* {{Woolseyism}}: The Japanese dub, in stark contrast with the original English version and basically every single western-language dubs, keeps Duke's death untouched and they didn't changed it to a coma like the original version.

* TheScrappy: The Cobra-La are disliked for providing an unneeded {{retcon}} about the origins of COBRA and for being unintentionally ridiculous villains with a narmy BattleCry.

* EvilIsSexy: Just look at [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/gijoe/images/0/07/Pythona.gif/revision/latest?cb=20110820111542 Pythona]]. SnakesAreSexy crossed with the breathy, seductive voice of Creator/JenniferDarling makes for a steamy combo.

* FirstInstallmentWins: Several of the fans, who were detractors of the [[Film/GIJoeTheRiseOfCobra Live-action]] [[Film/GIJoeRetaliation films]], claimed that this film is the '''''only''''' true G.I. Joe movie.
** Part of this being that the only two canon vehicles that did get used, the SHARC and the Night Raven, had no resemblance to the 80's versions.

** After what was clearly meant to be Duke's dying words, the line "He's gone into a coma" straight afterwards is obviously haphazardly added in. It also causes later scenes, such as a fight scene where Serpentor specifically ''states'' that Duke died, quite narmy as well (though considering where he hit Duke, it's understandable that Serpentor would have little reason to think he was still alive). Quite egregious is the AlwaysWithYou ending where Falcon says to the stars "Thanks, big brother", despite the fact that the characters have already been told that Duke was awake.
