Apparently getting some good access somewhere recently, IGN (who just posted a video interview with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson) has just posted a new “flipcam” interview, this time not only talking to Johnson, but also to Retaliation director Jon M Chu and producer Lorenzo Di Bonaventura. Check out the embedded video below.
Minor update to yesterday’s story about the G.I. Joe: Renegades DVD, but the Amazon.com listing has now posted the box art to the upcoming Season 1, Part 1. Very cool, evocative art that looks a lot like the figure packaging and featuring Duke, Cobra Commander, Snake Eyes, and Storm Shadow.
Check out the Amazon listing, the artwork below and thanks to Captain N for the info again!
And it’s another great one. I posted a short while ago about Jim Sorenson’s upcoming book focused on the art of the Sunbow G.I. Joe animated series…well, the JDSO podcast wasted no time in actually getting him on the show to talk about it. We now know this book will be called “The Field Manual”, and should provide some interesting behind the scenes information to any Joe fans out there.
Best part of the interview is the idea that if this book does well, there’s a good potential for future books to come, from the Resolute or Renegades universe. How cool would that be?
For all of the latest and greatest intel on this book or potential future projects, be sure to keep an eye on Jim Sorenson’s blog.
It’s a great interview, and you also get the same level of G.I. Joe news and information that you’ve come to expect. Check out the JDSO Podbean Page, or hit up the embedded player below to listen.
Taking a page from Hasbro’s handbook, Sideshow is riding the coat tails of G.I. Joe’s most popular character, the enigmatic Ninja commando Snake Eyes…but also like Hasbro, they’re doing such a great job giving him updated looks that even the most disparaging fan can’t help but be at least a little impressed.
Featuring his classic look and an awesome Commando aesthetic, this quick peek at G.I. Joe’s most infamous member already has my mouth drooling. Plus he comes with Timber! Sideshow announces a more in depth look at the Production Blog on March 13th, with pre-orders launching next Thursday, March 15th.
Get your keyboards ready, this one could be a hot one. Check out the sneak peek right here, or simply the mirrored image below.
