So they wear full body armor, but no helmets, and fight with swords and bows despite having access to the most advanced tech in the world? Hmm.

This is an awesome idea. I love Dog the bounty hunter.
No one's really bitching so much about the backstory being fucked up...it's more the look of the movie that's pissing people off. The Joes are supposed to look like the Village People, not the dude from Halo.
And let's not get started on how bad they fucked up Cobra...
Dolemite, the Bad-Ass King of all Pimps and Hustlers
Gymkata: I mean look at da lil playah woblin his way into our hearts in the sig awwwwwww
I don't get how people can support seeing Revenge of the Fallen and not be all about this.
Transformers gave you fighting robots, this is going to give you soldiers fighting terrorists and elaborate schemes.
That movie (Dumptrucks post) looks better than This piece of shit.

The theme of GI JOE was reeling kids into watching a 20 minute ad for toys. They made sure each of the gajillion characters had a cool and memorable name like Cobra Commander so you'd have stuff to ask your parents for. The movie is a new 120 minute ad for new toys. The cool and memorable names are the same. When the credits roll and the lights turn on, you will overhear a 7 year-old boy ask his mom for a Cobra Commando. You will make a chortling noise through your mouthful of Mountain Dew Code Red because you know his real name, his real look, and his real origin story. You'll know that you're better than that kid, and you won't be so mad about the perversion of GI JOE's look and lore and nanomachines and form-fitting suits of armorsuits.
Twenty years from That Exact Fucking Moment, that boy will see a trailer for a new movie called GI JOE and chortle. For GI JOE, you see, will not have suits of armorsuits.
They will be nude, and giving reacharounds.
I don't drink Mountain Dew Code Red.
I'm a diabetic.
Also, I was more a Transformers fan. And I liked the TF movie.
