Hah, I forgot all about these from my future film headline gathering stint. :) Thanks for shipping 'em in. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 23:41, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

I'm also linking this: LatinoReview reviewed two drafts by Elliot/Lovett (which they loved) and Woods (who drove them up the wall). It'll give us some insight into how things changed during scripting. Alientraveller (talk) 18:18, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Script review of the (shooting?) script by /Film. It'll be useful in future, as it draws a connection between the comics and the film. Alientraveller (talk) 12:24, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Cast members

If other cast members need to be added, they need to be cited by reliable sources outside of movie websites' scoop reporting. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 22:04, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

I'd really hate to use a video link to prove this but Brenden fraiser said he would like to "think" his character is a decendant of Rick O'Connell (he didnt say that he actually is). I will provide the video link to prove my point http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPhKdvcEiYg —Preceding unsigned comment added by Magnus prime (talk • contribs) 05:16, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

well i'm just gonna go ahead and add that little detail since the proof is right in the link (Magnus prime (talk) 02:54, 5 August 2009 (UTC))

Was Fraser playing a character named "stone"? I distinctly remember hearing him mentioned as "Slaughter" during the movie. I could have mis-heard but I'm fairly certain it wasn't stone. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.193.255.184 (talk) 04:05, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Common was/is in talks to play Roadblock?

So says an MTV.com interview. 63.64.127.45 (talk) 20:16, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

You must be referring to this: "On the movie side, Common said he was being offered the part of Road Block in the G.I. Joe movie, but nothing has been solidified yet." This was Feb 22, 2008, so I don't know if there is any news about this afterward. Perhaps it can be mentioned as part of the paragraph at the bottom of the Cast section. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 20:24, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

It's already in: "Common was offered the role of Heavy Duty's cousin Roadblock,[19] although Bonaventura previously indicated Heavy Duty was being used in that character's stead.[11]" Alientraveller (talk) 07:53, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Sigh, strike two for me, eh? :) As always, on the top of your game. That should satisfy the IP. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 11:59, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
