? And if you get rid of the ninja aspect for the movie, then what does having a silent commando bring to the movie's story? Nothing. You can have SS without SE, just don't have the interconnection in the back story and you have a bad-ass ninja working for the bad guys.

well I think paramount would have put snake eyes in regardless because I'm sure whoever handled the movie would have had to have taken notice of his presence. and I think they got what they wanted out of the movie...you either LOVE IT or love to hate it or have no strong feelings either way. so with that said...everybody wins. Plus...if anything it reignited the franchise so which means we will get more movies/cartoons/comics etc. so yeah...everybody wins!

God, I love how even though the movie is done and already out on DVD, people still bitch about it. Who cares if Paramount didn't want Snake-eyes? He got in the film and was pretty cool. not everyone liked the movie, but it's done, no need to add your 2 cents on how it should have been made. Maybe when you make billions of dollars and buy your own studio, then acquire the rights, ok go for it. Till then just go watch the version of GI Joe you liked. Just cause the movie was made doesn't mean the other versions were wiped out of existence.
