    I never got Shipwreck's Jack Nicholson accent. Wasn't he supposed to be Latino? And Gung-Ho wasn't gay, he was just CAJUN.

    Fuck the haters, I'm really digging the new video review format. The very end had laughing hard for whatever reason.

    Is this the epic GI Joe movie we've been waiting for? No. Is this better than the original, and a fun action popcorn flick? Yes.

    I found myself having a lot of fun with this movie. The plot was somehow both basic AND convoluted, but it worked in a GI Joe film. The action was OK (yet fun) but the mountain sequence I thought "Holy shit! THIS is the action I wanted!" As for casting and characters, pretty good. Channing Tatum, Byung-Hun Lee, and Ray Park all returned and once again did a great job as Duke, Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes. The Rock was perfect, Roadblock and Lady Jaye were both great (and we finally go a badass Cobra Commander).

    Flint, however, was casted fine, but they didn't really give him anything to do. He didn't even have very much dialogue, there was nothing special about him. As for Bruce Willis as General Colton, the character was important for the ending and Willis was well casted, but they didn't give him anything to do either (let alone good dialogue). None the less, it was still fun to see him in it.

    As for the RZA, as horrible as those scenes were, I at least laughed. At the very least I was entertained.

    Overall, there wasn't anything that special about this film, but if you go into it with the expectations that you are just gonna watch a dumb popcorn flick, you'll probably have a good time.

    (Low) Matinee :)

    @Ross O'Brien - It's a 10 point scale. Leon - Low Matinee (5), Cyrus - Low Matinee (5), Co-Host - Rental (3), Korey - Rental (3). Cumulative score - 4/10 or a "High Rental".

    Maaan...I don't want to be that guy. That guy in the comment section that's obsessed with an inconsequential piece of Spill-trivia, to the point that he becomes annoying to all, and pilloried for his ceaseless whining over minutia.

    But as the scorpion says, it's in my nature. 

    BOYYY, Spill ratings math: still obscure.  Once again, two Matinees (Cyrus & Leon) plus two Rentals (Korey & CH3K) average out to a....Rental? Is that because the two Matinees were 'Low'? Somebody get me the Spill Algorithm  so I can get to the bottom of this!!!!

    G.I. Joe, Meets The Transformers...now make THAT movie and maybe, just maybe, I'll watch it.

    Sailors might be gay like Shipwreck, but you wouldn't say it to their faces.

    I think it was a lot like those other action blockbusters where it just got rewritten by committee to death until you really couldn't tell which cook messed up which part of the recipe.  It's a shame too because Hollywood has forgotten lately that keeping the budget low under one singular vision has created the most memorable and profitable action movies during the past two decades.

    So wait, if someone is a sailor that makes them gay ?

    Haha loved the ending another great review guys.

    What's really funny is that Shipwreck is modelled after Jack Nicholson's character in The Last Detail.

    I like that you do animated conversation style openings, it really captures what Spill is about.

    If it's not gay it's racial, right?
