GI Joe Movie a Disaster in Pre Screenings...Director Possibly Fired? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

A number of sites today are pushing forward the story that G.I. Joe director Stephen Sommers has been locked out of the film’s editing room, based on a post from film producer Don Murphy’s message board (now removed), as noticed by Latino Review. The story is picking up steam, in part thanks to vaguely corroborative posts by people like Jeff Wells. And while I can’t verify the story, I have heard several really bad things about the film from a few informed sources. Common word is that it is a disaster for Paramount, and that a lot of unplanned post-production work was done to amp up the action and excitement factors and possibly just to make the thing watchable.

I figured it would bomb. I say give all remakes/reboots to JJ Abrams.

Well the curiosity factor will have them watching the first weekend, if it is that bad, word of mouth will spread like wildfire!
