So... is anyone even remotely interested in seeing this? It actually has a pretty decent cast. Plus, one can only hope for this: http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu...ideoid=5073263

^ Many of you may be too young to remember this, but the G.I. Joe animated movie with Don Johnson, Burgess Merrideth and the Cobra La story line was incredible.

I couldn't think of a lamer choice for the Baroness than Sienna Miller

Destro looks disappointing.

I miss Chris Latta.

That's a heavy word. I think even as kids we all knew GI Joe was total cheese. I just kind of enjoyed the neurotic, jealous Destro with his silly metal eyebrows and fur collar.

I guess we'll see how the movie looks. I'm just tired of all the movies-based-on-old-tv-shows thing. Its tired.

it's pretty logical for hasbro properties like gi joe and transformers to be made into movies, now that the franchises themselves are around 25, it's a safe bet that the numerous kids who grew up with those franchises will spend the cash to feel a bit nostalgic, regardless of they "ruin" the original concept -- in the studios' eyes, they're refreshing the hokey stuff to make it believable to an older demographic.

Actually, some of the writing was pretty clever.

Chris Eccleston's a good actor, when not required to do comedy.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt's playing Cobra Commander, and he's one of my favorite actors.

Even so, I suspect this will suck.

But will still see it.

i think my generation kinda missed out of the action figures, tv show, and other stuff
but the trailer looks pretty awesome, so i think it'll be a really well done action flick
i don't much about the storyline/characters, so i cant complain about anything in that department
