I'm more disappointed in the Baroness for lacking glasses than anything.

It might work, you never know. Lights, posing, et cetera. That armor is pretty lol, though.

That armor is so fucking stupid. I guess they're trying to make the Joes look all Tacti-Cool and whatever, but part of G.I. Joe's coolness was that every one of them were so unique.

I think if they toned down the tactilol and focussed on how they personalized the lolarmor for themselves that recalled the original Joes that would work a lot better.

I mean, I can understand why they changed the look; Joes would look pretty silly in live-action. But to come out the other side with tactilol and Generic Scar Rar is just as bad.

...I think I just negated my original point but :U

Have you seen the DOOM movie? Their armor reminds me of the crap they wore in that.

...I feel like I've flashed back to the 80's, looking at that armor.

It's like every sci-fi movie crammed into one.

Storm Shadow: meeeeeeeeeeh.

The Baroness: they succeeded it making Sienna Miller look blah.

Duke: I think that's one of those 'loot at me I am so intense in my underwear' fashion models, and he needs to be pitched into the sun.

Cover Girl: ...wasn't she a TANKER? That is not Tank Driving Gear, dammit.

Scarlett: What is that, tactical boob plating? What the HELL?

I think my summer moving watching may end with The Dark Knight. This is looking like it's going to eat a bag of fail.

Storm Shadow- Agreed. He looks like some sort of FF cosplay.

Baroness- I like the fact that they couldn't even be assed to give her glasses. Or a Cobra symbol.

Duke- This guy just looks so...generic I think is the word I'm looking for.

Cover Girl- Yes! And no, that is not tanker gear. I am very familiar with tanker gear, and I can tell you for a fact that what she is wearing is nothing like it.

Scarlett- All kinds of awful.

I'm saying to Hell with everything out there and focusing on staying pumped for Indiana Jones.

I have my movie plans already:

May 2: Iron Man
May 9: Speed Racer (I don't care, I think they got enough right to make it worthwhile)
May 16: The Chronicles Of Narnia: Prince Caspian
May 23: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
June 6: Kung Fu Panda (animated), and Mongol (biopic of Temujin, who many would know better by his later name of Genghis Khan)
June 13: The Incredible Hulk
July 11: Hellboy 2: The Golden Army
July 18: The Dark Knight

...and then I'm free.

Hellboy 2 looks awesome, as does Mongol, Hulk, and Iron Man. The rest I could really care less about. Especially Batman.

You shut up about Covergirl, okay? B|

I must automatically like anything Karolina is in, it's a rule.
