I thought it was a heck of a ride myself, even though the ending had

so much going on it was hard to keep track of.  But they've already

green-lit the sequel, luckily.  I'd say they did the franchise justice.



And I'm with you on the live-action Joe movie.  I haven't heard much

good about the potential scripts, but Transformers had the same

troubles, and it turned out OK.  So we'll see.  I've been casting it

in my head; I think Bob Sapp would be a good Roadblock, and Ray Park

ought to be a lock for Snake-Eyes.  But they'd probably have to go

with a lot of no-names to keep the budget from swelling!



Oh yeah, I'm working on a helmeted version of my Cobra Commander

outfit, too.  The helmet's coming from a combination of an old Darth

Vader helmet and a mirrored face shield from a motorcycle helmet.

Early results are encouraging!
