It's just 10 episodes, right?

I'm not sure how I feel about all these guys getting knocked off. Yeah, people die in war and stuff, but Major Bludd was the 1st one to kinda irk me. I mean, we got no story of how cool (or uncool) he was. Stormy was fine. Bazooka was ok. Zartan, seemed kinda fast and weird. At least Gung Ho and Roadblock lived. The crossfire thing, apparently the Cobra Troopers can't aim worth a darn still. *shrug*

Decent set up if they want to do more. And I guess the 2 Joes that fell from the satellite had parachutes afterall.

So what else is new these days?

There's still a ten-minute finale to go.

These were interesting. But I didn't find them as enjoyable as the others. Didn't like Zartan.. more of a thug than a master of disguise. The Marvel version was better, ultimately.

Getting killed off so quickly was okay as I couldn't stand this new personality of his. I agree with others here, why not kill off some Dreadnok.

Duke and Scarlett should not have survived that crossfire. Semi-automatic weapons verses pistols.. the troopers should've be able to get them both. Scarlett does a Matrix move, shooting accurately while being blown through the air from an explosion...

Destro, I simply do not like his "mask". It's too flexible, he's got a lot of neck.. really doesn't resemble the figures, any of them, other than a black suit and silver mask.

The troopers were not the only ones missing, Gung-Ho and Roadblock should've been able to hit the Baroness or massive Destro, or shoot through those computer consoles/desks.

Glad to see Tunnelrat had a parachute.

The deaths are the best part of Resolute. Now when there's a fight I'm worried somebody might die. Makes for an intense show.

I thought Resolute would make me like Duke. My favorite characters are usually based on what action figures I like the best and he just got his first good figure with Resolute. While I found him boring before, now I definitely hate him. What does Scarlett see in that arrogant quitter?

Why do animators insist on making Destro's steel mask flexible?

Stalker needs a haircut.

Really like the idea of the USS Flagg as their base of operations. Very effective for a mobile force like the Joes.

Agreed: the USS Flagg as the base of operations makes good sense.

Cool Resolute

I honestly don't know where to start, one side of the fanbase says;
"Oi we want some realism in our fantasy adventure.. lets see someone get killed"

when someone writes and does something good, by killing off characters we're always going to get complaints aren't we... one persons junk.. is another persons treasure and all that

For the most part I loved this.. everything GIJOE should be in modern day, theres a few things that really made me laugh, like over 20+ years of being in a terrorist organization and the troopers from cobra still can't aim? but i think we should be satisfied we have something thats way better than the film could ever hope to be..

I think the animation of them caught in crossfire, is being pinned down by heavy fire before outsmarting their way past the troopers.. at least this is how i see it, it was the same in many programs.. especially the A-Team..

Back to resolute, i like it, not sure about them killing off major bludd without a backing story was a good idea but sonnelion has already mentioned that.

If this makes it's way to dvd i'll definately be getting it, the animation and movement i really enjoyed, the bit where they have to deal with those alley vipers, theres extra camera shake and heavy fire to add to the illusion they really are in trouble, some of the angles are really good too especially with Scarlett, it makes me appreciate her all the more now!! and i liked her anyway!!

Good stuff

All in all, it was okay. Interesting to see an adult-aimed Joe cartoon. But it felt condensed just an hour.

Spoilers

Spoiler:
Firefly's whole role was to shoot a missile, with a hologram maker, at the UN.

Flint was just base guy and LJ was nowhere to be seen. No scenes with Cobra Commander and any named Cobras.

NO BATS, that Resolute 5 pack is a lie, man!
