Ooh! Can't wait for the maskless Cobra Commander!
Maybe they'll make Shipwreck a desert soldier instead of a sailor. Hey, why not?

For about 30 seconds when they first released the photos of snake eyes, I thought that maybe they got it right, but come on! These last onset pics are just a perfect representation of how wrong this movie is.

What i don't understand is this. The duke characters' costume existed of camo pants, combat boots and a button down shirt. Why is he wearing armor now? Also, snake eyes...armor? what the hell?

I don't know about you guys, but to me, GI joe isn't a complicated movie to make, especially in the times we live in now, is it so hard to imagine an evil terrorist organization out to rule the world? Why did they feel the need to over complicate this property?

Ugh. You're right, it shouldn't be this complicated. As cheesy as the cartoon was, the outfits were pretty simple & still military, compared to all this stuff (okay, yeah, when you get into guys like Bazooka, Spirit, and Quick-Kick it gets loopy, but Lady Jaye, Flint, Duke, Breaker, and most of the others--Scarlett a notable exception--were all in variations on somewhat realistic uniforms)

There was some sci-fi, of course, even in the first generation (Flash, Grand Slam), but... ugh. Yeah, those look horrible.

Somebody saw this:

or read the article in Popular Mechanics, I think it was, and decided to update it for GI Joe. I'm sure these are exosuits designed to make a soldier stronger and faster. Super Joes....ugh..

Baroness is lookin hot. I always had kind of a thing for her. I wish she were a little older though, maybe early to mid 30's with more of a mature-woman's figure than a late-teens figure. But still...
