i was really excited for Gi Joe 2(still am) when i heard bout the Rock playing roadblock, snake eyes having no mouth & Flint. I was even more excited 2 hear that Bruce "YippyKiYayMuthaFucka" Willis was in negotiations to star in the film. But all these original characters seem pointless. over 30 years of classic characters and spinoffs and they decide to create half the cast. i kno the film just started filming but theres 2 many characters to go and create new ones. if anything jus change up a classic characters history or appearance a tad. anybody else bothered? & is there already a thread with this same exact topic??!?!?!?!???

Not bothered by it at all. It's going to work out just fine.

It depends on what they are actually doing. IDW churn out a ton of new characters each month, but they are basically green shirts

Isn't changing classic characters what started the hell storm around RoC in the first place? Besides, I'm thinking some of these original characters might turn out to be classic characters and we're just being fed fake names to keep us in the dark. But that's just a guess.
By giving them names and some general info, you create an attachment which increases the impact when they die (see the first Predator for one note characters who relied on largely on the actors to create any sense of "character").

Since this is probably the last Joe movie... ever (lol). I would hope they would have more core characters in the film. If for no other reason than to have them represented as toys. However... new character action figures would probably fit in better than the umpteenth version of the same character.

I'm sick to christ of seeing variations of the same characters released as toys year after year.
I say the more new characters the better. A core group of known Joes is fine to lead the film. But the people whinging at the new characters would be the same ones crying over changing, or god forbid, killing off one of the classics... Stop the whinging and wait and see. The film hasn't been made yet, don't be so quick to judge it. |
