Playing with Fire | |
| Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins / int_1cc9f5e5 | comment |
Playing with Fire: The Jewel of the Sun enables the wielder to burn anything in sight in an instant. Kenta uses it in his march on the Arashikage to burn guards alive, instantly vaporize his attackers, and blow up entire buildings and everyone inside. Tommy also ends up being tempted to use it against Kenta, which disqualifies him from leadership. | |

The Quiet One | |
| Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins / int_1da5941e | comment |
The Quiet One: Averted. The classic Snake Eyes is normally depicted as silent either due to a vow or due to injury. Snake Eyes in this movie, while maybe not a chatterbox, is not shy to hold conversations and there is no interest in showing him becoming silent like the classic version. Not yet, anyway. | |

At one point Akiko tells Snake he'll tell him the story of her scars if he can land a strike on her, so he just punches her in the face as soon as she stops talking. Later in said fight, once she's kicking his ass with a sword, he lands a non-lethal strike when she's distracted by Tommy on the phone. | |

Character Development: Snake Eyes goes from an unscrupulous, selfish man willing to betray his own morals by siding with Cobra, a terrorist organization, and break the trust of the people who brought him in, all in order to kill the man who murdered his father to a man who attempts to right his wrongs, starting with sparing and freeing his father's killer, stopping Kenta's assault on the Arashikage clan, and going after Tommy to prevent the latter from going down a dark path. | |

Adaptational Heroism | |
| Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins / int_3f45f1e6 | comment |
Adaptational Heroism: While many versions of Storm Shadow eventually take the heroic path, his early years are usually defined by the envy and fury he bears towards Snake Eyes. Here his Arashikage loyalties have him protecting Japan from the influence of Kenta and the Yakuza, and teaming up with the Joes against Cobra. It's only through a combination of Snake Eyes' betrayals and his own fury at Kenta making him use the stone that forces him into his traditional villainous roots. | |

Secret Test of Character | |
| Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins / int_3f7a958b | comment |
Secret Test of Character: The Hard Master's test of Snake Eyes involves both of them holding a bowl of water, with Snake challenged to get the bowl out of the Hard Master's hand without spilling a drop. Whereas Snake Eyes initially believes it to be a physical challenge, he realizes the actual way to pass is to simply ask the Hard Master to peacefully swap their bowls. Tommy's usage of the Jewel of the Sun in his attempt to kill Kenta out of rage and his hesitation in giving back the stone has Sen declare that Tommy will never lead the clan. | |

As the heroes confront Kenta for the final showdown, his minions raise their swords - and Scarlett and the Baroness just gun them down en masse. It would have killed Kenta too if not for the power of the stone. | |

Dark Is Not Evil: Snake Eyes, the main protagonist who dresses primarily in black, zigzags this. At the beginning, while he's not actively malicious, he's still an amoral man willing to betray his friends to sate his hunger for revenge. After he delivers the Jewel of the Sun to Kenta, he has a change of heart and becomes genuinely heroic. | |

Heel–Face Turn: Calling Snake Eyes an outright "villain" would be incorrect, but he spends the first half of the movie scheming against the Arashikage and assisting Kenta, only to realize the folly of his quest for revenge and become a full-fledged, true hero as he works to stop Kenta's annihilation of the Arashikage. | |

Hourglass Plot | |
| Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins / int_66907f54 | comment |
Hourglass Plot: Towards the beginning, Tommy strongly trusts Snake Eyes, wanting him to be his Blood Brother, while Akiko is suspicious of him (wisely so). Throughout the film, as she gets to know him better, Akiko begins to have more faith in Snake Eyes, coming to his aid when he is failing the third test and being the first to realize he is helping the Arashikage against Kenta's forces during the climax; the film ending with her and Snakes Eyes as friends. Tommy, on the other hand, begins to grow cold towards Snake Eyes as he realizes he's deceiving him, with him vowing to take his head after Snake Eyes steals the Jewel of the Sun, and still wanting to settle the fight between them even when he learns Snake Eyes is now on their side. Then, when Snake Eye's manipulations end up causing him to lose his blood right to lead the Arashikage, he leaves the clan and declares Snake Eyes his sworn enemy, to the point that he joins up with Cobra as Storm Shadow. | |

Lottery of Doom | |
| Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins / int_72737504 | comment |
Lottery of Doom: Augustine apparently likes to let his targets wager for their lives with a dice throw. Of course, the dice he gives his targets is loaded to always come up "snake eyes" (a pair of ones, the lowest possible outcome on a 2d6), so he always wins and gets to kill them. | |

The Faceless | |
| Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins / int_7abba202 | comment |
Snake Eyes himself, who was a blond-haired, blue-eyed Caucasian in the original comic and never removed his helmet or spoke in the previous movie continuity (although he was suit-acted by the Scottish Ray Park), is played here by Malaysian Henry Golding. Golding himself dryly noted that after all the people who accused him of not being Asian enough for Crazy Rich Asians, suddenly he's too Asian for this role.note Curiously and ironically enough, in the Japanese dub, he is voiced by the German-Japanese voice actor Subaru Kimura, who, just like Golding, doesn't look Japanese enough. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Kenta's near-apathy about Snake Eyes' early betrayal ("that's disappointing") and his non-lethal methods in the fight with Tommy - at one point giving him a gut strike that would have fatally wounded him if it hadn't been sheathed - are indicators he set the whole thing up to have Snake Eyes earn Tommy's trust. Oddly enough, he doesn't seem to care that Snake Eyes sided with the Clan for real; likely since Kenta no longer needed him. Tommy's Face–Heel Turn is subtly hinted at throughout the film, with his desire to take down Kenta at all costs, no matter the situation, along with his displays of rage and fury whenever he escapes his grasp. | |

Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: Kenta's victory was almost assured until he betrayed the Baroness and reneged on their deal. This leads to the latter playing a pivotal role in helping the Joes and Arashikage overwhelm and take down her former partner. Also, Snake Eyes ends up helping the good guys, because Kenta left him alone with his father's killer who revealed that he was hired by Cobra to do so. As well as giving Cobra one more enemy to deal with in the future. | |

Fixing the Game | |
| Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins / int_c6b2fdd1 | comment |
Fixing the Game: Snake Eyes' father was killed after being given a chance to save himself by rolling a pair of dice. If they landed on anything but snake eyes, he would have been spared. As Snake Eyes later learns, the killer used a pair of rigged dice, never intending to spare Snake's father. | |

Race Lift | |
| Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins / int_d7c3ba61 | comment |
Race Lift: Snake Eyes himself, who was a blond-haired, blue-eyed Caucasian in the original comic and never removed his helmet or spoke in the previous movie continuity (although he was suit-acted by the Scottish Ray Park), is played here by Malaysian Henry Golding. Golding himself dryly noted that after all the people who accused him of not being Asian enough for Crazy Rich Asians, suddenly he's too Asian for this role.note Curiously and ironically enough, in the Japanese dub, he is voiced by the German-Japanese voice actor Subaru Kimura, who, just like Golding, doesn't look Japanese enough. The Baroness is usually portrayed as a Caucasian hailing from America or Eastern Europe. The Spain-born Úrsula Corberó portrays the character in this movie. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: The Baroness, screwed over by Kenta and knowing she'll be faced with the G.I. Joes once he's defeated, takes the opportunity to flee the scene while the Joes are distracted fighting Kenta. | |

Action Girl: Scarlett is one of the premiere agents of G.I. Joe, and appropriately kicks ass in both physical combat and gunplay. | |

Blood Oath: Snake Eyes and Tommy cut their hands and shake them to swear loyalty to each other. Snake Eyes swiftly double-crosses him and steals the Jewel of the Sun with a rag stained with his blood, causing him to swear revenge. | |

Animal Motifs | |
| Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins / int_e2ccee25 | comment |
Animal Motifs: Snakes, naturally, for Snake Eyes. He's revealed to be a mole working for Kenta and Cobra so that he can kill his father's murderer (so he's a metaphorical snake), his heart is judged by three giant anacondas, who'll eat him if he's impure, and by the time he's officially gone through his Heel–Face Turn, he is given his iconic outfit and helmet, which has a visible scale pattern on the arms and legs. | |

Easily Forgiven | |
| Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins / int_f36c4f98 | comment |
Easily Forgiven: Snake Eyes, to a point. He lied to the Arashikage, manipulated Tommy and stole their precious Jewel of the Sun to hand it over to Kenta, who uses it to massacre at least dozens of Arashikage clan members. However, when he realizes the error of his ways and fights to stop Kenta, most of the Arashikage clan don't seem to hold his previous actions against him all that much, possibly in large part due to him passing the third test and impressing the three serpents. At the least, though, Sen did warn him never to betray the clan again. Also, since Tommy felt betrayed by his actions and lost the birthright of leading the Arashikage in the ensuing battle, and centers most of his rage against Snake Eyes for this. | |
