Well i say you have shit taste in movies if you think QoS was good, that was the one of the worst bond films ever. terrible action, editing was shit and boring as all hell.

I think that some actors do films and then they suck in them, but i also think they look at the script and think it will be fun to do and be a part of.
and then there are some that are hard up for cash and will do anything that is thrown at them.

Na, someone that says "GI Joe was excellent", doesn't get to judge others.

The action bits in both were a shit ton more realisitic than say, a jackie chan movie. The fights seemed like to pros really street fighting.

I liked the fighting style they had in the film, and the fact the bond gets beat up, bleeds, and gets sweaty like a REALL human would.

Other than that, I thought they were rather boring. Gave them a 6 out of 10, each. Fight scenes, chase scenes, etc. They were all 9s. Excellently done. The rest such as the stories, etc. Kind of boring. Not as good as other bond films.

However, Daniel Craig was the first Bond to actually LOOK like a secret 00 agent. Mad props to him for that.

One name for you Sean Connery!
The fights in CR were great, and the action was good, and the story was good, but after they got that down they should of gone back to the gadgets with john cleese as Q in the 2nd one. the whole revenge plots suck in bond movies, and it was like watching a bourne movie. and the humor was missing and you get someone like cleese to replace the original Q and now you don't use him, friggin stupid.

GI JOE reminded me of a bond movie juiced up. and it was great

GI Joe is still better than TF2 and Harry Potter 6, though.

When I was watching TF2, I literally was 'facepalming' each of the humor scenes. The humor was a complete fail

And Harry Potter 6... was a complete waste of time and money. I slept halfway through the movie

Reading the book was more "exciting" than the movie.

Park's stunt work was just about the only good thing in the film. But you're probably just having a piss in saying that.

I take it that is an attempt at humor?
Ray Park brought snake eyes to life, he was fantastic as was the whole movie IMO.

Considering he didn't have a single spoken word and the quality of the others, I agree.

Yep pretty much just playing around.

I did that in another thread and forgot about it and I got hate messages for it.

Good question. Snake Eyes doesn't speak. Park doesn't voice Maul either so...........

Both were show stealers for both there respective films.

I'd say it's literally dead even.

I loved both characters and its dead even, but with maul at least you saw his face and eyes even though it was painted and he had contacts.

IMO GI JOE shits on QoS in every area.

That and the fact that Snake Eyes had the "film-induced mouth". They both were some of the only redeeming qualities in ther movies though.

Would those include music, acting, and scenery. IMO QOS is one of the best Bond films. #2 on my list with Casino Royale being the best. Just my opinion, and I know it might not be the majority but I know the material. I'm a huge Bond fan and have seen most of the movies.

G.I. Joe to me had some of the worst CGI along with Wolverine this year. You could tell those vehicles underwater were fake. As bad as Transformers 2 may have been. I can't say the same for it's CGI. It was top knotch. Same for Terminator Salvation and Star Trek. These films had great CGI and thats primarily what it advertised. CGI is pretty much solely what C.I. Joe advertised and IMO it failed.

Pros
-Snake Eyes
-Action scene in Paris w/ Accelerator Suits
-Hot Women

Cons
-Everything else and trust me, it's a damn long laundry list.
