Seriously, if not going to take the thread seriously and the topic seriously, then just don't post.
I'm not a "nay-sayer" but I'll go with this..
I think ARAH as we know it is pretty dated. Resolute was an OK update, but I don't think it would have caught the attention of today's audience to much.
I'd make a new cartoon, kid-friendly, but more geared towards the 10-13 range. Action orienated. Trim the Joe team way down and make it more of a rapid response unit. I'd get rid of the more "out-there" weapons and gear, make Cobra a bigger threat. I'd give Cobra the "out-there" stuff. They'd be a huge and competant army. They should win more then they lose or else there's no threat. They have access to technologies that no one else does, yes that includes nano-mites. The Joes need to be underdogs. They're totally secret, no reporters nosing around, etc..
The tone would be serious, but moments of light heartedness, there would be one-liners, but nothing cheesy. Continuing plots that take 2 or more episodes to wrap up. There would be death.
Really I'd go with the way I have my Joeverse organized. There would be an Alpha Team (the Joe army, with air support, armor, artillery, etc..) and the Delta Teams (the Joe's sneaky special ops guys). They'd be HQed in a mountain fortress (which I am currently designing one to make it more real, the PITs as shown in the comics were never big enough).
Cobra would be dangerous and with their level of tech, they would be a match for any army. So the Joes would be more sneaky, no direct battlefield confrontations, they wouldn't survive those with Cobra.
The plot of RoC isn't bad, really what's annoying people is the A-Suits and that Destro is the main baddie and not CC. Replace Destro with CC and get rid of the A-Suits and you'd have a very good Joe movie.
