After pushing the film’s release in order to add more Channing Tatum, the marketing team behind G.I. Joe: Retaliation is back with proof of more Channing Tatum. Unfortunately, they used footage that has him assing out while trying to act street. Fortunately, the Rock is there to confiscate his Hood Pass.

Other than the comedy stylings of Mark Wahlberg Lite, this trailer gives us a great look at the state of the art weapon Cobra is using to destroy entire countries with. Then by the end we’re given a great look at the state of the art weapon being destroyed. So, yeah, I guess the good guys win. Stay tuned to future trailers to find out about any other major deaths or plot points.

G.I. Joe: Retaliation looks like a much different movie than its predecessor. Where the original shot for the moon with goofy, over the top action, the sequel grounds itself with a grittier, The Rock blows things up style. Don’t get me wrong. There’s still tons of action and enough shots of ninjas dueling while rock climbing and Cobra literally taking over America that the source material is still winked at.

But gone are the throwaway characters and annoying Marlon Wayans comic relief. Unless, of course, they’re doing their best to keep tired jokes out of the trailer. One does creep in at the end in the form of a surprise cameo that sort of brings the rest of the trailer down. It’s just sad for a few reasons. This is the trailer for G.I. Joe: Retaliation, not the final act of Terms of Endearment. It shouldn’t leave me feeling cold inside.
