Superhero fatigue has only just begun, my dahlings, and while I can indulge in a side of Robert Downey Jr. just as easily as any fanboy, the appeal of a live action G.I. Joe film completely evades me. This is perhaps because, even as a fairly hardcore tomboy, I preferred grooming my stable of My Little Pony-oriented hunks of plastic rather than strategize with a homogenous, army-green sea of plastic hunks. Whatever works.

Somebody important obviously believes a market for this film exists, for Paramount Pictures is currently shooting the G.I. Joe film in Prague. Since a leather-clad babe generally doesn’t hurt matters, I can only see the positive aspects of Sienna Miller taking on the role of the Baroness. Of course, these bloodied-up images of Sienna sort of remind me of Le Chiffre, who just happens to conjure up thoughts of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. Naturally, this could be part of the attraction. Bloody hell.
