CBR is known for being strongly Leftist. Visiting their forumboards are like visiting reddit.
Wokeness is implicitly racist. It is just an extension of southern antibellum racism. None of that addresses the article. Let's stop injecting politics into everything.

di Bonaventura totally has this. The first movie failed to reach a new generation because of the writers strike. The second film failed to reach a new generation because the older crowd (of whom it wasn't for) did not support it. Snake Eyes failed to reach a new generation because America is racist and couldn't accept an Asian Snake Eyes. But this time, this time is definitely it. Picture it, Lady Jaye. She's the all around goddess. There is nothing she can't handle, and even Rey Palpatine would crumble beneath Jaye's might! She's, literally, the bestest ever! You don't need examples or any kind of coherent, at least semi believable back story, just know she's the best. By a lot. She doesn't really need a team, but those old white misogynist dudes that call the shots are needing her to scale down a few notches to be on the same level as the rest of the world. She can fly anything blindfolded, but she needs a pilot, according to the big brass. Enter Flint. He's ok as a pilot, but he's full of himself, and a constant goof up. He's got a crush on Jaye, but she ain't got time for any of that. It's all about saving the world! Then there's Hardball. Everyone loves Hardball, and he just loves to have a good time! Then there's Jill Morelli, the tech specialist. She's young, and quirky, but gets the job done. She thinks Flint is annoying. Finally, there's Polly, who was rescued by Jaye on a former mission. Kept in a cage all his life, she freed him, (and some tigers too, because they were too beautiful to not be free. Yeah, they ate a few people before being caught by animal control, state and federal authorities, but she's still a hero for liberating them) and the two became best pals. Their mission: Cobra Commander, a former vet who cracked from PTSD and wants the world to pay for their crimes. Their crimes? Being born. He plans to use a device called the weather dominator, to enslave the world until his demands are met. Now Jaye (oh yeah, and the others) must race to stop this heinous criminal and prevent the world to succumbing to global warming. Jaye actually relates to the Commander, since they view the rest of the world as dull, dumb and hopeless. (Except Polly!) The Commader tries his damndest to get Jaye to join him Together they can rule the world! But her will is stronger than his, and she overcomes him. She, literally, destroys the weather dominator with her icy stare! At some point, there will be giant mechanical spiders. And a friend of a friend, who knows a guy, who's cousin has a neighbor, who once met di Bonaventura, says he saw some of the script. At some point in the film, Jaye will be fighting polar bears. Hand to hand! Probably on top of icebergs as they are sinking. Also starring Madonna, John Cena, Kim Petras amd Don Knotts. Time frame looks to be around spring 2025. And remember. If none of it sounds good to you, it's because it's not made for you. And you're probably just a horrible person anyway.

Let's wait for a more official source about the possible Gi Joe project.
CBR's speculation "fanfiction" articles have baited me so many times is why I bring up their rage click bait reputation. Nothing brings the rage in me more than CBR claiming a project is "100% in the works" and then at the bottom it says "according to rumors I saw on Twitter."

The word "woke" is broadly used to describe a state of being "aware of and actively attentive to important facts and issues especially of racial and social injustice" according to the Merriam-Webster dictionary. While it originated from African American Vernacular English (AAVE) in the early part of the 20th century, the term has become a common part of American slang.
Its usage has evolved and grown so much that conservatives now use it as a pejorative to refer to progressives or left-leaning liberals. The phrase "stay woke" has long been used in Black communities to indicate staying alert to others' deception--especially law enforcement--as a survival mechanism, but in 2014 "stay woke" became common usage among Black Lives Matter activists after the police killing of Michael Brown, bringing it into the wider lexicon. - https://www.snopes.com/articles/4647...erm-stay-woke/ Stop using the word term woke out of text. When you do some will think you're using euphemism for anti-black and in the context of this conversation people can. |

The screenwriters of Rise of Cobra were not aware that ice floats in water, and that an iceberg will not sink if you shoot at it. This was a concept they were too ignorant to comprehend.
That had nothing to do with "wokeness." It was entirely about the writers and director of that movie being utter morons. |

I always assumed that it was Americans misunderstanding when us Brits say something is "wank" when using it as a negative. Surely being woke, is just not being a dick.
Nevermind as an outsider, I don't really understand the "us versus them" of US politics and people talking about the complete polarisation. To most of the rest of the world, American politics is a choice between right wing and far right wing. As a left leaning Brit, I'd probably be seen as a communist over there. Anyway forget the politics talk, this thread was meant to be GI Joe as "America, F**k Yeah", but without the satire. Good luck with that as a film for a toy brand.
