I admit to having G.I. Joe's as a kid, the old ones with the Kung-Fu grip.  The comic and cartoons were typical bad American fare, so I was going to write up the upcoming movie as complete dreck.

However, having just seen the trailer and some promo info from IGN it's looking pretty F'n amazing.  Check out the video's below.  Seriously.
