Here’s some behind the scenes trivia about the GI Joe movie franchise. Rise of Cobra was a movie that was rushed into production by Paramount because Hasbro had threatened to leave to Warner Bros if they didn’t have a movie green lit by a certain date.
The president of Paramount at the time was none other than Brad Weston the son of GI Joe creator Sam Weston. Brad Weston did not want to see his father’s creation end up with another studio so a deal was cut a few weeks before the writers strike in 2007. Brad Weston was fired from Paramount after a disastrous test screening of Rise of Cobra three months before the movie came out. |

Here’s another interesting thing going on right now…Hasbro is under siege from an activist investor who is demanding the firing of the the chairman of Hasbro’s board. The investor also wants Hasbro to sell off Dungeons & Dragons as well as Magic: The Gathering.
He’s also argued that Hasbro’s eOne studio makes terrible movies with ridiculous budgets and should be disbanded. |
