A few different sites are announcing that a new extended trailer for G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA has been released, however there doesn’t look to much new footage, with the exception of a short conversation between Ripcord and Duke in their Accelerator Suits at the end. It seems to be an amalgamation of sorts of the original trailer from a while ago, and the recent MTV TV Spot that came out a few weeks ago. There are some very brief snippets of additional video, but nothing of major consequence.
First reported by MovieWeb, you can see the embedded video below.
Anyone who has been a G.I. Joe fan for any length of time knows the name Mark Bellomo, mostly from his Ultimate Guide to G.I. Joe book. Well, now he’s produced a Second Edition with countless improvements and additions to the content, and I highly recommend it. In fact, it gets pretty much my highest recommendation for any Joe fan. Even as someone who is really into the Anniversary stuff, seventeen bucks is a tiny investment for a great look “behind the curtain” of the hobby, as well as just the reference images themselves. Buy it. Now.
I’ve been lucky enough to know Mark for a long time, and the effort he puts into these books is impressive to say the least. He was also kind enough to spend some time answering my pesky questions, and I’ve supplied the exclusive interview below.
