GI JOE recently came out with a movie, I haven’t brought myself to view it yet. I am afraid my eyes will fall out. Or at the very minimum I will vomit all over the kids sitting in front of me. It will soon be out of DVD ( maybe already is) and by DVD I mean OnDemand because why the shit would I rent it when I could click two buttons not go anywhere to watch it?

Exhibit #1 - Still from the Movie, Destro(right) no longer has a metal head...Cobra Commander isn't a snake hybrid rather that kid from Third Rock from the Sun...
THE MOVIE COULD HAVE BEEN 100% BETTER (and remember if I haven’t seen it) if this guy was destro!
The reason kids like GI JOE’s so much was the characters were sooo bad ass. I mean snake eyes. Awesome. A black Ninja who doesn’t talk… just kicks ass. That will be the only reason I end up renting this train wreck of a movie.
I wanted to grow up to be a GI JOE Villain when I was a wee tot.
The original creators actually sat down and thought. “What do little boys like?” … sort of an odd thing to do when you think about it. They black and yellow robot warriors with detachable hands. Ohh what do those hands do? Only become claws and missles and dusters. Well evil head quarters get dirty too silly!
I am going to fly my flag at half mast in memory of the glory of GI JOES… Somebody bring me a flag, then go fly it at half mast. Then dab my tears.
Crying.
