I am still optimistic. The scene looks fun, not great just fun. That is all I can say with-out seeing it.

in all honesty, aren't we just all GLAD that G.I. Joe is getting recognition? I mean, I grew up with Joes and the only excitement that ever hit the theatre was GI JOE the cartoon movie, which unlike Transformers cartoon movie, was like a longer episode with no one dying.
yes they went about this with more of a science fiction adaptation than military approach.. but still, what was my initial reaction when pictures of the movie Optimus Prime came out? it was HIDEOUS.. but I LOVED the movie. We can be the judge when the movie is finally released.. like it or not, as a fan since the 80's I'm just glad G.I. Joe is finally getting a breath of life. Without any revenues or interest, there would be no new toys for us fans.. we'd still be stuck in ARAH or Sigma crap and horrible memories of the Ice Cream Trooper and bright neon colors I agreed to but i not calling it science fiction adaptation but more over a futurist concept film. Yo Joe!

People, people, please... be happy we are getting a Joe movie! It's been ages since anything new have come out movie wise. If everyone would just take a chill pill and calm down about it, I am sure we could have better attitudes toward it. It is not the same stuff you guys knew as kids but it still is G.I. Joe and that's all that really matters.

I'm sorry, but some of you people are just plain wrong. (edited for insults, sorry) No one is "trying" to find a reason to hate this. We don't need to FIND a reason. Did you people even watch the clip?
Storm Shadow is running around in a designer outfit with no mask and a Super Soaker. Do you people really not understand how awful this is going to be? That clip is atrocious. |

I agree, I can't believe how people are wiggin out pver a 45 sec clip. People we are getting a REAL LIVE ACTION GIJOE movie!! I mean come on we could be really suffering like MOTU fans who havn't had much to be happy about until very recently!! |

That clip is "Horrifyingly" bad!! I said it before in another thread but it bears saying again: If this movie wasn't being called G.I.Joe, would any of you truly give a rats ass about seeing it based on what you've seen so far? Seriously?

Sorry, my comment was meant to be smart-alecky, not a diss to you. Certainly, no offense meant!
Some of that is true, but if this movie bombs, it's not going to get another shot like Hulk did. If it bombs, then bye bye to the line, modern and/or movie. To me, the prospect of a movie is better than an actual movie that blows. Nothing would be better than something if this movie tanks. |

I'm okay with the suits in theory, but the animation/cgi is very bad for a "major motion picture".

The key to making this movie successful, is not making it too violent/intense so younger kids can see it. This was one of the factors that really made the 'original' Star Wars trilogy so successful. Too many movies are either too violent or too sexy for younger kids and as a result parents won't take them to see the movie or allow them to watch it on DVD. If the kids don't see the movie they won't be asking their parents to buy the toys for them.
I don't mean to piss off true adult fans here, but I hope this movie is more tailored for the kids instead of adults. Adult fans just got the fantastic 'GI Joe Resolute' that was far too brutal for the younger set, but it was (most) everything many wished this movie would have been.

This garbage makes me embarassed to be a fan. And the "fans" who are supporting this movie, well, I think they're the ones who jumped back on board with the 25th Anniv. and they don't count anyway... they didn't have to suffer through the bad years with the true fans...
and when there were only bad toys, I simply paid no attention to G.I. Joe. if being a true fan means being an emotionally unstable person, as you describe, I'll gladly not be. go on and suffer because you don't have any toys you like, the grown folks will actually go on with their lives. same holds for ROC. if it sucks, no skin off my back. but the complainers, I mean true fans, will sulk and cry and suffer like it was a badge of honor. |
