| True but he would have looked better with it. Speaking of which, the way Snake Eyes got his visor in that one....well the reason he had to wear a mask in that one...THAT was awesome. Quote: |

| Compared to the amount of money they will use on the CGI and special effects, the mask is nothing.

it makes great sense artiscly to place the bad ninja in white with no mask, and the good ninja in black with a mask. It plays with what people are used to and draws attention to the characters and their personalities | |

| To me, its like Optimus Prime not wearing a mask/mouthplate in battle, and we all know how that turned out last year. Both of them having a mask, and ninja costumes shows that they are the rivals, giving the viewer the sense that a match is inevitable between these two. For that matter, its like saying, "oh, that chrome mask Destro has, yea OUT, and, Cobra Commander having a mask or hood, yea OUT too, lets give him a nebulizer and goggles".

It also turned out splitting the fan base the same way as Storm Shadows Costume is.
Some like it,
Some Hate it,
and some just think its cool to see storm shadow in a movie no matter what he looks like as long as there is a kickass sword fight.
Can I have that third option added to the poll?
