I think everyone figured it was a done deal anyway, but somewhat lost in the shuffle was that the G.I. Joe Q & A answers on JoeReloaded.com have confirmed that there will definitely be a Rise of COBRA sequel!
Q. Has the box office receipts of GI Joe: Rise of Cobra met or exceeded Hasbro’s expectations? Are they enough to officially green light a sequel?
A. G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra box office results are strong globally, and Paramount has confirmed that there will be sequel.
So there you have it. Thanks to Ed Dam of JoeCanuck.com for pointing that out to me as I kind of glossed over it while gathering all the links together.
im not sure if anyone around me will be able to put up with me while i wait for the sequel. especially my wife.
all that poor woman heard after RoC was greenlit is… “GI Joe! GI Joe! GI Joe! GI Joe! GI Joe! GI Joe! GI Joe! GI Joe! GI Joe! GI Joe! GI Joe! GI Joe!”
score one for the good guys!
Yeah, I don’t know where folks were getting the idea that we wouldn’t get another. This movie would have had to do REALLY bad for that, and I thought it did pretty well. I expected a sequel one way or the other.
We are not surprised.
The way the movie was made, a sequel is expected.
Bring it on!
I was thinking about the new Delta acelerator suit and the neovipers new concept. And… I think the regular ‘blue’ grunt cobra troops won’t fit this new concept in a ROC sequel. But I hope I’m wrong…
I’m also eager to see some new Joes and Cobras on the next! And I hope they DO fix some stuff at the next movie.
I mean… what are the joes that should be driving sharks and planes… come on… as well as going to artic missions…
Maybe a budget-limit issue on actors-staff ?
