Jon M. Chu Talks About The Mistakes Made During G. I. Joe: Retaliation

Posted on August 20, 2018 at 12:33 am by Silver Optimus under Uncategorized

It’s been a while since we heard something from the G. I. Joe Live Action Movie front. But this time, it’s not about what’s in the future.

Speaking to Uproxx, Director Jon M. Chu talked briefly about several mistakes made during his stay for G. I. Joe: Retaliation. Unlike Christopher Eccleston; who utterly despise his role on the franchise, Mr. Chu is proud and happy to be a part of it. In fact, he wishes that Retaliation could have been better.

Okay, so what specifically did you learn during G.I. Joe: Retaliation that helped you make Crazy Rich Asians?

Well, we had so many characters! I had to serve so many characters from the last movie. It was like, “this is a reboot but it’s also a sequel.” And I’m like what does that freaking mean? We want to redo this whole tone, but yet you’re giving me 18 characters I have to serve. And then we are bouncing around the world and I have to keep up with them. And we were in it and it was so hard to focus on somebody’s journey that we could root for. I mean, I love the movie, I just learned a lot about juggling multiple storylines in there and how to put your foot down when it becomes too much. So, you learn those lessons by the mistakes you make and you have to get better.

Jon M. Chu’s latest movie Crazy Rich Asians is out now with largely positive reviews. We wish the director the best.

Sakura Elven Assassin, Cerisier Photo Shoot

Posted on October 21, 2017 at 4:04 pm by DESTRO under Uncategorized

It’s been a while since we have done a photo shoot for the Tank and I’m glad we have an update for you. We recently received our brand spanking new Sakura Elven Assassin, Cerisier from Boss Fight Studio. This figure is off the charts awesome for any fantasy games fan of any kind or fantasy art lover. Lets not even get started with the connection to MTG and D&D. If your into Boss Fight Studio action figures this is one I would not pass on.

Order you here Sakura Elven Assassin, Cerisier from Boss Fight Studio.

“Guardians of the elven queen, members of this elite corps of archers bathe daily in dark ink, to maintain the gray color of their skin. Taking their orders directly from Queen Solan, they are her protectors and personal assassins. As a part of their duties to the queen, they take on an oath of silence. Their voices are removed permanently and irreversibly, using a magical spell. Their eyes have been altered so that they can see in pitch blackness. Moving undetectably and noiselessly, their natural home is in the dark. The last thing many an enemy of the Elves has felt is the cold blade of a Sakura Elf, silently draining their life away.”

IDW Reveals First Strike Tie-Ins And New Ongoing Hasbro Series

Posted on June 7, 2017 at 5:23 pm by C.I.A.D. under Uncategorized

Mr. Albert Ching from Comic Book Resources has shared a great piece chock full of info detailing the tie-ins we can expect to see stemming from First Strike and also gives us details on new ongoing Hasbro series. Mr. Ching also caught up with IDW Editor-in-Chief David Hedgecock, for further insight on First Strike — which sees Cobra invading Cybertron after targeting the race for termination, and the Transformers, G.I. Joe and M.A.S.K. uniting to save that world and Earth — and how it’ll affect the Hasbro action publishing line as a whole. Check it out –

IDW Publishing’s next Hasbro crossover is looming, and it looks to have an even bigger impact on the line than fans might have initially guessed. First Strike, which brings together Transformers, G.I. Joe, M.A.S.K. and more, gets going next week with a #0 issue from co-writers Mairghread Scott & David A. Rodriguez and artist Max Dunbar, also the creative team of the main six-issue First Strike miniseries which kicks off with twice-monthly issues in August.

Along with the imminent debut comes the news that some of IDW’s current licensed Hasbro books will end in August — due to a “seasonal” model and in-story changes brought by the events of First Strike. August will bring the last issues of G.I. Joe (with #9), M.A.S.K. (#10), Micronauts: Wrath of Karza (#5) and Rom (#14).

But those characters, naturally, aren’t going away for good — September sees a G.I. Joe: First Strike by Aubrey Sitterson and Ilias Kyriazis and a Micronauts: First Strike one-shot by Christos Gage and Chris Panda; October follows with a M.A.S.K.: First Strike one-shot from Sitterson and Kyriazis and Rom: First Strike from Christos Gage and Chris Panda. Additionally, a Optimus Prime: First Strike one-shot is scheduled for September from John Barber and Guido Guidi; Barber is joined by artist Guido Guidi in October for the Transformers: First Strike one-shot in October.

Then in November, a new series titled G.I. Joe: Unmasked (uniting G.I. Joe and M.A.S.K.) is set to debut in the wake of First Strike, and Rom & The Micronauts is slated for December. Transformers: Till All Are One will also end with July’s issue #12, as revealed recently by Mairghread Scott on her personal website, where she disclosed that she declined a First Strike follow-up for the series.

To get the scoop on what David Hedgecock had to share, make sure to check out the original article on CBR, then join us after the break for discussion already in progress!
