It was definitely better than "Transformers 2" and "Terminator Salvation", not that that is particularly difficult to achieve.
Channing Tatum is really not an actor, though.

1. There are three important things to the Baroness: i. catsuit, ii. glasses, iii. accent. The accent, believe it or not, is the most important one.
2. Karolina Kurkova as Cover Girl? META!
3. Rachel Nichols is more stacked than I remembered.
4. Why the eff did they use that stupid baritone voice for Cobra Commander? Even after he put on that stupid mask? No ski mask? No hood?
5. Duke was always the most boring Joe.
6. Too much Stormshadow and Snake Eyes. These guys are supposed to be stealth mofos, but when you have them carrying out tasks better suited for grunts, they lose their cachet.

latebloomer OTM, although I'm curious as to what his breaking point was and if it was the same as mine
*SPOILER*when they made Baroness a mind control victim instead of an unrepentant baddie*SPOILER*

hahaha
I was relatively okay with that, considering the stage they set, but when they had the faceoff with Cobra Commander and CC said "you're taking me in with what army?" and Duke said "THIS ONE" and all the other Joes magically appeared from NOWHERE I was like "okay movie, I have this left testicle I'd like for you to slobber on right... now"

All you can do is laugh. If they made Baroness as hot as Scarlet and cut Marlon Wayans entirely, this would actually be a pretty good film.

er Baroness was about a bazillion times hotter than Scarlet, who I think may have had a goat or a pony somewhere in her ancestry

I'm with Nate, though I didn't find Marlon Wayans to be as horrible as he'd been made out to be.

It's not that Marlon failed to do his job as an actor. It's that he was given such an obvious and obnoxious role.

And I grew up on a goat farm so maybe that's why I found Scarlet so hot?
Marlon often does a good job in movies that don't involve his brother Shawn and he was fine here, but Channing Tatum was so ridiculously awful that he made Marlon come across like Master Thespian.

The third G.I. Joe movie is a prequel and it's called Snake Eyes. Wouldn't Snake Eyes imply it was the second movie?

Snake Eyes is a GI Joe character
