I'm all outta 'hater juice', so I'd say great news. Regardless of the uninspiring suit, I really liked how Byung Hun Lee portrayed Storm Shadow. He was ruthless, efficient and the deadliest s.o.b with throwing stars. Ok, the only one with throwing stars, but still a bad ass with those joints. Regardless of how I feel about the first one, I'm happy they're going ahead with pt.2.

I just hope they make the costumes more like the cartoon and comic book versions.
I hope SS also joins the Joes and the real CC shows up, not the Doctor. |

For example if in O.H. they show Cobra Commander and Destro escape and whatknot but the writers of the ROC sequel turns in a better version or for that matter has them as background villians to another threat that has no ties and (one step further) contradicts O.H. Paramount and Hasbro will surely disregard O.H. as canon, agreed? Same thing goes for the prequel and or videogame. I would say they are all in the same universe but far from Canon.... IMO. |

There is no canon in G.I. Joe. The comics, toys and cartoon all contradict themselves and each other. Unlike Lucas with Star Wars, there is noone keeping the Joe narrative consistent. It's always been told in a "seat of the pants" manner.

Stormshadow will return for the sequel but as to his role in the movie people need to stop spreading rumors. The script isn't even finished and unlike the first script this one is under lock and key. Even the actors don't know the plot and won't know for a while. People like shin need to stop spreading faulse rumors. We all know by his previous post that he loves stormshadow but come on it can only go so far.

This, and its why all of the star wars stuff actually flows together from start to finish and out of order in anyway you want to fit it together, GI JOE is more like a string that gets cut and a new string gets sewen into it when they make a newer version. Its the same old story with GI JOE, hand full of OG characters with thier names slapped on em like storm shadow snake eyes duke and scarlet etc etc in various outfits that get repainted 456 times with each incarnation, the character never evolves beyond whats already known or a name gets shifted around due to licesne issues (whihc they apprenlty never have with Transfomers or Star Wwars btw). It will always be the same they just cant ever kill off storm shadow permanently because they always have some lame "ninja" trick to cheat death, like that actually can happen, I think the force is a more belivebal emake belive story then Ahh bastardson I slow my heart and fall asleep in artic water and come back to wake in belly of Killer Whale to seek revenge on you! Huza!' I am going to laugh if they bring back Covergirl with an "oops we really liked her and she got sewen up and shes all better now due to nanomite technology!" bs put on..

The Expanded Universe is largely a mess loaded with contradictions, the only thing is much of it is retconned. Lucas pretty much destoyed his own OT with the PT, the storylines didnt match and there was plenty of duct-taping.
I suppose only way to work Storm Shadow into the GI JOE team was to have him underconver as a US agent, which Hawk knew about but not Snake-Eyes(problem with this is the flashbacks). But he did spare Hawk's life. But like I said a few times beforehand, the new GI JOE movie needs to be rebooted for lack of a better term. |

That did happen before America's Elite in the DDP run of G.I. Joe. I think this was also before Master & Apprentice Vol 2; Snake Eyes sees him traveling with Duke and CO, is like WTF?!, and Duke explains that while he may not like it, Storm Shaodw is helping them out, or something to that matter.

We could fit Storm Shadow in that way, possibly as part've Hawk's proto-GI JOE team As he claimed he lost (GI JOE)men too(when we're first introduced to the GI JOE in the PIT when Duke arrives), so we're left with the impression GI JOE has been active prior to the events leading up to the attack on the warheads/ Duke's team.
Flip side is, nobody wants a good guy Storm Shadow. But can I rather see them perhaps having some Viper-Eels rescue SS body from the waters and inject with nano's to heal him and that fucks up his wiring and now he is " evil"?! I think this was also Hama's writing, except he wasnt working with the Joe team, he was out for a personal Vendetta to seek out and kill the assassin of his Uncle, which so happened to have led to Cobra and then later on he went under Venom's/Mindbender's brainwave scanner. |
