JOE 2 the movie
- Thread starter xhairs
- Start date
Hmmm...starting to sound like it will never be good...like trying to fix a shark attack bite with dora the explorer band aides...
yea... they need to do a full reboot imo. Also, it's sounding like they are going to change Duke around and bring on more of him.
Yeah...bringing on more Tainter is what I meant by the Dora the explorer band aide...he's not gonna fix a damn thing...if anything, he'll make it worse...
oh I got you.. I thought you were making fun of mexicans for some reason
Yea I agree. One thing that I'm worried about is most of the "screeners" were viewed by just average schmucks who don't know shit about Joe. They know Duke and SE. Than when Duke gets offed 10 mins in, they think the movie sucks. I might be wrong and the movie might be total garbage but I doubt the reshoots and 3D are going to be a positive.
I'm expecting a direct to DVD in Fall 2013

HAH!...well, my wife being 50% puerto rican does make me feel a bit entitled in making fun of the Spanish
...now if only we had adopted a black child, I could comfortaly make fun of black folks...lolMonkeywrench said:
I'm betting this is really p!ssing off Chu...I'm betting he thinks if the film had been screened by Joe fans, it woulda had better exit polling...

I know the feeling. I dated a asian chick for years and that gave me the right to make fun of asians... at least I think it did.... she did anyway
I agree. I would love to see a bootleg
As for reboot....yeah, I was (as I'm sure you also were...h8ers!!!) screaming for that the second RoC hit theaters...basing a sequel on RoC was always a recipe for disaster...they just needed to start fresh...
Though, to be fair, after the trailers for retaliation, I was kinda looking forward to it...

Hell Yeah I was! h8ers 4ever!!!!
I too was pumped for the trailers.. hell, I still am for some reason lol. The biggest difference to me was the more "real" it looked. They were using real weapons, it looked more military, no robo cop suits and you could actually recognize the characters. FF looked like FF, CC looked like CC. I looked at Breaker and HD in RoC and said "who the fuck are those fags?"
I'm really thinking retaliation was gonna be a film for fans...maybe not win any awards, but maybe the hearts of fans...
Thankfully some LCDs and egotistical old dudes who know nothing about GIJOE stepped in to "fix" it

I had the same feeling and now.... were gonna get RoC 2.0
Killing Tatum off always seemed like a bad move, although I think they could have "captured" him or some equal bullshit to keep him out of the film. The guy's awful, but killing Duke was probably a dumb move.
I tried to explain to my girlfriend about this whole thing, and even she was like "Wait, so they are going to refilm the entire thing?" When I told her no, she was like, "Why waste all that fucking money to put out a slightly-better film almost a year later?"
She hated the first one, and actually said that the sequel looked much better after seeing the trailers. Oh well. :-\
They pulled a Vinny Chase MedellÃn... cutting an amazing trailer for what resulted in a mess of a film, apparently.
Not since Superman 2 has a sequel been filmed and re-done to the degree this film sounds like it will be chopped up and reshot. Or, at least to the point to make it worth the extra effort.

Even the Rock and Bruce Willis cant save this movie.
Why couldn't have Duke just not been in this film at all?...Zartan wasn't in every episode of ARAH...Bazooka didn't show up every episode with his retardery either...can't Duke just be busy elsewhere?...maybe he's at his therapists getting some anti depressants...geeze what a dry piece of toast that guy is...
I thought Tatum was good in 21 Jump Street.. though he was playing a dumb jock-type so I'm guessing it wasn't much of a stretch.

I'm still holding on to hope. I have a feeling that the test screening was in no way a "final" cut.
stupid fuckers. who the fuck cares about 3D and who cares about The Rock and Duke being friends. ARGGGHHHH
Tards who know nothing about GI JOE, that's who...
They shoulda done pre-screenings at toy fair and got nerd opinions
Well, in their defense, they probably would like it if this movie appealed to more than just the 30-40 male toy collector market.
Lol, I know, but if mass audiances are wo they are trying to appeal to, almost anything goes...
Well they did debut in the comic together, so...
*runs away*
lol. I remember that, but after that issue.... they have nothing.
