Channing Tatum, anyone??

SOMETHING ABOUT ME: Queky tends to have an affinity to horror and at times, crappy movies. I don't. The things little sisters do for their big brothers who often take them forgranted! =p

it got a little bit draggy towards the end.

The movie started off well with amazing technology being showcased with awesome shooting scenes and high tech planes and gadgets. I know I keep saying awesome but the movie was pretty awesome in the sense that it wasn't bad. *haha* I am making a muck out of this. Anyways, the storyline was alright. I guess, most would say better than "The Proposal" which was way much too predictable. But I still loved it because I love happy ever after stories and well, spunky Sandra Bullock. Just in case you're confused, I am digressing and talking about "The Proposal". Back to GI Joe. Why GI Joe is a must watch...

Channing Tatum

Firstly, they have great casts... If they're not famous for their talent... then you can't find fault in their looks. The main and more well known casts are Channing Tatum, Dennis Quaid, Sienna Miller, Joseph Gordon- Levitt and Marlon Wayans, to name a few.

A bit about the casts...
This shows reminded me of how cute Channing Tatum is. If you know me, I am not one for gushing at cute guys... except Hugh Jackman and Heath Ledger and Cheng E-Kin and lest we forget, the bf... And gushing is what I seem to be doing now. Channing, known as DUKE in 'GI Joe' also recently acted in 'Public Enemies'. I found him endearing in 'Step Up' 1 and 2 and also in 'She's the Man'. Typical chick flick.
Sienna Miller
I always thought Sienna Miller, acting as ANA, looked rather sweet in 'Casanova'. However, she's rather infamous for her affair with Jude Law and recently Balthazar Getty. In GI Joe, I would say she is actually QUITE hot. Maybe it's her character's attitude that brings out the "chun-ness" showcasing her as a sexy bombshell not to be messed with.
Dennis Quaid
Dennis Quaid, as General Hawk is the ex-husband of Meg Ryan, starred in other movies such as 'Vantage Point' and 'Yours, Mine and ours'. And Joseph Gordon- Levitt, acting as REX (ANA's brother), is famous for his '3rd Rock from the Sun' role.

Joseph Gordon- Levitt

Marlon Wayans

Marlon Wayans, known as Ripcord in the movie has acted in 'Little Man' which was a rather crude and crappy movie and also in 'White Chick'. He also starred in 'Scary Movie' 1-4 and also in 5 (coming out in 2010). I wouldn't really know as I am definitely not a Scary Movie fan.

back to why YOU should watch GI Joe...

Secondly
, there are some pretty intense fighting scene. What is an action movie without some good 'ol fighting scenes with super canggih machine guns, planes, gadgets and of course the prancing and dancing around in the form of swordsplay and fighting moves.

Lastly, what is a movie without a little romance and of course, a twist, if there is one. *hehe* I shall leave the rest to your imagination or perhaps, lackof. A minor spoiler alert though, the movie ends with a definite promise of a sequel.

Definitely one of the better movies Queky has taken me to.

I would rate it a 4/5 more for it's action scenes and high tech stuff... but apparently this guy... rated the movie 1/5.

What would you rate it??

think the GI Joe diehards are disappointed that the background of some of the characters were altered. i think they're good alterations.

overall.... i enjoy the show, who cares about comic originality... right?

apparently, a fair bit of ppl didn't like the show.

but i still maintained that i liked it.. it was pretty alright.

the trick to enjoying a movie is.. NEVER to have any expectations..

My coder is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP.
I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses. But he's tryiong none the less. I've been using Movable-type on a number of websites for about
a year and am concerned about switching to another platform.
I have heard excellent things about blogengine.
net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress content into it?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
