How to Waste 150 Million Dollars
How to Waste 150 Million Dollars by the Producers, Writers and Director of GI Joe
Step 1. Take over a recognized franchise that has its own fan base, distinctive characters and stories, instead of just creating your own.
Step 2. Throw out everything about the franchise except a few character names and the basic concept. Replace everything with generic gimmicks, actors playing wacky characters, a big action set piece and nothing to distinguish it from any of the 30 movies just like it.
Step 3. Decide if I’m talking about Star Trek, Transformers, GI Joe the movie, or any of the many many other big summer action releases that follow the same exact template.
Not only does the GI Joe movie have a disturbing resemblance to Team America World Police. I mean an international American led police force blowing up the Eiffel Tower. Seriously has no one on this project seen Team America World Police? Is Destro a member of FAG? Anyone on the Joe team have horrible flashbacks to CATS? I don’t even want to know.
