With Christmas on the horizon, we here at MTV.com.au love nothing more than interspersing our trips to the beach with settling down to watch a big, brash blockbuster. Good news then, that SFX-riddled, action-packed ‘G.I.Joe: Rise Of The Cobra’ is set to hit shops on DVD and Blu-ray on December 3.

It has it all: swashbuckling goodies, leather-clad baddies, hot blokes, girl-on-girl fights, the Eiffel Tower collapsing - now all we need is a mince pie…

Check out what mega hottie, Channing Tatum, who plays hero Duke, had to say about the movie.

How was it playing the awesome Duke?
CT:
He’s the ultimate soldier! I grew up with his action figure. I ran around playing him and playing Snake Eyes.

Baroness is played by Brit hottie Sienna Miller. What was she like to work with?
CT:
Sienna is a sweetheart. She is also hilarious.

Give us an example?
CT:
She is great at mimicking voices. She can do anyone.

Can she do an impression of your good self?
CT:
Yes! She is spot on. If you ever get the chance ask her to do it (laughs).

Is it true the day they shot the Baroness and Scarlett (Rachel Nichols) fight scene, all of the blokes on set showed up to watch?
CT:
Yes. We were all lining up. Everyone showed up on set that day.

Tsk. Why do blokes find bad girls hot?
CT:
I don't know. Every guy secretly dreams of being thrown around a little bit. I get beat down in this. I didn't get one hit in.

We hear you became best buds with Marlon Wayans who plays Ripcord?
CT:
Sure that's true. He's a great guy and one of the funniest I've ever met.

Did he crack you up?
CT:
There was many a time we were all laughing. There's one scene in the film where I have to pick him up and carry him so Marlon would say: 'I'm going to eat so much food today' and he did. He put heavy objects in his pockets. He did anything he could to make it as difficult as possible to pick him up.

Ah, you boys!
