Let me officially change "admitted" to bragged. :rolleyes:

My point - producers should have chosen better director - he made a decent action movie, but it wasn't REALLY the G.I. JOE a LOT of fans were hoping for. I agree though that you don't want to have TOO fanatical of a fan making the movie, because we all don't like the same aspects of the franchise equally. ROC wasn't horrible, but it could have been a lot better & if the director knew more of the KEY points of the franchise of ARAH, and more fans would have been pleased with outcome. But this has been debated to death already on the boards.

Bottom line - it use to be politics & religion, now it seems to be politics, religion, and Rise Of Cobra. This is precisely why I DON'T want them to make a MOTU live action movie after all (1987 doesn't count), because there's no way they could make one that would satisfy all the long-invested fans - like Lincoln said.
