Snake Eyes was a failure of a reboot for the G.I. Joe franchise at Paramount. According to one of many movie’s stars Andrew Koji, it was a doomed undertaking from the beginning.
Snake Eyes was a reboot born out of the failed G.I Joe movies from the 2010’s that took so lengthy to return out that many followers seemingly didn’t even understand the movie flopped on the field workplace over two years in the past. The undertaking was panned by followers and critics alike. According to Andrew Koji, who performed the movie’s villain Storm Shadow, it was destined to fail as a consequence of an absence of integrity:
“After this, it could just all be downhill for me,” Koji instructed Inverse. “But at least for now [my experience on Warrior] makes me go, OK, I’d like to do stuff with integrity. And G.I. Joe really wasn’t that, was it?…Hollywood is just obsessed with telling the same old thing over and again. Firstly, remakes. Secondly, it’s got to be based on IP. Third, it’s so absurd because I’m just like, hold on. People want originality. Where is it? What is going on here?”
The G.I. Joe sequence is definitely a symptom of a bigger downside with Hollywood. While there’s nothing essentially damaged with a Snake Eyes movie, many movies primarily based on widespread IPs are made with none love, ardour, or, as Andrew Koji factors out, integrity. If studios need movies primarily based on IP to work, they should mix them with authentic execution and a ardour for the supply materials, not simply pumping movies out as quick as they will.
