I hope they don't "Doom" up this movie. And does anyone know how serious in tone this movie will be? I hope they play it straight and make the movie along the lines as a Batman Begins or even an X-Men movie.

I think we're in safe hands. The writers are Skip Woods and Stuart Beattie. Between them, they've written Swordfish, Hitman and the POTC Trilogy.

Nice! Those black suits have to their ops gear- I wonder if their non-mission atire will end up looking more like the cartoon and comics to some degree?

drooling Baroness!

I'm a little concerned about the all-black Joe outfits; GI Joe costuming has always been about creative individuality rather than uniform group identity. *shrug* I guess we'll wait and see what they do with the other characters.

Storm Shadow looks pretty cool, but I miss his mask.

Dennis Quaid looks more like Flint than Hawk to me from the above pics. The previous page had Quaid as Hawk. And Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Cobra Commander? What's up with that. I hope that is not true.

Well I can't say I like the way any of the characters look except Snake-eyes. The Baroness's shoes are absolutely ridiculous looking. And Scarlet looks like she's modeling for a magazine cover. shame_on_you


Not to mention the fact that I can't even look at a picture of Marlon Wayans without thinking of him as Snails from the D&D film. doh!

So are they all gonna look like X-men rejects or what? tongue

Why is it that all these types of movies have to change the original look of the characters into the oh-so-hip Matrix-meets-Batsuit look?

I have to say, she does look HOT though.

I think it's somewhat realistic- I think real military suits ala the batsuit have been developed, and it makes sense that you'd paint 'em black for covert ops. Like I said- I'm actually more curious what some of these characters will look like in their normal fatigues.

Scarlett looks pretty good, I not really that bothered about how close they stay to her cartoon uniform.

I'd say they look more like Crysis-lite, actually. wink

Maybe because that's actually the look the US Army is going for? whistling

A little too much so, actually.

There's no way the US Government would ever spend that kind of money on "cool new outfits" for their soldiers... It doesn't make any sense from a budgetary perspective.... It's just not practical. Not to mention this stuff isn't new, they're always coming up with some high tech lookin' gear to spin as "the new look for the military" and it never happens. Just something to put in the militaristic mags and Guns N' Ammo. You've got to pay attention to how the military spends money, just look at where the advances have been... Weaponry... not armor and fancy attire. It's far too expensive and doesn't do a whole lot of good. The look of our soldiers hasn't really changed in the past 8 decades. The newest look we got was the desert fatigues... tongue

See they release articles like that every 10-15 years or so, because the technology is out there and people are always curios how close the "Star Wars/Starship Troopers" future we are. They do the same thing with space technology...

Funny how they seem to want our military to look more like Storm Troopers though. Or should I say, Scary...
