Airhammy 02/04/22 11:28:05 PM #14:	TF:TM is my favorite movie. https://i.imgur.com/EaJLvER.gif With that said I have seen the GI Joe film. Amazing intro, but from there it takes a turn. Still good and all. It still had the feel of the show since the movie retained the music (which was also used in S3 of Transformers). Then of course there's Duke's "coma" as a result of Optimus Prime, and the COBRALALALALA thing is hilarious. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUw8cN6R8o0 --- http://air-hammer.deviantart.com/ <cite>Airhammy posted [p:962377725] in Were you a...

LeadPipeCinche 02/04/22 11:31:15 PM #15:	Love both cartoon movies. ALL the live action ones are trash. And why did they need John Cena if they weren't going to put him in the Bumblebee movie. Which is another thing, why is Bumblebee only like 10 minutes long? I mean it has the G1 opening, they leave Cybertron and the movie just ends. Happens every time, wonder why they made the movie so short.....to much G1 awesomeness I guess. <cite>LeadPipeCinche posted [p:962377806] in Were you a...

ReaperCloud 02/04/22 11:57:01 PM #17:	Watched both movies as a kid...well probably teenager since they came out around 1987? G.I. Joe: The Movie was weird. All the Sci-Fi with the pods and the B.E.T. was cool, but Cobra-La was like a crazy fever dream. I could never stand Sgt. Slaughter as a Joe (or as a wrestler) so he ruined it the most for me. Poor Cobra Commander didn't deserve what he got... Transformers: The Movie was terrible to me. Killing off popular characters or drastically changing them wasn't cool in my opinion, but I knew what they were doing...making new toys to sell. Seeing Devastator was nice. Wasn't a fan of Unicron or the song that everyone seems to love so much..."The Touch." G.I.

FortuneCookie 02/05/22 12:10:03 AM #20:	The thing about G.I. Joe: The Movie is that the plot focuses on mutants from a lost civilization. That's not exactly the first thing one thinks about when you mention a military-themed cartoon show. It feels like they took a planned pilot for a series about Atlantis and shoehorned in the G.I. Joes. The plot to Transformers: The Movie may be that a larger, deadlier robot has arrived to destroy the Earth, but that's an extension of the basic premise of the show. A larger robot fits in with a series about robots fighting robots. Turning a show about American heroes battling terrorists into a film about the military battling mutants is a deviation from the central premise. It still works. It's just not the best fit. <cite>FortuneCookie posted [p:962378583] in Were you a... [t:79884843]...</cite> <quote>The thing about G.I.
