I’m sure the new GI Joe will be a gay African Muslim with dreadlocks. Cobra of course will be a white heterosexual Christian male with 1 wife and 4 kids homeschooling.

So, no chacnce they’ll re-enact the scene from one episode where a fat, bearded documentary film-maker (whom I’d swear was modeled after Michael Moore, if the production date didn’t make that extremely unlikely) was making anti-military propaganda and later turned out to be a COBRA agent?

First and foremost, we are not changing what the G.I. Joe brand is about. The name "G.I. Joe" will always be synonymous with bravery and heroism.

Idiots. That would be American bravery and heroism, not just bravery and heroism by itself.

I regret playing with GI Joes. It’s my only gay experience.

Boys should not play with dolls.

I guess things like this are out of the question too.

And what about his girlfriend Barbie??

I hear Rosie O'Donut is looking for work since blowing the MSNBC gig...

But they had guns, so they were cool. :)

I would rather have a GI Joe movie based on the first comic book commercial.
