-Their main goal was to make GI Joe more realistic. Focus on toy-centric vehicles and weapons.
-Logan Lubera designed the Battle Kata weapons system used in the film and toy line.
-Each character has their own unique weapons. Cobra and Joes do not share weapon companies or types.
-Jinx mountain combat uniform is based on Bruce Lee in Enter the Dragon.
-Dwayne Johnson is a huge GI Joe fan, very proud of his role. They did audition Terry Crewes as well.
-Logan Lubera's favorite scene involved Rza in a dojo and he blocked a shot that was filmed for a potential scene.
-Joe also has a Rza story, talking about actor's intensity and focus on the set
-Bruce Willis was a scene stealer, and ad libbed a lot of his lines. Loved being involved in the film.
