WTF?!

Someone made mention tonight that this was a currently filming project.
This could very well be the thing I wanted to see since I was a kid or following the trend Transformers made it could just tarnish a precious childhood memory.

I need to see a shot of Snake Eyes and Stormshadow in the same frame

If there's not a Snake Eyes/Storm Shadow fight scene, I'm going to lead a riot in the streets.

In other words, GI Joe is no longer a real American Hero, and has been infiltrated by foreign agents....

Eghh. I have images in my head of a writing staff locked in a hot room for hours and hours, struggling to come up with an acronym that makes sense. And this was the best they could do. It sounds like a cell phone networking protocol or something.

They should've gotten a real redhead to play Scarlet.

The more I think about this, the less confident I am that it's not going to suck. I get paranoid every time they mess with my beloved nostalgia.

Well of course it will suck. That isn't even up for discussion. The only question is whether it will suck in entertaining fashion.

Only problem I have with the entire project is Marlon Wayans. I wouldn't even make this guy a janitor in the movie.

I hope they end it with Flint and Lady Jane doing one of those cheesy "now you know, and knowing is half the battle" public service announcements. Robotic snakes, red and blue laser guns, the snow guy wearing his parka even if it's at the beach...they need to keep all the weird stuff.
