Just watched all three so far... OMG it's amazing.
I NEVER thought Cobra Commander could be voiced by anyone except Latta, but I was proven wrong. He still retained some of the old Cobra Commander, but not over the top. I am very happy with Resolute. |

Beyond the "casuality" typo, I also saw something about a "flight hanger" where it should have read "hangar." Couldn't quality control have caught that stuff while Cartoon Network was sitting on it? I kid, mostly. Everything looked so good I'm willing to overlook those things.

Accidentally posted this in screen caps, but I think it would be better here. Sorry for the double post.
Okay, someone, somewhere stated that they don't think it was Storm Shadow who killed Bazooka and set off the charges on the Flagg, that it was Zartan, who did it in a way that framed Storm Shadow and kept both him and whoever was sent after him (Snake Eyes, naturally) occupied. That sounds pretty reasonable to me, as the whole Major Bludd being found dead at the beginning points to there being some mystery to the Resolute story, and probably a bit of misdirection as well. Also, assuming this isn't a completely re-imagined take on the character, Storm Shadow has been depicted as in the past as an honorable man-- it doesn't seem like he'd be square with a plan that kills 10 million innocent people. More like he'd be another loose end, like Bludd, presumably, that needs tying up. Now here's what I think-- assuming Zartan killed Bazooka, and planted the charges-- why should we assume that he's left the Flagg? Given his powers of mimicry and disguise, shouldn't we assume that Zartan is still on the Flagg, masquerading as one of the Joes, and listening in and coercing whatever actions the team is taking going forward? It would be good for the story,certainly. Who do I think he's posing as? Duke. Duke let Snake Eyes go away after Storm Shadow (which would be exactly what Zartan would want), he even had that odd exchange of "him or me" with Scarlett (could just be a personal relationship problem, but, hey, Duke is the man in charge. He should place himself above that sort of thing). The top guy would be the best dude to impersonate, if you're trying to influence events, and, finally, knowing Ellis' work as a writer, it just seems like having Duke, the super-good-guy, actually be the bad guy would be just the sort of surprise he'd pull (they did it in Reloaded once already, so there's some sort of precedent). |

I think that's a great theory... but, I think you're overlooking someone...
There's been much discussion about this guy...who is he? Well... maybe he isn't a Joe at all? I do agree with your theory, too...during the TeleToon preview, we see Zartan firing a rocket pistol, and there looks to be some collapsed catwalks behind him...catwalks that look alot like the ones in the Flagg armory before it blew up. Hmmm... Justin |

I think most of you are jumping the gun. I'm sure there will be a outstanding explanation of why Bludd was dead immediately. Hold tight, i'm sure the team is going to blow all of us away.
As for the Gung-Ho thing...I wouldn't want him "dumb", but the accent would have been a sweet touch. Quote:

Hmmm... Justin With the producers coming on this board, we know that they value our thoughts and are watching and listening! That is awesome in it's own right. I hope they get green-lighted for a second season, possibly a series. Good job team RESOLUTE!!! Last edited by QBERT; 04-19-2009 at 12:43 PM.. |

All we really know is that there will be no Resolute: Oktober Guard figures.
