Now this poster is pretty cool. Not a whole lot of action, just featuring mostly head shots of the cast, we get some pretty cool layout, some London damage in the background, and a very cool shot of Cobra Commander, Storm Shadow, and a masked Firefly all along the bottom. I dig this poster big time.
Thanks to NFCJD for pointing it out, and you can find it on ImpAwards.com.
And what the hell. Still no Flint? It’s a conspiracy, dammit! Don’t worry, DJ Cotrona, there are fans out here who still love you.
Gotta love social media. This whole G.I. Joe: Retaliation phenomenon exploded when both Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Jon M. Chu began their Twitter campaigns during the film’s production.
Well, now that filming is mostly wrapped, we have the Cobra Special Forces Facebook page, designed as a social media recruitment tool of sorts, revealing some very cool images from the G.I. Joe: Retaliation film. To this point it’s been pictures of the Cobra Troopers…but today, we get Firefly! An awesome image of the Cobra saboteur from what looks like a scene after he blows up the building with the Cobra motorcycle. Check out the image below, and make sure you’re dialed into Cobra Special Forces on Facebook as well!
Thanks to ComingSoon.net we have a look at the last G.I. Joe: Retaliation theatrical poster. The poster takes some imagery from the previous character posters and combines it all into one pretty cool looking theatrical poster for the film.
Loving how this looks. Another poster to add to my growing “want list”! Check out the original post on ComingSoon.net, and also mirrored below. Thanks to the Twitter account for the General Geekery Podcast for the heads up!
UPDATE – It looks like there are also posters for Brazil and the UK as well, which I’ve included in the gallery below. The Brazil one is the split one that actually has Firefly in it. The other one with Lee Byung-Hun subtly included is for the UK.
So, poor Flint is 0 for 3 on Retaliation posters. What did he ever do to you, Paramount?!? Thanks to toycollector962 for the updated info.
The past few episodes of What’s on Joe Mind have been somewhat of a whirlwind…between the big 50th Episode, the special edition focusing on G.I. Joe: Retaliation, and our one year anniversary we’ve been trying to do a lot of special things. Well, episode 53 the guys get back to basics a little bit, bringing 12″ aficionado Ace Allgood back to the show and beginning the push towards JoeCon 2012!
I unfortunately had to sit this one out as my hectic business trip to Kansas City left me with strep throat, but I’m looking forward to listening to it with the rest of you guys! Check out the newest episode on our Podbean page, or listen via the embedded player below. As always, show notes are after the jump.
Thanks to Twitter bud toycollector962 for pointing out some great video interviews with the folks involved in the production of G.I. Joe: Retaliation… nothing new or ground breaking, but still, some interviews we have not yet seen (that I’m aware of).
While there isn’t any new footage revealed that I can tell in this new Japanese TV spot for G.I. Joe: Retaliation, there is a short intro by Lee Byung-Hun as well as a short closing by Bruce Willis. It almost looks like there’s a scene of Cobra Commander, Firefly, and President Zartan in the middle that might be new, but I’m not certain on that.
Check it out on YouTube, or hit up the embedded player below. Big thanks to skinny from Serpentors Lair for the heads up!
