The Cinema EXPO in Amsterdam, The Netherlands kicked-off today and a new poster for Paramount Pictures' "G.I. Joe" movie has already been spotted. The poster, featuring Channing Tatum as Duke, reveals that the full title for the movie is G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra. What we're not sure about is if this is only for international territories, but the fact that Hasbro has the domain name GIJoeRiseofCobra.com registered is a pretty good indication that it will be the title here as well.

The Stephen Sommers-directed film, co-starring Dennis Quaid, Sienna Miller, Ray Park, Rachel Nichols, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Said Taghmaoui, Marlon Wayans, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Arnold Vosloo and Christopher Eccleston, opens in theaters on August 7, 2009.

I am actually really looking forward for this. But I guess I should wait to see the trailer first...

I've seen the production stills and the script.

It's going to be cheesy as hell.

Think Street Fighter with VanDamme....same style

This movie is going to suck. Hard. They apparently feel that GI Joe needs to have a "USA vs terrorists in 2008" look and feel to it. Lets make everyone wear suits leftover from X3 too, so they all look the same. Can't wait to see what the do with Cobra Commander. Instead of the helmet or the hood, they'll have him in a turban.

Who wants to bet that the Captain America movie won't be true to it's origins and be set in WWII, but rather be against some "Arab" nationalists in a fictional middle eastern country?

I wouldn't bet on that. Marvel seems to know what they're doing most of the time, while.. well, G.I. Joe is on the fast track to nowhere. Bargain DVD bins across the nation.

I was under the impression they were making G.I. Joe more of like a World Force rather than a U.S. Force. I don't think there main base is even in the U.S. in this movie.

At least that is what I heard.
