Above: Ray Park as Snake Eyes in G.I. Joe
[Note: Other images removed at the request of the studio ... but picture a bunch of actors wearing black and looking tough.]
We're not sure if they were hoping to release these one at a time, but the website [Bad People Who Leak Photos Online] has gotten their hands on the entire batch of character photos from the upcoming live-action G.I. Joe flick. Included in the images are Channing Tatum (as Duke), Karolina Kurkova (as Cover Girl), Marlon Wayans (as Ripcord), Sienna Miller (as Baroness), Ray Park (as Snake Eyes), Rachel Nichols (as Scarlett) and Dennis Quaid (as Hawk). Almost all of them are wearing this same black, special-ops outfit, which leads us to believe they won't be showin' off the color when it's time to do battle.
G.I. Joe arrives in theaters on August 7, 2009.

Um, that's Storm Shadow and the Baroness, not Covergirl.

Paul, immediately after I hit publish, I noticed the mistake. I corrected it in about 2.3 seconds, but it looks like you were faster with your comment. Thanks, though.

Those costumes are bad, very bad. They have removed the one thing that made the characters unique. The point is that they didn't all look the same. They didn't all wear some fatigues. They all looked unique and that reflected their character. My God, they're going to kill this franchise aren't they. He might have had flames, but at least Optimus Prime was still a truck, and still somewhat recognizable.
I was excited about GI Joe, but now that are going all "X-Men black" on us, I really not so sure.

Ugh, agreed. The "X-men black" is a terrible idea.

Shouldn't Storm Shadow look at least slightly tough or bad ass? Instead he looks like he's modeling his gay little white coat. How in the world can you fuck up a character like Storm Shadow, he was easily the one of the coolest of the giJoe characters from the 80s. I guess if they can turn bumble bee into a camaro, then a ninja can be turned into tinkerbell.

I was psyched about this movie at first. NOw I'm worried. It's starting to look like that weak ass "Street Fighter" movie!
Nice sneakers, Storm Shadow!?!?! Are you F'ing kidding me?
I sincerely hope they attempt to make a good movie and not cash in on the success of Transformers by passing off a crap movie...
Messing with my childhood is like messing with my emotions!

This movie is starting to piss me off. I just read that G.I.J.O.E. is going to stand for "Global Integrated Joint Operating Entity". This is ridiculous and too PC for me.
I may boycott this movie. If the producers can't get rid of their rectal-cranium inversion and figure out that selling out America is not the best way to sell more tickets.
I'm a U.S. Army Vet and I grew up watching the G.I. Joe cartoons. I'm proud to be an American and you should be too. Don't sell out our troops because the Liberal news media is trying to paint what we are doing over in Afghanistan and Iraq as unpopular.
Believe me when I tell you this, Iraqis want us there. They'd much rather have the US Troops there than someone that uses biological weapons on his own people. As for Afghanistan, anyone here remember 9/11/2001?

What did you expect them to wear, yellow spandex? Hahahaha...it's so true, the magic that made those characters bad ass is gone thanks to some Edna Mode woman at the studio who thought it vould look vay cooler like sdat...
Man, really, this is going to be an uptight character thing.
In the worst case scenario they could eliminate the blue color from Cobra but not the Joes, F them if they have a black flame thrower, that was the coolest figure ever!!!
I sound like a geek, hey, I had my childhood too. F this!

Guys you should really lighten up and wait and see. It sounds like the are taking some cues from the Devils Due comic series, and lets fact it the cartoon is one of the campiest ever made.
