the movie is questionable and it isn't a sure fire hit in the u.s. over seas they can make up if it tanks here...it's the smart thing to do...
besides...if the movie does stink...i'd like the keep the greatness of old glory far away from it... |

It's an OPINION! Go somewhere else if you are that much more intelligent than everyone else.

Welcome to NATO But you're too stupid to realize you're shitting on the same thing you're professing to uphold (The honor of US military personnel). Last edited by Jmacq1; 06-17-2009 at 02:12 PM.. |

in my opinion the internation force bit works because if you look at it they are an american based unit but they operate globaly as if under the united nations rather than the american armed forces so technicaly they are still the real american hero hell even the baroness says they are.

Its kind of upsetting to me in a way to see so many votes for GI JOE to be purely AMERICAN.
Being English,for me growing up with gi joe i knew it as ACTION FORCE:AN INTERNATIONAL HERO so as far as hasbro "selling out" for ROC...they already changed it to international in the beloved 80s. If COBRA is a GLOBAL terrorist threat,then it makes sense to me for GI JOE to be too - I wouldve thought with all the recent changes in the world that a more unified approach to all things would be a much more positive way of thinking. yes this even applies to little plastic men - and the movies made about them.

Well, the song does say "GI Joe - A Real American Hero". I think we can all agree that the only true canon across all lines of Joe continuity is the original cartoon theme song.
If it makes the international contingent feel better, though, he will fight for freedom wherever there's trouble. GI Joe is there. So there's that. |

Baroness knows that Ripcord and Duke chasing her are American, hence her calling them Real American Heroes.
And yes, they did ruin GI JOE because of the international audiences, and I have a feeling its going to backfire. |

I was sure at least 50% of Americans didn't even realize there are other actual countries in the world. Case in point. |
