Static-Line is too much of a mouthful. Stil,l instead of SE and Stalker they make Duke and RIpcord. You know if they had made Falcon instead of Duke we might all be singing a different tune.
But yeah Marlon as Stalker would have been a bad idea. That role is for a Samuel L Jackson sort of actor. I honestly thought That Marlon was the best actor in that movie. I think he played his part well. It's not like he was over the top with looking like an idiot. He was funny, but not stupid.

Out of interest, have any of the ROC "filecards" (I hesitate to call them filecards as they really are quite rubbish these days) shown a non-army rank?
After the comment about a Ice Storm the naval Sergeant, I was wondering if they've perhaps just converted everyone's ranks to army equivalents when they are seconded to the GI Joe team (well that or they made a mistake)? |

No Shipwreck and Deep-Six both are listed with Navy Ranks. Chief Petty Officer (E-7) and Navy Diver 2nd Class (E-5)

Ok that blows my theory out of the water (or back into the water even), thanks Loose.

Hasbro just seriously needs to hire a consultant.
But then, I guess most kids nowadays just don't care.

Alright, here's a topic/question: Budo
What's the deal? Why did the Joe Team need a Samurai? I get the whole Ninja thing... it was the 80's; Ninjas are cool; Ninjas could plausibly work on a Special Ops Team in the 80's; American Ninja & TMNT were popular; etc. But why a Samurai? What could a Samurai do for the Joes that a Ninja couldn't? Are they better Martial Artists? Are they supposed to be better with a Sword? What's the deal?

I got nothing Oliver. Makes no sense.
I always pictured his first battle like the scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark Bazaar with the Swordman.

I never understood Budo.
He's got no place in the team and his outfit isn't operationally functional. Just makes no sense. His filecard doesn't even give clues beyond "infantry" and "hand to hand instructor".
