I'll start off by saying I liked the 2009 G.I. Joe
movie. It had a lot of flaws but I found it entertaining.
Going into
this movie I had high hopes. John Chu spent a lot of time talking through
social media with The G.I. Joe collecting community and seemed to have a
good mind for what us nerds wanted to see.
The teasers all looked action
packed and I liked the casting as well.
