Then have been judging this movie just by pics. W/E they want all the spoilers so then they can say WoW. I think the movie is gonna be awesome and Im surprised no one has mentioned the crap they were saying on how the trailer was gonna be horrible.
I think the trailer is better then the TF2, and the Fast and Furius and The Land of the Lost. By far the best trailer tommorrow. |

That was a great trailer. Looks to be a great action film. BUT, nothing in that footage screamed "G.I.Joe". Having Snake-Eyes and Storm Shadow getin' bizzy with the swords, registered a whisper in relation of what could have been a great G.I.Joe movie. I really dig the way there portraying Destro. I'll be on line to purchase my tickets, even though that was never a issue with me. To not see it, is not a option. Hopefully now that they gave a peak, I'd like to raise my glass of optimism, and toast to many more snippets. Cheers!

Looks good so far, but as others have said, trailers can be deceiving ...

My point wasn't about who it was but that the scene was designed to clearly see the face. The face has a nice clear path through the shattering glass. Thanks for the pic, though!

Why all the hate? It's quite simple. Characters we care about have been handed over to America's answer to Uwe Boll, Stephen Sommers. The costume design is laughably bad: a mouth on Snake Eyes and those pants, Storm Shadow in leather and everyone in black "tech" suits. The use of Ripcord and Heavy Duty is ridiculous. What, Stalker and Roadblock read the script and bailed? That's supposed to be Breaker? I'm not looking for slavish devotion to the comics, cartoon or even the figures. I just wish the movie had been made by people who are fans and at least gave a damn about the Joes and weren't trying to make the equivalent of a 3rd rate video game.
Sure the cartoon was campy and reality wasn't always the basis for the tech. So now we have a movie that has obiviously removed the ridiculous from the cartoon and added its own brand of absurdity. Joes are badasses that don't need to steal BATs, strip out the guts and use them as power ranger suits.

I pitch this film as Mission: Impossible with a touch of Iron Man and James Bond. It looks like it's gonna hit the box office like Transformers. It looks like Action movie fans who look for holy shit moments are gonna watch this instead of Transformers. Victoria's Secret fanatics prefer to watch this because of Karolina Kurkova. All the best hopes for this film's success. YO JOE!!!!

Joe is based on a team of highly trained individuals that already has a rich history that could have been transformed into a movie with just minor adjustments. But no we get homongenized, hollywood, ground chuck thats more fat than actual meat.

---POSSIBLE SPOILERS---
It's a military tech action flick, mixed with homages to the joes of old and the new onscreen vision of the joes. It's a popcorn flick. But don't let the corny card back images defuse your hopes or fool you into thinking this is some street fighter garbage. Here's how the script is by using movies we've probably all seen and at least know about... Because there's a lot of characters think of this movie being handled like SERENITY where each character has their moment to "shine"... The action sequences pan out like the action sequences in an INDIANA JONES MOVIE. What I mean is that there's about 3.5-4 of them set thru the movie, and they are all very long and very cool. BARONESS is very John Woo inspired. And if the sword fight between SNAKE EYES and STORM SHADOW pans out like it's written, it's more epic than the 12 minute duel between ANAKIN SKYWALKER AND OBI-WAN KENOBI. HAWK is a hardass, but fair. DESTRO is perfectly arrogant and the mask makes sense. THE DOCTOR has a cool twist and is not so campy looking when you understand why he looks like he does in that image we've seen. It makes perfect sense. The Vipers play more like RANGE VIPERS crossed with ALLEY VIPERS in the film. They are very tough, and are good in all conditions with twists about how they get to be Vipers. They sorta encompass all the vipers we know and love into 1 Viper model. It's as close to R as and more-than-likely a PG-13 movie will be. RIPCORD is not bad at all. He's seriously tough, but can lighten the mood. but his jokes are not corny. They are more like John McClane type jokes. Not pure comedy. SCARLETT has a VERY interesting bit with SNAKE EYES that will be one of the more memorable scenes not only in this move, but of all the scenes in all of the summer movies. The budget for this movie is more than the first Transformers movie because there's a lot of practical expensive f/x and only CG when needed. BREAKERS eyepiece is essentially like a computer screen. And is important or the team. HEAVY DUTY has a great scene that's like Blaine's in Predator. If you get what I mean. The ZARTAN pic on the back of his card is one of his civilian disguises. He looks waaay different on the page a few times. And plays a key part in really screwing the JOES at one point.That outfit he's wearing in what we saw is to not spoil something cool about him, that's why it looks so normal. It's the only shot they could really use to keep the best of him a secret. There kinda is a reference to TORPEDO. Whether that remained in the script is a mystery to me. There are def homages to other JOES that we'll see in a possible sequel. One in particular that would def be in the sequel, and he's an important one that we all like. SCARLETT has a LADY JAYE type deal going on with her arrows. The RAM is present and has a cool scene where we'll go "That's the RAM and it's badass!" They are def not in the black suits all the time. AND there's a reason why they NEED the suits. It's not just like poof an they are there. They are explained. And it's a necessity or the JOES to have them to keep up with DESTRO and his M.A.R.S stuff. Because basically the JOES are outgunned by DESTRO'S cool weapons and stuff. The script was online for about 3 weeks under the shooting codename "Dark Sky", which is why it was so hard to find when searched for. DUKE is a force to be reckoned with. He's a real badass. " |
