The movie is out! No seriously, there have been some "Advanced screenings" in some theaters out there, which means some online Joe fans have been able to see the movie and give us, the huge, critical, online audience, their precious feedback. Suprisingly the reviews are sounding very good, and perhaps the new G.I. Joe movie will end up being better than the surpirisingly dissappointing Transformers 2: Rise of the Fallen (but that is only saying so much).

Adult Swim premiered the latest addition to the GI Joe: Rise of Cobra tv spots; this one much longer than the previous 30 second spots. This one also has a short clip from the now infamous fight between Scarlett and the Baroness, in which both Rachel Nichols and Sienna Miller both received minor injuries.
Josh Robert Thompson, the stand up commedian whose character "Fake Arnold" is trademarked, was cast as the voice of General Hawk in EA's soon-to-be-released G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra, the video game. As far as we know, none of the original cast members of Rise of Cobra, the movie have been cast to do voice work on the video game. Josh is the biggest name to be added to the voice talent.
About Josh: Thompson's Schwarzenegger impression first gained national attention during the California recall election of 2003. Posing as Schwarzenegger, Thompson phoned-in to Fox News Channel's morning program, "Fox and Friends," fooling the hosts into believing (at least for a short while) that he was, in fact, the real thing.
A little known fact that I have yet to see pop up on the internet anywhere else, so here it goes. G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra set a new record during filming, for the most car crashes on set. The previous record of 102 (The Blues Brothers) was "Smashed" when Paramount used 112 car crashes in the filming of Rise of Cobra. Apparently, this movie was destined to "crash", one way or another!

Another example of excellent, fun overseas marketing. The "Training Game" puts you (the player) in as the newest recruit to join GI Joe. You must prove yourself in hand-to-hand combat (pugil sticks), aquatic vehicle training (drive the submarine), and urban assault (shooting range). Once you've completed all levels, you can continue on and create your own I.D. badge and post it on your favorite social networking site.
