I know that directors and writers want to put their spin on movies based on old stuff, but I sure do wish for someone to do it with an obvious love for the old stuff.
It's been argued that it wouldn't fly, but I really want to see the source material, the designs materialize on the productions. Cobra Commander needs a blue suit and a hood or chrome maak and helmet. Snake Eyes should NOT have lips. Can we get a Batman with a blue cowl? Would it hurt to give the Wolverine a 2 tone brown suit with his iconic mask? I want Transformers that resemble their G1 counterparts.

If they made 80's toy movies with 80's toy designs, they would get laughed out of theaters. TF and GI Joe movie franchises are already enough of a joke as is.

I do wish they'd try to draw more of the good stuff from the source material.

BUT

I do also wish they'd know when to leave stuff behind.

Snake Eyes with the lips is actually toy accurate.



And they did try to correct things a little with the second Gi Joe movie, but not enough people went to see it.
