I think the Watermark is going to be the TF movie. That'll set the stage for the Joe movie.

C'mon, all you guys saw 3 Kings, right? Ice Cube is just fine in it. The guy has a lot more acting potential that he lets on or let's himself have. I like the guy tho I gotta wonder at his street credibility.

Ewwww....we don't say the SF word here!! Sorry, I almost vomited!
LOL Seriously, thanks for reminding me about the SORRIEST excuse for a film in history! It makes "the accidental tourist" oscar material! The worst part is, that was Raul Julia's last film! That would be like Ben Kingsley dying after filming a remake of "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes"

I take it back...according to Wikipedia, Raul Julia made one more film after street fighter.....thank God! Something called "Down came a Blackbird". And despite the fact that I have NEVER seen it, it would have to be ungodly aweful to be worse that Street Fighter! LOL!!

My thoughts
 

I mean c'mon.. G.I.Joe should never be about 1 person. It shouldn't be scripted to cater one individual.
G.I.Joe is a team.. not one person.. I actually think the whole idea sounds like it sucks.. and it most probably will do. I agree totally with what has been said.... where is my hardcore superstar cd.. I need to be happy again.. :rolleyes:

If they want to do it right......or at the very least 'decent'........then they have to format it a la 'X-Men' style. The exception would be to cast a virtual group of 'unknowns' in the prominent characters spots. And make it an ensemble outing, NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT! The only exceptions to 'famous' voices being, Cobra Commander, Destro and General Flagg, whose faces we don't actually 'see'
[obviously in the case of CC and Destro because of the masks. And for Gen. Flagg, just have the 'darkened face on the screen' approach]


And as for the storyline?? Follow the magical chemistry that the original Superman movie did.........simple and standard and paying homage to a 'Great American Hero' ;) :)

Yeah, but why do that? Throw in a bunch of characters that NEVER existed in the comic, use a bunch of top line actors and cry when it goes belly up ala Street Fighter! LOL!

I'd like to see them just do it like Issue #1. Simple, direct, no frills, just the story of a highly trained team of military professionals that fight terrorism! Let their action and interaction tell us about them!

I like..
 

I actually like the thought of the film being done like the ''rock'' I could see someone like nicolas cage as being sci-fi v2. As a biochemist he was really funny.. In the rock he says "Oh thanks for the history and everything .. but right now I just wanna find some rockets" :p
I could definately see some of those badly turned military mercenary types as the cobra bad guys.. and the threat they pose in the film with rockets aimed at cities is typical of how I'd see cobra in todays modern world.

I think that guy who plays one of the mercenaries would make an excellent Mercer and I think the other dude would make a good Heavy Duty too! Sadly I can't remember the mercenaries names ;) :D

I agree with GenScar here. I think that the first Chris Reeves Supes flick is the BEST comic book movie ever made...well, except maybe Sin City...Jessica Alba....mmmmm....What were we talking about?

PEOPLE do u remember Masters OF THE UNIVERSE the movie has new characters and guess what THEY SUCK ..... they :eek: want a new character to be the hasbro puppet , remember star wars episode 1 JAR JAR the same think will happend with the new gijoe character.... sorry guys but the movie will suck toooooo....
