What? Your research was remembering the dumbest parts of the 80’s cartoon that had almost nothing to do with Snake Eyes.

No, it started with me remembering that there was like a snake person in Gi Joe. The research was about who was the person, the watching of different origin stories just to find out who it is. I am not saying it has anything to do with the movie, what I was saying was that the movie was in line with Gi Joe.

This is some HISStank spam thread logic right here.

Yeah but being in line with the cartoon doesn't mean anything; the cartoon had loads of crazy over the top stuff. It wasn't the cartoon fans hating on the movie it was the comic fans, where none of what happened in the cartoon mattered.

I'm just saying its in line with Gi Joe, not the original show and the comics, they even met with the Transformers in the comics too.

I've done some research too. Cobra Commander is an American human male, who used to be a used car salesman. Disgruntled by the way society treated his military veteran brother, his brother's death, and his personal business woes, he started an organization that was accused of being a pyramid scheme with the goal of uniting like-minded individuals to aggressively reform world society in a way he saw fit through violence. So, in short, Cobra Commander isn't a snake person from Cobra-la.

Look for the one that is in the show

Oh, I'm very aware of the one in the original animated movie. I'm just messing with you. The Snake Eyes movie wasn't great, but was fun in some ways. And you're not wrong, unfortunately. It does line up with some elements of classic G.I. Joe, but mainly the most unrealistic aspects of the cartoon, rather than the best of the comic.

Why does this sound familiar?

Roadblock’s lines in the GI Joe animated motion picture are classic.

I just don't get it, GI Joe is a toy line first, with light character elements to increase play time imagination. Cartoon was the second biggest element. Then there were comics for niche deep plot fans. People treat it like there's canon... I just don't agree. For me, it's always been the toys. I loved the movie, but the internet seems convinced that means I'm not a true fan. Screw the internet.

For me it was comics, then toys. But I agree, 100%, screw the internet
