It hasn’t even arrived in town to start shooting yet, but Paramount’s mega-budget “G.I. Joe” sequel already appears to have a new release date and a new title.
Paramount Pictures officials said this week that “G.I. Joe: Retaliation“ – which had previously been referred to as “G.I. Joe 2: Cobra Strikes” and set for an Aug. 10, 2012, release date – will now land on July 29, 2012, snapping up the release date recently vacated by J.J. Abrams’ delayed “Star Trek” sequel, according to multiple online reports.
Starring Channing Tatum, Dwayne Johnson and Adrianne Palicki, “G.I. Joe 2″ is set to gear up Aug. 15 for a three-month-plus shoot in New Orleans. It arrives as the biggest-budgeted film to shoot in New Orleans at least since Warner Bros. brought “Green Lantern” to shoot here in summer 2010.
Jon M. Chu (“Step Up 3D,” “Justin Bieber: Never Say Never”) is directing.
I hope it doesn’t get pushed out though. Journey 2 was originally supposed to come out in Sept 2011 and now it’s Jan 2012. Fingers crossed that this one does make it early.

I get me and my guys, we’re gonna hunt them down, we’re gonna track them, we’re gonna bring their asses in, we’re gonna whip their asses. Not necessarily in that order.
Congratulations Lela you are our May 2012 DJ fan of the month!
This is why she is Dwayne Fan of The Month:
TALOFA LAVA! I watched Dwayne Johnson during the Attitude Era and I became a huge fan. One of my favorite matches is when he wrestles Mankind in an empty area for the WWF Champion belt. Even though he lost it was one of the funniest and creative matches ever. From being a wrestler to an actor his story inspires me because he is the result that with hard work anything is possible. He had many setbacks in his life but he strives and perseveres in achieving his goals. I am a huge fan because he stays true to himself and a very humble person. I love the fact that he represents his cultures and being Samoan he shows the respect, faith, and pride of our people. Overall, Dwayne is unstoppable and will inspire future generations to come. TEAM BRING IT! ALL DAY EVERYDAY!
