SPOILERS...
1. Duke, Zartan and Firefly all dead... Puzzling.
Duke will never see the Baroness recover, so it would have been nice if "Magic Mike" was just put out of commission for the film -- imprisoned by the POTUS or something.
Firefly deserved it for the killing of the Joes, sure, but so does Storm Shadow in ROC.
Zartan will never run the Dreadnoks now in this reality. That's a missed opportunity imho.
2. Destro totally forgotten? Why? "Screw you, Destro." I don't get it. CC had him totally under control. He would have made a great sychophant to stoke the Commander's ego, if nothing else...
3. No explanation for Storm Shadow's miraculous "recovery" after being sliced and frozen by Snake-Eyes in ROC. Why was he considered on the "wanted list". Wouldn't he be considered KIA in the first film? I sure wouldn't be looking for him if I were in charge of military intelligence.
4. Lady Jaye's real Christian name is "Jaye"? Why the change? Loved it that Colton always called her "Brenda". Some sort of inside joke?
5. Where are the original Joes? Dead? Retired? Duke replaced Hawk at some point. Are we talking years here between the two films, or just months? Would have been nice to know if Hawk, Scarlett, Breaker, Heavy Duty and Ripcord were reassigned or something. That was pretty vague.
6. Roadblock mentions serving on the team for 6 years alongside Snake-Eyes, so we have to assume that the two were there from the beginning, perhaps before ROC ever happened.
7. Flint really should have wore his beret at least once! I mean, c'mon!!! Throw us old schoolers a bone, man!
