GI JOE rise of the cobra

[Mad]

some new stuff from paramount, haven't watched it yet but from what ive seen from the trailer, it looks good, not a fancy cast but it compromises some promising stars with a blockbuster potential, not sure about the too much sci-fi goin on the, ie the melting of the Eiffel tower but its aite, $210,151,900 already made. what do you think?

[oints]

its aight, nuting to really have a nigga overly excited but its worth the watch, if anything, for the gadgets...oh and SNAKE EYES...dope rendition of his charecter...

fairy well, but dont you think the movie concept and the weird adventureous names like snake eye, cobra etc dont correspond with the movie? dunno how to make this into a comprehendable piece, but i just think that the character names are just too anaconda-ish or king kong-ish in a weird way

the names and the story are just diverging with the movie concept.

It's based on the comic book, GI Joe, that's why the names are weird, because that's what the characters in the comic are called.

i know pyro, ok, i know, shit nigger i wikipedia'd this shit and saw what you talking about, i just think they should have gone for something partly-adventurous than a pure action movie like the one they did.

Saw this last week. I enjoyed the action sequences of the chase in the city streets, nicely shot with good visual effects. It's a bit over the top with action scenes but still a cool. I agree with Oints, they could have made the concept simpler.

It's chaotic at times, including its plot. Looks like the producers had a lot of ideas and they tried to squeeze them all in. They could have made a separate movie with the underwater shit.

Marlons Wayans is the typical loud mouth, I'm so cool and I got jokes character that we always see in any movie when a black actor stars opposite a white lead.

oh man, i second that fully, i was dissapointed to see him another black "token role"..to be quiet honest, i dont think we would have missed him if he wasnt cast for this, nothing he did was out of the ordinary and demanded we keep our eyes on him...his role, like Rob would say, was Meh! 

that leads me to think, i have to congratulate Tyrese on his role in the Transformer flicks, very well written to fit a more plausible and respectable status quo for a black actor..that being, par, in every respect!...

channing tatum is the only interesting thing about this movie, nice nice

[Mad]

nice one, what do you guys think about the lead actor? i think they shouldve gone for someone who's more familiar with roles like that, like timothy oliphant or Matt Damon

You know what? I loved this movie. Really, really thought it was killer.

It worked because it absolutely refused to take itself seriously. It’s that good not because it is deep, or meaningful, or revelatory or groundbreaking or even that surprising. When you have a film that shoehorns in explosions, the destruction of the Eiffel tower, nanobots, unfeasibly large-chested female leads, car chases, ma**ively impractical bases beneath both the Arctic ice and the Sahara desert, two feuding ninja warriors complete with a “You killed my Master!” sub-plot (and why not?), Arnold Vosloo being evil and laser cannons, and has its tongue stuck so far up its cheek that it’s practically coming out its own nostrils, what’s not to like?

lol @ rob- man Ive been watching movies since i was an infant but i still cant figure out how they make car chasing scenes and shootouts, enlighten me a bit player

[rob_one]

Well they drive a car. Then they crash it. As they film it. Stunt driver walks away unharmed. Mostly.

They shoot blanks. Exploding caps on the scenery equal bullet holes. Corn syrup coloured red is blood.

A lot of it is CGI these days of course.
