I watched "American Ninja 2" again the other night. I think that's as close as we're ever going to get to a G.I. Joe movie set in the 80's. They even had a character named Wild Bill!

That movie is a classic! I don't know though, I wouldn't be surprised if they set Gi Joe in the 80s. Probably not but hey, hope springs eternal.

Here's my take on what to do with the 2020 movie:
1. First of all, NO black leather gear, no battle armor or power suits or any of that stuff (except for Snake Eyes, that is); give the Joes distinct looks. There's no reason not to do it - not only does it make it a helluva lot easier to sell action figures later on, but it's not like Captain America had a black leather uniform in the Marvel movies either, right (or Spider-Man, or Iron Man)? For example, I have a custom-painted navy blue/copper uniform ARAH Scarlett and I think that look would translate really well to the silver screen. 2. You could lift large chunks of the plot from the 1987 movie and re-use it; obviously, No Cobra-La, no Serpentor, Golobulus, Pythona, etc... but just have a character that's immature (I dunno, Flint instead of Falcon?), who gets himself and somebody else that he cares for in trouble, gets his ass kicked for it (I love the idea of that Sgt. Slaughter bootcamp), redeems himself, ends up saving the day. Maybe have the final stand-off between the heroes and the villains in Springfield instead of in Cobra La La Land? 3. I think the idea of having a small, core groups of Joes (with some cameos by fan favorites) is a good one. My pick: Duke, Snake Eyes, Scarlett, Flint, Lady Jaye, Stalker, Spirit. 4. Don't reinvent the wheel; you've already got solid concepts and origin stories in the Joe canon. Don't make Cobra Commander a weird scientist with a stupid-looking metal mask with a monocle - make Cobra Commander an ex car salesman who gets fed up with "the system", gets together with some like-minded people, they start running for local office and generally gaining influence through underhanded means thus evolving into Cobra; don't make everybody related to everybody else or be each other's ex-boyfriends, girlfriend, etc. Of course all of the above comes with a caveat that they could get some big Hollywood Actor, who says "I wanna play THIS character and I want him to do X and Y", and eff everything up. |

Would be nice if Joe Johnston or the Russos could direct this. Captain America: The First Avenger and Winter Soldier were pretty great GI Joe movies....

So could Hasbro buying all of Power Rangers in the near future and Hasbro still trying to buy Mattel could those both because Hasbro thinks they don't have as many characters as Marvel and DC to use in a shared movie universe?

Hasbro doesn’t own the film rights to the Power Rangers. They just have the toy rights. They couldn’t put Power Rangers into their cinematic universe anymore than they could put Star Wars into a Transformers movie. |

That would be a coup for the project. It would certainly get a lot of positive press.

M.A.S.K and ROM were cancelled... Micronauts and GI Joe are the only talk for new movies...
