So while I was at work today I was thinking, what would be a killer trailer to start this movie off. Then I thought... What Would Cobra Commander do. And then it hit me....
So person X goes to see Iron Man. The Green Screen comes up with the rating and viewed for all audience is shown. then some high school boy walks around moonlighting about a girl then.... Bamm... Static.... then the Cobra insignia comes up. A moment passes and then they show the hooded Cobra Commander with Destro standing to his left. Cobra commander then pronounces sternly: 'Citizens of the Earth!! On August 7th your governments have all been worn and full surrender is all that is accepted! And if not! Then Total devastation!!!!" Then ends with the Cobra insignia again. That would kinda be cool I think.

My idea for a trailer has always been a shot of a sunset over the ocean. Then the camera very slowly pans to the right, showing the shore, then moving on and on until it shows giant track and tank trails sprawled all across the beach as far as the eye can see. Then the camera finally stops at the sight of a single figure standing and looking at the trails, and as he turns around we that he's a crimson guard. Then the release date and whatnot.
My other idea was a shot of a family eating dinner, they have a conversation about what they did and how the girl likes a boy at school and such. Then the phone rings and the father gets up to leave the table. The family then continues to talk about the girl's dilemma when after a minute or so a crimson guard (the father) walks in and shoots them all. He then goes back to the phone and says, "What else may I do for you today..." The screen cuts to black. "...Commander?" And then the release date and whatnot. But then again my view of Cobra in a movie is very dark.

As cool as those ideas may seem, rest assured: we'll never get that! (at least the one where the CG kills his own family).
NOW... that being said, I totally see the first _teaser_ having to do with something Cobra. Cobra is what "makes" G.I.Joe. Sure, Destro could be the main antagonist this time around, but Cobra's in the background and Cobra is what SELLS! IF Springfield does exist in the joe movie-verse, I could see a teaser trailer fabricated around such a concept. I think of Lynch's Blue Velvet and its opening sequence. The perfect "american dream" scene... till the old dude dies of a heart attack and the we get to see the "microverse", filled with insects and strange fucked up shit. SO, in essence, you could perhaps have a teaser with the same basic concept: show a perfect town and then a hint at the true "behind the scenes". A Cobra sigil is a MUST for the Joe teaser. This much Sommers should know.

i actually like the one with the CG killing the family...and, i'm on my way to check in at the local mental health facility.
i like the Springfield stuff, hope it's in the movie as well...if not this one, then the future ones. i would throw in one, with a hottie, blonde, etc, sitting at a bar, club, etc...she's being chatted up by some guy, half drunk bragging about his credentials in the defense department, supplier, etc...he has body guards, secret service types...they leave...outside, or in his hotel room ( even better )...she takes out his guards, easily...we notice the hair is a wig, it's tilted...no bother, she throws it off, then puts on her glasses, and starts sporting the European accent of Anastasia Cisarovna...the baroness...she can be on the phone with the Commander, while aiming a gun at the guy she came to get... something like that. |
