Okay so new G.I. Joe movie coming out in 2013.... I personally really liked that first movie G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. It was fast-paced, great explosions (who doesn't love things going bomb from time to time?), aesthetically pleasing people to look at and pretty decent fight scenes. Not to mention comedy was involved with the casting of Marlon Winans. However, several people rated the movie as being 'just stupid and inept' by top critics on RottenTomatoes.com.
But I guess it did well enough to have a sequel created. Cast in the up-coming action flick are Channing Tatum/Captain Duke Hauser/, Bruce Willis/Joe Colton/, RZA/Blind Master/, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson/Roadblock/, Ray Park/Snake Eyes/, Arnold Vosloo/Zartan/, Byung-hun Lee/Storm Shadow/ and Jonathan Pryce/U.S. President/. Cast from the first movie that are not to return which I feel is a loss are Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje/Heavy Duty/, Rachel Nichols/Scarlett/, Dennis Quaid/General Hawk/, and Marlon Wayans/Ripcord/. Akinnuoye-Agbaje was the brooding tough guy that generally beats up anyone in his way and doesn't smile much... No matter how hard Wayans tried. Now on to Wayans, of the list of new cast members now of them are exactly comedy genius besides Willis who can bring out the laughter along with the best of them... But not the high-pitched terrified scream and goofines
s in general that Wayans could also deliver (until Willis is hiding some goofiness in his pocket). Quaid I don't even know what to say about his character not returning to the sequel. I mean come on its Dennis Quaid... but I digress. Finally there is Nichols, they actually got rid of both women from the original... Wonder what that means?? But again I digress, this is about the trailer and not my personal feelings on decisions made in the real world... Onward to the trailer...
So the trailer begins with some people (hard to determine who they are) walking in the snow, then massive snow fight (more kicking and sword-fights less throwing - I see what you did there). Then in then desert somewhere, Hauser and Roadblock are talking, than a great explosion sequence happens. Some talking is involved and then they switch screens the President of the United States. Now if you remember from the first movie Zartan kidnapped the President and became him in his place. Zartan shows himself to the President, the President calls him insane. The "President" then informs leaders from all over the world that he has a Cobra weapon that could take out the entire world. CUT SCENE!!!!!!!! A missile or bomb drops from a satellite and hitting London and pretty much just destroying the entire area. Cobra flags are hung around the White House, symbolizing the United States of Cobras. And the only person that they can trust is Colton... Cut scene to Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow crossing blades.... Then gun fights and more explosions....Awesome.....
Now in my opinion any movie that doesn't get the critics right away usually add certain people... Now adding these people can make the movie greatest just because their name is in it... Willis is that guy and has been for a very long time.... Johnson is coming up in that name sake movie greatest as well... I mean in my opinion look at how much better Fast Five was than Fast and Furious.... This newest G.I. Joe installment looks as though its story is better, they got rid of the silliness *tear* and added some tough guys that could really put on the hurt.... So all in all, I think that this new movie is gonna rock socks....
Now I've added the link so you can view it for yourself...
