I admit it. I have a soft spot for the old GI Joe cartoon (for the same reason I love Bond movies, really ;). But when I first heard that a live-action movie was coming out, I had no interest in it (CGI Chipmunks, anyone? XP).
But now that I've seen the Superbowl trailer and the casting list, I may be obligated to see it now, if only because Destro will be played by Christopher Eccelston (aka the 9th Doctor from Doctor Who, and the Invisible Man from Heroes ;). I personally think it's a great casting choice (and Destro is supposed to be a Scottish lord, so that sort of fits, too).Although, now I keep on picturing The Baroness (Destro's love interest) as a Companion... And who they have cast as Cobra Commander has me incredibly amused... XD
My only complaint is that my favourite Cobra characters, Tomax and Xamot, won't be in the movie... Oh well. Still, my current GI Joe kick has inspired me to draw Tomax (or is it Xamot?)... Too bad my scanner still isn't working. :P I even tried to take a digital picture of the sketch, so I could attempt to colour it; but it wouldn't save to the memory card, even after I deleted a pic... Gah.
