I’m getting flashbacks when the Fantastic Four crew of 2015 was shitting all over the earlier ones and look what happened there, the earlier ones are masterpieces compared to Trank’s 2015 F4 film! Not saying this will be the same but always leaves a bad taste when you read articles where the new crew is bad mouthing earlier movies to male them look better to everyone.

True but Snake Eyes is GI Joe. People hear GI Joe and they think Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow. They see a pic and they know who they are. Not so much with the others. Its Snake Eyes, Storm Shadow, Cobra Commander, Destro, and Baroness and maybe Zartan. Thats who people know. It maybe title Snake Eyes but its a GI Joe movie. Same with Bumblebee. Its bumblebee but still a transformers movie.

Despite the diverse and historic value found in the library of Joe file cards, yet another ninja flick.
Another member hit the nail perfectly. Snake Eyes & Storm Shadow are G.I. Joe for the younger generations. Forget that many of the original Joe team served in SE Asia, or the various birthplaces, branches of service and training, and insights on conduct and behavior on each Joe for nearly 2 decades. That thing about Snake Eyes being WIA in VN? Yeah, nah....too real for the kids. Arishekage or whatever along with the whole Snake Eyes/Storm Shadow time-bending snore-fare falls below Scoop the Joe on my interest list. I dunno. I’m probably not the only veteran on here but I’ll say having served deepened my appreciation for the Joe team. They put a lot into their character development. Too much artistic liberty with other characters, and now G.I.Joe is in plot prison because of the ninja story.

It is a sci fi toy/comic for kids. Hama did the SE Asia thing because he knew something about it and it was familiar to him and thought it needed sharing. Hasbro is trying to pull an audience and it is why they did a movie just about bumblebee and now they did it about Snake Eyes. They are the two most popular of each Franchise and who most would recognize. Wanna do a show about Duke and his friends known as Gung Ho and Flint? You and a few others would be the only ones sitting in the theater and it would make almost no money.

The Vietnam war ended in 1973. Any character that served in that war would be an old man now.
Plenty of movies have had back stories "aged up" to have people that fought in Afghanistan or Iraq, this one is no different. |
