Okay, I wanted to ask what do people think about a G.I. Joe reboot after the current series is finished, what type of story they want, and who would they want cast as the characters. Now I personally wouldn't mind them casting people in their 20s and 30s as some of the characters like Duke and Scarlett, but characters like Hawk and Joe Colton should have actors who are in their 40s and 50s cast in the roles. I like the idea of the Joes being a much more advanced military unit than most with their weaponry but Cobra should be even more advanced with their weaponry. I don't want the Joes resembling any other military unit because giving them different weaponry and tech makes them much more distinguished from the rest. My choices for Duke and Scarlett would be either Chris Pine or Chris Hemsworth for Duke and Emily Blunt or Emma Stone for Scarlett. I wouldn't mind Ray Park coming back as Snake Eyes though.

I agree. Cobra should have the most advanced weaponry including lasers.
I created a thread here at "The Tank" a while ago arguing that Chris Hemsworth would have been great for Duke. I have believed this since the first moment I saw him as George Kirk in the 2009 Star Trek reboot. I still like Rachel Nichols as Scarlett. Ray Park returning would be great. Sofia Vergara or someone who looks just like her should play the Baroness!!! |

Ray Park, Rachel Nichols, and Lee Byung Hun were all great. The Baroness needed a European accent, whether it was French or Russian does not matter.

Lee Byung Hun, Rachel Nichols and Ray Park were all great choices. I do like Arnold Vosloo as Zartan as well.

I think the IDW staff has done the best job of all with the characters. They rebooted this series and breathed life into the Joeverse like no other creative team has. I submit to you that they do it better than Hama.
Although the early Hama 20-60 issues are untouchable IMO. Why Paramount/Hasblo chose to continue this story arc is absolutely brainless. Check out the new Entertainment Weekly with the new Christian Bale Batman cover. It covers the new action films to see this coming summer. Guess what.... G.I.Joe Retaliation is not listed. No pix or anything. I found that surprising because EW pretty much reports on everything and for them to leave out Joe2, I think that says something. For my money, I am going to see Batman 3. Joe2- X Box media center. When rebooting Joe, give the reigns to Chris Nolan but if he is not willing, give it to IDW. They will make it worth while. |

I just got done watching the new trailer for the Expendables part 2.
I gotta tell you guys, this is G.I.Joe. It has Stallone. Willis. Van Daam. Jet Li. Lungren. Even Schwarzenegger in it this time. WTF! Why isn't the Rock in it because this is the show he should have been in. Check the trailer out if you haven't yet! If Joe would have have been a reboot, this would have been it! I mean, it has ALL of the 80s action stars. Even Chuck Norris! Joe2 is gonna suck in comparison. I mean how could it surpass all of these guys? Not possible when you have every single name brand action star from the 80s and some of the 90s starring. I can't wait!!!!! The Expendables 2 Official Trailer #1 - Sylvester Stallone Movie (2012) HD - YouTube BTW, does anyone know how to embed youtube videos on hisstank? When I post the link, all that happens is a link shows. Some of these vbulletin boards actually show the video in the post. Thanks! Last edited by thairestauranteur; 01-25-2012 at 05:18 PM.. |
