A peek at the new G.I. Joe movie
When I was a kid, there were few things cooler than G.I. Joe.
It took the massive cultural tsunami that was the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to unseat Duke, Snake Eyes, Scarlett and Sgt. Slaughter as the coolest good guys (with the coolest bad guys).
Unfortunately, the cartoon doesn't hold up very well when adult fans revisit it.
But, like Transformers before them, the Joes are getting the big screen, live action treatment. And here's a shot of Snake Eyes, the silent-but-deadly ninja every guy my age wanted to be when he was barely old enough to hold anything as sharp as a steak knife.
