a5c7b9f00b Two soldiers stationed in Kazahkstan (Captain Duke Hauser and his partner "Ripcord") are ordered to transport special warheads created by MARS, an arms' manufacturer controlled by James McCullen. When they are attacked by thieves (led by Anastasia DeCobray, with whom Duke has history), they are saved by a top secret, international special forces unit known"G.I. Joe". The leader of G.I. Joe, General Abernathy (or Hawk) is on the trail of the thieves: an evil organization called "Cobra". While Duke and Ripcord train to join the Joes, McCullen ("Destro") is secretly working for Cobra and plotting to recapture his metal-eating "Nanomite" warheads. Duke and Ripcord (with help from Heavy Duty, Snake Eyes, and the rest of the Joes) must prove that they are Real American Heroes – by stopping the launch of these warheads before Cobra uses them to take over the world.
An elite military unit comprised of special operatives knownG.I. Joe, operating out of The Pit, takes on an evil organization led by a notorious arms dealer.
Yes, I actually enjoyed the movie better than the cartoons I have seen. Finally a show where the soldiers actually die. The cartoons (due mainly to censorship) had to show battles where no one got hurt and highly trained soldiers on both sides couldn't hit the broadside of a barn. The action packed movie is full of graphic death and violence. Let's face facts, they aren't tossing mud pies at each other. The technologies are very nearly plausible for a near future show.<br/><br/>The actors did a pretty good job and I would have to admit Christopher Eccleston did a fine jobDestro. I really wanted to see more of Arnold VoslooZartan. As a personal note about the whole series in general, whoever came up with the nicknames for these comic book heroes? Think about it, would you really think for one minute you will see a multi-million dollar aircraft again when you give it to a pilot known"Rip Cord"?
Forget about how stupid some lines can get (and that's a difficult one, with things like "Nice shoes" or "that's the first fight I've ever lost since I was five" or even when Destro actually becomes Destro). Forget about the annoying habit every character has of explaining every single part of the plot. Forget about how cliché or unimportant the newly introduced characters can be (For the Love of Bono, they have names like Dr. Mindbender and Heavy Duty!!!) Forget about how predictable and even disappointing the end can get. Done? OK, now you can actually enjoy G.I: Joe: Rise of Cobra! You see, the important thing about ROC is that they KNOW this isn't meant to be taken seriously. It's just harmless fun. Last time I went to look for that, I was shocked by one of the worst movies I've ever seen: Transformers 2:ROTF. And this year has been A Series of Unfortunate Events if I ever saw one: Wolverine, Terminator, Transformers. Definitely, a year to forget. Sure there have been masterpieces like Star Treak and Watchmen (I loved them both, so you may be, by now, beginning to understand what's the difference between you and me on movie tastes), but ROC is the first DUMB movie of the year that is actually good.<br/><br/>So how can I have liked ROC and hated ROTF if they are pretty much the same movie? Well, yea ROC has everything Transformers had, but done in the correct way. Explotions, action? Check. And these look good enough, not the metal orgy you had on ROTF. Hot chicks? Check, and on waaaay more likable characters than the overrated Megan Fox or the Terminatrix (yes, the one that appears on Transformers). Comedy? Check, still kinda stupid and stuff but not offensive and racistROTF. Cartoon characters? Check. And not nearlyobnoxious and idioticShia's excuse of a troubled teenager.<br/><br/>It's just a ride. A dumb easily forgotten ride, but a fun one nonetheless. As longyou don't go expecting Kusturica, I promise you at least you won't get Bay.
Formerly a real American hero, G.I. Joe is no longer a hero (it's a group) or American. (It's a multinational team of military superstars, though the way it does business, you'd feel safer with the Croatian navy on your side.)
Apart from the Sector Seven connection established by the novelization of the second Transformers movie, the fictional universes are unrelated or, by virtue of "Easter egg" homages, scarcely related. Both films were developed completely independently, with the only common point being that Lorenzo Di Bonaventura and Brian Goldner are executive producers. None of the supplemental materials (comics, novels, children's books, etc) nor any early drafts for either the Transformers films or G.I. Joe reveal any sort of link between the two film series. The only thing in this regard is that it was believed that the studio originally planned commission the production of a live-action G.I. Joe movie back in of middle of the 2000s decade but opted to go with a live-action Transformers first instead, due to the US invasion of Iraq and ensuing wars; the result being that a portion of the Transformers included two American servicemen characters and dealt with Decepticons attacking American military bases in the Middle East, whereas G.I. Joe was made to have more of a science fantasy tone than its source material, distancing it a bit from the gritty reality of wars with terrorists. In the original Real American Hero series, Tommy "Storm Shadow" Arashikage started outa member of Cobra's inner circle, but he was really there to avenge the death of his uncle, the Hard Master. When the killer turned out to be Zartan, Storm Shadow (along with his other uncle, the Soft Master, who initially thought Storm Shadow himself was the murderer) failed in his attempt to kill him, and had to flee. He eventually met up with Scarlett and Snake Eyes, who convinced him to join the G.I. Joe program. In the film, we were made to believe that Storm Shadow killed the Hard Master out of jealousy of the attention Snake Eyes was given, but in interviews following the release of The Rise of Cobra, Steven Sommers stated that Storm Shadow didn't kill the Hard Master and this would possibly be explored more in the sequel. Byung-Hun Lee had been signed on for two more sequels, and returned in <a href="/title/tt1583421/">Retaliation</a> (2013) accordingly, wherein it is revealed that Zartan was responsible for the murder. In the Marvel RAH comic continuity, Snake Eyes's vocal cords were damaged in a fiery accident, leaving him mute. He never spoke in the Sunbow or DIC cartoons either, but this was never explained. In the film, it is stated that he swore an oath of silence until he avenged the Hard Master's death, which he does. Whether this means he will speak in the sequels is unknown. An interview with creative consultant Larry Hama, who created Snake-Eyes, revealed that the original script had him speaking by the film's end. However, because of Hama's objection, the line was cut and Snake Eyes remains mute. The effect was most likely a matter of artistic license for dramatic effect, but various attempts at explanations have been explored and refuted by viewers. At sufficient density in excess of that of water, ice would sink, but it is not possible for such a properties to form naturally or to be inherently stable if formed artificially. In the real world, ice will not sink regardless of the pressure. According to every water phase diagram ever created, the solid phase of water is never more dense then the liquid phase. Most liquids must go through the liquid phase in order to reach melting/freezing point; water however does not. Even if it was somehow more dense due to compression, it wouldn't sink in the manner displayed. More likely it would remain at the same general depth it was originally at due to water also getting denserit gets deeper.<br/><br/>Some viewers claim that the ice was weighed down with steel and other supports, but if this was the case, the whole iceberg would have sunk earlier. Even so, upon placing a sufficiently heavy object upon ice, the composite object usually tilts or flips over completely, the heavy object sinking while ice remaining afloat. So, the only explanation (along these lines) left is that the ice was stuck to something very heavy beneath it and that the heavy object was kept afloat by static supports extending to the sea floor or by powered propellers. And otherwise, one would have to believe that the ice pack was not made of H2O at all. Being that the movie is a science fiction, it is somewhat appropriate to consider these bizarre speculations. Not until after the Arctic Base is destroyed towards the end of the film. It is also not a mask, but his actual face (made metallic using nanomites). G.I. Joe<br/><br/>Duke (Conrad Hauser) - The lead soldier. He is part of General Hawk's team. Contrary to his original back-story, he isa newcomer to the G.I.Joe team; all Joe rookies are already established, well-trained soldiers.

Yes and no. In Britain the classic 9-inch GI Joe doll was called Action Man. Inspired by the success of Star Wars figures in the early 1980s, a smaller 3-inch version was introduced called "Action Force". A backstory was published in a series of tie-in comics with the terrorist army of Baron Ironblood and his Red Shadows attempting to take over the world and combated by the United Nation's own military unit, Action Force (composed of Z-force infantry company, SAS-force special operations team, Q-force naval squadron and Space Force star fleet). In the mid-1980s, Action Force was taken over by a US company, Baron Ironblood; and the Red Shadows were transformed into Cobra Commander and the Cobra organisation whilst the previously British-dominated Action Force became almost exclusively American. The comics continued to publish stories under the title of Action Force but they were simply the American GI Joe versions with the titles changed. Considerable, for instance in the comics Duke is a First Sergeant whilst in the film he is a Captain. He has no previous history with the Baroness who certainly isn't Cobra Commander's sister. Cobra Commander himself never knew Duke, was never a soldier but a car salesman who turned against America after the failure of his business and death of his brother in the Vietnam War (in the British-Action Force backstory he was Marcus Kassels, the disgraced son of an aristocratic Swiss diplomat and scientific genius who served in the British Army and led a US platoon nicknamed "The Baron's Brigade" in the Korean War before being accused of a massacre of civilians. He fled to Africa where he became a mercenary, fighting in conflicts all over the world before forming his own private terrorist army, the Red Shadows and adopting the alias Baron Ironblood, based on his family's Latin motto of "sanguineo ferris"—"our blood is of iron". After numerous defeats at the hands of Action Force he would abandon the Red Shadows and form the Cobra organisation, adopting the new identity of Cobra Commander).
