    Since Shipwreck is part latino, I think he should be played by Pedro Pascal. For Gung-Ho, there just one guy: Stonecold Steve Austin!

  • @gofannon1943

    Maybe the movie could include scenes from some of the best comic storylines. Like issue #82 showing the Joe selection process (Budo, Repeater & Lightfoot could be swapped for heavier hitters); Special Missions #22 featuring the hostage situation with the bait & switch “smiling man” ending (could be a great first scene); the Borovia circus arc around issue #65; or Zartan’s infiltration of the pit in #48. Tons more but that’s what came to mind first.

Whoever I didn't mention I don't disagree with I just don't really know the actor per se. For Me Cobra Commander could easily be Bradley Cooper.

    For me, rule number 1 is that it needs to look like GI Joe. I want some of the awesome vehicles that that recognizable as GI Joe and Cobra, including the HISS tank ( that actually looks like a HiSS tank), the Wolverine tank, the motorcycle with machine gun sidecar, the Claw, the Trouble Bubbles, and the Mauler. I want the Dreadnocks in it and I want them to have some Road Warrior looking monster vehicles. And I want the characters to look like they are from GI Joe and Cobra and not some Michael Bay movie where every character except Snake-Eyes wears the same tactical battle armor. Use the current Classified figures as a guide. They updated the figures but kept them true in spirit to the originals.

    Since my comments were wiped out because of the glitch, I will suggest Christian Slater as Shipwreck.

Christian Slater. And he still looks good for his age, even if he is in his fifties now.

    Wow great video and some of the post on here are amazing ideas. For the plot line and so forth I like the idea someone posted about keeping it in the 80s timeline would rock. I think it would be cool to go with an opening kind of like pacific rim where it shows the rise of Cobra and how our current military was out gunned out teched and the need for a highly trained special mission force was created and as someone posted showing the selection process this would hold true to real history as how was the Army Ranger and Green Berets were formed during war time. Also please please keep the uniforms and costumes comic and cartoon series correct instead of making us guess on who is what especially on the cobra side I always thought they had the better basic soldier costumes

    Just discovered your channel and have immediately subbed.
    Great topic and while I won't comment on all your picks, a few thoughts: Kurt Russel would be great as Hawk, and John Hamm seems perfect for Flint.
    It's interesting that you picked Joel Kinnaman as Duke (another good pick), because, on a Joe-related note, I was watching Silent Night a few days ago and thought he might make a good unmasked Snake Eyes.
    Sam Elliott would be an excellent Wild Bill, since we're overlooking age, time, etc. For years my pick for Wild Bill has been Allan Jackson. I don't know if he can act, but he certainly has that country singer vibe that relates to Bill's file card.
    Famke Janssen as your Baroness pick is a revelation to me and so obvious (in a good way); not sure how I didn't consider her previously. Again, if we're ignoring time and space, a young Sean Connery has to be Destro. Even Hama himself imagined the gunrunner with Connery's voice.
    I'm right there with you on Andrew Koji for Storm Shadow. He stole the "Snake Eyes" movie.
    Samara Weaving works for Scarlett, but as you noted for Adrianne Palicki being a bit young, that may be true for Weaving too. Lately, I've been a big fan of Rebecca Ferguson as Scarlett. She has the action film and acting skills, and just a bit more age.
    My last pick -- not one in your first movie cast -- and my personal *must* is for Firefly: Vincent Cassel. Plays a great mysterious villain, has the physicality to portray a dangerous character, even a martial artist, if you want to go with Hama's later Marvel run plotline. That's actually what made him my first Joe fantasy cast well over a decade ago. His origin revealed that he is the son of a plantation owner in French Indochina (i.e. Vietnam), so it just came together perfectly, IMO, to have a French actor play the iconic saboteur.
    Apologies for the long-winded post, but it's always fun to nerd out on "grown-up" Joe topics, so thank you for yet another quality outlet to do so!

    • @DestroIsMySpiritAnimal
      @DestroIsMySpiritAnimal  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Oh yes! Back in time, Sean Connery would be the number one all-time pick for Destro. That is great.

    Tunnel Rat was a capable guy. Sniper with his LMG, Medic, and Demo who would be an ideal pairing for her. He was also a bit of a smart-mouth too so he would have had some MA skills. Say Jujitsu and some sort of Universal system like MMA or Krav.

    A few minor additions for characters to tie the storylines together:

    Mainframe and Firewall back at Joe HQ providing tech support. They maybe have five minutes of screen time combined.
    And one more character for the Arashikage storyline:
    Lana Condor as Jinx.

    I'm not against the idea of live a action Joe movie/s or series. I just feel live action takes too much dedication to this scope of production several live action series like all those cop ones(NRD CP or what have you) or like the Netflix Defenders run.

    I agree with most of your casting choices. Joel Kinneman would be great. What I'd really like to see them do with G.I.Joe (which I don't believe would ever happen) would be for them to strike a deal with Disney/ Marvel to adapt some of the Marvel comics story lines. I'd like the tone to be very similar to that of the first three phases of the MCU too. Riding that line between sci-fi and straight-up action movies. I agree, we don't need fantastical elements. What do you think of someone like Chris Pine as Shipwreck?

    • @DestroIsMySpiritAnimal
      @DestroIsMySpiritAnimal  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, they should just stick with the Marvel storyline and only deviate slightly. Like maybe change Stalker, Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow to Iraq war vets rather than Vietnam. Chris Pine could work. I want somebody who can be smarmy.

  • @holonet1
    @holonet1 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Turning GI Joe into a power series, live action, would be a massive under taking. The tone would have to be perfect. All the character's primary & secondary military specialties would have to be showcased during an impactful scene, maybe not always for their introduction. There's already a multitude of races in GI Joe. There's no need for race swapping. Each aspect of their character are part of them. Where they're from, the way they talk & behave, their miltitary branch & history. It needs to reflect the gile cards. The team dynamic is also extremely important. Each team member to jump start the brand, needs a pivotal role to play. I've heard the debate from other Joe channels with dream casting & storyline / plot. Some do feel it should be set in the 80's. Also, that it should star the OG13. Having never read the comics, Idk much about those guys, except for the ones primarily featured in the Sunbow series. Of course, you have your heavy hitters, like Hawk, Snake-Eyes & Scarlet, then Rock&Roll, Stalker & and Breaker. I think Short-fuse, Grunt & Steeler had one appearance in the series. The rest idk at all. My first Joe figure was actually Zap. I was so excited, I tore opened the blister pack as soon as I got in the car & the accessories flew everywhere! Lol The only thing I know about him, is that he's Latino & he's the rpg guy.
    Problem with me is, I haven't kept up with Hollywood these days. I recently watched a few episodes of that Jack Ryan series & thought it was great. I enjoyed Reacher, too. I don't remember any actor's names, though. For Baroness, when I hear Eastern European, I automatically think Russian, Ukrainian & the Cheque Rebublic, or their immediate surrounding neighbors. A lot of the actors I can think of, are too old now. I'm out of the loop. I do agree that Samara Weaving was perfect for Scarlet!! Also, do you want blonde Hawk or brunette Hawk? Edris would be great as Stalker too. Would General Colton be featured as the first model of what the team embodies? Perhaps he hand-picks Abernathy to lead the Joes? What about Admiral Keel-Haul? If he makes an appearance, technically he's the highest ranking Joe. ( Rear admiral ) Will he now take orders from Hawk, who is only a Brigadier General? Even Flint, who is a Warrant Officer, out ranks Duke, who's a First Sgt.
    Whatever they do, it needs to be done right. Hasbro should not have so much control, they've screwed it up in the past, every single time! Lol Perhaps, it's Paramount's fault too. They both have had terrible collaborations.

    Beach Head is one of my favorites, wonder who could play him, And i enjoyed Serpentor over Cobra Commander as leader. And his origin is easy to do in a film/s to take over as new threat for the joes. Cobra Commander's snake-like voice never bothered me honestly. JGL didnt do it well so i wouldnt bother doing that kind of voice. That's my opinion. No-one can play Sgt. Slaughter than Sgt. Slaughter,lol sadly.

    The look of the pit. The underwater scene. And snake eyes in the movies were decent. I loved how they made the trailers all about those super suits and then they were barely in the movie.
    I like your pick of Copley as Zartan (if I heard that right) and I would follow Carrie Coon almost anywhere.
    I think you said you wanted her as cover girl? But she might actually make a better baroness. Jansen is too old at this point.
    Sam Elliot as wild bill is inspired. How about the aging but still beautiful Timothy Olyphant as Hawk.
    Who did you say Bill Bur should be? Frostbite? I’ll take that.

    Instead of a movie, why not just do a live-action series? Film it like Band Of Brothers, or something, but more than just a mini series. But, they still have to have their respective outfits, not just simply military attire. &, NO 'accelerator suits', or whatever. I said it @ the same time as you, about Snake Eyes. It doesn't matter. He wears that mask, & never talks, why over think it? I would, actually, give Joseph Gordon-Levitt another chance @ Cobra Commander. His iriteration wasn't that bad, but seemed bad because the movie around it. I could totally see him doing it well again. My only thought, for Shipwreck, is Pedro Pascal. Can't say why, but once he popped in my head, i can't stop imagining it.🤓
