So far it sounds pretty cool... the cast makes me wonder what they are doing. I've heard The Rock is already in production in some parts right now.

Rumors are they are going to have Bruce Willis playing a part.

Don't have much more information than that but I'm sure others can feed to this thread for a KickAss movie!!

GI Joe is the worst thing ever happened from comics to movies.

I really enjoyed the first movie.... The only issue I have with this one is not bringing back everyone from the first one to play in it as in they prob either waited to long to sign them up or they didn't make them sign a 3 movie contract.

That's probably because it's not a 'comics-to-movie' film, it's a 'toys-to-movie' film like Transformers.

Personally I enjoyed it. It was a great mindless action movie. I just disappointed most of the cast from the first movie are not coming back. Joseph Gordon Levitt was a great villain despite that horrible mask he had to act with.

Creating the comics as a movie for GI Joe would be terrible. The people who read them would be too old and think it's silly, and kids today would think it's silly.

Trailer is up



Looks like they got rid of the sci-fi stuff from the first movie, and they're making it more grounded in reality.

Haha Bruce Willis.

Never got around to seeing the first one, maybe I'll rent it this week and check it out.

I absolutely loved the first movie.

This one looks "ok". Personally, they didn't have to completely axe some of the characters. Adding new ones is fine, but to completely disregard characters from the first movie for no logical reason is just silly. Also, I thoroughly enjoyed the "sci-fi"ness of the first movie. This isn't the 80's. Technology has progressed and of course a secret elite team of the government is going to have access to things like that.

The trailer looks cool but I'm a little worried about the lack of a main villain like Cobra Commander.

Cobra Commander was in the trailer. The guy with a silver plate for a face. They just recasted him, sadly.
