I REALLY enjoyed Transformers as a film. I had a few toys and watched the cartoon, but stopped when I was 10. I don't remember the intricate details of certain Transformers and all their character traits, but that was an awesomely fun movie. The CG was really solid, the story was good, the acting was good, the writing was good.
GI Joe, I'm not expecting the same thing. I'm really hopeful I'll be surprised by this film. I don't need it to be the GI Joe I remember, I just need it to be a good, fun film. |

as for the movie...even after it comes out, the haters (me) will not want to swallow their pride and admit it was good if its good (not likely based on what we already know)...the defenders won't want to swallow their pride either and will defend a piece of crap if it happens to be one (more than likely)....soooo, we will be having this conversation even after the movie... |

If it's crap, then I'll freely admit it's crap. It's not a pride thing.
But I can see where it would be from a haters point of view. Because you are hating something that isn't concrete yet. You're hating stuff that has been heard and ideas that have been heard but aren't concrete. So yeah, I can see it being a pride thing from that point of view. It's kind of hard to hate/defend something that hasn't been fully made yet. That's what my point has always been. I don't think I've once said "this will be a great movie", all I've ever said is that "it's kind of silly to hate on something without actually seeing it". But I can see it being harder for a "hate" to say "this was a good movie" because it means you bitched/moaned/complained for nothing and look kind of foolish.

I think everyone needs to look at this movie in two ways:
1- as a stand alone movie with it's own mythos/lore/characters and story/plot. Was it entertaining? Was the acting good? Was the CG good? 2- as a G.I. Joe movie. Did it stay true to the core concepts? Did the changes make sense in this story?

Sigh...................yes.

This statement sounds like you want the movie to fail.You can't wait to log onto the Tank after the movie release to........prove you were right all along and that the others who tried to be optimistic about the movie are disappointed.Does the thought of the movie sucking get you excited?I am confused.
I am not sure what we are getting with this movie just like everyone else,but I do know one thing...........I want it to be good.Whether or not it will be remains to be seen. But your right....I cant wait to log on after I go see it on opening day with my pre ordered Tickets to see how everyone feels....about the great Sigma.......I mean GI Joe Movie. Ill bet you $10 that everything that dude saw Trailer wise is 100% correct....because his site is one of my Favs and he never was wrong about a trailer he saw that we havent.........You can hope all you want, but Im sorry this Crap Fest is going to suck, besides if the movie studio was sure are even thought for one instance it was going to be good....it would be out in May, June, July........but dont worry I will be there on opening day hoping it all pan out for the better.......

We see a couple of terrorist attacks, some G.I. Joe guys dressed like Snake Eyes jumping out of a plane,
This movie is going to Blow......even this guy who saw the trailer thinks so. You movie lovers are going to be soooo pissed off. This movie isnt going to help Joe its going to bury it........sad really. For all the movie Defenders.......this bowl of crap is why you stick to the source and not change things. When you try and modernize stuff you sometimes make it worst. Looks Resolute is going to be the only saving Grace. And Before someone says well you havent seen both.....Well Everything seen about the movie has been a stinker....Every little Screen shot about Resolute has rocked.....well Except pilot Destro and Samuri SS........

I think you should have more faith dude.....Ill make a post first thing an admit Im wrong, if its good. I doubt though that....that post will be needed.....and whats all this talk about Pride? Pride can hurt you to......why would any movie basher let pride get in the way of a Great (if it turns out that way) GI Joe Movie? Weve waited most of our lives for one......dont be silly......Where does Pride factor in on any of this......Jesus its a movie.....not an Ex GF...... |

G.I. Eddie was the one talking about pride and neither "side" admitting they were wrong.
I've seen alot I like about the movie. For one, I like the uniforms. I think they look pretty cool. Yes, it sucks that the all-black comes after the X-Men, so that comparasion gets made. But I think the all-black works better for the Joes then it does for the X-Men. And for a live action movie, I think these uniforms work pretty well compared to the multi-colored that was in the comics and figures. Would some kind of camoflauge been better? Probably. Scarlett looks hot. Baroness looks hot. Storm Shadow looks pretty bad-ass. I hate that the tattoo is on the outside of Snake-Eyes uniform. Bad design idea there. The actor that's playing Destro looks right to me. So yeah, I've seen alot that I like.
