2nd GI JOE RETALIATION Trailer Drops! Now with 75% More Tatum!

I'm of two minds regarding his movie. Back when the first trailer showed up, I was really into it. It seems that they were going to be killing of the world's most charming potato, Channing Tatum, pretty early on in the film to make way for a new team. Right before the release, the studio delayed the movie by a year for an up-conversion to 3D, supposedly. This trailer shows off the real reason for the delay.

 Now, this new trailer show Tatum's Duke in an expanded role along with the Rock. I will say I'm a little disappointed that they weren't bold enough to kill off Duke. So while I'm still excited for this movie, I liked the idea of having a series of GI JOE movies that replace the team with each outing since they're really the most boring characters of the franchise compared the Cobra group. But see for yourself and tell me what you think! Check out the new trailer below thanks to Yahoo! Screen via Film School Rejects.
