So I was just thinking of this topic after reading the recent thread about GI JOE commercials form back in the 1980s.
Whats your favorite Joe Slogan or battle Cry: 1. YO JOE! 2. Live the Adventure! 3. Nobody Beats GI JOE! 4. GO FOR THE JOE! 5. Got to get tough, YO JOE! 6. Get GI JOE Tough! 7. Remember only GI JOE is GI JOE! I always Loved the JOE commercials that ended with Nobody bestd GI JOE and had fireworks in the background. But I also love the 1990-1991 campaign that said "Go for the JOE" and had a computer animated JOE symbol made of steel. At the end you would here the bolts tighten with an air wrench. That was just Awesome to me. So what do you think?

"Got to get tough...JOE TOUGH!"...To think someone actually sat around, threw it around the rooom(probably ALL drunk) and said "yeah! lets go with that!"...Gives me shivers over what else could have been...

#7 just might confuse an enemy long enough for you to clear the battlefield and get at 'em.

Well, even long before Heavy Duty completely ruined "Yo Joe!" even more by giggling it during the movie, Yo Joe was kinda' lame...especially when they would yell it every 2 seconds during big battles
Got to get Tough, Yo Joe, is just HILARIOUS when you think of the gawdaful DiC opening sequence. I don't think they EVER had a good battle cry/slogan. They should have made the current one the standard back in the 80's "Knowing is half the battle" is simple and straight forward

I always hated "Yo, Joe."
I think its inclusion in the comic is part of what sealed the deal for me along with introducing Rocky Balboa. lol And they do yell it like every other sentence for no reason (the other side does Cobra). *beep beep* Cobra Commander turns on the vid screen to see Destro on the vid-phone. Destro: COBRAAAAAAAA! Cobra Commander: Ah, Destro. What is the status of our operation? wtf? If I answer the phone and some dude just screams "Cobraaaa!" at me, I'm hanging up or chewing his ass out. |
