For those of you who saw the trailer for the new G.I. Joe movie and think it's going to be a disaster to your childhood memories, this is a trailer from the new G.I. Joe: Resolute series which will be featured in 5 minute snippets on Adult Swim. I guess it's being written by comics writer Warren Ellis and it's aimed us ADULTS who grew up with the show in the 1980's.

In all honesty it stays true to the cartoon, is STILL AMERICAN (as it was always SUPPOSED to be and forget the UK Action Man stuff), and it looks damn cool.

Here's the trailer for the show and the first five minutes of part one via youtube.

Wow that was awesome. Episode 2 seems to be up as well, complete with ownage Snake Eyes.

Being from the UK, we never really had GI Joe, but I'm aware of things to do with it.

Ah, not unless you're a girl and have GTS fantasies.

Better to say, what GI Joe can do w/ Barbie . . .  😉

Well we had Action Man and the Ken from Barbie at least, so if there were girls with GTS fantasies they'd probably have been more readily available.

My bad. You guys had "Action Force". Here's a clip from the UK for GI Joe the Movie…

As for the clip of Snake Eyes in the second video, that was just badass.
