G.I. Joe: The Movie is a 1987 animated film spun off from the animated series G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero, based on the original Hasbro toyline.[1] It was produced by Sunbow Productions and Marvel Productions and was animated in Japan by Toei Animation.
@Fagatron2000 I'd say so. I think the artists were trying to show refraction because of the glass dom she was in but it's way more fun to say, "SHAWTY GOTTA FAT ASS"
i use to watch this cartoon everyday after school. It at that time had like 4 diferent openings then. I think it was 89 when the movie came out i was like oh shit its done. Then the new series i just could not connect with at all. I like the cross over they had with a few transformers toons.
@darthteej1 Feh. Navy SEALs wish they were as bad ass as GI Joe members are. One guy got into GI Joe because his special skill was being a Native American Shamen with quasi-mystical powers. Another one was a former Movie Star Martial Artist. Then there was one guy... Who's bio says he was a SEAL, an Astronaut, a deep sea diver, a fighter pilot, a kung-fu expert, a world championship shooter, and a physicist who has a PhD.
I'm ready to sign up RIGHT NOW!!! Don't know if Alpine was that brave through the series to grapple a Cobra vehical in mid flight and ride it through the air, but hey...good to see a brotha reppin for his country!!!
Christopher Lawrence Latta, and also known as Chris Latta, was an American actor, voice artist and comedian, perhaps best known as the voice of Cobra Commander on the G.I. Joe animated series and as the voice of Starscream in the first Transformers animated series. Frank Welk was the voice of Megatron.
This is the GI Joe I remember...not the movie that's about to come out. I do have a thought though. People were complaining about the Sci Fi element of the new movie to me. However, in the intro for the animated movie, I see Battle Android Troopers and Duke using a Jetpack to fly a bomb to the Cobra Command Ship in less then eight seconds. Is the new move really that far from the source material when you figure in the cartoon from the 80s?
@lastdragon55 I think the original source material the naysayers are referring to are the GIJoe comic books that came even before the TV cartoons and were quite down to earth when compared.
you said well-known, like it mattered, I could careless if you were splirting your opinion, but you were saying something stupid, if you read back i actually agreed with you minus the well known part
no reason to get all bitchy! I'm talkin about a band that isn't some fly-by night shit band! Not good..awesome! I don't want some Mutemath bullshit! they murdered the theme for transformers! saliva did the spyhunter theme and did a damn good job! see the difference!?
Spyhunter sucked, the soundtrack could not save it. mutemath is a shit band, so therefor gave you shit music.... Some bands were underground untill their movie debuts so chill out
you don't even know what i'm talking about. I'm talking about the theme that Saliva made for the Spyhunter game on ps2!! And you probably never heard the Blacklab version of the Transformers theme, so slow your role!
uuuumm..ok..why? Because I have my OWN OPINION? I simply stated that I hope a GREAT band did the music for the movie..! That's it! What's so annoying about that? What are you? Eleven years old?
if i had pick defintely cobra cool ass song but my cobra wouldnt be so cowardly i would have them beating joe's like every 3 episodes 2 even it out lol
This is CLASSIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The music, the drive of the lyrics, the good vs evil conflict, just gives you that good buzzed warm feeling, doesn't it?
Well, at least we know Cobra is only good at destroying video cameras, i mean Cobra is awesome, but parachuting thousands of armed terrorists down and all they manage to do is smash up a video camera :/
Lmao your right and why are they attacking the statue of liberty? There has gotta be higher priority targets then that. I mean even the white house or the pentagon would be better.
and whats the point in that spaceship? i mean....they use a tiny bomb on the statue, why not use that spaceship thing? surely it'd have a laser beam thing on it or something that'd destroy the statue in a second....makes no sense
Sure it would. But if they wanted to destroy the statue why would they paratroop a thousand men on it first. How come they just didnt shoot it with the ship I mean it must hae weapons. And despite it being a target that would lower morale cobras goal is domination. Destroying a statue with no stategic value would be stupid for them to do. Anyway its a goofy cartoon.

But no, your logic doesn't follow.
Only the hand drawn animation is done in Japan or in other studios, the things that actually make the show are done in the US.
For it to be a true Anime it would have to be crated, written, produced, acted, animated in Japan.
