Well, I thought that was the military in The first movie. You know a bunch of "regualr joes" in the army.

Why 10 years?

Maybe it could happen in 5

maybe in TF2 they'll shoot a little nod to the Joes.. kinda how they're doing with the marvel movies... who knows maybe it could lead to a sweet GI Joe vs Transformers movie in 10 years or so.

As I said on another thread It would be cool if the Joes are mentioned in Transformers

Yeah... like "...can't we get GI Joe down here!?!?" That would be sweet. Or even better... greenshirts. I know you couldn't have Snake Eyes but if you put a bunch of no-names in GI Joe gear, that would be great as well.

Title be damned....the only thing I'm starting to think will "RISE" from this movie, is a foul STENCH, that only a few "circle flies" will enjoy.

I'm hoping that it will be a good "popcorn" movie. You know... the type that if you shut off your brain and cram your mouth full of popcorn it becomes a half-way bearable movie. I would understand the uniforms better if the team was the original members (the ones that all wore green), and maybe that's what they're trying to capture. But at this point, it appears to be one big crapfest.

And speaking of costumes, if the director made a big deal about making Miller's cans bigger, you'd think that they would have been featured on the Baroness poster. Just a thought.

Easy fella's! @hmmm@

There ain't a one of us that don't like having our OPINIONS minimized or "trivialized" or lumped into some category (of opinion) that is being mocked or ridiculed. Complaining about ANYTHING gets a b!tch slappin' by somebody, because what one person may like, another doesn't, and WHO is the "sensitive" one in that situation?

Who's in charge of deciding what's trivial and what's not....in a discussion about TOYS?

The thing is that offense is being taken where none was given.

Hoganvibe said he didn't care what the movie was called, he just didn't want it to stink.

azrael23 said "Exactly", which indicates AGREEMENT, not ARGUMENT, then said that complaining about the title was trivial. At no point did he even hint that he thought Hoganvibe was complaining.

Hoganvibe misunderstood and took offense when azrael23 was actually backing him up... but instead of clarifying, azrael23 actually IS arguing with him now.

No one involved in the current argument had their opinions threatened. It appears that this is a simple matter of taking things out of context. Both guys need to step back and realize they're making a fight out of nothing.

Hoganvibe isn't touching this thread with a 12 foot pole... well... until now. I think you mean Azrael23 and Wheeljack35... or something like that. Hoganvibe was the one that spent this entire time reading about Baroness's boobs until I saw my "codename" popping up here.

Speaking of titles... do you think that they'll call this movie "Action Force" in the UK? They could have one actor dub all of the voices just in any part that they say "GI Joe". It would be great! Wait... no it wouldn't. I'll go back to reading about boobs.

You did in fact make the post about not caring as long as it doesn't suck.

But you're right in that Wheeljack was the one getting bent out of shape... making a quote four people have contributed to can get confusing. My apologies.

Frankly, this leaves Wheeljack taking offense in the first place even more of a head-scratcher.

Woah .....Ok things have been settled through pm's with azreal23. I'm sorry this came up like this

Lets just drop this and just go on with the topic subject please

You got me there. I too have been scratching my head on this one. But I will chime in and say that the more I think about it, the more I like the title.

Do you think we're going to get "G1 Paint Varients" on the figures like we did with Transformers? I hope not.
