Joedios is keeping me into GI Joe at the moment. I've been taking more photos lately, working on a longer story. I may never post them. It may never see the light of day, but I enjoy taking the photos and this site gives me a place to let people who will appreciate it see them. And I love seeing what others are doing with their stuff.
I don't want Hasbro to attempt another cartoon. I don't think the studios of today are capable of producing a cartoon as good as the 1980's cartoon.
The movie may be cool. We've got to all remember that a lot of what we are hearing about the movie is unsubstantiated rumor that was started to gauge our reaction.
The 25th stuff has no appeal to me. Hasbro is pushing crap and they know it. What kills me is that kids and adults are eating it up like it was ice cream. Hasbro recognizes that the golden age was 1982-1986. They said so in the original announcement regarding the 25th stuff. Sculpting technology had come a long way by the time the line died in 1995. Why did Hasbro feel the need to jump to yet another and inferior figure construction? I just don't get it.
Hasbro's approach to GI Joe compared to how they handle Star Wars or Transformers tells you what they really think of us, what what they want to succeed.
