Storm Shadow Poster Image (G.I.Joe: Rise Of The Cobra)
WHO: "Storm Shadow is a fictional character from the G.I. Joe comics series and television shows. The character is best known for his history with fellow ninja Snake-Eyes. Throughout their history, the duo have been everything to one another from the bitterest of enemies, to the most loyal of friends (and blood brothers) who would fight and die for one another." ~ CLICK THRU FOR MORE.
"Storm Shadow's real name is Thomas S. Arashikage (トーマス・嵐影) (Arashi = "Storm" and kage = "shadow" in Japanese). Best known as the Cobra Commander's ninja bodyguard and assassin at times, he is the only member of the team to change sides several times, conflicted in loyalties between Cobra, G.I. Joe, and his long relationship with his sword-brother Snake-Eyes. He usually wears a white uniform and mask. When out of his uniform, he is shown to be Japanese, with black hair and dark eyes." [wiki]WHO-IS: In G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra; South Korean actor Lee Byung-hun plays the adult Storm Shadow.
Peep the Storm Shadow poster-image, to add the previously released ones HERE.
TRE-IMPRESSION: I am utterly befuddled at the costume-choice for this particular ninja tho. Lost in limbo between a "Aristocratic-rich-man-playing-at-ninja" and "Confused-popstar-who-lost-his-memory-while-enroute-to-a-concert-performance". I am confused about the coat-tails tho, like, seriously. hhmm.
Have to say Andy, i'm worried this movie is going to suck. Agreed on Storm Shadows costume. What is with the leather????
ReplyDeleteThe Snake Eyes images have been cool though.
In the epic battle between leather and spandex, i'll vote for leather any 'ol time - but LONG "coat-tail"-leathers? yikes.
ReplyDeleteepic-suckage versus mindless-entertainment-suckage - i hope tis the latter - but am hoping to see video footage or trailer to compound my impression of this flick (im foolish that way LOL)
but i may yet haveta concur with ya Adriean - for all our sakes, let's hope we be wrong, yeh? LOL
NOW i have issues with Snake-Eye's new image - looks like the dude has black-sprayed all over his bare torso LOL
The trailer is supposed to hit this weekend during the Superbowl. So i'll wait and see when that comes out. But I have a reeeeeeeal bad feeling about this one.
ReplyDeleteI hear ya on Snake Eyes though. That isn't painted on is it?
I'm already anticipating the GI Joe 'reboot' once this dros is released.
