I'm nowhere near as excited for GI: Joe as I was before. Did it really HAVE to be converted?

I don't mind watching a movie in 3-D. But it's over rated and alot of the times doesn't serve a purpose. It's a way for hollywood to get big bucks. The Avengers might not have been as successful as it is but it would still be a smash (no pun intended) if they didn't decide to use 3-D.

It's never (maybe rarely) a creative choice to use 3D... in reality its the producers and whatnot thinking it will make the movie better and make more money

Don't these people understand you don't make money by raising ticket prices, you make money by making a good movie. The raised ticket prices of a 3D movie does not make up for a lack of people who don't see the movie.

If anything people don't see 3D because the ticket is more expensive.

Something I would love for these movie producers and whatnot to understand is taking the worst movie in the world and putting it in 3D does not make it better. It still sucks AND you spent more money making it.

Let's say Avengers wasn't in 3D. Maybe they lose a couple of thousand compared to if they used 3D. But wait a minute? That money "lost" is probably no where near the amount they spent to film in 3D in the first place.

@hope420....that's what I hope they do. Like have the Snake Men banished from Eternia long ago and Skelator is being used by them to bring them back. Make Skelator a tragic villian, in the fashion of Magneto and not just some kind of madman. But, not displayed as a simple henchman like Bane was in TDKR. Hordak is a must too!

DO NOT CAST SOME CHRIS PINE/ JOSH DOUCHE-HAMMEL/ SAM WORTHINGTON KNUCKLE HEAD IN THE HE-MAN ROLE.

NO TWILIGHT, BABY-FACED, HAIR GELLED TWIT.

The last full fledged respectable action star to come up recently has been Chris Hemsworth. Even his brother possess the semi-crossed eyes, vacant in that dome look.

Make it someone we can all respect, accept, and believe as an action star to undertake such a physically demanding role.

Ya FEEL??!!!!!!!!!

How do you screw up GI Joe? The second film does look way better than the first, but when are they going to learn that Vasquez-type Carano's, Rodriguez's and other actresses out there are suited for the roles of Lady Jaye, Scarlett and so forth. Lady Jay should have short hair and look like she could actually physically take down an opponent. Is it that hard to throw a beanie on a bearded actor who's wearing the same military attire and call him Shipwreck or by his alias?

Guess I'm a weirdo, I thought Vasquez(Goldstein) was kinda' hot.

@StrangerX

Good suggestion for Beast Man: he should actually scare audiences, not be a big bumbling ogre type. He should be like those insane glowing eyed half man, half whatever they were things from Beastmaster that chased podo and codo. :-P

As far as He- Man is concerned, call it Grayskull, dodge the alter ego and Orko s%*t, make him a prince that becomes He-Man(King of Grayskull preferably) once he discovers the sword and make battle cat his Jake Scully conquering the big orange flying creature from Avatar moment and you could have some great stuff. Thor & the LOTR trilogy have proved that this is possible. Hell if Chu has a good rapport with the Rock, I say he'd be a decent suggestion for Man at Arms(make his role more important in the film).

Seriously, Skeletor and his henchmen should truly be horrific other wise phone it in & order a large pepperoni..., with extra CHHHHHEEEEEEEEZZZZZZZ!!!!

@StrangerX: GREAT START. Agree with your choice!

@Hope420: YES!! Utilize all the different waves of characters for each "chapter". Great idea!

@TelaVizion: YES, YES, YES. The newest cartoon (what I saw) took the entire universe and made it a "cinematic" experience. It felt like a kingdom that existed for years. I would say tone down the bumbling henchmen and kiddie tone with Adam and we'll be in good shape for the best iteration of this fantasy world.

DAMNED IF THIS IS FROM A TOY!! Still no reason to make it a kiddie-cash-grab like Transformers which featured some of the stupidest lines, characters, and "gags" (robot balls...) ever to grave the screen and pierce our memories.

CHU.......WE GOT OUR EYES ON YOU'!!!!!!

*grace the screen

Frak 3D, Del Toro should be making Masters of the Universe with Hunnam as Adam.

Adam can be a prince but it's one of those things that he really doesn't know he has the bloodline in him for whatever reason. As far as Battle Cat, I thought that Adam is trying out for the Eternian army and as a form of training the recruits must go into a forest and try to tame and ride one of the wild tigers that inhabit said forest. After some intense chasing and action Adam rides out of the forest upon the tiger that will become his own Battle Cat. This could be an exclusive branch of the army that the soldiers ride Tigers into war.

The division he gets appointed to will be a fighting force consisting of Ram-Man, Fisto, Mek-A-Neck, Buzz-Off and some others. Like a band of brothers, an elite group with there own fighting skills.

I dunno, something like that maybe.

DAMN THAT DUDE COULD PLAY MAN APE IN A BLACK PANTHER MOVIE!

@MisterMagurlypse

That too would be good! The final product will probably be nothing near our suggestions and frightfully worse. It's a Lorenz Di Boniventura(I don't even care on the spelling)production I believe, so I'm not expecting much. Kinda' getting a little pissed off because I just now realized how amazing this could be. Seriously, I love Del Toro, he's not in my top 5 or anything, but he great and this would be right up his alley, especially after spending so much time on the Hobbit. Ugh. Another blown opportunity.

Yea MOTU is def a story that could be properly introduced as a trilogy.

The first GI Joe was surprisingly decent. But I'm expecting a talking Commander, lifelike hair and kung fu grip in the sequel at the very least.

@TelaVizion...I agree the version of He-Man was pretty good.....Ill will be kid friendly but losts of eye candy and elements of fantasy that will keep us entertained as well

^^ No.... Hell no.
