Count me amongst those who thought they would save EVILStane for the second movie. I figured he'd be fighting the Ten Rings guys for the first film. All the nice bits were just knife twists to make the betrayal hurt that much more. But also let Obie stew a bit more and let Bridges really cut loose as an actor when it all came out. Oh well.

As for the GI JOE video, I caught myself thinking over the concept of Snake Eyes painting. Japanese swordsman used to focus on calligraphy with the same focus and dedication as they did swordsmanship. The brush and the sword being one you see. Add that SE is a mix of the skills of a swordsman, a ninja and a special forces solider in a person. That draws similar parallels with the mixing of paints on a canvas make..... ok yeah way too much thought into this
