Which one will you purchase? I for one will only get the Blu-Ray!!

The Summer of 2009 is already shaping up to be another good movie season. Next year we have two 80′s cartoons and former Marvel comic characters coming to the big screen. G.I. Joe will be arriving to show us how the special forces team copes with international terrorist organization, Cobra.  Meanwhile, Optimus Prime and his Autobots will be back to protect Earth from Megatron and the Decepticons.

In G.I.Joe we get a subtitle of “Rise of COBRA”

In Transformers we get a subtitle of “Revenge of the Fallen.”

One will rise and the other will get revenge.  Either way it will be a  clash of the 80′s titans that the audience will get to enjoy.

Now you know and knowing is half the battle.
