I think if any of those people are cast as Joes (maybe, maybe I could handle Tyrese Gibson...maybe...) I won't even go see the movie. But no. Sweet Fancy Moses, no. And I like Kristen Bell plenty, but....no. They're all too young; the Joes have to have SOME experience to be the super-elite SpecOps team.

Angelina Jolie as Baroness
Jennifer Garner as Scarlett

Would be GREAT!

I suppose we'll start seeing official casting in the upcoming weeks after the second drafts of the script is turned in.

We all want big names and actors but depending on the budget they'll have to cut corners. However, an Ocean's 13 cast of characters would be nice. Since, it won't entirely rely on CGI like Transformers, they should have some room for play. If i were an actor, i'd take a huge pay cut and take a percentage of what the movie takes in.

Steven Somers as Director..... I hated Van Helsing but enjoyed the Mummy movies. I hope he does the GI Joe fans justice.

That had me totally fooled. We really need to start these posts with "my picks" added to the beginning.

Agreed.

Duke - Nathan Fillion
Flint - Adrian Pasdar OR Paul Blackthorne
Lady Jaye OR Scarlet- Jen Garner

Cobra Commander - Tim Roth? Gary Oldman? Somebody who can really chew on some scenery.
Destro - Gerard Butler
Baroness - Kate Beckinsale (we know she can rock the catsuit, and she's worked with Sommers before. Unfortunately, we've also heard her Eastern European accent...)
Major Bludd - Chris Eccleston (also a good choice for Ripper, as I've seen someone else suggest)

Naturally I don't think any of these cast choices will actually happen, but they're just the cast of the GI Joe Movie that plays periodically in my brain.

I have seen very few fan suggestions that would actually be good choices. This is one of them.
