New fun for Wednesdays! We look at an image from an upcoming movie and write snarky, witty, or otherwise entertaining captions for it. No prizes, it’s just for fun.
Because I’m having such a good time ragging on G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, I see no need to stop. So here’s a still from the film:
The synopsis, courtesy of Paramount Pictures:
Paramount Pictures and Hasbro, whose previous collaboration was the worldwide blockbuster “TRANSFORMERS,” join forces with Spyglass Entertainment for another extraordinary action-adventure “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra.” From the Egyptian desert to deep below the polar ice caps, the elite G.I. JOE team uses the latest in next-generation spy and military equipment to fight the corrupt arms dealer Destro and the growing threat of the mysterious Cobra organization to prevent them from plunging the world into chaos. “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra.” is directed by Stephen Sommers (“The Mummy,” “The Mummy Returns”).
Visit the film’s official site or IMDB page for more info.

Besides the usual product placement, GI-Joe also features the 100th episode of the popular MAD cartoon Spy vs. Spy

black ninja: really? they have outfits in white? I love your tailor, by the way.

white ninja: oh, thanks. yeah, it was on sale–JC Penny white sale. Who’d a thought?
*tink, tink*
black ninja: I gotta get me one of those…after I kill you of course.
white ninja: just watch the blood stains…I have to get this dry cleaned later.
For years afterward, Bob the Black Ninja had to endure teasing about completely forgetting that he’d been wearing a GUN that day.
“You can’t wear white after Labor Day!”
“That’s just not true anymore!”
“Yes it is! Didn’t your mother ever tell you!”
“She was always on your side! SOB!”
