Two potential endings for G.I. Joe: Retaliation being test screened?

Thanks to GeneralsJoes Twitter buddy and host of the General Geekery podcast NFC JD for passing along word that apparently there are two working endings for G.I. Joe: Retaliation being test-screened for select crowds.

It is currently unknown what is the difference between the two endings, but Nuke the Fridge reports that this is indeed occurring.

There were also rumors of a similar thing happening in G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra…  in fact, I believe Steven Sommers mentioned in the director’s commentary that a few elements were changed at the last minute with the first film.  At one point, Storm Shadow admitted to Snake Eyes that he didn’t kill the Hard Master just before Snake Eyes stabbed him and dropped him into below zero arctic waters…apparently that scene was determined to be too extreme, considering Snake Eyes was a “good guy” and the dialogue was dropped.

Secondly, there were rumors that both Cobra Commander and Destro were supposed to escape, but test audience reaction was so strong that the film was reshot to show the two Cobra leaders indeed being captured.  It would be interesting to know what the difference in the two endings might be this time around. Check out the information on Nuke the Fridge.

My only question is, who is being invited to these things and how the hell do I get on that list?

Aerosmith will provide song for G.I. Joe: Retaliation film

We haven’t heard any information about an official soundtrack of anything for G.I. Joe: Retaliation, but apparently Aerosmith is providing a track for the film, according to Steven Tyler and antimusic.com.

The song is called Legendary Children and was supposedly originally recorded in conjunction with Aerosmith’s 1993 album “Get a Grip”.  According to both Tyler and guitarist Brad Whitford, the song will debut on American Idol at some point in May.

More news on this as it develops.

Trio of new G.I. Joe: Retaliation images revealed

The real source of these images is a bit cloudy, but according to Cosmic Book News, the images come from Kino Gallery which is a Russian photo gallery site, and may be tied into the Russian Movie Expo which was very recently held.

These three new images feature Adrianne Palicki as Lady Jaye, Elodie Young as Jinx, and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson as Roadblock.  Check out the mirrored images below.

G.I. Joe: Retaliation Daytona 500 TV Spot Screencap Gallery

It’s a tradition unlike any other!  No, not the Daytona 500 itself, the dissection of the latest G.I. Joe: Retaliation trailer or TV spot via screencap gallery!

Like all the other trailers and TV spots, I ran this one through the ole software and pulled apart lots of great screen grabs, so big thanks to HissTank.com for uploading in HD!  Not a whole lot of new stuff.  Some clearer images (compared to yesterday’s TV spot) and a few new details.  Love the shot of the Ripsaw jumping into the air.  Also love the little touch like what appears to be a Cobra logo lapel pin on the Secret Service Agent who Colton is whipping the ass of.  Little attentions to detail like that are very cool.

Also a scene with Zartan as The President possibly talking to…the REAL president?  Tough to tell, but almost seems like it.  Good stuff.  Check out the images below, and as always, these will be mirrored on the G.I. Joe: Retaliation SuperPage.
