G.I. Joe Sequel Confirmed!

The Cast is locked in but guess who's not?
This from the L.A. Times:

"The studio's vice chairman, Rob Moore, confirmed that a sequel will soon go into development. The film's lead actors are contractually obligated to return for another film, though director Stephen Sommers is not."

That should make you non Sommer's fan's happy. Now if they could just get rid of Marlon Wayans and Channing Tatum (replace with Tyrese Gibson and Sam Worthington) then we could possibly be all set.

Below is the list of this past weekend's top movies.

1. "G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra" (Paramount/Spyglass): Opened to $56.2 million domestically and $44 million overseas.

2. "Julie & Julia" (Sony Pictures): $20.1 million on its first weekend.

3. "G-Force" (Disney): Down 44% on its third weekend to $9.8 million. Total ticket sales in the U.S. and Canada: $86.1 million. Not great given the $150-million production budget.

4. "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" (Warner Bros.): $8.9 million, a decline of 50% on its fourth weekend. Domestic total: $273.8 million.

5. "Funny People" (Universal/Sony/Relativity): A sharp drop of 65% on its second weekend to $7.9 million. Total domestic ticket sales: $40.4 million

As a fun fact, Watchmen opened domestically at $55 million.

WHO DID XXX? I WANT THAT DIRECTOR
GUNSMITH - 8/10/2009, 12:05 PM
HELL YEAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!



COBRA HAVE RISEN!

JMAN @ You da Man!!! ; )

RedSkull @ Thanx buddy! ; D
LEEE777 - 8/10/2009, 12:06 PM
gunsmith@ rob cohen. he could do a good one.

there are alot of things in this that need to not come back. this movie will fade quickly, barely make as much as watchmen so im surprised to see that they are so quick with a sequel.
superdog - 8/10/2009, 12:07 PM
So, you have a shite barge on the river, and you change the captain halfway through the trip... does it make it smell any better?

Perhaps i'm being a little harsh, but i didn't find a whole lot of redeeming qualities about this film, from casting on up. So, does this mean a "reinvisioning" of the direction of this franchise... after its opening weekend? Sounds like trouble.
version4 - 8/10/2009, 12:08 PM
Sequels as a rule follow the tone of the first but in a larger scale sooooo expect an even dumber film next :)
teabag - 8/10/2009, 12:08 PM
I thought Channing Tatum and Marlon Wayans were good in their roles.
Bandrews1 - 8/10/2009, 12:09 PM
Even if sommers leaves I hope they don't change the cast
I liked them.
fastracer - 8/10/2009, 12:09 PM
think they should keep Marlon Wayans and Channing Tatum
cuz they just fit together Marlon had just the right amount of funny you know not to much but no to little and Channing worked good with Marlon and Tatum just had that look and feel
kyle12688 - 8/10/2009, 12:11 PM
Without Sommers and the magical moron twins a sequel might work...no, what the hell am i saying! What would happen in a sequel? Cobra plans to take over the world and the Joes stop them? Awesome! How about in a 3rd movie? Cobra plans to take over the world and the Joes stop them? Bring it on!
Rorschach01 - 8/10/2009, 12:12 PM
BRING IT ON!!!
LEEE777 - 8/10/2009, 12:13 PM
they were the worst on screen buddies since martin and lewis. horrible
superdog - 8/10/2009, 12:13 PM
Boys @ Seriously, this is GI JOE!

We can can get FLINT to take over DUKES role, or DUKE have a lesser role in 2!!! Nothing wrong wiv DUKE, but then i suppose TATUM'S got a couple of years to up his game!

As for RIPCORD, he'll be like JAR JAR, make an appearance or something lol! Though i had no problem with WAYANS acting, bit over the top in places but cool enough!

GI JOE is bigger than a handful of JOES, there will be more main roles, which will make it work even more! ; )
LEEE777 - 8/10/2009, 12:17 PM
We need a reboot and not a sequel!!!
Ozymandias - 8/10/2009, 12:17 PM
I'll tell you what, if they made it like that cartoon movie i watched on youtube last night I'd go see it! Talk about insane! That was balls to the wall bonkers. If they had snake people and flying spores and mutated shit it would at least be worth a look
Rorschach01 - 8/10/2009, 12:20 PM
OZY @ Did you not see it????

It basically will be completely different will more JOES and COBRA in it man! GEEZUZ! : D

LUFFY @ NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO don't watch a crappy fuzzy version online, watch it on the BIG SCREEN!

ROR @ Lol, that animated movie was abit mad heh heh! Hey did you watch the whole lot of it?
LEEE777 - 8/10/2009, 12:21 PM
personally i thought the movie was good,...but couldve been better but good..
warmachine88 - 8/10/2009, 12:22 PM
@Rorschach01:I prey to god you will not see this film!

@LEEE777:Well if they make a sequel it better be hell of a lot better then this sad attempt.Get Zack Snyder in there and youll have a good sequel.
Ozymandias - 8/10/2009, 12:22 PM
I KINDA WOULD HAVE LIKED A DUKE AND SCARLETT KINDA ROMANCE THING INSTEAD OF RIPCHORD, AND IF IT WAS RIPCHORD, I WOULD HAVE PREFERRED THEOTHER WAYANS BROTHER AS OPPOSED TO MARLON, THE OTHER ONE..WHITECHICKS, SEE THAT GUY I CAN SEE PLAY A JOE, HE JUST COMES ACROSS BETTER ACTIONWISE BUT CAN ALSO BE FUNNY , MARLON, I JUST KEEP REMEMBERING HIM PLAYING EXTREMELY GOOFY CHARACTERS.RISE OF COBRA WAS THE VERY BEGINNING, PROBABLLY WHAT WE SEE NEXT IS A MORE FAMILIAR LOOK,JUST LIKE DARKNIGHT WAS FROM BATMAN BEGINS, GI JOE SHOULD CHANGE TO BE THE IDEALIZED TEAM WE EXPECT TO SEE
GUNSMITH - 8/10/2009, 12:24 PM
ACTUALLY LEE, throwing Flint into the mix to replace Duke just might work.... have Duke and Ripcord taking care of something... mutant butterflies or something.. somewhere else in the world. This front would feature Flint, Lady J, and Gung Ho trying to match wits with Zartan and Zaranna... maybe taking orders from CC via comlink or something. It could take a whole new direction, and a new director could step in and polish the thing.
version4 - 8/10/2009, 12:24 PM
they will not make it different. as teabag said they make the same movie just bigger. it will still have these characters at the core they may just add a few more. just like they did in transformers. they will not pull a jar jar and make marlon wayans appear in one or two scenes. wont happen. will be more of the same.

ror@ that movie was awesome, had don johnson and burgess merideth. but its really not indicative of the cartoon. the weekly series had none of that stuff. it was like the transformers movie, they needed to add more characters to expand the toyline.
superdog - 8/10/2009, 12:24 PM
VERSION4 @ Hell yeah!!!

OZY @ That's a good idea ZACH would make a killer JOE movie!
LEEE777 - 8/10/2009, 12:25 PM
I say they kill Duke and Ripcord off at the beginning of the film.
Ozymandias - 8/10/2009, 12:28 PM
No,, ya do hav'ta kill 'em, put them on a special mission somewhere!!! Will just a couple of appearances! ; D

To be honest though, i didn't mind ol RIPCORD, but less of him would be good, though with much more JOES that will happen anyway.
LEEE777 - 8/10/2009, 12:29 PM
@LEEE777:They could be on a mission and not return and they would be M.I.A.(heh heh)
Ozymandias - 8/10/2009, 12:31 PM
SPOTS I COULD SEE TO BE IMPROVED UPON..SNAKE EYES SUIT..VERY COOL,BUT COULD DO WITHOUT THE MOUTH,PLUS THE SCULPTED MUSCULATURE WAS NICE BUT I COULD TELL IT WAS RESTRICTING TO RAY PARKS SLICK MOVES, I SUGGEST MORE NEOPRENE..MARLON WAYANS WAS OK BUT I CANT TAKE HIM SERIOUSLY AS A JOE, I KEEP REMEMBERING HIS OER THE TOP GOOFYNESS ROLES-ITS LIKE YOU EXPECT IT FROM HIM..MORE RECOGNIZABLE JOES-WILD BILL(SAM ELLIOT)LADY JAY(MILLA JOVAVICH)GUNG HO(STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN),THE VEHICLES WE KNOW BY HEART-HISS TANKS-ALL THE SPECIAL VEHICLES-HARKEN TO THE 80'S CARTOON BUT UPDATE IT..
GUNSMITH - 8/10/2009, 12:32 PM
HONESTLLY, GI JOE HAS A TON OF MEMBERS..CAMEOS ARE COOL AND THE ROTATION WOULD KEEP VARIETY, TATUM YOU CAN KEEP,ITS DUKE,RIPCHORD...IM WITH THE MAJORITY..CAMEO FOR HIM, BRING IN SOME FRESH MEAT..IF YOU PUT IN SGT SLAUGHTER...I DUNNO..ERRR
GUNSMITH - 8/10/2009, 12:35 PM
GUN @ Im sure they will man! ; )

OZY @ LOL!

And i wanna see GENERAL HAWK in TRANSFORMERS 3!!!

But seriously, anyone know if that was a rumor, BS, or TRUE???? Maybe its a deleted scene??? Anyone know???

Anyone?
LEEE777 - 8/10/2009, 12:38 PM
LEE THE ONLY THINGS I WANNA SEE IN TRANSFORMERS 3 IS UNICRON THE DINOBOTS, EPIC SPACE BATTLE, LIKE ARMAGEDON MEETS STAR WARS, EXCEPT WITH A CRAP LOAD OF ROBOTS.AND RECOGNIZABLE ONES WE CAN INVEST IN INSTEAD OF NAMELESS ROBOTS JUST THROWN IN BECAUSE OOH TRANSFORMERS MEANS ROBOTS LETS SHOVE ROBOTS EVERYWHERE BUT FORGET ABOUT THE ONES PEOPLE ARE HOPING TO SEE....
GUNSMITH - 8/10/2009, 12:44 PM
TOO EARLY TO SEE, BUT ...SERPENTOR?
GUNSMITH - 8/10/2009, 12:47 PM
BRENT? WHERES BRENT MAN..BRENT MAKE A POLL ON WHAT PEOPLE WANNA SEE IN THE 2ND GI JOE FILM..
GUNSMITH - 8/10/2009, 12:48 PM
I'm really sick of EVERYONE casting sam worthington or having zack snyder direct. Get over it people!
divo - 8/10/2009, 12:54 PM
Make sure one of the options is "Blank Screen"
Rorschach01 - 8/10/2009, 12:55 PM
first worthington for cap, now duke ? what the hell is going on ?? a bit too much sam on CBM folks mind ?
realblood33 - 8/10/2009, 12:58 PM
@ Divo, amen to that! Someone wanted Sam Worthington to play Roland in the Dark Tower movie! Can you see him as an aging cowboy? Oh hell no!
WulfComicFan - 8/10/2009, 1:04 PM
Hey, Lee... i tell you what... how about have Duke and Ripcord taken captive by Cobra under orders from CC. have them being tortured in an undisclosed location. Flint and the others have to find them and rescue them at all cost. That way, you can integrate Zartan, the Dreadnocks, and even a young Lt. Falcon (Chris Evans, maybe?).
version4 - 8/10/2009, 1:08 PM
Chris Evans or Chris Pine should've been Duke. Wayans was much better then I thought he was going to be. I thoroughly enjoyed the movie and can't wait to see which Joes they add into the next film. I'm hoping for Shipwreck
Juicerules - 8/10/2009, 1:11 PM
mark wahlberg was the right guy for duke...now i guess we may have mike bay making gi joe??...aahhh that wud suck ballz...

i think mcG is the guy for gi joe
Anil Rickly - 8/10/2009, 1:17 PM
VERSION4 @ Now that is a good idea man! ; )
LEEE777 - 8/10/2009, 1:25 PM
Spoiler alert: If anyone hasn't seen the movie, than don't read my post......

I didn't like that Ripcord was all into Scarlett. That's Snake Eyes woman! I kept waiting for Snake Eyes to beat him down.....is Storm Shadow dead???? What the hell! How can he come back from that? If they don't bring him back they are making a big mistake because he and Snake Eyes are the movie! I also wished that Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes story was told like it was in the comic book.....I didn't like that Storm Shadow was a jealous little boy and not the misguided "brother" that he should be! UGH!

It was really hard for me to take Channing Tatum and Marlon Wayans seriously. Tatum seriously is a horrible actor. His accent or whatever you want to call it made him sound like he was trying to be the white guy that's trying to be black. That's not Duke.

I'm glad that they are going to keep the movie going. I just hope they make the proper changes. Oh, also CC's mask sucked! He should look more like the original Hasbro toy!
SKAPEGOAT - 8/10/2009, 1:31 PM
sommers leaving could only help this movie, but he wasn't the biggest problem with this movie. it was just horrible, to me, in every aspect. this definately needs a reboot in the ass

version4 - 8/10/2009, 1:52 PM
lee777@ why would they make those two the main focus of the 1st film, lock them in for the sequels, and then send them away for 90% of the next film and start with all new joes? how does that in any way make sense to you? and if you do want them to do that than how can you say this movie was good if you are willing to get rid of the the two MAIN characters who were the focus of the movie? if they were that bad they need to be sent away then the movie should have sucked for you. really dude, i luv ya but sometimes you make no frigen sense :)
superdog - 8/10/2009, 1:54 PM
This is my very first post and would like to say hello to everyone, because although I am a new member "comment wise," I've been reading information on this site for what seems maybe two years or so. Well, hello everyone. I notice the same names day in and day out so I'm happy to be a part of this site.

As for this film receiving the green-light for a sequel, it's solely due to the nature of many perceiving a box office flop during the initial production and furthermore once images and casting were released of the film months later. With a budget of $175 and another $150 million spent on marketing, the film performed much better than expected. $100 million worldwide the first weekend for a film many destined to bomb the first week is an accomplishment really.

Whispers68 - 8/10/2009, 2:08 PM
whisper@ hello my friend. welcome :)

that is not alot of money though. the proposal will make more than this when all is said and done. and it will only go down from there.
superdog - 8/10/2009, 2:23 PM
@superdog, thanks for the welcome.

Very much so...I definitely agree it isn't a lot, especially with the fact that Saturday as well as Sunday's figures were lower than that of Friday. In other words, the trend where your sat/sun figures are lower than friday by a large amount usually results in the film not earning a lot during its run. They're hoping this time around it won't, so only time will tell how much of a drop off the box office will be
Whispers68 - 8/10/2009, 2:38 PM
This film sure does get ALOT of HATE, but I tell you what......if I was 12yrs old, I would've thought this was the coolest f*ckin movie!

I really liked the character dev, plot was somewhat plausible, and I didn't see the reason you guys all had a problem with Tatum's and Wayne's performances..???...??? The one thing that was somewhat annoying was the seemingly rushed CGI, but it's starting to seem like a trend with films lately.

I dunno, i just don't get the hate....

Oh yea, and if I was 12, I'm 100% sure that I would've been dressing up as Snake Eyes for Halloween!!! He was cool as sh!t in the movie, especially when he was the only one to think of taking out one of the missiles right away! That was tight!!!
Talontd - 8/10/2009, 2:44 PM

I work at a movie theater and for the midnight showing of G.I Joe we had 12 people and iam talking about Showplace 12 in Springfield Illinois, thats just sad and what ive seen of it this movie blows, so it doesnt deserve a sequel, i will wait and record it on my DVR not waste 9.00 bucks on that

shake n' bake
TheShakeBake - 8/10/2009, 3:07 PM
VERSION-YEAHHH YOU KNOW!
GUNSMITH - 8/10/2009, 3:10 PM
If I look at the film from the perspective of a long time fan I am very dissapointed as years of the comic book and the cartoon went by with no clue to what cobra comander looks like under his mask and in the first twenty minutes of the first movie you see his face and to make matters worse hes the kid from third rock from the sun. The baroness is American and duke's former fiance, WHAT? She is only evil because her brother, Cobra Comander, has put a mind control chip in her head. WHAT? Snake eyes met Storm shadow while he was a kid stealing food out of the dojo and they weren't budies back in nam and Snake eyes dosen't wear the mask and not talk because he took a explosion in the face, insted they don't say about the mask and the mute thing is a vow of silence for his master's murder and his master wasn't killed by Zartan and I could go on. Its like the writers and the director had never bothered to watch a single episode of the cartoon or read an issue of the comic so from the view of a fan from way back I just want to take Sommers film degree off the wall and beat him about the head with it

However, from the perspective of a regular movie goer I have to say that it was a fun action filled movie that I realy enjoyed so If you can seperate this film from what came before you might just make it through without feeling the need to kill Sommers in the most painfull way you can think of and actually have a good time.

-----JOE BROS!----(GI JOE MOVIE SYMATHIZERS UNITE!)
GUNSMITH - 8/10/2009, 3:11 PM
i am sorry, this is my first time posting , but i couldn't sit and read this crap any more. first i am a comic, transformer, and g.i. joe fan, like most of you i grew up with these toys and watched the cartoons every day. i saw g.i. joe the other day and i was very pleased with it as i have been with pretty much all the hero movies so far. i watched the old animated movie also and the new one is nowhere near as bad or over the top as that old thing (even though i like it too). i just want to know what the hell do you couch directors want these movies to be. if they made them very realistic they would be dumber than they are supposed to be. they are comics for cryin out loud, if you made gi joe more real it would be just another war movie and you would be pissed if they made it word for word with the comics it would be too cheesey for you and you would be pissed. and they would lose money on the film in the process. because they are trying to introduce charachtors to people that have no idea about them at all. so please just one of ya tell me what you expect out of a comic movie.
snakeeyes316 - 8/10/2009, 3:27 PM
Why would you settle for a piss poor movie of GI-JOE?

Did you not see The Incredible Hulk? Iron Man? SpiderMan2, 300, Batman Begins and TDK or Transformers 1?

I believe that in order for our comic and cartoon movie heroes to come to life the writers directors and actors must make them believable in real life and turn them into BAD Asses not real life parodies of the cartoon heroes which makes it look ridiculos.

By the way Stephen Sommers did what he always does on a big budget blockbuster film.........turns it into huge steaming pile of Hollywood Dogshit!!


Hellmont - 8/10/2009, 3:42 PM
no sommers!!!! and no sinking icebergs!!!!

they already fuked the story. so they cannot do cobra law. maybe serpentor at best. and storm shadow better be dead. there is no coming back from that icy death.

STORM SHADOW @ Ain't dead! ; D
LEEE777 - 8/10/2009, 4:14 PM
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Seriously, this article wasnt much of a surprise. In other news, the sun rises and sets, pigs do NOT fly and Supermike is an asshole.

Anybody else got some good news on Iron Man 2 or Sherlock Holmes because I just realised there is no other movies to look forward to between now and Xmas. Don't get me wrong, other movies look good but they dont get me as excited
dancingmonkey08 - 8/10/2009, 4:16 PM
Storm shadow equals dead ninja of the summer
superdog - 8/10/2009, 4:23 PM
Hollywood version of an existing property? Let's change things around to make it acceptable for the masses! This is getting to be a tiring and predictably cliched cycle!

1)Why couldn't Marlon Wayans play Stalker? Noooo, let's play the race - changing for no apparent reason game!
2)Tatum Channing looks nothing like Duke!
3)And couldn't we have Roadblock as opposed to Heavy Duty?
4)Snake Eyes already revealed as a ninja? C'mon!

The problem is this: the people making these films are not equivalent to the people who want these films made! There obviously needs to be a fan acting as a liason/watchdog involved with some editorial authority here! Otherwise we get these inaccurate portrayals that give anxious audiences an experience that produces mixed reactions and leaves you feeling ultimatelty unsatisfied! How many times must we go through this?!
JonF - 8/10/2009, 4:38 PM
Call me weird, but I'm not looking for Sherlock Holmes. The trailers just don't do it for me

As for what “snakeeyes316” mentioned about making a movie too realistic, I don't fault you for saying we are simply viewers and novices compared to an actual director, but what I can't agree on is that as viewers we can't voice our opinions and consider them to be valid. We paid for the ticket so we should be able to say, "you know what, Tatum didn't fit that role well...he's good in certain areas as an actor but I think (fill in the space) would've been a better choice."

I don't think people are whining or complaining about the film, they're merely voicing their opinions and honestly even if they didn't take the "Black Hawk Down" realistic approach, the film should've been fine tuned in several areas before release. We can't be force fed something and just merely take it by saying, "that movie was hot," when it actuality the film was mediocre or plain crappy. If someone wishes to capture a new audience, why should they piss off the old in the process? Can't there be a compromise?

No prob, the site's not usually this negative (unless Supermike is involved) but, you know, when there's blood in the water, the sharks come out...

damn, i like Sommers' films, he's really a good director, idk whats everyone's problem with him, but keep Wayans and Tatum, they're good together, the cast shouldn't change at all, just bring in more characters

Tyrese and Worthington? Tyrese is stuck with Transformers and why does Sam Worthington have to play every superhero?

Rorschach01 - 8/10/2009, 8:09 PM
I really liked the movie. Thought the acting was just fine. Tatum and Wayans were great for their roles I'm glad it had some humor in it made for a great movie. Thought the story line was great too and can't wait for number 2. No to reboot that's retarded bring on the sequel.
Kratos6 - 8/10/2009, 8:22 PM
Dudes are all pissed cause they didn't make the movie like the cartoon or the comic book. It's called interpretation that's what happened and their were still some likeness to the old Joe but they took what are called liberties and added some in. Get the crap over it. It was still a good movie.
Kratos6 - 8/10/2009, 8:28 PM

What I always remembered about GI Joe the cartoon was the action. I saw the movie yesterday and honestly it was way over top even for a popcorn movie. I just kept saying WTF?? is this.

Ror @ the cartoon GI JOE Movie was awesome and I wouldn't mind seeing that on the big screen on IMAX or 3D.

Proto @ We need a director who can direct action and explosions.

Like Lee777 I thought that GI Joe was alot better than i thught it would be. I went to this movie expecting nothing and being aware that it was NOT going to be the GI Joe I watched as a kid.

The action scenes were great. The humor was not nearly as lame as I thought it would be (like in transformers 2).
Phileo26 - 8/11/2009, 3:55 PM
Storm Shadow isn't for one thing. If anyone ever read the comic they killed him off & brought him back. He'll be back. They shoulda let Sienna use her accent, that woulda been HOT! She looks better as brunette. It was entertaining but coulda been much better!
