Why didn't they roll it out in May when the summer blockbuster season began? Of course I concede that last argument if the film wasn't finished yet.
Maybe because Paramount did not want Star Trek and G.I. Joe competing in the same month? Same reason why Star Trek and Transformers did not premiere in the same month, it's the same studio, they are going to space things out, not kill off profits from either film by having them compete in the same month.

Ah, my bad. I must have misunderstood all those posts and threads which praise it and badmouth people who have a different opinion. I guess members who create threads like "Marlon Wayans is going to be a cool Ripcord" must have seen an advance screening in order to make such a positive judgement call.
This is what I have been trying to get at, the whole badmouthing is ridiculous and stupid. It's stupid to blindly hate and/or defend something. I respect the fact that everyone is entitled to an opinion, in the end, most of what has been said is subjective to personal taste; the problem is when fans(doesn't matter which side) takes it to the point of using every movie thread or unrelated topic to complain about the movie and beat a dead horse. For example, we can have a thread about Snake Eyes' sword and the symbols etched in from the movie and out of nowhere someone could come in and derail the thread with complaints about the movie that have NOTHING to do with the topic at hand.
There are some people who are neither hater nor defender, just guys willing to give the damn movie a chance. I thought Sky Crawlers would rule but was VERY disappointed afterwards, and I thought TF wasn't going to be good but ended up loving it. So I'm going to see Rise of Cobra to see how it turns out for myself. This whole labeling thing has become ridiculous.
