Fuck it, where do I sign up?
The Cobra Special Forces website of course!
Argh. Why does every website that has the prospect of being halfway interesting, (apart from here) have that Facebook crap on it?
I can't give props to the guy who does the Miracle of Sound video games tribute songs either because that site has a policy of adding comments through Facebook and I just will not become part of the Facebook fraternity.
So, does this mean that all of the mooks that the Joes will be mowing down by the platoonload will all be good, honest patriotic Americans wanting to serve their country?
Cause that's fucked up, man.
They are probably all mind controlled. Which somehow makes it all okay.

Well, most soldiers are good, honest patriotic (Insert Conutry Here) who just want to serve their country? Why is it fucked up if it's Americans?
They do have medals for almost, and they're called silver!
I see the Awesomeness.
I just set adblock (or one of the other adblockers I run) to block everything from facebook.
Fight smart, not fair.

Because the Joes are American too.

So the multinational team they were talking about in the first movie is now just Americans.

Well, we never really saw any non-American guys anyway, so it's back to being "America's daring highly-trained special mission force".
Heavy Duty was British and I think there was a Moroccan, wasn't there?
For what it's worth, Jinx is one of the main characters in the sequel and she's Japanese. And even if they're American, Roadblock is black and Flint is Hispanic. So it's not like we're in for a case of Monochrome Casting or anything.

But still. If Cobra was in any other nation, you'd be fine. Americans are kinda squeamish when it comes to the idea that Americans can do wrong. 
Thats because America is the bestest country ever and anyone who says otherwise hates freedom.

I'd bring up the obvious, but I don't want to start a flame war.

Thats cause you know Murrica would win.

If the Joes are an multinational team they are very, very American dominated at any rate. It looks like the vast majority of the main cast are Americans, "GI Joe" is an American term, Bruce Willis's character appears to be American, and so on. If you were to come to the movie with absolutely no knowledge of the franchise whatsoever, you probably wouldn't see that they are supposed to be a multinational force.
So most of the cast seem to be American soldiers who will be killing other (innocent, given that Keith David's recruiting campaign seems to be targeting the general public and not the moustache twirlers and sociopaths) American soldiers. Which is unsettling, to say the least.

And also the soldiers are mindraped into doing horrible things. Which I feel makes killing them even worse.

Speaking of mooks dying, we've got some new videos! One which involves ninja mooks falling to their death in hilarious and wacky ways. Also, these videos show stuff we've seen before, but some of the stuff is new.
Storm Shadow vs Snake-eyes
Also has a ninja mook falling. To his death? I'm not sure.
Apparently the red ninjas exist only so they can fall to their death.

Of course, they're Red Shirts.

Beat me to it!
What's the point of a ninja wearing bright yellow? That's like the anti-stealth. Unless you happen to be hiding in a field of yellow flowers, i suppose.
As far as I am concerned, they should have the guts to bin the title of GI Joe and just focus on Cobra. They are so obviously a better character choice that it hurts. Especially with the GI Joes becoming even more obviously Murrica' fuckyeah.
Didn't someone already make that movie a few years ago? With puppets?

Team America World Police. The South Park guys make a homage to Thunderbirds.
Snake Eyes costume looks so much better in this one its almost painful.

Well, we've got featurettes out of the wazoo! Can't remember which character featurettes I haven't posted, so I'll just post them all here.
And last but not least, the character I've been most looking forward to, Cobra Commander!
And we still don't know what he sounds like. Unless that mysterious voice at the beginning of Firefly's featurette is his.

Cobra Commander? I assume he sounds like his actor. Aka Obi Stane's unwitting pawn from IM 1.
