Please refrain from including spoilers for at least a couple of weeks.
I have not seen it yet, but the early reactions are NOT good at all. https://www.comicbookmovie.com/gi_jo...6645#gs.73cio5 |

A lot of the reviews mention shaky cam. I can't stand shaky cam.

It's weird. Give the title of that article, you'd think the tweets it's based on would all be negative. But of the eight tweets displayed, it was pretty even: four were negative and four were generally positive.

Yeah the tweets I’ve seen pretty far have been positive
Edit: don’t know you guys follow people like Grace Randolph but she even liked it better than a Quiet Place 2 https://twitter.com/gracerandolph/st...260462597?s=21

this movie is going to get a lot of hate from the folks that know the GI Joe mythos. But from my random sampling of people that DON'T know the mythos, they are generally hyped for this "ninja movie"
BTW - seeing it tonight. |

The movie is a total POS.
Also, Henry Golding's ethnicity is not the problem with the character, it's his performance, writing and direction. Even if it was an actor who looked more traditionally like Snake Eyes in the comics, I doubt this would've been good. |

Wow " devoid of energy" that's not something you wanna hear if you are going to watch a full length movie.

Pretty much this. Even the most vitriolic of those reactions are from self-professed "Fans for 40 years."

One of our local club members is not a GI Joe die hard, loves the toys and cartoons, but he adored the movie at the free fan first screening he saw last night.
It's obviously mainly a martial arts movie, lots of action and really slick. It's simple of course but clearly a better made film than the last two travesties according to him. But as said above I think the Die Hard comic book lore fans are the ones most put off, did an event in Costume at a local comic book shop for the movie that was doing giveaways and other promos, folks are excited and think it looks good, clearly most were younger than original Joe fans. While I did get some folks drop by with very negative reactions to it, all old hardcore fans. Its gonna be divided for sure. But really what Hasbro and Paramount will want is to bring in new fans, they need new blood to keep this brand going. Last edited by PanzerKrake; 07-22-2021 at 12:11 PM.. |

I have my reservations about this movie and had since the beginning. But "Not Being Like Hama/ARAH/Whatever" is the last of my worries. And I've been a fan of GI Joe since the 80s too. I'll give it a chance but like most Paramount efforts I'm not expecting anything stellar. |
