I agree with you!
Also on the topic of Snake Eyes’s race change, I frankly do not give one flippity floppity flying funk. GI Joe is such a dead franchise that the fact that a masked man is half Asian and half British instead of being a white Vietnam war veteran or a Scottish stunstman doesn’t matter one bit to anyone outside of our little circle. Like who literally cares? When I was a kid and first heard about GI Joe before I was a Joe fan I actually assumed Snake Eyes was Asian because his “brother” Storm Shadow was and because they were both ninjas! So yeah I think it’s really trivial and not a deal breaker at all. It’s better than him lifting Thor’s hammer after being trained by an ancient goddess in order to duel her father. Many people here want the movie to faithfully recreate the Marvel comics, but I think it is honestly better that they’re going with something new, so that way I can just watch the movie excitedly waiting for it to unfold, instead of playing “spot the scene” like with Scarlett Johansson’s Ghost in the Shell (Ooh look! It’s the garbage truck! That means she’s gonna turn invisible soon! Oh look she did! Yay! This is exactly like the original!) btw I did really like that movie, it’s just that I would prefer them not to do that with GI Joe, as it made the movie seem really stale if you’ve seen the original. Joe is Dying and this garage they keep vomiting out just keeps it there. I’m not going to simply go “oh that’s such an awesome medicore figure” to keep it on the second string shelves. Hasbro needs to release GI Joe in Fans hands, and stop Getting these amateur designers who are fucking up our shit. I’m not even going into their distribution team.

I agree , I don’t mind Henry playing Snake Eyes. And am super stoked for the movie. I just don’t like they show his face . Origins or not. And if we are talking Snake Eyes in arashikage, we are FAR from where he began. Just saying. They should kee his face shadowed, at least show they are respecting his character.

If fans didn’t fight for Deadpool being R we would have gotten hot garage. If fans didn’t fight for Sonics’ bullshit ass design to he change it would have been a train wreck. If fans didn’t fight for and voice their opinion high chance SE origins wouldn’t have went back into production to correct a few things. Some shit examples but you catch my drift. I’m glad GI Joe is trying to live, but we as fans have to fine tune it.

For me it's constant, non-stop, long winded bitching and moaning about the kid's line that people were doing...the kid's line. Before the collectors stuff was revealed...they bitched about the kid's line. And I'm not talking about people who just simply stated their opinions about the kid's line. I'm referring to the people who constantly bitched about it with long winded rants and who seemed genuinely pissed off. You'd think Hasbro murdered their children. You can actually judge by people's posts here how they would act in the stores if they couldn't find their toys.

Yeah, man, this exactly. Combine the whiny, often angry, entitlement with thinly veiled racism and misogyny and there are a whole lotta fuckers in this "hobby" I know for a fact I don't want to know in real life. All they do is back up the stereotypes about toy collectors/comic geeks/sci fi nerds and creep me right the fuck out. It's weird to me how they can get so angry at a toy company, but are totally cool with obviously real sketchy turds who post ridiculous shit on message boards.

At first I didn't really believe that there were so many hateful nerds, until I saw some guy literally say that "Falcon is a garbage character. We all know that in real life there is no such thing as a black hero." I was actually shocked when I saw it. I was just like dude what's your problem? And then day after day in the Star Wars community I am bombarded with "Rey single-handedly destroyed the Star Wars brand! Lucas NEVER intended a woman to be a jedi!" and then those same people campaign for Gina Carano's boring character to be brought back. At one point I would argue against their bs but now I don't even bother, as they always reply with the same thing: "You're just a virtue signaling SJW Reylo Disney shill!" Like anyone who dares defend Disney Star Wars (besides the Mando) gets instantly labeled a Reylo by these people. And these guys are all GROWN ADULTS. No wonder nerds have such a bad reputation. Now I understand there is plenty of normal folks into this stuff too, but the sheer amount of weirdos is actually astonishing. Last edited by Yeet; 04-10-2021 at 11:58 AM.. |
