I'll see if I can find more promotionals on "G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra" in Japan, especially the subway posters. Promotions have started for the film with newspapers have tickets for screenings for August 7th. Also, the Japanese website for the film:

Interesting. I've had the Japanese url as my sig for over a month.
Don't forget their neighbors in South Korea: http://www.gijoe.co.kr/ I bet they're gearing up for the movie just as much as when the Iron Man movie made an early international premiere run. Last edited by miragearmor; 07-21-2009 at 02:25 PM.. |

Yeah- my girlfriend Yuko says that there are advertisements all over her hometown of Fukuoka. She's getting me all kinds of free stuff that they give away on corners and in movies theaters. Bless her heart!

Watashi wa G.I. Joe no dai tsuki desu! I took Japanese for like 3 years in high school (had to repeat Japanese 101, lol); that's the best I could do. LOL. And as cool as the ROC trailers are starting to look I would much rather watch a G.I. Joe anime. LOL.

Rise of Cobra is the kind of film that's absolutely destined for success abroad. Huge special effects, which no place other than Hollywood can produce. And probably little dialogue (with a lot of one-liners) will make this movie easy to follow with subtitles.
I think it would be impossible for this film to fail to make a profit. Even if it tanks domestically, the foreign markets will eat it up.
