I can't see how it could have possibly helped. Barely anyone saw it, and most who did didn't care for it. That said, maybe some kids got to see it and thought it was cool and will end up finding better Joe content later.
Paramount has no excuse on screwing up Joe. It's gotta be ego and the fact that they don't respect the property or the audience. Because Joe should be a slam dunk every time. Expendable/MI/Bond/Bourne in a blender and sprinkle on a touch of the Jet Li solo film style. Easy money. There are a hundred solid issues of source material, and a huge cast of great characters to pull from. The cast they had in this film could have delivered a great Snake Eyes origin story had Hollywood had any real interest in doing one. They simply don't.
