The Invasion of Cobra Island



Disclaimer: I apologize if this video autoplays, I tried everything, and sometimes it does, and sometimes it doesn't. But you were going to watch it anyway, right? RIGHT?

So, Dedicated Readers, tomorrow is opening day of the new GI Joe movie, The Rise of Cobra. As you may know, it's a huge departure from the GI Joe we all know and love. I, personally, am excited to see it. Stylish Storm Shadow, Snake Eyes with a mouth, Wayans and all.

BUT, in an attempt to satiate the core fanbase of collectors (mostly people like myself who grew up collecting GI Joe), Paramount made this video, entitled "The Invasion of Cobra Island."

It's done with the 25th Anniversary Joe figures, some great backdrops, various computer effects to make their faces move as they talk, and pretty serviceable voice acting.

Plus, it's funny as hell.

It's a great nod to the 80's cartoon series, and I think you should watch...The Invasion of Cobra Island.
