The film stars Channing Tatum, Ray Park and RZA. It also has a cameo from Bruce "My Cholesterol is a Little High" Willis. The set pieces do look rather endearing, specifically the mountain-face-samurai-sword battle near the trailer's end (yes, that was actually a sentence).
But this is simply an excuse to post a quote from Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, from an interview with Movieline. He was asked about having insider info on the death of Osama Bin Laden - and how he knew about it a little before the general public:"Right now the best way that I can impact the world is through entertainment. One day, and that day will come, I can impact the world through politics. The great news is that I am American, therefore I can become President."
American politics has a history of movie actors occupying significant roles; Ronald Reagan... Arnold Schwarzenegger... can you smell what I'm cooking?
I can smell it.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I am all for this sequel. The trailer looks like great fun and it could be one of the best theater romps of 2012.
Yeah, the trailer was great and looks like it could be really entertaining. Hopefully, anyway!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a lot of fun to me. The fashion of retaking all the good old series of the 80's sometimes end up badly but the first GI Joe was not too bad. I will definitely give a chance at the second one!
ReplyDeleteI felt that the first GI Joe movie was what the Transformers flicks *should* have been. Just good fun. I'm looking forward to this film. While I'm not as excited for it as I am other films, but I'll probably check it out when it's released.
