I just love how the "This movie is going to suck" threads have been replaced by the "You have no right to hate this film" threads. It's true I haven't seen this film yet, but I've never had my balls chopped off either but I know that would suck.

thanks for inviting me to the party! now a have a place to rant with other like minded people who are "not REAL fans" because we don't like being handed a bowl of feces and told to eat up.
nearly everything about this movie stinks. the director. the cast. the costume design. the script.
what really is the clencher for me, is all the un-necessary changes that were made to the characters and the mythos. GYAH! it chaps my knuckles!
i have a comic book that i post page by page on the web... one of the characters in able to travel through dimensions... he uses this gateway to go back in time and try to stop the G.I.Joe movie from being made. (he also blows up the TF movie crew and carries Bay's head around on a pike.

GrapeSoda - "what really is the clencher for me, is all the un-necessary changes that were made to the characters and the mythos. GYAH! it chaps my knuckles!"
totally agree...completely unecessary...leaving the history and at the very least costomes that were nods to the classics would have had no bearing to the general public on whether they saw the movie or not...i mean, the general audiance has no clue if Rip is white or black nor would it make or break it for them had they left him white, or made his name Stalker, Iceberg, BigLob, whatever...nor would they care if they weren't wearing matching uniforms...

I'm down. A place to talk about the corny treatment they took with the film and not be called a hater. How ironic.
Seems to me, everyone involved in the making of this film have no respect for the mythology of what is G.I.Joe Vs Cobra. Theres easily hundreds of scripts floating in the Joe universe throughout its many mediums movie ready. I think they were to eager to go against the grain in order to truly call it ther own. They treated it like it was a dead forgotten dinosaur in need of a 2009 face-lift. And now that I see what this b!tch looks like with her new grill, I'm a wait til baby gets her stitches out.(See where it go's after the movie).

Thanks for the invite!! Im not quite down with the direction the movie is going, but maybe, just maybe it'll be a decent futuristic action movie...if we can void the fact we will be watching a GI JOE movie...

I can't stand how people seem to think that theres no way to change this crap...there is but involves many of us taking the hard line and NOT buying this crap...not seeing this movie...basically boycotting it and sending letters, emails etc to hasbro expressing our discontent and dissatisfaction at what they have done as far as all the Changes to the gi joe mythos. GI JOE has a relatively set standard and barring some minor tweaks to back stories (ie snake eyes, stalker, storm shadow's war history being in a more modern war not vietnam) and the maybe doing a lil bit more of a modern look to em theres no real need to deviate from joe appearances and histories and ethnicities. All this movie has become is a lazy, give into political correctness and the world movie. I for one refuse to accept it and refuse to support it in anyway...until the toys are clearance out for pittence at wal-mart like the indy toys were.

I'm in the boat of "Thinks the movie will totally fuck the 25th/ME line as we know it" not matter what. Whether the movie rocks and they drop the collector line altogether, or the movie tanks and the line gets stopped because of poor sales, I feel really doubtful about the 25th line.
Maybe it's because I'm pissed about that, but it doesn't help me like the movie any more.
And when people argue that I'm stupid for expecting the 25th line to return exactly as it is, if it returns at all... It infuriates me. I'm not a stupid person, and I think since it's a collector line that harkens to it's classic roots and "explosion" designs, that they'd be stupid to bring it back in any other styling. Why cram it in some shitty movie packaging? The thing about the 25th Joe packaging design is that it stands out on the shelves, and I think that the collectors DO purchase quite a bit more of the market share than most people think. And the 25th line is NOT for kids, I don't care what logic people try to use to justify that it is. So what, it's in the toy aisles... So are McFarlane toys, simply because they don't fit in anywhere else.
The movie line, yes, it's for kids. The packaging styling and toy designs wreak of being aimed at kids. And I hate 90% of the designs so far. I don't think they'll appeal to kids, and will get clearanced like a ton of the Hulk and Speed Racer crap still clogging the toy aisles now.
