Greetings!
Too bad about the Joe film. Today at the bookstore I was talking to some folks who are not Joe fans at all, don't even know the names of the most prominant characters, talking negative about the film. One person, the manager of the store, said he was talking to someone at Office Depot recently about it and that person also was talking bad about it. People talk to others and the talk seems to me to be mostly negative.
The trailers are what they are seeing and they are not seeing anything that attracts them to the film.
Of course, these are just ppl I know.
But this is worrisome, none-the-less. The more I see the trailers the more my stomach sinks. The movie may be great--it may surprise me--but so far from all that I've read, and from the vehicles and some of the figures, I'm not impressed so far.
If I were to complain, where do I even begin? There's so many places to pick bones at. Reviews of the film get me down, the trailers too, the toy line (with the exception of some figures photo'd here) don't get my hopes up. I'm at a point where I am unsure about even bothering to see the film.
Anyway, some trivia that seems fun:

But then again, maybe it'll be the best thing since sliced bread.
