Movie Trailer: G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra
I want to thank Roland Emmerich for giving us the specific shot of the destruction of a recognizable public monument (The White House in Independence Day, the Statue of Liberty in Cloverfield and Emmerich's The Day After Tomorrow, the Eiffel Tower in this film) as a touchstone for bloated McMovies. Here the simple rule: if you see a piece of architecture you recognize being destroyed, the movie has a 99% chance of stinking. The leaping ninjas and the fact this is based on a collection of dolls and cartoons go to support this conclusion.
