Finally! Proof That 'G.I. Joe' Will Suck

While G.I. Joe certainly isn't the first movie to use Slurpee straws as a marketing tool, when you take into consideration all the bad buzz that's been following the flick around for the past several months, it's almost as if Paramount handed this joke to us all on a silver platter. Yes, those of you lucky enough to suck down your slurpee through one of these special straws will get the chance to own a limited edition G.I. Joe straw figure, complete with its own easy-to-make-fun-of awkward pose. There's four all together, and fans will get to choose from Snake Eyes, Duke, Storm Shadow and the Baroness. I actually think the Snake Eyes one is pretty cool (though Snake Eyes is always cool), but I honestly have no idea what's going on with the other characters. I mean, Duke looks like he's either praying or attempting to squeeze one out. You tell me ...
One imagines you'll be able to find these straws at your local 7-Eleven once we inch closer to the film's August 7 release date. Check out larger images of all four characters below.

Sienna Miller's Baroness Gets Bloody
Filed under: Action », Comic/Superhero/Geek », Images »
While you may or may not agree with some of the costumes whipped up for the actors in the new G.I. Joe movie, which you can see in saucy hi-res here, you've got to admit that Sienna Miller's Baroness is pretty darned close. She's just slightly updated and really rocking the leather. (Although they really should have given her the classic black-rimmed glasses, rather than those less-cool, barely there frames.) Now IESB has a few images of Sienna Miller on set, sporting a few distinct trails of blood on her face. There's something quite creepy, yet cool, about a raven-haired woman in black leather/pleather, carrying a gun, and smiling while blood trickles down her cheek and neck. But now I can't decide what I want more -- to see The Baroness fight in those wobbly shoes, or see a showdown between The Baroness and Selene, because they're definitely sporting a similar, gun-wielding look.
The film is currently in production, and we get to see what Stephen Sommers makes of the Hasbro line on August 7, 2009.

We brought you a bunch of brand new G.I. Joe character photos yesterday, but Paramount just sent over a whole batch of those same images (plus a few others) in beautiful hi-res. These photos include characters like Duke (Channing Tatum), Hawk (Dennis Quaid), Ripcord (Marlon Wayans), The Baroness (Sienna Miller), Destro (Christopher Eccleston), Heavy Duty (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje), Breaker (Saïd Taghmaoui), Scarlett (Rachel Nichols), Snake Eyes (Ray Park) and Storm Shadow (Byung-hun Lee). With the exception of Cobra Commander (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), that's our primary cast.
