You may recall a couple of weeks ago we posted leaked images of the cast of the forthcoming G.I. Joe film in their ridiculous costumes. Today, we have another. The same tipster who sent us the originals gave us this image of Destro.
I’m am so disappointed.
The only thing good about this movie is that it’s getting made, so that when it’s done they can hopefully do a reboot as they did for the Hulk franchise.
Hit the jump to see how the old man looks. Get a hanky.
Didn’t he have a metal mask on at all times? Yes, he did.

Dude, it’s Christopher Motherf***ing Eccleston. He could be in a chicken suit, and he’d still make a badass Destro.
The man is a god, and probably the only good actor in the whole friggin’ movie. He’s the reason TO see the film in the first place.

I can’t support this, Eccleston or no.
Destro wears a mask. Destro does not look like a villain from Die Hard.

Actually I think Eccleston looks quite a bit like his character from ‘Gone In 90 Seconds’.
Destro has to take his mask off to eat, so maybe this is just a picture of him after a trip to Wendy’s.

Does this really MATTER. Sometimes it is not the look but the ATTITUDE. Chris has got it in spades. Hell, Destro was supposed to be scottish in the old days. Chris may not be but at least he will SOUND closer then anything the TV show ever produced. I bet you guys complain that Samuel L Jackson is Nick Fury in Iron man too. WHo CARES. It doiesn’t make it any less cool. And who says that Destro won’t be GETTING a mask in the movie? :P

This is the WORST casting and movie EVER!!!! This is a huge pile of Cr-p!!
Everything about this MOVIE is BAD, casting , production design, costumes …EVERYTHING…period. I would rather go see a chick flik. RAY park as snake eyes CANNOT save this movie.
They heavyduty instead of ROADBLOCK!?
They cast a WAYANS BROS. as a white caharcter , before even having STALKER in the movie!?
They DIDNT cast the lead from 300 to play DESTRO!!!
storm shadow looks like he belongs in a matrix sequel!!!
The barroness casting is bad.
I like Dennis Quiad but ..HAWK he ISNT!!!
G.I joe outfits look like BRUCE WAYNE designed them!!!
And they got the WRONG guy to play COBRA COMMANDER!!!

Is this X-Men 4, judging by those absurd costumes? What’s that, Paramount? GI Joe you say?? Riiiight. Grow a pair and make an American Hero or count me out.
I’ll NOT see it after that colossal turd Michael Bay called Transformers. Peter Cullen as Prime couldn’t save that film any more than Ray Park will save this one. Hollywood is poised to destroy all of our fondest childhood memories. Thanks guys.

Every red-blooded American male that grew up watching 80’s toons should boycott these piss-poor remakes unless they get it right (by actually listening to the fans), I say.
Quit tampering with the formula, it’s already in place. You need not redesign and rewrite everything beyond recognition, Hollywood.
I’m done now. End fanatical rant.
