G.I. JOE: RETALIATION Explodes onto Blu-ray – Officially This July!
I was so against this movie when I heard there was not going to be any sign of the Baroness or Scarlett. They were the best parts of the first film, right? Well reluctantly I dragged my sorry butt to the theater months ago on a rainy Sunday afternoon and well…I actually really liked what I saw. As the title implies, G.I. JOE: RETALIATION exploded on the big screen with a loud bang and enough force to leave me wanting more…ahem…a sequel! And I’m getting it too! And best of all, Paramount has officially announced a July 30th release date for this bad boy and I couldn’t be happier! Pre-order your copy now and make sure to read the full press release below. Yo Joe!
HOLLYWOOD, Calif. (June 4, 2013) – Called “a stunning, high-flying, super-charged blast of fun” (Shawn Edwards, FOX-TV), the $355+ million worldwide blockbuster G.I. JOE: RETALIATION explodes onto Blu-ray, Blu-ray 3D, DVD and On Demand July 30, 2013 from Paramount Home Media Distribution. Based on Hasbro’s popular G.I. JOE brand, the film will be available on Digital two weeks early on July 16th. “Born to play a G.I. JOE” (Scott Bowles, USA Today), Dwayne Johnson embodies ROADBLOCK and he and Channing Tatum “are a match made in action flick heaven” (James Oster, JoBlo.com) in this “cool ride” (Richard Corliss, Time) that is “awesome times 10!” (Shawn Edwards, FOX-TV). From Paramount Pictures and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures, G.I. JOE: RETALIATION also stars action legend Bruce Willis as the original G.I. JOE, as well as Adrianne Palicki, D.J. Cotrona and Jonathan Pryce. In director Jon M. Chu’s heart-pounding thrill ride, the G.I. JOE team not only faces off against its mortal enemy COBRA, it is also forced to contend with threats from within the government that jeopardize its very existence.
