TF #1 was great!
TF #2 was horrible and the fact that so many people agree should give some credence to the critics opinion. GIJOE ??? We'll have to wait and see but I`m betting it is decent even for life long Joe fans. Just be open minded and realize that it isn't going to be exactly how you believe it should be (go back and watch the recently released dvd of the original cartoons and you will definitely be a little more accepting of what has been done to your memories!). I'm keeping my fingers crossed for this one!!!!! |

This movie was supposed to be based on the comic and not the cartoon. Why do people keep comparing it to the toon.I'll tell you way, because it turn out the movie is so cartoony and buffonish that it ended up more like a childs' cartoon than the more serious aspects of the comic.Thus, people saying "it's just like the toon" to justify that the movie is good.

Unfortunately, many fans took this to mean that they were going to make a live action version of the comic book down to every detail. |

I don't give a crap what critics think, anyway. Doesn't bother me at all, and won't change my view on the movie.

The Critics are just pissed off because they don't get to upload it to the net ( that and who listens to the critics anyway)?

Hasbro isn't letting the critics see it because they don't have to. Simple as that. The kids are going to drag their parents to see it and nerds will go for Sienna Miller's pushed up boobs.

I can see Paramount's reasoning. TF2 was hated by the critics, but raked in cash hand over foot. They might be thinking that GI Joe will do the same thing. If that's the case, there's no point in having a critic's screening because they know the results. Part of being a film critic is seeing every film that comes out, literally every single one of them. I could see how someone could get bored with "summer movies" because there are so many.
Critic's opinion won't mean dick until Oscar time.
