In this episode of Cinemassacre's Rental Reviews James, Justin and Kieran review G.I. Joe: The Movie from 1987, which capped off the first two seasons of the TV run. In the movie, G.I. Joe's Special Task Force finds its mission to preserve peace and freedom threatened by the evil Golobulus. Created at the height of the G.I. Joe craze in the 1980s, G.I. Joe: The Movie was intended as a theatrical release to be closely followed by The Transformers: The Movie. However, the G.I. Joe film encountered unexpected production delays which allowed the Transformers feature to be released first. Due to the poor box office performances of The Transformers: The Movie and My Little Pony: The Movie, G.I. Joe: The Movie was instead released direct-to-video as well as aired on television in syndication, first in feature-length format and later split into a five-part miniseries format as part of the series' syndication package.

YO JOE!!! A few of us are getting back together, but the goal is to return to our 3-person setup one day. Oh, few things we missed in this episode: In the UK the GI Joe are known as ACTION FORCE, much like the Ninja Turtles being the Hero Turtles. They redid the theme songs and everything as Action Force and Sgt. Slaughter was changed to Sgt. Slammer! Weird. We also wanted to get more into how the soundtrack needed something like Transformer's Stan Bush songs, but this episode was already running a little long. Hope you know more about GI Joe now, and knowing is half the battle.

Cobra Commander came back eventually. He shows up in a Transformers episode as 'Old Snake". Also if you look up this video: G.I Joe:Sgt. Savage and the Screaming Eagles, you’ll see him at around 15: 50

Covid-19, a horror movie come to life, nationwide looting one of the darkest times known to man. James having no G.I. Joe background could be the biggest travesty of them all.😱

Cobra commander possibly survived, he was in a season 3 episode of the transformers which is supposed to take place in the future.

The term GI Joe comes from World War II. It stands for (Government Issue Joe). During World War II everything in the military started with Government Issue and a Serial Number... so the Soldiers started calling themselves Government Issue Joe.

I remember using tulle boxes to store GI Joe's and their weapons. My driveway was below a 4 foot hill with grass , dirt, and rocks . Some of the most epic GI Joe battles took place from the apple tree on the other side of the driveway , to the rocky grassy dirt hill that lined the other side of the dryway. Lmao.
