I was always under the impression that they had to screw something up on the uni's and make the military in the movie appear to be different from our actual armed forces as a requirement. Just to make sure that they don't show a possible actual person's rank and name and uni in said movie. Just like they always use phone numbers that start with 555. Things like that. Most of the time in every movie with an Army Uni in it I can spot at least 3 things wrong with it.

Well, what ever I liked the movie. Cool story about a product line that I loved as a child. Now the GI Joe movie.....well, it wasn't a product line that I purchased or had any toys of when I was a kid but.... What the hell did they do? They didn't represent any Navy, Air Force.....which is what the original did. Where is SGT Slaughter? Where is that crazy ass Navy guy in the work blues and dixie cup hat? And call me crazy but I never saw any damn Bionic suits that made the soldiers any better what a crock of CRAP.... Peeps who made GI Joe, Go

I can agree to that, but it was just a movie, I started to ignore all the military fubars. product placement doesnt bother me as long as it doesnt interfere with the story too much. Those two actors just sucked.

I drug a knee on a jetski, LOL. It was a big three man jetski, so it wasn't on stand up either. And I stayed on and didn't flip.

What did they do wrong military wise? I didn't pay attention. Fox is not an actress. She's a prop. Shia doesn't bug me.

First off, the air force did something without a mint on thepillow of thier hotel room 10,000 thread count pillows.

Shia la buffoon has been in the worst movies that ruined my childhood franchises, or did you forget something called a crystal skull

You said something about pillows.. that's about all I got out of that.

I just watched that shit last night.. My smile turned into a frown and I quickly found it hard to stay awake. Horrible movie.. I have nothing against Shia though..
