K. Here's my gripes.
-Snakes mouth mask. Next time, opt for a solid black pull-over. -Snakes arctic white-out uniform, with mask visor that was color reactive. Seriously? Snakes is a low-tech ninja, he uses swords. Need not apply uber tech to make that dude awesome, was fine as-is. -Vow of silence vs. war wounds for Snakes' lack of words. He is not silent bob. -Lack of authority in Duke's voice when he calls his troops to attention when they are on security detail for handling the MARS warheads. That was weak, and as a former military guy, just wouldn't pass. Had no balls to it. -ALOT of the CGI. Cut out 8 minutes of CGI footage, and it will be a better movie. -Jar jar and Scarlet... Ehgggg. She's either Snakes gal, or Duke's gal, not a totally reimagined RipCord's gal. -Baroness as a goodie gone baddie? Not too shabby. Wasn't that sorta the background on why she went all revolutionary in the first place? Someone in her family (could be wrong, but I think it was her brother) got aced? Either way, Sienna Miller brings this movie up 1/2 a star by herself. -Hawk seemed campy. Like touchy feeley around the campfire campy. Bad scoutmaster Hawk. -Joes base seemed super cliche Chuck Norris Delta Force style. They are elite, secret mission troops, not training for the Olympics. -I liked the Paris scene. Give that 1/2 a star by itself. -Didn't like the Neovipers. they look like crap. And they look like something off of a UPN / Sci-Fi TV show. Very crappy. Would have been happier w/ a Resolute trooper, or a generic black terror cell look w/ just a black balaclava. -Nanomites, nanomite, nanomites. Seriously. That can't the loophole fixer for everything. Should have been Dolomite. Or Dyno-MITE! -Liked the Rex / Mindbender scene. Like the idea of some of the joes / cobras just being ordinary people. That was great. That's my beef. All in all, I think if I could trim this movie up 20 mins, it would be better. Would be pulling ALOT of stuff out, wouldn't even have to put anything in, just take scenes out.

I think all the positive support for ROC from GI Joe fans is just plain embarrassing. It says a lot about the type of fans GI Joe has that 75% (roughly) think thisabomination was not only acceptable, but good.

I have to say that I am not a fan of ROC. You know it's bad when Marlon Wayans as Ripcord isn't even the worst part of the movie!

You seem to be under the impression that I or anyone else of substance cares about what ROC's defenders "think."

Thank you, Viper77. Thanks for taking time out of your high-octane 007-ish life to come to a G.I. Joe message board, find a thread full of opinions you know will fill you with impotent rage, and bless us all with your eloquent post. I think we're all a little better now for it.

Not in the least. It's obvious from your post that all you care about is attempting to sound like you are presenting an unbiased argument when, in fact, you continue to flame 'defenders' and those without 'substance'.
