I'll bite. All three were quality series and ended up better than what Renegades is now...
...BUT... ...all three also started off a lot rockier (if I could only go back in time and find Teen Titans posts when that hit), and didn't really hit their stride until at least season two in all three cases (how much better did Justice League get when it became Unlimited?), so you have to admit that comparing them when Joe is barely out the gate isn't totally fair. |

This thread, much like every thread in every forum that exists, or ever existed on the Internet, is a prime example of why there will never be world peace. Humans are incapable of polite discourse. If we can't talk about a cartoon without getting into arguments, how exactly is the US going to disarm N. Korea and get them back into the fold? Humans are doomed. And I'm not just referring to this forum. This forum is actually tame to some of the ones I have read. On Yahoo there are usually a few death threats posted. LOL
I will watch the cartoon every week like a dutiful Joe Fan. I will buy whatever toys they release like the dutiful Joe Fan. But I am getting weary of mediocrity. Maybe one day I will wake up and not be the dutiful Joe fan. By the way I'm not claiming to be above arguing over stuff, I'm as flawed as the rest of you. |

Except that then people will still disagree on what they dislike or what needs improving, so the entire argument logically becomes moot.

If I have a problem with you I have your phone number. What you said made me think of something else. Dude, you need to chill.

Here's my couple of pennies in a pros/cons perspective.
CONS ----- - The animation to me looks rushed, and the facial proportions (mainly the eyes) make em look slightly down syndromish. - I don't like the change in the characters like Scarlett bein' a higher rank than Duke, Breaker bein' a wimpy british computer nerd, although its becoming less important how some obscure characters are portrayed. So, until Beachhead shows up as a blonde hair surfer from cali who happens to work part-time for Cobra, I'll chill on those complaints. - The fact that the Joes are more at odds with other Joes. It sounded good when I first read the premise but the more I see it, the less interesting it is to me. Maybe if Flint and Duke got stupid MMA style I could dig this 'civil war'. - The fact theres no commercials for the Toys. It don't make sense. The fact that Renegades and POC are of a different brand in the line shouldn't be a reason to not do it. They don't even have to show the package, just kids playing, and a shot of the vehicle and figs at the end. PROS ----- - Its a G.I.Joe cartoon. How fuckin' dope is that! - Cobra is portrayed as a true threat. The fact that they slithered their way into mainstream society via goods and services without bein' noticed is pure genius. Major props. - More TOYS! Yeah, you can clap to that. - The bad guys are really bad. Baroness(accent/design/attitude/) A+. Major Bludd(same as Baroness but can also kick ass) A+. Cobra Commander(not a buffoon/creepy and a real leader to Cobra) A+. ...would give more examples, but thats about two cents.
