As trailers, PSA’s or featurettes come close to airing, they need to be classified equal or less than the film or item they precede. The Alberta Film Ratings site is notorious for posting these classifications publicly, which can provide some insight into when to expect some of these items to hit the air.
One of the latest items to be classified, is entitled G.I. Joe: Retaliation Featurette, and it appears on the site with a PG rating and clocking in at just under four minutes. The content of the featurette itself is unknown, but this site has pretty close to 100% reliability when it comes to predicting these things.
UD Replicas is a company that specializes in custom leather motorcycle wear using film properties as an inspiration. They can be actual wearable items, or collectibles, designed to reflect your favorite properties straight from the motion picture screen. Carrying massive licenses like Avengers and Batman, UD Replicas will also be doing product from both G.I. Joe: Retaliation and G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. Items include Cobra Commander’s bad ass leather jacket, the Baroness’ trench coat, and a cool battle vest from the sequel film.

At least according to the Twitter account UK Film Premieres, which seems to be legitimate from what I can tell. According to this Tweet, the G.I. Joe: Retaliation UK film premier will hit in February, 2013 and will have Bruce Willis, Channing Tatum, and Adrianne Palicki in attendance.
Obviously this hasn’t been officially announced by Paramount yet, but some quick research of past Tweets from this account seem to indicate a level of legitimacy, so we’ll go with it for now.
And with a sudden jolt, you realize just how close we are to the release of the film. Under 90 days until it hits American theaters. Holy wow!
Joe fans and horror movie fans, check it out and let me know what you think! Already Twitter buddy Count Geekula has seen it, and even though he generally dislikes 3D conversions, he said this looks pretty good. Thanks to Jon Chu on Twitter for the intel!

In all seriousness, this was a homecoming of sorts as we all got back together to do a real live episode for the first time in well over a month, and we had a ton of news to cover! If that’s not all, the rest of the crew (alongside YoJoe guru Terry Dizard) spoke with Bill Ratner, the voice of Flint in the Sunbow animated series.
Make sure you don’t miss me and Chuck throwing down about Michael Bay and the Transformers franchise… it’s one for the ages!
