You know, Hasbro ruins everything I like. Star Wars, Marvel Legends and this new direction fo the Gi Joe cartoon and movie! BTW Dukes power suit looks like Mattel's Captain Power to me. Who wants a Body Massage?

I hope in resolute we get to see Zarana's boobs. But then again, she was hot in the 80's but she's probably all old now.

For me, the answer is "No."
I've gotten very into GI Joe, but still can't sit through an episode of the Sunbow cartoon. But I liked the Resolute clip. For me the difference is a dealbreaker : if they turn Resolute into Sunbow-level plots, I simply wont watch. I guess one way to put it: I couldn't look past Sunbow's defiance of the laws of physics (a machine that causes people to shrink!) but I want a cartoon that overlooks the laws of politics (bad guys clearly defined by blue outfits in the jungle). Any yes/no poll leaves out the nuances, but for me, personally, "No" was the closer of the two options.

Here's the thing gang, Hasbro exists to do one thing, and no it ain't provide us with toys, it's put gobs and gobs of cash in the shareholders pockets. They do not give a wild bill repaint in hell about you, me or anyone but the bottom line. They employee accountants who will look at every decision from every possible angle to see what will make the most cash. If the number crunchers come to the conclusion that making the new Gi Joe cartoon about bunnies in pink tights who slap each other in the nuts with sledge hammers made of whale penis will bring in the most green backs then that is what the execs will do. They tried Signa 6 becasue it looked a little anime, that's what's big now, the digi, poke, baku crap. Don't be surprised if they rename the characters Dukeo, Snakichu and Zartaneo if that's what will sell the most plastic little men.

They're whipping the fans into a starved frenzy. When they eventually do release a Joe cartoon, it'll get gobbled up with minimal criticism. Most will just be happy to finally have a new mini series to watch with their kids. A mini series with original characters. I think that's all most of us really want. Corny or lame, just give us original joes n' we'll be happy. It's better if they take their time, instead of giving us a hurried project. Just as long as they don't make us wait another year or two..
PSA's after each episode, like they did in the 80's would be good for the rug rascals. |

Then why show such a Kick-A sneek trailer for it? Ok. I can do that too.
"Hasbro, here is a look at the $1000 I am going to spend on your product next year.....oh wait, make it $5 instead." How deos that feel?. Of course my money prob doesnt mean much to them! lol

I didn't think the teaser looked that cool anyway. It would have been better if Snake Eyes tripped over a banana peal and was shot by the blue shirts.

I'd rather wait for quality, then get some kind of Joeimon or Joekugan. It's been decided that Rise of Cobra sucks whale penises. Atleast 'maybe' ..just *MAYBE* the cartoon won't slurp whale.
