Certain films demand to be watched on Blu Ray and generally, they're not exactly high art. G.I. Joe: Retaliation is such a film. Sure, it's may not be a "thinking man's film" but it looks and sounds fantastic. Sure, it has a touch of the Michael Bay's about it but none of the douchebaggery that would ordinarily accompany such a film... apart from a handful of Transformers inspired sound effects. Duke (Channing Tatum) and Roadblock (Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson) lead a team of Joe's on a tactical strike in Pakistan. After securing a cache of nuclear warheads all hell breaks loose which turns this paint by numbers movie into an action packed revenge flick.

Like James Earl Jones and Peter Mayhew, Ray Park is one of those iconic actors that you didn't realise you love. Having played iconic characters such as X-Men's Toad, Snake Eyes from GI Joe: Retaliation and Darth Maul from Star Wars Episode 1, Ray Park is one of the most iconic character actors of this generation. The good news is, if you're planning on going to Supanova in Melbourne or the Gold Coast you could meet the man in person!  Full details and guest list after the jump.

I'm not entirely sure what PR people mean by the term sizzle but it makes me think of food and I like food! Regardless, we've just received these new clips for the upcoming GI Joe: Retaliation. Sure, the first film was so-so but from what we've seen so far, Retaliation looks like it's going to be a whole lot of fun. Stay tuned in coming weeks for Stu's review of the film and follow on after the jump for a fistful of new clips.
