I'm guessing that Colton was making a Beverly Hills 90210 reference. Shannon Dougherty's character name was Brenda. Still a weird stretch, as Colton is too old to be 1990's teen soap fan.
The big ninja battle was well done and the woman that played lady Jaye was beautiful.

"Brenda" is a slang term for a beautiful and really smart brunette. It was more commonly used a long time ago and not so much now. Her surname is also Burnette. so there is that pun as well and since he knew her father he may have called him that too. It's one of those jokes that if you don't get it you would just assume, like Lady Jaye did, think he was being a jerk to her. But really he wasn't. It had nothing to do with Shannon Dougherty and 90210. lol.
Watched it again last week from the beginning and still can't warm up to Tatum's performance. He doesn't look like a leader to me. Still a fun movie for the most part, though.

Just watched this movie again. While it wasn't great it was much better than ROC. Cobra Commander was given a proper treatment.
Firefly, Roadblock, SS, and Zartan were well done. Hell all the characters were more believable IMO. The script wasn't great, but better than ROC. I thought Jon Chu was a much better director than the first guy. I know there is a lot of hate on channing tatum, He should not have been cast as duke but, that is not his fault. The worst part of this movie to me was the blind master. Are you F*cking kidding me. Get these rappers and BB players out of movies. You don't see Bruce Willis or the zartan vosloo guy rapping. Totally a brutal brutal performance. All in all not a great movie, but they should make a third. And it would be easy to bring zartan back, for the guy that said he was dead. He is full of nanomites, so they could easily repair him. kind of like the way he was an adult while SS was a kid, and now they are both the same age. It would be much harder to bring firefly back than zartan. |

Quick Kick - ultimately - serves as an archetype - and when Joe vs. Cobra was relaunched in 2002, Nunchuck was the successor of Quick Kick. In the case of Michael Dudikoff, it was in homage to Avenging Force. A sequel to Invasion USA, Avenging Force had the hero tangle with a supremacist/subversive front known as Pentangle. In Retaliation, Joe Colton and "his men" - the Adventure Team of sorts - were militia men/minute men who didn't trust the government. They weren't the radical Christian Identity type; but they were a militia.

I just watched Retaliation for the first time since I saw it in theaters. The flaws are still clear but it's still more enjoyable than Rise of Cobra. I'm more than okay with Channing Tatum dying. Did anyone think it was odd Cobra Commander just disappeared at the end? He should get away but I guess I was just hoping for some sort of last angry appearance or something. Just a few thoughts.

Retaliation...
so much good here but still could use improvement or a new direction. Perhaps a different writer more suited to GIJOE was in order. Reese was more suited for Deadpool and Zombieland
