4. The clutsy ninja
Jinx was another member of the Rawhides, and simply put, she was bad luck and bad news. According to her, everything went wrong when she was around, although Falcon didn’t seem to care.
totally worth the bad luck.
Jinx was a character that stood the test of time and even made it into the first movie as a quick cameo and G.I. Joe Retaliation as a full blown official member of the team. And why is that? Because she debuted in this movie and people loved her. Her figure was just as cool as she was. Only complaint is that rad G.I. Joe logo on her pants wasn’t included on the figure.
Obviously I disagree with this post on multiple levels and at least 4-5 of the 8 points made here … BUT anything GI Joe (Gen 1) gets props from me … love Joe info, opinion, and memories.

You know, as a standalone story its good. Its the erasure of Cobra Commander’s either comic book or imagined backstory that disappointed so many kids. I do enjoy the movie anytime I watch it though
Great list Chad, and I love the new layout (pagination) instead of scrolling forever.
You’re not the only one who thinks it’s the best! haha
COBRALALALALALALA!!!!
As somewhat of a late G.I. Joe bloomer, I reallllly enjoyed this animated movie. The intro is epic and definitely should be the #1 reason here! I know a lot of G.I. Joe #VintagePurists hate a lot about this movie, but I enjoy most of it and you make a great case for several of those points. My only major problem was Cobra Commander becoming a snake. “WASSSSS ONCCCCEE A MANNNNNN”.
I LOVE Nemesis Enforcer. He’s my favorite character to come outta this.
As a huge G.I.Joe ARAH comic reader (who refers to the Hama comics as my default Joe continuity over the cartoons) even I love this movie, and it flies in the face of everything the comic had spent a decade building.
I remember watching it all the time before school when they broke it up into 5 individual episodes. That intro gets you pumped for the day more than a bowl of sugary, marshmallowy cereal!
You make good points though I disagree. Commander was a genius even if he lost. I always after this movie how he could adapt to human society or why did need him to conquer when they could on the Joes themselves. Love movie, but with questions.
This is awesome, glad you took the time to post this insight into the GI Joe movie. You’ll never see mainstream cartoons with this sort of awesomeness these days. too much anti-violence and political correctness.
