I hope they rewrite the G.I. Joe storyline, do it right. Becasue most of the characters are Special Ops trained and only some that are regular military trained. The charcater that ARE NOT Special Ops trained and should be in the movie are Duke, Scarlet, Lady Jay, General Hawk and Dusty. The charcaters that are Special Ops trained that should be in the movie are, Falcone Army Special Forces(AKA The Green Berets)trained, is either Duke's big or little brother. Snake Eye SHOULD NOT be consider or seen as a ninja at all, but as the BEST Of BEST in Special Ops, who is both Army Special Forces and Delta Force trained. Snake Eye's choice of weapons are the SOPMOD M4 and the MP5 SD2 depending on the mission. Also Snake Eye should be a Special Ops soldier who is very good in CQB, the whole ninja idea on Snake Eye would be a VERY STUPID thing, but not as the BEST Of BEST in Special Ops. Beach Head he is Navy Seal trained, Torpedo also Navy Seal trained like Beach Head, Low-Light he is Army Special Forces trainted, who is a Sniper and his choices of weapon is the M24 rifle and the Berrett 82A1 .50-Cal. rifle depending on the mission. Flint he is Army Ranger trained Air-Borne a chopper pilot who is Army Special Forces trainted and was part of the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment(AKA Night Stalkers)before joining G.I. Joe. Those are the characters that should be in the movie and that should be their backgrounds. Terms and things that should be talked about in the movie are HALO jump, laser target designator, ALICE pack, Ghillie suit, LST-5C satellie radio, dirty bomb, arms dealers, Fort Bragg, Fort Benning, Coronado, Ca, small boat, rope insertion, C4, and claymore mine I think if the movie makers go this route it would be a very good movie and here there of what the heck from movie goers. Cobra Commander Should be the leader of the other side not Destro at all.

I'm Not Liking This Storyline At All! Hopefully The Story Will Get Rewritten. Is Zartan Going To Be In The Movie? If He Is I Think Keifer Sutherland Would Be Good In That Role!

So basically what I get out of that is, Cobra Commander will barely be seen (if at all) so they can save him for the seguel... and you all know I'm right on that assumption.
