Post by: Migs on August 09, 2009, 08:12:56 PM
Not great.  It was entertaining but pretty corny.  Seeing District 9 Monday night.  Got free passes!  kinda neat sice it doesn't open until the 14th.

Good movie overall but making it politically correct was stupid.  They should have just followed the story line from the comic books. 

I'm ready for Inglorious Basterds.

Damn, I was going to see it...what is that movie where players control soldier in a real life game? Looks good.

I wish they would hurry up and make the Inferno movie

My dad thought the same thing.  He was wondering why Duke sounded like he was from the hood.

Duke was like Mr. Straightlace in the cartoon...you couldn't even picture him telling a joke, and if he did, no one would laugh

Haha, seriously.  Probably the most accurate character was Snake Eyes; it's hard to mess that up.  Overall I liked it but I guess they felt they had to make changes to each character to make it appeal to a broader audience.

those suites they wore were too over the top. if it worked so well, why didnt they use it all the time? the red head that Rip Cord was after was also a horrible actress, couldnt they find anyone better? the movie was decent i guess but reminded me of the first Street Fighter movie.

Decent?  GI Joe is a fucking American icon.  It should have been the summer blockbuster.  Fucking Tatum Channing as Duke?  Marlon Wayans?

THey should have gotten a real squared jawed actor, one that was well known..I don't know who Ripcord (black dude from Scrubs?)could have been, but did they have Roadblock? Now that could have been played by Michael Jai White or Michael Clark Duncan.

Same here - average sort of film but it killed two hours of my miserable existence - thought the CGI was pretty decent.
