Hi Ho Joe

Can't believe I still haven't bothered to watch the trailer for G.I. Joe... everybody's told me basically not to bother and I am nothing if not a blind follower. The basic complaint that I keep hearing is it appears that most everybody's outfitted in some sort of big boring black costumes that hide their faces and makes the characters indistinguishable. Which sounds sucky. But here are a pair of shots of Channing Tatum in a boring black but thankfully tight costume plus his face!


I had no idea that Marlon Wayans was in this movie. I was just thinking of him the other day and what a good performance he gave in Requiem For A Dream and then, nothing. Not that I expect this to be the place where he picks up another chance at showing off his chops. (via)

My biggest beef with the footage so far has been Sienna Miller's utter lack of accent in playing The Baroness. But yes, those stupid exoskeleton costumes also look super shitty.

I will totally be seeing the movie, of course, but I am fully expecting to hate it.

Yea, the trailer is stupidly loud and stupidly stupid! As much I love me some (Carol) Channing Tatum, I couldn't bring myself to watch "Fighting" and I'm not that compliant to see this one either. So, there! But he's so pretty...

JA: did you see the trailer for "District 9?" An alien refugee movie produced by Peter Jackson? It got my attention and I know "0" about it. Ciao...
