GI JOE 2: Retaliation Trailer up!

You are calling the SEQUEL a parody of the first? Really? Did you see the first one? It was a parody of GI JOE.

Of course I saw the first one. I didn't think it was completely horrible. Especially considering the director who somehow makes a lot of money from really horrible movies. The movie had some good moments but I'll stick to my cartoon versions.

One of the issues I had with the first movie was that it tried way too hard to connect everything together. Cobra Commander being not just the doctor, but also long time friends with Duke. Baroness being Duke's girlfriend. That's quite a small world.

Also, anyone else happy that Snake Eyes's mask no longer has a detailed mouth on it?

That's one thing I didn't get. Why did everything have to be personal. Baroness should not be a good guy. It's like the movie didn't understand the classic G.I. Joe. Or just had to have a twist or their own spin on the characters like just about every reboot these days.

And yes, the mask is better but it will not save the movie...
 
The fact that Adrianne Palicki looks like she's going to be pretty good as Lady Jaye just confirms yet again that the people who were doing the Wonder Woman show had no idea what they were doing. She actually looks tough in the trailer. If I'd seen THAT spark in the Wonder Woman promo stuff, I'd have been all over that show.

Download the leaked pilot episode. In spite of the show making their own mythos for the character, she played the powerful role quite well, especially with the action stuff in the second half.

I've seen it. I have to disagree. It was terribly painful to watch, IMO.

Ha..yeah the show itself couldn't be salvaged with that pilot but I think with a better script she could have made it work in further episodes. But she definitely didn't seem like the ideal choice for Wonder Woman when they initially announced the cast.

Oh and the new G.I. Joe trailer reminded me again how badly I want to own this Snake Eyes diorama.

I would love to get that for my husband. We're both HUGE fans of Snake Eyes from way back. :D
 
What happened to Joseph Gordon Levitt and Christopher Eccleston?

The trailer looks great, and I will definitely go see it, but how do you get rid of Cobra Commander and Destro? Plus those two guys are great actors!

So who is in charge of Cobra? Zartan? Who is running things? I don't see it working without someone at the top. Sure wish JGL was in it.
 
Can someone post a pic of the new Cobra Commander? I'm not a Joe affection ado and I must of missed him in there lol.

I'm praying that Snake Eyes costume is one we can actually do. As much as I loved the first movie's suit it was impossible being all rubber to remake.
 
Oh I thought that might have been him but I thought I saw two guys wearing that suit in the same scene.
 
I still think they should have kept Scarlet. She was an original character and is still used in the new incarnations of GI Joe in comics and cartoon. Maybe she will not be among the "dead" and will show up in future films....maybe I just want to see Rachel Nichols again.

The other characters, they "kill" off, were not really part of the original mythos, so no biggie.
 
snakeyes looks awesome ... I didnt like the first movie, or any of the actors except ray park , and storm shadow , but i dont think they should have killed the whole group off. just ripcord )
