I'll throw my name into the hat as well. As I didn't watch tv trailers or read many discussion threads on the movie (I wanted to be surprised), I was able to go into the movie without expectations and actually ENJOY IT! The whole Doctor Rex (who I thought was Dr. Mindbender) turning out to be Cobra Commander was a nice twist I wasn't expecting. I liked his voice acting BEFORE the mask though. And at first I was a little put off by Destro's voice because it wasn't like the cartoon. But ya know what, I actually grew to LIKE it and it works well for his character. As for the Scarlett/ Ripcord angle, I wasn't thrown off by it. Hell, she's bounced back and forth between Duke and Snake Eyes so many times that I could care less.
I went with two friends and they were part of the nay-sayers... trying to piss me off because I thought it was good and they thought it sucked. Should have just stuck with my original plan and gone on Monday to see it with Black Rose instead of them. Black Rose and I are still going on Monday and it should be ALOT more fun than going with my other friends - who are not DIE-HARD Joe fans but merely "a passing fancy" Joe fan. |

I loved it! I've already seen it twice. Would I change anything? maybe, maybe not. I'd like to see more Snake Eyes/Scarlett.

All in all I think it was a great movie. I liked the way they twisted the story a lil and it makes a whole lotta sense. It set it up nice for things to come like: Baroness being CC sister...reason why she would be so devoted to him, and the nanomites being so powerful: Storm Shadow I believe isn't dead and so forth. This is 2009 and with time there is change, and to tell u the truth the Joe's got a new swag a I personally love it.

Oh Yeah, and the casting for this movie was superb. Every actor/actress played the're counterparts very well. Kudos to Marlon, Channing, Rachel, Sienna, all of them brought the Joes to life. And everyone needs to stop hating on Ripcord/Scarlett. I thought it was the best twist of the whole movie. He straight macked her and she was with it. Can't hate on him.

I liked it more than I expected too. Ripcord was funny when he busted Dukes balls; the Doctor was indeed creepy which I surprisingly liked as well. The Baroness was cool, but I want to see her evil side more in the next one. Snake Eyes was unstoppable… Storm Shadow was a ninja pimp (Bruce Lee style) & Zartan was a murdering methodical bastard…
Overall I like what I saw, but CC has to rock the chrome mask in the next one…
