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?

(or very close to that)

Yeah - they can take the new GI JOE and shove it. I’ll take my “Real American Hero.”

The UN thing was the original screenplay idea, but it was poo-pooed overwhelmingly in test pitches. GI Joe as we see it in the theater will be an all-American force, just like we remember.
