JOE 2 the movie
- Thread starter xhairs
- Start date
I'm still stoked about the film. But the toys are starting to look a lot like garbage, comparatively. Sad thing is, the second film's going to probably be much better (I'm already more excited for it than I was with ROC, anyways) but the toy line suffers because the first was overproduced, and the toys themselves were decent representations of the on-screen counterparts.
Great sculpting and articulation in ROC bridged the advances from 25th to POC and 30th, and now we're back to before the 25th, for some figures. (Pre-1982 for the damned drivers. Ugh.) It's a shame, but do like I do: blame ROC and a little bit of over-zealous "price adjusters" at Hasbro.

Nerdy conversation with the Rock.

that was cool , except that part about road block training with ninjas what the fuck is that all about
QFT
I don't mind a few ninjas, but I'm beginning to think this movie is going to be stupid. Roadblock trains w/the Arishakage? Well that explains the Arishakage tattoo we've seen on his figures and whatnot.
**shakes head**
I like my ninja corps small, elite and segregated (and no, not the racial kind).
I don't want heavy machine gunners cross-training in Arashikage Ryu or whatever ninja style they're using.
SO, Storm Shadow, Slice (maybe Dice) and a handful of Red Ninjas versus Snake Eyes, Jinx and pick someone else from Ninja Force duking it out, with an occasional appearence by those meddeling Night Creepers.
No Ninja Apprentice Duke, Roadblock or Scarlett buffoonery.

Did you see the first movie?
You know, I didn't see the first movie, either. I refused to see it.
that ^ was my fave part from that interview
heh heh heh...

I actually thought that was pretty odd. Who signs up to do a movie sequel without seeing the first one? Even if (or especially if) the first one stunk, wouldn't you want to watch it to know what to avoid doing for the sequel?
Dude, they just care about the cash and have big enough egos to where they feel they can do anything anyways.
anything is better then ROC but this has hope as someof the interviews i have saw the head guy wants it to be as real as it can be and he wishes he could of just rebooted it. but he had to keep some of the roc shit in it. i do have hope this will be a kick ass movie though.
i lauged so hard at this headline...i mean, really, this is news?...this isn't 100% totally expected at this point?
"Storm Shadow Will Have A Much Bigger Role in G.I. JOE: RETALIATION "

also, in the article, theres a quote that makes it pretty clear that Duke isn't dead

Yea, Duke ain't dead... I think he will either be injured, imprisoned or captured
Yeah, unlikely, but maybe a S02 version or something will be better. I can't imagine initial sales #'s would be early enough for them to tweak much on the later waves due to production timelines etc.
I just wish they'd have the time and effort into the figure design, such a step back, and makes it all the worse that the movie seems to be a lot closer to the GIJOE we know.

Hey, I'm one of them, to an extent, and that would be an acceptable trade off...
ORRRR, how bout they make him a respectable military man and not talk like he's about to go pop a cap in the rival gang leader.

he cant help it, thats how he talks when he gets giddy. He is giddy cuz he cant believe that people are still paying him to "act"
He's all over the moving pictures these days! I do kind of want to see 21 Jump Street though, he plays a dumb oaf.. seems like a perfect fit.
So Aerosmith is doing a song for the movie.
Anyone else see the irony that a band that hasn't been relevant since the early '90s is doing a song for a movie about a toy line that also hasn't been relevant since the early '90s?
I used to be big into the Aerosmith, but this just seems so......
