Three new images from G.I. Joe: Retaliation surface at Collider

Collider.com has scored some exclusive images from G.I. Joe: Retaliation featuring Snake Eyes, Flint, Jinx, Roadblock, Duke, and Joe Colton.  The images look to take place throughout various parts of the film, with the Joes in varying states of distress.

Check out the images at Collider, or mirrored below.

I know we’ve seen the Colton and shirtless Flint ones before, but the image of the four characters walking through fire is definitely a new one.  If you look at Roadblock, too, it looks as if he’s holding that suitcase launching system that Firefly and Zartan have been using in so many of the TV Spots and trailers.

Interesting…

Another new G.I. Joe: Retaliation clip to brighten up your Monday

Like the previously mentioned Mountain Battle scene, a lot of the footage here has been seen before, but there are a few seconds of new footage scattered throughout… enough to give me some serious goose bumps.  Thanks to ComingSoon.net for the heads up. Check it out on Paramount International’s YouTube page, or embedded below.

Amazing new “Mountain Battle” clip from G.I. Joe: Retaliation!

Well, this is a fine wake up call for a Monday morning, especially when my body still feels like it’s an hour earlier.  Entertainment.ie, which appears to be a European film site, has posted an exclusive clip from G.I. Joe: Retaliation featuring the very exciting Mountain Battle at the Arashikage temple!

Yes, there is a considerable amount of footage that we’ve seen, but there is also plenty that we haven’t seen.  It’s only about a minute in length, but it’s an AWESOME minute.

Check it out at Entertainment.ie!  It’s not embeddable, unfortunately, but as soon as there is one to embed, I’ll have it here.

EDIT: Video is now up on Paramount International’s YouTube page, which means embedded goodness!

We are officially at the halfway mark, and at Reason #21 Retaliation will ROCK!

Wow, it doesn’t seem like it’s already been 20 days since Twitziller started this campaign, and if the next 20 days go this quickly, I’ll be one heck of a happy Joefan, because I’ll be sitting in a movie theater getting ready to watch G.I. Joe: Retaliation!!  Today Twitziller covers one of the focal points of the entire film, and one that seems poised to deliver the thrills and excitement that perhaps the Paris Pursuit scene in the Rise of Cobra did not.  Time will tell…

#21:

With reports already out there that this mountain battle sequence will feature a 10 minute homage to issue #21, I think many of us are pretty excited to see how this will all finally transpire.  The most fascinating thing is that much of this battle has already been seen by folks, between the various trailers and the four minute sequence prior to Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters.  All of that being said, there is still a sense that seeing this on the big screen within the framework of the story will be an experience for sure.

I feel like I continue to hammer on the Rise of Cobra and the Paris Pursuit sequence specifically, but that’s not my intention.  I just thing that sequence being the main focus of the first G.I. Joe film was a mistake.  Beyond the fact that it was reportedly just a Stephen Sommers pet project that found life within a G.I. Joe movie, so much of it was a drastic departure from what many fans love about G.I. Joe.  I actually didn’t mind it as much as many people did, but with science fiction suits of armor, it didn’t necessarily feel like a G.I. Joe focused battle sequence.

The mountain battle on the other hand, with Snake Eyes, Jinx, and Red Ninjas galore, feels ripped from the pages of the Marvel Comics.  Fans and audience members who see this on the big screen have a palpable G.I. Joe related memory to tie it back to, and the fact that it was choreographed and implemented so well only serves to enhance that feeling.  It certainly looks like it’ll be a terrific sequence in the film, and one I cannot wait to experience myself, especially in 3D.

Follow Twitziller on Twitter for the latest updates to this, and you can keep hitting up GeneralsJoes to do the same.  Big thanks as always to Twitziller for allowing me to mirror his content here and for going through this project.  It’s an impressive feat, to be sure.  Previous entries can be seen below.
