Re: G.I.Joe 2 Coming
I played w/ those cheesy as hell GI Joe figures...I enjoyed the cartoons though I can't watch them now cuz..well...you know..it's pretty bad. THOUGH given the cast...and giving me balls to the wall action? I'm there. Or..I'm more open to being there.

I played with the toys, watched the cartoon (and can still enjoy it today), and had a blast with the first movie. So far my only gripe with this one is that certain cast members aren't returning. Otherwise, this is shaping up to be a fun ride.

Re: G.I.Joe 2 Coming
I liked the first one enough. My only real gripes were Snake-Eyes having a mouth and cargo-pants (which I hear they fixed), Wayans being there (fixed), and robot battle suits (hopefully fixed).
I like the rotating cast concept idea and I even don't mind Tatum since he did a nice job in Eagle. I'm looking forward to this.

Re: G.I.Joe 2 Coming
I'm cool with a rotating cast (how else do you get the other Joes in there?) but I want some actual acknowledgment (say they're on a mission elsewhere) or at least cameos from the previous characters.

Bruce Willis in negotiations to join the cast:

I like the casting choices so far...........

Bruce Willis in talks to join the cast of Paramount’s G.I. Joe 2: Retaliation, with the veteran action actor marked to play the original Joe.
Willis, if a deal comes together, would play General Joe Colton, the man who in 1980s comic books starts the G.I. Joe strike team, called the ultimate freedom fighting force, and got the handle G.I. Joe.

It'll be great if he does sign on. I'd also like it if Dennis Quaid came back. Joe Colton and General Hawk would make a great team.

Ray-Park Here is a quick little update from Ray Park (Snake Eyes of G. I. Joe Live Action Movie Series). Mr. Park tweeted to tell…
"Met the whole cast today 4 G.I JOE 2. Everyone is Awesome! Met The Rock today. He is awesome. I'm a big fan of his. Super nice gentleman!!"
Apparently, The Rock is popular with everyone. First it was Channing Tatum, now Ray Park.
Hopefully, we'll hear more news as the momentum picks-up

Director of G. I. Joe 2; Mr. Jon M. Chu updated his official Twitter page with a very special Tweet…
“Shooting film for GI JOE: RETALIATION. Yes film. Not video. I could smell the emulsion at today's test ”
He also said…
“@RAYPARKACTION oh yeah!! Snake Eyes is back.”
Three days ago he had done a shout-out to Elodie Yung as well…
“Everyone follow @elodieyung an amazingly talented and beautiful actress in GI JOE 2!! She plays Jinx and she just joined twitter!! Say hi”
Anyway… is this the confirmation of the title of G. I. Joe 2?

Elodie Yung was great in Banlieue 13: Ultimatum. Looking forward to her as Jinx.

I'm excited for this movie. Even though it gets panned, I enjoyed the first one. I recognize it's not the best movie, but it was fun popcorn fair. It was my transformers, but it seems like they're going in the direction I really want for the sequel. Bring it on, bitches!
I do hope they just recast the role of Cobra Commander, if there is going to be a third. I dig JGL, but I'd like to see a more traditional CC.

Re: G.I.Joe 2 Coming
Good God, so much news:
The Rock posted a pic in full costume.
Variety has learned that Walton Goggins, best known for his roles on the FX series The Shield and Justified, has been added to the lineup of G. I. Joe: Retaliation. While the trade doesn't include any details about the role, Goggins will be playing an original character named Warden Nigel James.
Looks like bullets continue to fly down in St. Francisville, LA with filming of the second live action G.I. Joe Movie Retaliation. Today an exciting bit of news out of the filming base camp "The Sand PIT" brings us news or rumor that Lt Falcon will join the ever growing list of GI Joe Team Members for the upcoming GI Joe Retaliation.
Lt Falcon was in the Animated movie, voiced by Don Johnson

Re: G.I.Joe 2 Coming
Will Lt. Falcon be Duke's brother or Gen. Hawk's son (as was originally intended)?
