Ok so I'm new here. (Hello, Everyone!) I have been a GI Joe fan my whole life and I kinda wanted to get everyone's opinion on what they disliked the most about the movie.
I liked the movie alot. It gave me this feeling of watching the old school cartoon again for the fist time. But there were a few things that bugged me. I didn't like the Baroness turning good at the end.. kinda bugged me. Storm Shadow dying was kinda lame but you never know.. the way this movie went they could easily bring him back with Nonomites or something. the Scarlet/Ripcord thing was kind of annoying. Lack of Shipwreck/Tunnel Rat/Roadblock and Gung Ho ... seriosuly? No Shipwreck? lol But yeah other than that I loved the movie just kinda wanted to see what everyone else thought. |

Welcome Osprey! I joined today too
At first I didn't really like the idea of the Baroness having been good all along and just manipulated by the nanomites, but by the end of the film I actually appreciated the added tension that brought to her character dynamic with Duke. She still has the nanomites inside her, and while they may be dormant, they could reactivate at anytime and then Duke would be her enemy again. Maybe next time, he'd be forced to kill her. That adds a nice layer of drama to what would've otherwise been a straight-up good/evil rivalry. |

I think maybe the capture of Destro and CC at the end could have been a bit more tense...
But I agree a great movie over all.

Considering I've been hating on this movie since the first trailer, I actually warmed up to most of the changes. My biggest problem was the completely unnecessary changes to Breaker and Heavy Duty's "real" names, but they weren't featured anywhere in the movie(makes me think it was stupidity on Hasbro's part for those changes and not the movie's producers). If I had one real problem it's that, even though Sommers made it clear in an interview that Zartan killed the Hard Master, Storm Shadow didn't come off much better than the one-note, evil & envious punk that Warren Ellis gave us in Resolute. I wish Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes were portrayed more as former brothers than non-stop rivals since their first meeting.

The one glaring thing that bugged me the most was the Ripcord/Scarlett thing...aside from that I was pretty pleased with the movie

The Hardmaster dying when SS and SE were kids - they shouldve been adults at that point having grown up together with the Arashikage clan...all in all though - i really enjoyed the movie

Those things didn't bug me only because I can see where it might go in the next movie. For all we know Heavy Duty's Co-pilot was Shipwrek. I can see Destro using the accelerator suit taken from duke as the basis for the BAT or even SNAKE armor. I can see Extensive Enterprises as a dummy corp created by MARS in order to create the mass device on the tax payer dollar. This could be used to send cobra forces to any battlefield on earth. because of this GI Joe will need to expand it's alpha team to include Flint, Lady Jaye, Dusty, Low Light, Bazooka, Mutt, Tunnel Rat, and Jinx. Also since cover girl is dead maybe they can bring in Helix as hawk's personal assistant and solo operator.

Didn't like the undersea battle, looked like lots of sperm fighting each other (seriously).
End with CC and Destro captured was kinda lame. Also, the CGI on Destro's mask was TERRIBLE. Storm Shadow 'dying' but I'm sure they'll bring him back. Scarlett/Ripcord thing was not my fave either. But, it was a really fun movie overall. |
