Ode To GI Joe was made for the song I'll Take You there by The Staple Singers. Open another window and start the song and the film at the same time. The sync will be pretty good. They should release the audio rights for this film - it's a legitimate work of art and they're only making themselves look petty by blocking it.
I remember seeing this on Encore some twelve years ago. This is so hilarious; at least the Joes could have cleaned up Bobby's room when they were through partying! Wonderful video featuring one of the all time heroes of toyland.
I just wish I had Joes when I was younger (1970s).
I remember seeing this at a Spike & Mike animation fest YEARS ago. It was and still is one of my favorites. I wish I could find a clearer copy -- this absolutely rocks.
Right on! Just got out of Pirates 3 movie premiere & sat next to the creator of this. Contact me if you're still interested in guest speaking for an animation class.
this is great, looks like my room back in '70 when i was 7 ( damn i'm old lol) wish i still had my original joes. atleast ive got some of the faithful reproductions :)thanx for posting this vid .
I saw this at The Brooks Institute the day it came off the editing real. Its still awesome!

Just play "I'll Take You There" while you play this and it's ALMOST the same.
