Star Wars gets worse every year. Not because the prequel movies were mediocre, or because there is a kids’ show based on the Clone Wars, but because of the Star Wars fans. Everything you hated about Star Trek fans? Star Wars fans will find a way to do it worse now.
But let’s combine that with corset fetishes and you have this:
Corsets can be sexy, but this isn't the way to do it...
It doesn’t help that their models look kind of creepy and plastic-ey like Barbie dolls. Ew.
50% less likely to be a member of the Village People
Seeing Shipwreck likes this seems…wrong. He’s not even in the movie!
Like a live action one with actual actors. And it entertained me. It wasn’t good by any stretch of the imagination, but I did not want my money back.
Really I didn’t mind the cheese or the bad dialog, because it is G.I. Joe after all. What I did mind is how it falls apart at the end with really bad Star Wars idea ripoffs. It’s also made dumber than you would expect by the inclusion of a whole personal relationship subplot that is complex, silly, and doesn’t fit in the G.I. Joe story very well.
Wait for the DVD. And watch G.I. Joe Resolute first.
Two things:

Yeah, I know we’ve all seen this, but:
I love it. Of course, I’m “that guy” that loved the Transformers movie, too. It won’t be perfect, but given what Hollywood is willing to pump out, it looks good to me.
Besides, do you really want this on your movie screen? Do you?
Yeah. That COULD be the way they did it, people.
Everyone has moments they remember and treasure from their favorite movies they saw as a kid, and there’s no question in my mind that these things can have an impact on a young mind. I’m talking about the kind of impact that transforms a potentially productive member of society into a lame, lazy “Generation X-er” who has nothing better to do than blog about cereal commercials and collect G.I. Joe toys and comic books. I’ve compiled a list of some of my favorite 80s(ish) kid’s film moments: some inspiring, some terrifying. These may not be the most famous or commonly quoted movie scenes out there, but they caused inspiration, terror, and a dangerous obsession with cool special effects in a generation of kids. Or at least me.
Bear with us for our inaugural “real article” that isn’t just some crap I found on YouTube. Hopefully, I will be just barely lazy enough that I can keep a few of these coming, without being so lazy I actually decide to go and do something productive. Enjoy.
