Latest G.I. Joe Trailer Brings A Smile To Your Face

The final (?) trailer shows there will be some humor involved.

I know there's some people around here that have been saying how terrible the G.I. Joe movie looks.  I still think it could be good.  This latest trailer shows that there could be a little campiness involved as well.  You have to keep in mind that this is adapted from a cartoon that had all the bad guys miraculously jump out of every exploding plane with a parachute without a single injury.  It wasn't until issue #109 of the Marvel Comics where (I believe) we actually had some deaths.

I found it a little odd when I heard that Marlon Wayans was cast in the movie.  As you can see in the trailer below, he is using some of his...other acting skills as well.  I think if the movie tried being completely serious, it absolutely wouldn't work.  There is a sense of disbelief when it comes to G.I. Joe vs Cobra.  My hope is that the movie will be a fun ride.
