I absolutely cannot say enough for my site visitors. I have a couple of guys in the UK who absolutely went above and beyond to bring us these reports. Dave Tree talked about the footage he saw a little over a week ago, and now Russ Sheath has taken considerable time and effort to do this write up for GeneralsJoes as well. They get no payment for this, they do it because they enjoy the site and they want G.I. Joe fans to get an idea of what to expect when June 29th comes.
I feel extremely honored that they would choose GeneralsJoes as a place to post this information, and cannot thank them enough. Fantastic, fantastic coverage.
Russ is a regular contributor to Aint it Cool News, and he sent them one screening report, and then wrote up a specific post geared towards Joe fans for GeneralsJoes as well. Awesome. Russ and Dave, you guys are both awesome.
This screening report encompasses about 10 minutes of footage, and could be considered rich spoiler material, so tread forward with caution. There is a LOT of detail here, and Russ went through a ton of work, so hopefully folks can read it through, enjoy it, and get a good idea of what to expect come June 29th. I know I am extremely excited.
Good morning, G.I. Joe fans! Well for folks who are eager to know what all the little details are for the upcoming G.I. Joe: Retaliation film, I have got a treat for you today. Paramount did some footage screening for some very select individuals over the past week or two, and GeneralsJoes is lucky enough to have a few reports of that footage for you today!
A big friend of GeneralsJoes and the What’s on Joe Mind podcast Dave Tree from Roll Out Roll Call got to see this footage live and in person, and he did some fantastic work getting this intel dissected and reported to us.
Please keep in mind that some of the footage descriptions you read below could be considered spoilers! If you are looking to go into the film clean and pure, you may want to avoid reading this post.

First of all, I apologize for the delay in getting this posted. I am in Kansas City on business and every once in a while, the job’s gotta come first. 😉
Now that my belly is full and our corporate visions for the next year are decided, time for G.I. Joe! The guys over at HissTank.com not only got screen grabs, but also uploaded the ET Footage to YouTube, and holy hell is it awesome.
We get Cobra Commander firing from some cool looking Cobra helicopter, we have Zartan wounding himself and healing (with trademark blue skin!!) and we have mutha fuggin HISS Tanks. HISS. TANKS. Woah. If I’m getting this geeked out over the footage from ET, how is the trailer going to hit me? Anyway, check out the ET footage embedded below, courtesy of HissTank.com.
Curse me and my business trip taking me half way across the country with no access to my DVR! The Entertainment Tonight footage has aired, and HissTank.com has a bevy of new screen grabs from it!
Now didn’t I tell you all that it would be a big week for G.I. Joe: Retaliation news? 😉
I haven’t been able to dig up a specific source as of yet, but a fellow G.I. Joe fan who works within the television industry as I understand it, has revealed that Entertainment Tonight will be showing some unseen footage from G.I. Joe: Retaliation tonight in advance of the trailer.
I am working to confirm this information, but I wanted readers to make sure they turn on the TV tonight in time for ET. More information as it develops.
Unfortunately I will be at a business dinner tonight, but I will be logging on very shortly after the footage launch to soak in the Retaliation greatness. I can’t WAIT.
And when they say April 24th, they mean April 24th on the dot, at least Pacific Time.
Machinima reports through their Twitter feed that as of midnight tonight, PST, they will launch a brand-spanking new G.I. Joe: Retaliation trailer to the world! Yes, boys and girls, that’s 3:00am Eastern. And yes, boys and girls, GeneralsJoes will be online and ready!
Along with the trailer launch, you can expect some more intel and details in regards to the upcoming G.I. Joe: Retaliation, and much of that intel is new information! There could be spoilers about, but trust me when I say you want to get up bright and early to see how thoroughly GeneralsJoes is covering G.I. Joe: Retaliation.
I don’t want to put words in Gary’s virtual mouth either, but there is a possibility we’ll have a special edition podcast live as well. We’ll have to see just how quickly it can be edited together.
Let the countdown begin… 10.5 hours and counting until new G.I. Joe: Retaliation footage appears via a new trailer on Machinima. I can’t wait!
