Today, Paramount released another publicity pic of SNAKE-EYES (source). Its from the same photoshoot from yesterday's pic. Below is a lightened version for better detail lookin', care of yours truly.
The pic on the right is from Image Comics' GIJOE #1 (2001), art by DAVID MICHAEL BECK. It's crazy how the costumer clearly heavily referenced this one image in designing the movie costume. Look at his forehead lines and even the arched "swirl" in his arm. Hey, fine by me - go to the source is what I'm always yelling... although, this IS the 2001 version, heh. I wonder if Beck got paid for his design? Doubtful.The costume is growing on me. Like I said yesterday, if the pants were the same material as the upper-half, I would have ranked it higher. Still pretty freaking cool, though!
No UZI, yet, though. Come on guys... you're doing so well right now.... let's see him with an UZI!! When one thinks of Snake-Eyes, they immediately also think "Samurai Sword" and "Uzi". It's like Luke Skywalker and a lightsaber. Uzi. Sword. It's who he is.
Uzi wantie!! RATATATATATAT!!!!!

Nice one, Jim!
Looks like there wont be an Uzi:
"...He's the world's greatest ninja, but he's also next-generation. He's not afraid to use a sword one second, and a split-second later he's pulling out his Glock," says director Stephen Sommers...

Ray Park is Snake Eyes! Thats a good step if you ask me. At least he will move like he should. (not sure if you have already confirmed this titbit)
