First “G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra” Poster
Film1.nl took a picture at the Cinema EXPO in Amsterdam today of a poster for the new G.I. Joe movie. The poster, featuring Channing Tatum as Duke, reveals that the full title for the movie is G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra.
Hasbro has bought the domain name GIJoeRiseofCobra.com, so it is a pretty good indication that it will be the title.
The story revolves around a European-based military unit known as Global Integrated Joint Operating Entity (G.I.J.O.E.), which is a hi-tech, international force of special operatives that takes on an evil organization led by a notorious arms dealer.
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 has started shooting in February, and is currently scheduled to hit theaters on August 7th, 2009.

7 Hurt in G.I. Joe Crash in Prague
Seven people injured on the set of “G.I. Joe” on Saturday. A collision between a bus and several cars occurred in the center of Prague, police and emergency services said.
Video seen on the private Nova television channel showed the bus, and then other vehicles, being hit by an all-wheel-drive vehicle that appeared to have braking problems.
“It happened in a closed area that was rented out to the filmmakers for the weekend,” said Prague police spokeswoman Eva Brozova.
Jirina Ernestova, spokeswoman for the emergency services, said the injured were treated in hospitals in the Czech capital.
“According to my information, there were only slight injuries,” said David Minowski from the local production house Stilling Films.
Directed by Stephen Sommers, “G.I.Joe” — starring Channing Tatum, Dennis Quaid and Sienna Miller — is a live-action feature based on the eponymous action figure that is due out in August 2009.

‘Smart People’ Movie Clips
Take first glance at Miramax Films’ latest film Smart People, In theaters on April 11, 2008, this film features an all-star cast of Dennis Quaid, Sarah Jessica Parker, Thomas Haden Church, and Ellen Page. Smart People also recently premiered at The Sundance Film Festival this past Sunday.
Professor Lawrence Wetherhold (Dennis Quaid) is imperiously brilliant, monumentally self-possessed and an intellectual giant - but when it comes to solving the problems of love and family, he’s as downright flummoxed as the next guy. His teenaged daughter (Ellen Page) is an acid-tongued overachiever who follows all too closely in dad’s misery-loving footsteps, and his adopted, preposterously ne’er-do-well brother (Thomas Haden Church) has perfected the art of freeloading.
