No pun intended in the title… ah, who am I kidding? Pun definitely intended. It’s a Friday, which means Twitziller is focusing on a major factor today, and that factor is one that many of us can probably guess, especially based on my horrible pun up above.
#7:
I know I’ve mentioned in the past how humorous it is that only ten years ago, Hasbro could barely even keep the copyright active for Roadblock, and here we are with the character the focal point of the entire film franchise. I think the character is a great choice, and the actor is equally great for this role. So why does Roadblock make sense for the film? He’s a larger than life character, with a lot of personality. He’s someone who still has some open ends in his history, yet he’s familiar enough with fans to resonate. He was a focal point in the cartoon, and had some very key roles in the comics as well, and was one of the few characters who could transcend both.

Wow…somehow I did it. I really didn’t think I’d be able to make this all happen, but I managed to get all of the G.I. Joe Kre-O sets reviewed in a single week. Yeah, I’m patting myself on the back for that one, deal with it. Check out the G.I. Joe Kre-O review page for all of the details on these terrific sets, or hit up the direct links below:
Also I was able to get the Battle Platform review updated with images of the RAM motorcycle. I apologize for that little snafu, but all is right with the world. Thanks to all the folks who gave me a heads up.

I hadn’t seen any mention of this, and I don’t have any of these locally, but friend of GeneralsJoes Joe H. made me aware that apparently Carls Jr. is giving away cups from the G.I. Joe: Retaliation film. More details can be found on CarlsJr.com. Thanks for the info, Joe!

Big thanks to Collider for posting a great, monstrous gallery of high resolution images in celebration of next week’s G.I. Joe: Retaliation launch! There are plenty of images here that we’ve seen before, but there are also some great new ones as well. Check out Collider, and I’ve also mirrored the images below.

I haven’t seen it advertised myself, but GeneralsJoes reader Mike I. is telling me that Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is slated to appear on the Jay Leno show tonight, likely to promote both G.I. Joe: Retaliation and WWE Wrestlemania.
They often show clips from the films actors are there to promote, so Joe fans may want to keep an eye on this one tonight.
Thanks to Mike for the information.
