Awesome. And Ray Park is a great choice. Darth Maul had all of two lines, and he was still an epic badass.

wow, I expected some kind of odd radical change.
But no, they pulled off the classic look and it still whoops. :APPLAUSE:

Snake Eyes looks great, if it's not a computerized fake, and Ray Park is a good choice. He had no lines as Maul (someone else did the voiceover) and didn't have many lines as Toad. He should be good as Snake Eyes.

I'd be REALLY interested in seeing how they'll pull off characters like Cobra Commander and Destro.

Other than the emblem being a bit red on his arm, I'd say that picture is pure sex.

Looks good. Snake Eyes looks promising, especially with Park behind the mask.

Who's doing the designs for this movie? 'Cause we need them to do Transformers 2. They're certainly not bastardizing them like Bay did.

Bay didnt bastardize anything. Robots and humans are 2 different things. People need to shut up about bay and the transformers movie. He did a great job and the look of the robots where fantastic for this day and age. I would have never of seen transformers if they looked they way they did back in the day. Can you imagine how stupid they would have looked if they where like the G1 style figures. Give me a break. A updated look for them was way over due. And dont think for 1 second that they are going to change the look for TF2. There is no point in changing anything and michael bay wont let that happen, Thank GOD!

Flippin' Sweet! I have had serious doubts about the GI Joe movie but seeing what an awesome and faithful job they have done on the Snake Eyes costume gives me hope!

by **80sgeek** » Sat Mar 22, 2008 4:20 pm

I just took the landscape pic and adjusted it so I could see it better, and he's wearing cargo pants. I'm sure that this is a work-in-progres, why else would they have his torso in "ripped" latex and yet he's wearing cargo pants? The original Snake-Eyes wore them with like a turtle neck sweater and ski goggles, but from these shots the film version is leaning more towards the current incarnation of him. So he should be wearing an entire muscle suit.

And to the poster that commented about his Arashikage clan insignia it's supposed to be bright red, plus I'm sure they decided to put it there because it's more predominate for filming then a tattoo on his forearm.

not that i care who got the credit or not but if known seibertron was intersted in the gijoe film i would have posted yestureday not that i care anyway.

good find snakeeys is my alltime favorite joe in teh series and cobra commander is my favorite villina i am dissapointed in the series though gijoe has not been as popualr as transformers and i liked both shows maybe the film make it more popular again.

i like how they added snakeeyes matial arts trademark on his shoulder and on his sword those re the only 2 things that i found new to his orginal animated version yo joe wander if they will give snakeeyes his wolf partner just like the animated show that would be great.

I am glad that GIJoe fans are getting characters that are true to the show. Too bad Transformers fans aren't as lucky. :-(

Those pics are pure win. Love the look of Snake-Eyes.

Clicking the link I was aprehensive, but I realy like it!

Will i be there opening weekend? Ur DAMM RIGHT I WILL!!!!

by **darkqueen01** » Sat Mar 22, 2008 9:31 pm

Ray Park as Snake Eyes = AMAZING!! The cargo pants made me laugh, tho I am sure that will change.

It's got me looking at the rest of the cast and characters: Zartan, Scarlett, Heavy Duty to name a few. Christopher Eccleston as Destro catches my eye as a great choice. Not sure what I think about Joseph Gordon-Levitt being Cobra Commander, tho. It will be interesting to see what they do for his costume at least.

Hey don't get me wrong. I'm not saying TF1 should look like G1. Nor am I saying all the designs were totally hideous. But I don't think most of them should have had bug faces. And I don't think they should have been so disproportionate, like gorilla Starscream, or Primes mouth where his chin should be. Just because they're alien don't mean they have to look like freaks. If they can "automorph" to make them look like our vehicals, they should be able to automorph their faces to look like our, giving them more range of expression other than "grrrr".

I applaude Bay for making them more detailed and updating their looks. As well as bringing the brand back into the mainstream.

When you look at any other movie franchize based on a comic book, they don't mess with the formula that made them famous. There were things I didn't like about those movies too. 1 that stands out in my mind is Spider-man. I don't liked the raised webbing on his costume, nor how the Symbiote suit was just a black version of his regular suit(no big white Venom spider symbol).

I liked the Transformers movie. I own the HD DVD version, and I don't even have a HD DVD player to play it on! And since HD DVD is dead, I might never unless I find one on sale.
