GI Joe movie sequel delayed until next year

Just a month or so before it was initially scheduled for release, the sequel has now been delayed until March 2013, which is hardly a time of year for a big blockbuster action movie, and according to the studio, it's:
...in order to adapt the movie for 3-D screens
Really? All that suggests is that it's worse than the promos are telling, because if they really wanted to format the film for 3-D, something I don't find particularly appealing, they could've done it already. Now, all they've done is signal that even if it's not as bad as the first movie, it could still be a botch job. Clearly, they've never had much respect for the franchise to begin with.

Labels: ,

Transparent lie. They're terrified of market saturation. With Avengers, Spider-Man, Dark Knight, an Aliens prequel, etc. all on the docket, who was really itching to see the Real UN-Approved Hero (even if it does look much, much better than the original)?

Not to mention that The Hunger Games (their justification for moving it) wasn't 3-D.

There are times when simply taking the action and following it with a "no comment" is better PR than obviously false spin.

  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
