Renegades Premiere Discussion Thread

[Gyre-Viper]

EDIT......... POLL ADDED

any chance a mod wants to start one?
as I'm sure it will be the mods
who develop permanent damage to their median nerves
whilst dealing with all the merging and infracting this afternoon....

at least with an official thread... the mods will have somewhere to dump
er... merge... the threads into.

[SH0CKWAVE]

Renegades sucks.

[MAJOR BLOOD]

Renegades sucks.

And GI Joe is dead so it's all irrelevant.

[Black Llama]

So this means that my "The Official what I'm wearing during the Renegades premier' thread isn't going to happen?

Renegades sucks.

What really sucks is when people make statements based on ignorance. Renegades hasn't even aired yet and you've already given it the axe.

I think Renegades is crucial. If it does well, then the Joe brand will have continued success. If not, don't expect to see your vision of the Joe brand come to life.

[kennywr22]

Hey shockwave, get a life numbnuts. Its a discussion thread, not a make stupid statements about something you haven't seen.

i've seen Renegades and i was not impressed, so hence my opinion. is this not a discussion thread? am i not entitled to my axe just like you?

obviously some people are already creaming over this new toon, and with good reason. i love the GI Joe franchise just as much as you, if not more. when i saw Renegades, subjectively, i thought it sucked. hence my post. just i like think ROC sucked, and VvV, and DTC.

there is suckage in GI Joe - i hate to break it to you.

Renegades is an ambitious project and i wish it the best of luck.

[SH0CKWAVE]

it is pretty cold.

[JohnnyAngel77]

mods please close this thread.
Sucks man, would have liked to see a real discussion thread on this without all the lameness that comes along with the Tank. My boys and I are pumped for this today.

I'll never understand the need to bash something people "supposedly" care so little for. When I don't give a crap about something, I move on.

Interesting that it took you four replies to make one post that even resembles the "discussion" you are so ardently defending your right to have.

It seems you just like to come in to make trouble and antagonize. I'm sorry you feel you have an axe to grind.

Maybe it's time to move on?

How have you seen Renegades since it hasn't aired yet ?

i advise you to read Black Llama's post, which i am wearing in my signature.

that's trouble.

You've seen the whole series already or just the clips and artwork like everyone else? If the later, it's an ill-informed opinion and you loose your axing privileges.

You can say ROC, VvV and DTC sucked. I'll let you have that opinion since they've been out for a while. But to base an opinion on something before you truly see it at all is ignorance.

[SH0CKWAVE]

What he said,why start off a so called discussion with a statement that you know full well people will rise to?surely if you had thought it through you would have started with.....iv seen it and didnt like it because........rather than dive in with a blatant attempt to rile other people up......ps loved that weasly epic fail snitch to the mods you attempted....it speaks volumes about your personality..........

[jaimanstone]

Ah, pulling out the "sheep" analogy. That one's not tired.

So, those of us that are actually waiting to see the show to form our opinions are "sheep" while those that follow the, "It suks cause I seen da trailer and Im nadda sheep" logic aren't?

Makes a lot of sense.

[kennywr22]

Hey shockwave we are waiting for your detailed review since you've seen it. I'm curious what did you dislike/ like about. Come on and hook us up.

[the odinson]

mods please close this thread.

sorry, gyre, wasn't sure you if you were serious or not. hard to tell, but i guess folks are getting worked up over something. don't really see what the trouble is, but i am usually oblivious to the fights here until they get deleted or closed. typing discussions can be... different.

[jaimanstone]

all i said was Renegades sucks.

Black Llama obviously has something against me, along with quite a few of you, so his incendiary comment has its basis.

i think Renegades sucks. is that so hard to deal with?

ganging up on people who have differing opinions from the mass is getting old.

I don't have anything personally against you KC. I'm just trying to express my opinion that your comments have been incendiary of late.

I'm just saying maybe we should call it a truce.

Forget the past and just go our separate ways in peace.

[Gyre-Viper]

I was serious. I haven't seen the show yet. I like what I see. By the end of the day I could absolutely despise it.
Or I might love it. Dunno. I certainly understand why some people don't think they're gonna like it. I get where they're coming from.


I was hoping to like ROC. That didn't happen. I was kinda just hoping to have a place to discuss the show
once it has aired. That way actual aired show discussions aren't getting lost in 'clips' threads or 'race change' threads, etc.

[the odinson]

so when does it come on?

[TYPHUS]

Im not sure how im a sheep???because i think a new show should be given a chance?for the record,i have no problem with you shockwave,i just thought you went about this the wrong way.

[MAJOR BLOOD]

Problem is the thread was started before anyone has seen it so honestly opinions will come out. It would have been better to wait until it aired so it could be discussed about what was and wasn't liked.

[Gyre-Viper]

so when does it come on?



I think at 4pm-ish Central.

[JohnnyAngel77]

Renegades!

[JohnnyAngel77]

I think at 4pm-ish Central.
I think its 5 and 5:30pm cst, actually.

[the odinson]

I think at 4pm-ish Central.

thanks. that's gonna interfere w/ the auburn/alabama game, i'm afraid. i'll keep my eyes peeled for replays sometime this weekend.

[Gyre-Viper]

well that's why I put question marks in the title.
and my initial post was suggesting a mod start a thread.
I wasn't suggesting anyone discuss Renegades in here.

[jaimanstone]

I think at 4pm-ish Central.

I've already got it DVRd.

[JohnnyAngel77]

I think its 5 and 5:30pm cst, actually.
Or, maybe it is 4, I dunno. Its set to DVR though.

[Gyre-Viper]

I think its 5 and 5:30pm cst, actually.



hehehehh I'm so bad with times. that's why I made sure to record it.

[JohnnyAngel77]

hehehehh I'm so bad with times.
I know the feeling.

[MAJOR BLOOD]

well that's why I put question marks in the title.
I wasn't suggesting anyone discuss Renegades in here.

I know but it was inevitable that it got discussed since the thought was already there. I mean, you might as well have just started one instead of asking if there was one. They will go the same route one way or another, it's the nature of the site. There will be people that like and dislike it. After ROC I don't really bother with the discussions.

I don't have the HUB so I can't watch it so it's a moot point for me. I just want some cool toys, that's all.

[JohnnyAngel77]

I just want some cool toys, that's all.
Indeed. Regardless of how much the adults like it, I want some great toys from it.

[General Hawk]

5:00pm Eastern, 4:00pm Central.

Shockwave, the issue is, that the phrase "Renegades sucks" is not discussion.

If you don't like it, say why.

If you want Hasbro, The folks at Hubworld, etc... to listen to your opinion, then speak it intelligently. It's called constructive criticism.

I get so sick and tired of fans coming on message boards and posting "PHAIL" or "this sucks!" without giving a valid reason why or how it could be better. Kind of defeats the purpose of a "discussion".

Give the folks a reason to listen to you.

Justin

[General Hawk]

BTW, I'm excited for it. Unfortunately my Father in Law picked tonight it invite us to Thanksgiving dinner, and family's gotta come first, so the DVR is set, and I'll be watching it later tonight.

Can't WAIT.

I also can't wait for the hopefully educated discussion that comes after it. At least folks will have something concrete to base their hate on.

Justin

[TYPHUS]

Im in the same boat as you major,as far as i know there are no plans for a uk/european release,which is gutting...so im all about the figures now....AND I CANT WAIT!!!!!!!will be great if the cartoon kicks ass though, its long overdue!!!

[SH0CKWAVE]

i think Renegades sucks because the story lines are weak and predictable, the animation is choppy and generic, and the Real American Heroes i grew up with are no longer recognizable.

Renegades is to GI Joe what X-Men Evolution is to X-Men:

a watered-down version of the original.

IMO.

The problem is no one listens no matter what you say. And when we say why we don;t like it we get called all sorts of bad names, demonized and then the fights start. All ya gotta do is use the ignore button on people you do not wish to talk too or read about. That is until somone uses the loop hole and quotes those individuals you have ignored lol...

There is no such thing as "discussion" on this board outside of the threads like "what secrets are in the file cards" and the customs thread. If it has anything to do with O-rings, ROC, Adventure Team, Resolute and the new abomination of Renegades that has the entire community divided..expect the William Shat-ner to the fan...Hasbro has done such a good job with divide and conquer with us they must be really happy with themselves...

[Zefram]

Wow.... just, wow.

Renegades sucks.

And again... you know the storylines are weak and predictable... how?

I loved X-Men Evolution. Since you've apparently seen the entire series already and are comparing it to that, I'm good to go.

enjoy the show!

Oh and i look forward to seeing Renegades....Can understand why some people dont but im gonna try it.

[Echo7Solo]

first things first, is everybody enjoying their weekend? Still munching on leftovers? Had a good Thanksgiving yesterday? Has family in town and enjoying them being there? Spending time with their kids? I don't know about the rest of you but I am.

Having said that I think the member bashing, baiting, smart ass comments, bitching, crying, telling on people like little school kids then turning around doing the same thing and all other of the childish games can be put on hold until the weekend is over.

Having said that lets just try to enjoy the weekend.

They would need to have teh interwebz closed for the weekend to accomplihs this ya know...maybe they should close the internet on national holidays lol...that would be an interesting society experiment...what would we do without the internet for a day? a weekned? a month?

Better yet log us all out and shut down the board for the weekned in memorium :)

Would save us the bickering thats about to ensue after the cartoon airs today...

i'm inclined to think this will probably be the case. and that will not upset me at all. if decent toys come out of it, i'm glad they made it. if not, oh, well.

[Zefram]

Hub World is on now. Peter Cullen at Botcon and Frank Welker interviewed.

Holy crap, Cullen has groupies! Cute ones too! Woman just told him how much her deceased son loved him. Cullen almost breaks down. Intense.

3:30 will have a look at Prime and Renegades.

Kevin Michael Richardson now. How is it he actually looks like both Roadblock and Bulkhead!

Baroness sounds hot too. Just a hint of the Euro accent without overdoing it.

Dammit im missing it!!!!!!

[Zefram]

Shoutout, Clem!

[Gyre-Viper]

they just went into detail as to why the show looks the way it does.

To piss off the fans? Of course!

[Zefram]

And they explained the lazor gunz! Apparently M.A.R.S. is supplying the good guys as well!

Not a fan of CC's visual design at all though! It's definitely Dr Rex inspired. Like they took the movie Rex and classic and blended them together.

[Shimaneboy]

Very impressed with what they have said and shown so far!

[Clem]

Shoutout, Clem!


What ?

[D00MTR0N]

will this be up on youtube or maybe ondemand?i dont have the hub but would love to see this

[Zefram]

They interviewed Lady Jaye's VA. apparently she's going to be Duke's inside source with the Joes while they're on the run. I think they're setting it up so that Flint is the one chasing Duke. Interesting possibilities for conflict there.

[SH0CKWAVE]

for the sake of the franchise that i love, i truly hope this blows up like the Renegades creators are expecting it to.

of course no butcher ever says his meat stinks.

i really, really want to be wrong about this show.

[Zefram]

What ?

They mentioned you when they were going into the visual design of the series. Pretty glowing praise too. :D

[B and H Comics]

Man I am stoked !!! This looks AWESOME just alittle over an hour to go !!!!

[kneroh]

That was epic!!!

I am so excited now! Only 1 hour and 12 minutes left!

[General Hawk]

will this be up on youtube or maybe ondemand?i dont have the hub but would love to see this

I plan on covering it pretty heavily on GeneralsJoes. Not sure how much video I will use, but there will be some, to be sure.

Justin

[D00MTR0N]

this sucks i have the hub Ondemand but not on regular cable,bummer

[Shimaneboy]

It really looks like there's going to be some depth and real drama in this show. I really hope they deliver what the preview said they would! Can't wait for it now!

You won't be disappointed. He fluctuates. They only had one line, but he went from reasonably normal and human to Resolute level epic embodiment of evil as he gave the order to Baroness. If Adler keeps up that level of nuance, he's gonna seriously kill it.

you have a good point here. Having said that from what I've it can't be as bad as some things that have been on TV over the last few years. I blame MTV the start of this junk. If it wasn't for The Real World we our world would be a better place. MTV should have stuck to music videos and left the crap off. Now we are stuck with that crazy Heidi chick all over the place. I think that was one of the signs of the end of time.

[Zefram]

Off topic, but, holy crap! did they just kill [SPOILER] off on Prime?! Blum is sick as Starscream, can't even recognize him. Soundwave sucks though.

Looks like I am going to miss the premiere @ 2pm. I need to drop my brother off at the shuttle stop for his trip. I guess I'll check Renegades out later tonight.

I think that was one of the signs of the end of time.

i used to work for MTV as a Story Editor on The Hills. i know Heidi personally, along w Spencer. they are not bad in real life. it was all an act and continues to be so. i talk to Spencer now and then, along with Justin. they are my friends, believe it or not.

i agree that MTV should go back to videos, but truth be told, its never going to happen. no one tunes in to watch videos anymore. they catch em online. people only tune in to watch shows. we just have to accept that MTV is now a channel like any other.

just like i have to accept that GI Joe is not ARAH anymore.

you poor thing....... their 15 minutes ended a long time ago. I'm just saying..... it looks like anything to stay in the spotlight right now.

Back on topic GI Joe isn't ARAH anymore, your right. We are not between the ages of 6 and 12 anymore. Things change.

[Mermaniel]

I'd like to correct Sh0wave's post. Renegades doest suck yet, but it will suck IMO...LOL! Since when are all the joes asian? And duke 16 years old? This is gonna blow. I hate this type of art...I've seen enough with crap like Ben-X, Naturo and all that other Manga styled non-sense. If the kids like it, good for them and Hasbro cause that's why it was created, but by my standards, this will bite big time. I also dont like think the story is Gi Joe worthy. Since when is a Real American Hero supposed to be an outlaw or a Renegade? They shouldve kept tat idea for another line.

[Gyre-Viper]

SHHHHHHHHH Transformers Prime is on. *gets popcorn*



"...with a side of bite me." - Transformers Prime

not exactly kiddie dialogue. I'm digging certain aspects of TF Prime... I'm trying to overlook the film-related bits. i'm giving it a chance though.

[Zartanman]

Good lord you guys sure can bitch. Am I the only one glued to his seat right now eating all this up? I feel like I'm 12 again, life is good!

[Zefram]

Arcee - "Aw scrap!"

Hee! :D

[Gyre-Viper]

Arcee - "Aw scrap!"

Hee! :D


"The jokers who tried to bump us off last night." - Arcee


I'm definitely digging the dialogue.

[SH0CKWAVE]

i'm a little bummed TF Prime only has five bots. Bulkhead? seriously? bummer. i was hoping for some Jetfire, Rodimus, Wheeljack, Omega Supreme, etc.

someone said Soundwave sucks... but i think we haven't heard his true voice yet. he was only transmitting Arcee's voice that he had captured.

that said, TF Prime looks pretty cool. Peter Cullen is indeed the soul of Prime. what a voice!

[Zartanman]

I love Starscream and the look of Soundwave.

[SH0CKWAVE]

"the blood of Unicron!"

i love it.

[Zartanman]

Im really digging this. Much more than I thought I would. Megatron rocks. And a Zombie Autobot to come.. wow. Pretty dark stuff.

[Gyre-Viper]

"Hey fleshy." - Bulkhead

[Zefram]

i'm a little bummed TF Prime only has five bots. Bulkhead? seriously? bummer. i was hoping for some Jetfire, Rodimus, Wheeljack, Omega Supreme, etc.

Every CGI model created costs money. A LOT of money. That's why the 'Cons have army-builders now.

someone said Soundwave sucks... but i think we haven't heard his true voice yet. he was only transmitting Arcee's voice that he had captured.!

Interesting theory.

And damn! That was some dark stuff with Cliffjumper just now!

[TYPHUS]

Damn you geographical displacement!!!!!!! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

[Zartanman]

I Like that Prime does not have flames.

[Zefram]

I want Decepticon Mole Pods!!!

[Shin Densetsu]

Since when is a Real American Hero supposed to be an outlaw or a Renegade? They shouldve kept tat idea for another line.

Hama's continued A Real American Hero run is similar.

[Gyre-Viper]

I want Decepticon Mole Pods!!!


I saw the retooling happening in my mind heheheh.

[SH0CKWAVE]

skeet shooter?

haha.

i got one of those.

[Barefoot Jedi]

I want Decepticon Mole Pods!!!

I can send you about 97,000 of them for customization purposes if you like. :)

[Zartanman]

Im glad I'm not the only American Male watching cartoons today instead of Football. LOL

[Foolproof]

Im glad I'm not the only American Male watching cartoons today instead of Football. LOL

I don't have cable, so I'm reading about people watching cartoons instead of football.

[Adamantite]

Someone please upload Renegades to youtube for all of us geographically challenged.

[SH0CKWAVE]

i didn't think i would like it, but TF Prime wins.

Megatron just shot up!! wicked!

[Zefram]

OMFG!!!!?!?! Herbert West is the Autobot's doctor!!!!!!!!!

[SH0CKWAVE]

drum roll...

[GrimlocksPS]

Renegades Roadblock is Tf Primes Bulkhead? Nice!

[Cobra Terrorist]

I'm really liking the "Cobra Industries" commercials!

[Gyre-Viper]

"Knowing is half the battle." - but applied to COBRA.
brilliant!!!!!

[Zefram]

Anybody else nerding out over the fact Jeffery Combs is playing a doctor on a show with characters being revived from the dead as monstrosities?

http://i802.photobucket.com/albums/yy302/zeframmann/Random/west.jpg

[Zartanman]

Scarlett's HAWT.. love the attitude.

[GrimlocksPS]

Love it! DOn't wanna give spoilers but dayyyyuuuuuuum Snake Eyes!

[Zartanman]

I want those cobra Troopers/Vipers already.

[Cobra Terrorist]

I'm really liking the tone and the interactions between the characters. Yeah, I'm gonna like this show, I think!

[Zartanman]

10 minutes in and I'm 100% sold!!

Agreed!!! on both Shows. WOW This is just like the 80s I mean I got that same feeling I did when I was a kid watching them.

These shows kick the 80s cartoon ARSE all over every which way though.

[SH0CKWAVE]

10 minutes in and I'm 100% sold!!

i'm still not feeling it... but the weed hasn't kicked in yet.

[Cobra Terrorist]

[Zefram]

Haha! Minbender is friggin' bonkers!!! :D

[GrimlocksPS]

Hmm i like the different approach to everyones favorite Brain Twisting Doctor.

[SH0CKWAVE]

now the Joes are fighting the almighty Gyre-Viper, err Bio-Viper.

[CrimsonGuard101]

This cartoon is terrible..the conatsnt bickering between tunel rat and ricpord is already beyond annoying...and Beavis i mean Duke is all spazzy like "we are taking them!" and going to turn Scarlett in...and blah blah...

Mindbender is a reatrd so far...stripped right outta ben 10...

[JohnnyAngel77]

i'm still not feeling it... but the weed hasn't kicked in yet.

:)
Haha, nice. :D

[Cobra Terrorist]

Haha! Minbender is friggin' bonkers!!! :D

I'm missing the 'stache and mega-ripped abs, lol, but the character is cool so far.

Did the same guy do voices in Transformers: Animated? He sounds like the Headmaster guy from TFA...

[Zefram]

I'm missing the 'stache and mega-ripped abs, lol, but the character is cool so far.

Don't know, but I'm surprised he didn't shout "EPIC FAIL!" at the Joes. :D

[Zartanman]

hah! greenshirts

[Zefram]

He called the Joes greenshirts!

[SH0CKWAVE]

how long before a Renegades video game.

Sweet! Ripcords dead!

[CrimsonGuard101]

Lee Majors just said "what the sam hill" lol...this is terrible dialouge...

[kneroh]

This is so good!

good show

[GrimlocksPS]

Nope two differennt guys.

[GrimlocksPS]

Hahah loved the back and forth between Lady Jaye and Flint.

"I dont date suits"

[Gyre-Viper]

SPOILER ALERT:








wow graphic sheep corpses.

[GrimlocksPS]

re: Renegades

"This is so much better than the old ones. The dialogue is so much better... the sound is not all cheesy."

I like how they are using different accents. Like Lady jaye has that Michelle Rodriguez thing going on.

[CrimsonGuard101]

somone better call scarpy doo! Don Knotts farm is haunted by Bio-vipers! oh wait we just have to stomp on thier tentacles and they let ya go...

[Hmheggins2000]

Different approach to cobra, I mean how they have been a friendly force to the world. The infomercial on cobra was pretty good.

[ultramax]

BAD ASSSS!!!!!!!!!!!! awesome UPDATED CONTEMPORARY show, where the toys at??? lol

to the haters, eat it!!!


cant wait for the snakes eyes 2 part episode

[Zartanman]

SPOILER>>> SPOILER!!!!!!!!!!!!














I seriously doubt Ripcord is dead. that would bee TOO GOOD. LOL.. but Im amazed that in the first episodes of both shows they deal with death of a team member. This aint yo mamas cartoon... LOL

[SH0CKWAVE]

45 minutes in...

ok. it's not that bad.

i hope it keeps getting better.

[Owner of a Lonely B.A.T.]

I so see the Helix head coming back for Renegades Baroness.

[JohnnyAngel77]

45 minutes in...

ok. it's not that bad.

i hope it keeps getting better.
Heh, nice.

[Owner of a Lonely B.A.T.]

J-E-L-L-O Vipers!

[Owner of a Lonely B.A.T.]

Is Brian Bender related to John Bender?

[GrimlocksPS]

MARS industries manufactures the best toys

[SH0CKWAVE]

this is much better... stoned.

[CrimsonGuard101]

How many Joes does it take to kill a bio-viper? the world may never know!...have they not figured it out yet they can't shoot it nor slice it?

Where are the cobra troppers, volcano vipers, CGs and blue shirts already blah...

[JohnnyAngel77]

Along with just about everything else.

[JKahn913]

Hooray for electricity!

[ultramax]

bunnyyyyyyyyyyyy

[Zefram]

Argh! Laptop... running... out...

[Owner of a Lonely B.A.T.]

Isn't it kinda odd that one of the 'Now you Know' PSA's tells us to NOT touch a downed powerline, but Renegades Duke does just that?

[CrimsonGuard101]

Hooray for electricity!

LOL the new joe public service announcment is "Hey kids its ok to pick up an electrified power line and carry it in your hand!"

Future generations of kids are doomed!

[Zartanman]

But he was wearing gloves.. LOL

[Sho Nuff]

Isn't it kinda odd that one of the 'Now you Know' PSA's tells us to NOT touch a downed powerline, but Renegades Duke does just that?

Flint said it best....

"Looks like Duke might be that stupid after all." :D

[Zartanman]

apparently its also OK to eat bio engineered super weapons.. YAY I can go get that Flu shot after all.. LOL

[CrimsonGuard101]

whoa whoa whoa she just called DUke Grunt... end of the world@!

[Revenge_Creature]

Man O Man - I heart Renegades!
It's weird, and everyone looks 6 years old, but I think it's going to be pretty damn good! Just throwin' my two cents in! Gotta get back to the show - someone stole Flint's Jeep!

[JohnnyAngel77]

I love the Duke vs Flint, freakin awesome.

[CrimsonGuard101]

It's dr. Claw De Cobra Comandre! LMAO terrible

Also the Music is terrible, there is like zero action compared to the sunbow cartoon...if not for Snake Eyes this is just like ROC...just a bunch of crap with the Joe name slapped on it once again...I cant grt into this...TF Prime totally owns over this, too bad GI JOE blows goat chunks...but hey I didn't expect much going in lol..oh well mayb ein 8 years something better will come out...

[Gyre-Viper]

"Unfortunately we lost the Bio-Viper prototype." - Baroness

[Owner of a Lonely B.A.T.]

So Hawk has one eye and so does CC.

[Zartanman]

WOW!!! LOVED it!

[Hmheggins2000]

Flint vs Duke in High school football, I see a captian gridiron in the future.

[Cobra Terrorist]

Hmm, I'm a little skeptical about that CC....

[ultramax]

cobra commander!!!

[SH0CKWAVE]

Renegades does not suck.

Hasbro wins!

F@ck yeah.


Transformers Prime / GI Joe Renegades

thank you, Hasbro. well-freaking-done.

Agreed. I'm EXTREMELY impressed by both shows thus far!

[JohnnyAngel77]

That was awesome, completely.

[Griff]

wow totally corny...but looks like rip ate it pretty eaerly so theres hope :D

[Shin Densetsu]

Renegades does not suck.

Hasbro wins!

F@ck yeah.


Transformers Prime / GI Joe Renegades

thank you, Hasbro. well-freaking-done.
*snip*

Which one do you like better?

[Owner of a Lonely B.A.T.]

I'm calling it now.......Gummy Bio-Viper tie in.

[kneroh]

That was wonderful! It met all of expectations and I felt like a kid while watching it. This is going to be a great year for GI Joe!

[Slaymaker]

No time to read all of this - but I LOVED IT!

Can't wait for more!

:D

:D

:D

[CrimsonGuard101]

wow totally corny...but looks like rip ate it pretty eaerly so theres hope :D

I am sure a Bio-viper will crap him out sooner or later lol...no way they can leave out the most annoying character in the joe universe now...after all Weeny Rat needs somone to make fun of right?

[Barefoot Jedi]

That was f*cking fabulous!!!

I genuinely adored it!!! The execution of the premise was superb. It took more risks than I expected.

I dearly hope it connects successfully to its target audience outside the fanboy community.

Wow.

[junglecat79]

wow that was worse then S6 and i didnt think anything could be worse then that. im not digging it at all. the only good thing is ripcord die lol.

i hope kids like it but this joe fan is out from watching another ep. they mess up the cobra symbol, they took the kowing is 1/2 the battle saying. hawk looks like nick fury it just looks and fells bad for this guy.

kids my dig it and i hope they do but this is not the joe i know and love.

[Hmheggins2000]

So Hawk has one eye and so does CC.

I think Hawk lost the right eye and CC is missing the left, maybe this will be one of those eye for eye series.

[Zefram]

apparently its also OK to eat bio engineered super weapons.. YAY I can go get that Flu shot after all.. LOL

I see Bio-Viper candy in our future. :D

I like how Flint's a bit of an ass in this. Not a bad guy, but a bit of a smug bastard.

There are a lot of different personalities going on. Can't wait to hear Clancy Brown as Destro.

[teemu8]

Rene-FAIL!!!

[Zefram]

...but this is not the joe any of us know.

And trust me, that's a good thing. :P

[SH0CKWAVE]

Which one do you like better?

i'm still processing the experience.

i really dig them equally.

there are things about both that i didn't think i'd like, but i was surprisingly receptive and enjoyed them as a whole. they were VERY well done. i'm so glad i was so wrong. i was hoping it would turn out that way.

i love Megatron and Mindbender. Prime is so good too.

[jcast]

Prime is going to resonate and own over renegades with the kids I am affraid. Renegades dosent have anything over Prime at this juncture.

[Gyre-Viper]

Prototypes! Already?!?



heh no it was a joke based on Baroness' dialogue.

[Zefram]

I really like the voice cast on both Prime and Renegades. They really did well on the action and vocal directing and scored some really great talent.

[Immortal_Joker]

is there anyway for us NON-Hub Channel owners that can see both Prime and Renegades????

[skrapps]

eh, i might be in the minority saying i disliked it. hawk reminds of nick fury, and i guess from the opening scene..we now know where the shock trooper is from

[Tankster]

holy hell i forgot.......i am ashamed

[CrimsonGuard101]

is there anyway for us NON-Hub Channel owners that can see both Prime and Renegades????

Looks bad on TV it should have been a web release first imop...since they dont wanna give you the HD channel over the standard definition channel..

[Echo7Solo]

kids my dig it and i hope they do but this is not the joe i know and love.

lucky for you all of the Joe you know and love is on DVD. Lucky for the kids there is something new for them.

[Zefram]

is there anyway for us NON-Hub Channel owners that can see both Prime and Renegades????

Torrents I imagine. I give it a few hours before someone puts an HD rip up. I work at night usually and don't have a DVR, so that's the only way I can keep up with prime time viewing.

[FumblesYV0]

Renegades was awesome!!!! but eh what do I know I liked ROC....please dont hurt me

[Hawk1171]

It sucked. The artwork sucked big time. Story sucked big time. Animation sucked big time. Renegades is a bad product. Resolute kicked a$$ and the original cartoon kicked @$$.

[Immortal_Joker]

its not just the HD channel but im not a US resident too so anyone can provide help that would be good

[kneroh]

Looks bad on TV it should have been a web release first imop...since they dont wanna give you the HD channel over the standard definition channel..

I have the HD channel and it looked great!

[Echo7Solo]

Looks bad on TV it should have been a web release first imop...since they dont wanna give you the HD channel over the standard definition channel..

so like when they did the mini-episodes of The Avengers on Disney XD on the web then when they aired the show on tv they just put the mini-episodes from the web as the first few shows?

Trust me, that is one of many things that turned me off of that show to start with. Bad idea, very bad idea.

[C.I.A.D.]

WAH WAH WAH THIS ISNT MY GIJOE WAH WAH WAH.


Sorry, just wanted to re-post that so I could read it instead of seaching back a couple of pages.

If you want 80's G.I.Joe, buy the DVDs and relive the adventure any time you want.

This new take on Joe, IMO, is rather kick ass. Looking forward to seeing how the plot develops. Absolutely LOVE all of the vehicles shown so far.

Prime reminded me of Beast Machines meets Energon...but still a win as well.

[CrimsonGuard101]

Well maybe for you but hey least people could watch it maybe get the word out better about this crap. But I guess thats a bad idea too to make sure your audience can even watch it to begin with...simultaneous web access woul dhave been a boost to viewership but what do i know.

[rfarrell22]

Not very impressed. Kind of confusing for my 5 year old son who watches the old toons and has seen RoC a few times. I just hope the kids like it.

[Immortal_Joker]

It sucked. The artwork sucked big time. Story sucked big time. Animation sucked big time. Renegades is a bad product. Resolute kicked a$$ and the original cartoon kicked @$$.

Resolute is gone deal with it
