Another character feature has been uploaded to Paramount’s International YouTube Channel, this time it’s Roadblock. We’ve seen some Roadblock ones before, but this features some behind the scenes footage and some snippets of new footage.

It is with yet another debt of gratitude that I thank Russ Sheath for once again agreeing to represent GeneralsJoes as he makes the rounds with Paramount and getting some fantastic interviews on the plate for G.I. Joe fans everywhere. Russ is a contributor for Aint It Cool News, and the interview will be mirrored over there as well, but he has ever so graciously allowed GeneralsJoes a whack at it as well. Just like with Director Jon Chu this weekend as well as the London Red Carpet Premiere, Russ (and Dave) from the UK have knocked the ball out of the park.
I cannot thank him or them enough. As an added bonus, this interview is terrific! Rheese and Wernick go into full G.I. Joe geek mode in some places, and add some really key insight into the backgrounds of the characters and the history behind this great franchise.

I think it says a lot about G.I. Joe as a brand and a property when they take what was arguably their strongest female character and kill her off, but are then able to find another equally strong female character to take the lead in the G.I. Joe: Retaliation sequel. Twitziller recognizes the critical importance of Lady Jaye in the realm of G.I. Joe as well in today’s update.
#4:
Various clips, trailers, and TV spots have shown a Lady Jaye who is “take no prisoners” and “take no gruff” from anyone. She is able to let all the men’s comments slide off her back, and lets her actions on the field of battle prove her worth to the G.I. Joe team.
As the apparent weapons expert and marksman of the G.I. Joe team, Lady Jaye unleashes all sorts of weapons of destruction through the film and Adrianne Palicki does a great job backing it up. There is no doubt she is a key player in this universe and her introduction in this film has made a big impact.

Well, to be fair, there are only 8 reviews so far.
And to be fair, when Rise of Cobra launched, it had great Rotten Tomatoes ratings after a few days as well. So trying not to get hopes up too much, but currently, after 8 reviews, the Rotten Tomatoes rating for G.I. Joe: Retaliation is at 88% with reviews being by and large quite glowing and positive. I do fully expect this to change over the coming days, but so far out of the gate, I like what I see.
Check out the latest Rotten Tomatoes ratings right here.
I swear, I’m making efforts to try and not post every one of these things that I see but I’m really looking forward to seeing Cotrona’s portrayal of Flint in the new G.I. Joe: Retaliation film, so I do feel compelled to at least post this video interview from I Am Rogue. It’s a pretty decent and blunt one-on-one with the actor.

In celebration of G.I. Joe: Retaliation striking theaters THIS WEEK not only is GeneralsJoes bringing a wealth of new content to the table, but I’m also pulling out some of the older content that had been drawn up in anticipation of the original release way too long ago.
Just after the trailer launched, I took a blow-by-blow analysis of the trailer and generated a 10 Questions/Answers Revealed article. The original article can be found right here, but I’ve also mirrored it after the jump. I think it’s really fun to revisit some of these older articles and see how things have changed, or if they’ve changed throughout the past several months.
Believe it or not, this original article was written December 13, 2011. Wow. Suddenly I feel old. Check it out:
