No way, a comic book storyline where a character comes back to life?

That wasn't his question. He was asking why the ad campaign spoiled Storm Shadow's return rather than leave it as a surprise for when people see the movie for the first time. My point was that he's a popular character and the marketers weren't going to resist using his return to promote the film.

The American ad campaign spoiled his return first.

Looks like great over-the-top fun, like the first (only even better).

Sure does but, unless Di Bonaventura was full of shit, I'm guessing Duke makes a last minute reappearance during the finale.

Cobra Special Forces

Cobra in charge and Joe on the run, is very similar to the Renegades cartoon, and the new storyline in the comics.

Re: G.I.Joe 2 Coming
While speaking with Collider, "G.I. Joe: Retaliation" director Jon Chu revealed there is a scene in the upcoming film that pays homage to the classic silent issue of the comic book series, "G.I. Joe" #21. Apparently, there is a nine to ten minute sequence of ninja action completely without dialogue.

Oh my, 9-10 minutes homage to issue 21!

Probably the mountain scene we have seen in the trailers.

Sienna Miller wasn't hot in that movie. She was a blazing supernova. But she didn't have a bouncy tits on treadmill scene like Nichols did.

Re: G.I.Joe 2 Coming
Firefly's bug bombs remind me of the Insecticons. Will we eventually get a cinematic G.I. Joe/Transformers crossover?

Holy shit. I cannot possibly be any more excited about this film. That issue is my all-time favorite comic. (I still have it somewhere.)

Re: G.I.Joe 2 Coming
While AICN was able to see 9 minutes of footage from GI Joe Retaliation, Omelete from Brazil was able to see 15 minutes last week. Here's a breakdown of 3 pivotal scenes that they saw(WARNING: slight spoilers, read at your own risk!):

Spoiler:
The Great Escape
It is an extended version of the first scene of the new trailer, which has FireFly (Ray Stevenson) attacking from the outside of a fortress, while Storm Shadow (Byung-hun Lee) fakes cardiac arrest to start the escape plan and release of Cobra Commander, who appears without a mask, with more breathing problems than an asthmatic Darth Vader. Then we learned of the infiltration in the White House and plan to destroy the world (well illustrated with a huge explosion in London.) The sequence ends with the trio of Joes to General Colton (Bruce Willis), Joe of all Joes, asking something in return for aid.

Snake Eyes VS Storm Shadow
The rematch between the two ninjas. A battle that seems unfair, shurikens against a machine gun that can destroy the ninja stars while they are thrown and ends with daggers "out" in a clash between the two. Cut to getting The Rock "a vehicle that works fine in neutral," but he prefers a little more speed.

Fighting in the mountains
This sequence had already been briefly shown in the first trailer and must redefine the use of wire-fu (fighting with steel cables) in Hollywood films. This longer version has more agents of Cobra going up against the Joes, we can see that it has everything to become iconic and endlessly copied. The scene ends in an unexpected way, with a sacrifice.

Re: G.I.Joe 2 Coming
Given the look on
Spoiler:
Jinx'
face in the trailer, I'm guessing
Spoiler:
either she sacrifices herself during the avalanche sequence or she witnesses Blind Master sacrificing himself so she and Snake Eyes can escape.


Interesting comment regarding CC.
Spoiler:
Either he is in fact the same character from the first movie or the first CC is rescued and then killed by the new CC.
Looking forward to see how that plays out.



Oh and here's the second international trailer:

<object width="640" height="360"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/zntbw0FXVo8&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&version=3"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/zntbw0FXVo8&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&version=3" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="640" height="360"></embed></object>

Why would Jinx escape with Storm Shadow? Snake Eyes?
