Straight-to-DVD Corner with Tonn Slingdog: Alien Raiders

DVD COMMENTARY: G.I. Joe – The Rise Of Cobra (2009)
February 9th, 2010 by Film PigsBased on the 1980s toy line (much like the other wildly expensive and brain damaging Transformers franchise), G.I. Joe: The Rise Of Cobra tells the story of a bunch of assholes with a shitload of corporate money who want to take over the world for no discernible reason and the bunch of assholes with a shitload of government money who want to stop them. There are also nanobots.
The worst part of G.I. Joe is how forgettable it is, even during the viewing. Fun drinking game: every time Falk asks any variation of “Wait…is that Sienna Miller?”, take a drink.
