Why wait until the big game on Sunday? Apple iTunes trailers has officially debuted the latest G.I. Joe: Retaliation trailer and you can find it right here!
Unlike the first trailer, it’s only 30 seconds long, but it’s 30 seconds of unbridled awesome! HOLY!! Between the figures and this… good GRIEF. How am I supposed to finish my work day??
In a week already chock full of G.I. Joe: Retaliation news and information, USA Today comes through with another awesome G.I. Joe onslaught!
Courtesy of USA Today resident geek Brian Truitt, and mere days before the 2012 Toy Fair, we get our first looks at upcoming G.I. Joe: Retaliation action figures. The excellent USA Today article gives us a peek at:
Roadblock
Cobra Commander
Cobra Trooper
Duke
G.I. Joe Trooper
Red Ninja
Snake Eyes
Storm Shadow
Zartan
Upon first glance, it would appear many of these figures are not necessarily movie accurate, but bring a very cool modern style with some classic elements, too. Some more insight after more digestion. Hit up USA Today to check out the entire article! Also be sure to follow Brian Truitt on Twitter to keep all up to date with the latest intel.
That 10 second snippet from Entertainment Tonight last night barely qualified as a “teaser”, but Jon Chu brings great news to the table! That’s right, you don’t have to wait for Super Bowl Sunday to see the new trailer for G.I. Joe: Retaliation. According to Chu, the trailer will debut on iTunes/Apple trailers TODAY.
A specific time was not given, but trust me, GeneralsJoes will be all over this one. Can’t WAIT!
And no, he still won’t admit to being killed off! He spoke with MTV on camera about the G.I. Joe sequel and opened up a tiny bit about how he thinks it’s going to turn out. To the interviewer’s credit, she tried pretty hard to get him to admit his character wasn’t making it all the way through the film, but Tatum did not bite.

Today turned from a normal day to a G.I. Joe: Retaliation whirlwind with word from Jon Chu that not only would a Retaliation trailer be released during the Super Bowl, but that Entertainment Tonight would show a glimpse of that same trailer tonight!
Well a “glimpse” is certainly all it was…a barely 10 second look at the trailer, and with hardly any new footage. But being the Retaliation junkie that I am, I captured it and YouTubed it.
The quality isn’t great, but for a small sampling like this, I didn’t feel like pouring over the capture software to get the best render possible. Hopefully it’s acceptable. The one on Sunday promises to be a bit more exciting, I’d imagine!
