I know that most of the cast from ROC won't be returning but I still have one question, why? The cast wasn't the problem for the first movie, it was just a poor script and bad direction (I'm not talking about Stephen Sommers). If they had gone the gritty, war-film direction that the sequel is taking, it would have been a better film. So why did they need to get rid of the first film's cast?

Because the more you can distance yourself from the feces that is ROC the less you're gonna stink.

If they open with a scene of Tatum Channing getting blown into tater tots I will be the happiest camper ever. It would be akin to Lucas starting Rise of the Clones with Jar Jar Binks getting split in half by a lightsaber......

they should have kept Rachel Nichols IMHO, she was a decent Scarlett. The rest I'm glad to see gone.

Weird, the only person I wanted gone was the only one that stayed. :/

It's to reinforce the "soft reboot" that the movie is supposed to be. Yes, it's a sequel, but it's a "whole new direction."
Could be that the "old" team is just in reserve/off-screen (maybe we'll get a comic-book explaining what happened/happens with them), or maybe they get blown away in that big attack. Hard to say. But clearly the reason is to distance itself from the first movie as much as possible while still technically being a sequel. And yeah, when Marlon Wayans turns in one of the strongest performances in your film.... |

Snake Eyes is still there. The rest of the cast is just filler between the ninja saga action.
