The thing I find bothersome about this is how our society has become so entitled to entertainment that it sparks these huge uproars on the internet. It's a new take on a movie from a toyline that came out when I was a kid. Yeah, I loved the toys. Yeah, I loved the story. It's being remade, and it's different now. I probably won't like it as much as the old stuff. I may not even like it at all. At the end of the day, it is just a movie, just entertainment. It isn't the sword I am willing to fall on. I got other shit to get upset about in life.

For the record I was not happy that DUKE didnt have blonde hair. I mean if Chris evans can dye his hair to play Capt America how hard is it have tatum do the same. its a detail that about the character. And look I get it you can chalk up anything and everything to saying its a reboot. I am DC comic fan trust me I get the whole elseworlds thing every 6 months. BUT its honestly insulting for Hollywood and the SJWs to keep up this pattern and expect fans to take your approach and say "well its a reboot" "it doesnt matter" well sure in isolation it may not matter much at all. BUT THERE IS A PATTERN......across all media. Comics (DC MARVEL) TV shows WB, Pro wrestling WWE, Disney, Starwars, MARVEL MCU, ESPN, Gillete, NIKE, twitter, facebook, STARWRS toys, WWE Toys, GI JOE toys dont even exists cause they would be classified as TOXIC masculinity. So Mr. ok lets take your POV its a reboot sure. but are you in good faith gonna tell me there is no pattern to all this?

diversity? idk whatver agenda hollywood wants to push. when these movies come out and they race swap and gender swap why did they do it? what was the actual reason behind it? they could just as easily left the character true to the source material but they didnt....why? what was the logic?

another thing about a broader audience AVENGERs the most profitable movie EVER. doesnt have a very diverse cast.... Where is the Native American, Chinese american, (dont say wong) Japanese, Mexican American, Cuban american, where is the Cajin, where is the Asian Female, Pacific Islander, etc etc? (all of which GI JOE has) My point is avengers did pretty well and had a fairly broad appeal good stories tend to do that regardless of race and gender. A good story transcends tribes and nationalities. It is my firm believe that our society in its advanced intellect has forgotten that.

here is the thing.....if these movies these properties are simply entertainment things. "they are not the end of the world" if they dont really matter at all that much....if they didnt shape childhoods, nor imaginations, nor provide escape form pain and suffering....if they are just fucking movies that dont matter at all and they are not the end of the world nor really even important in life at all.
THAN WHY ARE WE ON A GI JOE FORUM............................................. .................................................. .................................................. ..why does the Hisstank even exists at all. I clearly missed something cause none of this "matters" .....hm maybe it never did.

Studio stirs up controversy gets more people talking about they're film, when movie comes out both sides watch or hate watch, and studio make more money then they would have if they didn't start controversy in the first place.
