>>just my initial reaction, it looks like a cross between Iron Man and the Transfomers

I was thinking Ironman and The Matrix but, yeah, the whole “super suit” thing was cornered by Ironman.

Feh....More of the same crap from Hollywood. They’re not getting my money.

The Baroness looks hot and Snake-Eyes is THE man, but the rest of the movie will probably suck, based on what I’ve heard about its production.

well GI JOE is no longer the “Greatest American Hero”
it is some international UN sponsored anti-terrorist organization in this movie.
i wouldnt be surprised if Cobra Commander was Bush, Destro was Tony Blair and Serpentor Dick Cheney

“GONE WITH THE WIND,”

Somehow I’ve never contemplated GI Joe saying “I knows nutin’ bout’ birthen’ babies”

LOL, really what’s up with that, no wonder I never had a GI Joe when I was growing up.

To my two younger brothers' eternal chagrin, I used to steal their G.I. Joe dolls...er, action figures to marry my Barbies, even though the Barbies towered over the short 'men' with plastic hair! LOL! :-)

Trailer looks great, awesome FX--also looking forward to Christopher Eccleston (the ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC Doctor #9 in the very popular, current DW franchise) and seeing his 'daft old face' on screen again!

Regeneration scene with Eccleston

Trailers can look “awsome” but still conceal a poop story.

They have neutered G.I.Joe into a UN sponsored when the USA can’t get the job done to save the world organization.

I still have my wait and see up, but I am not rushing out to put it on the hit parade.

Also GI Joe does not stand for GI Joe but is now an acronym of some “global infantry” etc. etc. etc.

How many times have wee seen excellent trailers for bad movies?

LOL. What about Sarah Palin as "The Baroness"? I hate they took at the part of being American to be some sort of Multi-cultural UN monstrosity.

You know a movie is reallly bad when you start cheering for the bad guys.

(Cobra tearing down the eiffel tower is bad how????) (PS: the trailer implies the french did not surrender after that, and how is THAT believable?)

This version of GI Joe died many horrible deaths including a final fiery death as a result of a huge giant with a flame thrower.

My sons now use 3DO’s Army Men II and III to revist my GI Joe’s past.

I was wondering when the exoskeleton would reach the movies. The military has researched this for years from what I heard.

You don’t even need the stars.

Benjamin Button is a movie where the main charater is CGI through much of the movie’s early parts.

Eventually we WILL have new moview with John Wayne and Bogart and event Ronald Reagan. The question is how the PC lunatics in hollyweird will direct them.

so cobra uses nanites(?) to tear down the eiffel tower and then calls for help (after surrendering) from ... somebody OTHER THAN the USA.

How very EU of the french.

These days, most movie cleavage IS special effects.
