So the other day I was talking about the SNAKE-EYES movie costume (got some flack for my 7 rating, too!) and I was thinking about those darn commando pants. Then it dawned on me that the FIRST Snake-Eyes figure (pre-Ninja) wore "baggy" military pants! So check it out.....
The RAY PARK Snake-Eyes is a combination of the first two Snake-Eyes! From the waist up is VERSION 2 (albeit the 2001 version 2 version), and the waist down is VERSION 1. A nice amalgam to appease all Snake-Eyes fans, me thinks!
"Well, those fans are stupid-heads. And more importantly, wrong. Thereby they do not matter, silly." (seriously, v3-up are pretty lame)

Here's a pic to further visually demonstrate the amalgamnessisness! [Snake-Eyes Version-01 pants with Version-02 top!]
While I personally still prefer the awesome flawlessness of the "Ninja" Snake-Eyes, I'm starting to dig the "Ray Park" version for the movie. But it really comes down to how the costume is lit, shot and used.

Wow. I will say, Jim, you know your shit sometimes. A little bit scary at times, but we wouldn't have it any other way! GO JIMSMASH!
I really don't know much about movies or how they are made or anything. But my instinct is telling me they are going to use the Snake-Eyes costume by having Snake-Eyes wear it. ...just a guess.
hehehe
Hahaha, alright smartass! ;)
What I meant was if it looks cool when Ray Park is doing action stuff.... how they make use of it.
A costume can look cool in concept, but then silly on screen if handled poorly.
I knew thats what you meant. I was just being a smartass. :)
Actually until I read this post I didn't realize Ray Parks was Snake-Eyes. That suggests he won't have any speaking lines, right?
Hehehe...
Let's hope he doesn't have any speaking lines! Rumors are his character's "taken an oath of silence" opposed to being a mute due to horrific injuries from war.
.... then again, he had speaking lines as Toad in X-Men....

JimSmash should have been onset as an advisor!!
And after looking at your many Star Wars posts, you should have been in charge of the prequels, too!
