Sketchy on the plot... something about guys downloading their consciousness into mechs or something (hence the "avatar" title). |

I'm just going by the text, I have no idea - I can't get it to load all the way here at work. The info I've seen online about the "Avatar Day" this Friday seemed to indicate that we wouldn't see a trailer until then, though:

Celebrate "Avatar Day" This Friday
Worldwide audience gets first look of new sci-fi movie... Twentieth Century Fox announced today additional information about its global, history-making AVATAR DAY event when, on August 21, the world will get its first look at director James Cameron’s motion picture epic AVATAR. In this unprecedented experience, the studio and Cameron debut the film’s trailer everywhere, while select cinemas and IMAX theaters will screen select scenes in 3-D, prepared by the renowned filmmaker. The worldwide trailer launch will be presented in all formats, including IMAX 3-D, IMAX 2-D, digital 3-D, digital 2-D, and 35mm 2-D. The trailer will also be available online. The extended look at AVATAR will unspool for two showings only on the evening of August 21. The U.S. showings will be in select IMAX 3-D theaters, and international unveilings will be in select digital 3-D and IMAX 3-D theaters. Information on reserving tickets for these very limited showings will be available beginning August 17, 3:00pm EDT (noon PDT), at avatarmovie.com. In addition on the 21st, Fox will take the wraps off its special “3-D”/lenticular one-sheet posters for the film, Ubisoft will unveil the trailer for their videogame James Cameron’s Avatar: The Game, and Mattel will reveal the action figures for the film’s Avatar and alien Na’vi characters. AVATAR takes us to a spectacular new world beyond our imagination, where a reluctant hero embarks on a journey of redemption, discovery and unexpected love, as he leads a heroic battle to save a civilization. The film was first conceived by Cameron 14 years ago, when the means to realize his vision did not yet exist. Now, after four years of actual production work, AVATAR delivers a fully immersive cinematic experience of a new kind, where the revolutionary technology invented to make the film, disappears into the emotion of the characters and the sweep of the story. AVATAR opens in theaters everywhere December 18, 2009.

Troynos, now that you're a moderator, can you talk to someone about getting the HISSTank sidebar updated? The main page still shows the "current single cards" as waves 10 & 11 from the 25th line, and the current comic packs as wave 5. ;)

I wonder which threads Troynos is going to have to troll?
... I mean, patrol. Yeah, I meant "patrol". ;)

In G.I.Joe Order of Battle #2 Mercer,Red Dog and Taurus are part of Sgt. Slaughter`s Renagades. Whatever military training that Mercer has came from Cobra or Sgt. Slaughter. Red Dog was recruited by Sgt Slaughter while working on a movie as a stuntman. Taurus was a circus acrobat,who also did undercover work for Interpol. He was recruited by Sgt. Slaughter because he could break two by fours across his face.
In G.I.Joe Battle Files Barbeque joined the Army and was later noticed by G.I.Joe. Quick Kick was working on a war film as a stuntman,when he was approached by a retired Army Colonel. The Colonel told him that the Army had much to offer him due to all his talent. So Quick Kick enlisted and was later recruited onto the G.I.Joe Team. |

So BBQ and Quick Kick did come thru the military. Good to know.
I'm thinking Mercer had some kind of military training prior to Cobra as well.

Sorry to jump back a few pages on you guys, but I fell behind on the thread.

I haven't seen any pics of Doc yet, but it might be kind of cool that he's not in Arctic colors... It wouldn't restrict him to working only in Arctic environments. I suppose I'm looking for a replacement for the mail-in figure... I never ponied up the cash for that one. I just hope he doesn't look too cheesy.
Troynos congrats on making MOD!! |

Jinx is a second cousin to Storm Shadow. She is part of the Arashikage family. Sometime after she moved to America from Japan,she joined the Army,just not sure when. Later she joined the G.I.Joe Team due to Snake Eyes request.
