They said that about Ang Lee's Hulk too, and It did the first day or so and then word of mouth took over and it bombed. I expect the same here with a reboot in a few years with a Director that is not a hack.
Also I am sick and tired of people talking shit on people that god forbid don't like the tripe Paramount is feeding us. We have as much of a right to an opinion as you do to your misguided one.

I agree completely that if the movie and the line does well we will get good stuff after the line ends. Transformers has proven that. However I have very little hope that it will happen.

If 3 G.I. Joe movies are indeed made I am betting that Casper Van Dien stars in at least two of them. LOL.

If indeed G.I. Joe becomes a trilogy, I hope they retain a more episodic nature rather than try to become an epic saga. I always enjoyed the fact that the 007 films and others like the Lupin the 3rd anime films were not tied down to following the previous story arcs. It still gives writers the option of bringing in characters from and making reference to the previous films but doesn't handcuff them.
In some trilogies like LOTR and starwars, it makes sense, however in other cases like the Matrix and Pirates of the Caribbean, it becomes dogmatic. The "epic saga" approach has ruined the 007 franchise (IMHO) and I was really enjoying Harry Potter until it became a seven part wannabe Lord of the rings. How about keeping it simple and relying more on great story telling instead of trying to turn everything into an epic saga, imagine if they had done this with Matrix, look at Animatrix, any of those short stories would have made better films. Just my opinion guys and gals, feel free to tear me up, LOL.

Ang Lee took a comic property that should have been a big stompy action piece and turned it into a character drama. Also, the comic panel thing he had going on turned off alot of people. It simply failed to deliver what the trailers were promising.

Your opinion is as misguided as people that like the movie.

Old news, Quaid talked about this back when they started doing his Hawk interviews. But it's nice to see that everyone's on board.
