USA Today has released the first "official" pic of the upcoming live-action G.I. Joe movie, showing Ray Park (aka Darth Maul) as Snake Eyes:

Another forum also has pics of General Hawk (Dennis Quaid) and the Baroness (Sienna Miller):

Looking at that first article and the IMDb entry, they've got some interesting actors involved. Two that I'm a bit confused about are who they've got for Destro and Cobra Commander - Christopher Eccleston (9th Dr. Who) and Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Tommy from 3rd Rock). Eccleston may be able to pull it off, although my preconception for Destro is that he has a rather deep voice. But a kid that's 7 years younger than I am for Cobra Commander?!? I'll have to see it to believe it.

Chances are this movie will suck, unless they can find a way to make it fun for all audiences, not just kids and not just the people that grew up with the original show.

And guys, I prefer Kick Me.

Just as long as Cobra Commander isn't a mutated scientist from an ancient subterranean civilization.

COBRA-LALALALALALALA!

Anytime I see Quaid, I know it's going to suck. He's like the poor man's Harrison Ford.

Quaid looks really fruity in that picture.

Snake eyes looks cool, but I don't understand the molded rubber top. Just put Ray Park in some long-sleeved under-armor. The man is a statue. I dig the BDUs and ammo harness though.

As for the casting choice for CC.. in theory we won't ever actually see his face, so maybe they're looking for a good voice.

Blasphemy! Enemy Mine and Innerspace are classics! Frequency was bloody good too I thought.

gods you fuck tards don't even....


*yells and rants for 5 minutes over NOTHING*

it's wait and see. any time you get a property-to-movie, it's give and take. look at how the current GI Joe comic series has using the patheon of charactors. a god example of craming a movie full of players: Mortal Kombat, SF:Van Dam & even SF:the animated movie (the one with korn, that german band & AiC...)

need more pics...

I'm going to take a wild stab at My Wife and Kids? Kind of a wacky red-neck show to me.

A redneck show...with black people? Are you retarded?
 
Posted by shikaru808 (Member # 2080) on :
 
Haha I just never saw the show a lot, thats all. Did I just diss your all-time favorite show or something Shik?

Well I chanGed it, you can have your orgasm now.

P.S.Enemy Mine was good, but it could have been better if they hadn't crammed three plots into one movie. That whole baby and slave camp thing made me feel sucker punched. Innerspace was also good. Must see Frequency.

So they lock my editing options so I can't change my profile info. Priceless.

...i just finished Reading G.I.Joe: America's Elite #36, the last issue of the WWIII arc -and- the last issue of Devil's Due's run.

i knew ahead of time that the series was ending (just not the why, that DD lost the licence and since they copy writed their shite, the story really does end for the Marvel Era storyline.) so i was kinda sad. it was good run, storytelling wise. Just not sure what to think of the future of GIJ...

*smirks* So now what? more stupid rated G tripe from IDW?
 
Posted by PsyLiam (Member # 73) on :
 
Well, they've been a bit hot and cold with the TF licence. Although they haven't had Pat Lee drawing it, which gives them a millions points over Dreamwave.

I predict after the movie we'll get a new G.I. Joe cartoon drawn in a "modern" way and everyone will start saying that the show sucks and looks like Teen Titans even though that was a good cartoon and god damn Animated Megatron is awesome and stuff.

Yes.

There is, like, "GI Joe For Adults!" in production, but it is, supposedly, split up into five minute chunks or something? Or will be?

Also Warren Ellis is writing it?
