We Hate Movies - S6: Animation Damnation #20 - G.I. Joe Part 2

Episode Date: September 30, 2015

On the second and final episode of September's all-request Animation Damnation, the guys head back to Joe Town with an episode of G.I. Joe that explores the exciting highs and tragic lows of Cobra's financial woes! The episode in question is "Cold Slither" which originally aired December 2nd, 1985. Why is Cobra Commander getting financial advice from those weird twins? Did the entire Cobra army think it was a good idea to hit the unemployment line at the same time? And we'll be damned if that terrible song isn't catchy! PLUS: Eric pulls a pod & ditch! Unlock Exclusive Content!: http://www.patreon.com/wehatemovies

I feel like when you start playing the threads that the reality of G. it's not a good place to start like where Cobra gets its funding and how the money works. The logistics of this cartoon organization. Yeah, it's pretty thin. You don't want to

start there because eventually someone's going to be like, what the fuck? Or you have an episode like this where someone tries to explain how some of that works. Yeah, it's like they got like these bankers. I guess these characters have been in other

episode. They must be. They're the Winkle boss twins. I mean, if you invented cobra, you would have invented cobra. Welcome to animation damnation. We're talking about our second trip down G.I. Joe Lane. I'm Andrew Jupin alongside Eric Siska and Steven Sadek. This is the second of our listener requested animation damnation. And Steve, you can go from here on this one. This comes from Aaron, who says, hi guys, love the show. You guys seriously make my Tuesday. you're welcome I think you guys should give G.I. Joe's Season 1 episode 51

Yikes. Quote, Cold Slyther, a watch. Cobra is having some money, some issues regarding its internal cash flow. Maybe it's launching one too many nightclubs into space, question mark. Yeah, that was a waste of money. Cobra decides the best way to solve its money problems is start a heavy metal band

named Cold Slyther and use it to simultaneously raise money and brainwash people. I think you'll have a fun have a fun time with this episode you could use any of the list below to watch because Aaron did the right thing. He gave us links and they came in handy. We appreciate it. We appreciate

that. Sincerely Aaron. So this is Cold Slither original air date of December 2nd, 1985. This, it smells like 1980s. Oh, it sure does. There's cocaine all over this episode. You can't even tell. Eric, you weren't

on the last G.I. Joe episodes. Were you a G.I. Joe kid or not so much. No, not really. I think I had one or two action figures when I was really young. But you melted them with a magnifying glass? Yeah, how'd you know that? I had a feeling. Was your brother, maybe because he was a little older? Yeah, I think it was also kind of just the tail end. Yeah, we never really watched it a ton.

Yeah, I mean, I think just to join you back, anyone who's like, oh my God, QIQ, these guys are going to know all the characters. We know nothing about this show. No, not. Not a darn thing. I do love the laser battles that they're always involved in. It's just tons of lasers. They possess some Star Warsian lasers on this cartoon. The problem with this show is there's so many flip-flopping characters and there's no body count.

They should be like Game of Thrones. We're like, oh my God, star brand's dead. You know what? My God, I can't believe it. Season two, second to last episode, Cobra. commander's head gets cut off. Yes, exactly. How ironic was it when Shipwreck drowned?

Exactly. Because I took a tally in this episode to some of them, because again, I know none of them. But so we had Duke. He's like the main G.I. Joe. Shipwreck, who the voice actor is doing a shitty Jack Nicholson impression. Scarlett, who's one of the Lady G.I. Joe's footloose. Cover girl, who's another Lady G.I. Joe. Ripcord, ace.

And a fan favorite roadblock Makes an appearance in this episode A lot of fan favorites Because they weren't in the last episode We get Cobra Commander for once Oh actually that's true Love him I never I was never really knew the show

But he's got a charisma You know when he speaks Oh it's like a cult leader Oh he's fantastic I love it So the plot of this episode Is the beginning The Joe's foil

Some sort of bizarre crime That Cobra has They have like their Storage of like drugs and paintings, and like, they're like the Nazis at this point. It's a real Nazi cave situation. I was kind of thinking of ISIS while watching this because it's like antiquities or whatever they can't sell, they break.

They're bad dudes. The Joe's, like, destroy everything or like, or stop it. Dude, it's an all-out assault on this cobra compound. I think whatever the white ninja snowblind or what's that guy's name? Oh, I couldn't tell you. couldn't even begin to tell you. The best thing is, like, you know, all the, the cobras are running away, and the white ninja is like, oh, you errand boy. And this other guy's like, talk to you later.

And I'm like, is that guy's name errand boy? Like, is that his cobra name? Knowing the Joeverse, I'm guessing it is. What's amazing, though, is that dude, like, gets off on, like, a motorcycle or whatever. And this ninja just starts running after him in the desert, and you never see him again in the episode. He's still running. He's still trying to track down that guy. Erand Boy's got like a bunch of coffee, like cases on the bag.

He's got like some of Cobra Commander's press shirts. Errand Boy, I specifically requested no tomatoes on this sandwich. You fucked it up again, Aaron, boy. Errant boy, did you buy my mother a nice birthday present? You know she's diabetic, you shitheel. See you later. Broom, broom. That would be great if that was Aaron Boy's catchphrase was,

See you later. She just goes off on a dune buggy. So there's something about it's the cobra's like end of the fiscal year, which they goddamn say fiscal year in this episode. And they're bankrupt as shit. And we actually made light of the whole cobra spent. money thing on the last time we covered this, which was Joe's night out,

with them wasting money, building a fucking space needle, nightclub. Well, it's nice that the show realized they had to address this sometime. You know, guys, we really got to ground this series a little bit here. I mean, Cobra needs to be a little more fiscal responsibility here.

You know what? Cobra Commander needs to take like an economics class or an accounting course or something. Oh shit, we took a bath on that space night club. I was studying voodoo, not voodoo economics. So they're like, how expensive snakes are?

Not very. It's not like buying a gerbil. You know all about that, don't you shipwreck? Yeah, I've got an invoice here for 78,000 snakes. Do we really need $7,000? At the very least. You would think laser guns would be less expensive than bullets, but you have to charge them.

Yeah, no, I got all that here. The energy bills through the roof. By the way, I'm new here at Cobra. My name's invoice. Oh, you're my least favorite invoice. Erad boy, dispatch him. See you later. Oh!

He's always doing that. Yeah, I'm going to need your John Hancock right here. What, did you say John Hancock? No, John Hancock. You go away. You can sign other things. So, cut to, no joke, the entire Cobra Army in line at the unemployment office. Good luck, Cobra Army. You're a terrorist organization. You have no benefits. Past experience? Cobra Command.

Uh-huh, go wait over in the pen with the rest of them. Well, you know, it's not fair because, uh, what, the, uh, Contra's got unemployment benefits. Thanks a lot, Reagan. You're totally right. We help those guys out. Why can't we help out COBRA? We fucking sold guns to the Taliban. Well, actually, I can sell you COBRA, which is unemployment insurance.

But you can't, you don't qualify as COBRA. Oh, the super. sweet and sour irony of it all. Me and my damn pre-existing condition. So he's got the vinklevye there. Vinklevye? Is that the plural of Vinklevoss twins? It's two dudes who are twins and one guy's got a scar

and they finish each other's sentences, which is very creepy. Real creep fest. And they're like, well, you owe us $200 million. $200 million. And that's probably just from this quarter, I would imagine. That's like Elvis debt. Like, that's a real deal hole you dug yourself in. Let's want to see Cobra Commander eating himself to death, shooting TVs.

I sure hope I don't die on the toilet. Why did I buy so many antique cars? Who needs a gold-plated toilet? Get me another peanut. butter and nana sandwich. See you later. Oh, errant boy, you'll be the death of me. Yeah, who needs a golden plate

toilet when you could just take a shit on Destro's head? Dude, that guy's a pervert. Destro? Yeah, like, he's clearly a sub because it's him and the Baroness, and they feature prominently in this episode. He's wearing what would be in the G.I. Joe universe, a Gimp mask. It's a metal mask. It's totally the restraining, he's got his chest all open

and he reports to this fucking high heel lady who's really telling him what's what. Yeah, she's a real gerbil-stomping strong woman. It was kind of working for me. Now, is he hiding a snake person under that mask? Because

I believe Cobra Commander and something was revealed to be a snake person. In the movie, he had a snake face. I don't like the unmasking of people. No, no. Am I remembering that wrong? No, you are remembering it, right? Because I definitely remember seeing him being

revealed as a snake person. The movie, you mean the live action? The live action movie. Oh, I'm talking about an animated. Oh, no. Well, Stephen I tried to get through that first one, and we had like four cases of tall glasses of water, and that wasn't helping anybody. Yeah. Well, you know, but I could have sworn

there was a reveal and he had a snake face, but maybe I was just hallucinating. Either or, there's that other one who's got a snake mask that he wears. Oh, that dude from the last episode. Kind of like Douglas from Charles in charge. Speaking of Max,

masks. Now, is this where the Cobra Commander switches to the sack over his head? Because he does that in his terrorist message towards the end of this episode.

I don't understand like you got this cool metal mask. Yeah, the whole like metal visors. It's got to get hot as hell. Sure. It's the thing.

Here's the thing is I kind of dig the rag on the head too. Both look good. Well, like, when he's got this rag cover in his face up, like he kind of looks like the shredder. He looks like the shredder if he was part of the clan. I'm the grand dragon of the cobra army. That's kind of like a snake.

Dragon, snake. Same thing. We're making cartoons for kids. So basically, Cobra, like, puts up, like, an out-of-business sign. And the Joes are like, all right, Joe's. high-fiving each other. It's like, arrest.

Let's make some arrest. Dude, I love that really, when you break it down, all Cobra had to do was flip the sign from open to closed and the Joe's just backed off. Because these motherfuckers go on vacation. It's like, well, there's nothing left to do

but just sit around and golf and play volleyball. Oh, the 80s. So Cobra Commander like, borrows a million dollars from the mafia? Dude, this hilarious like English mafia I don't know where they're finding these guys but all the goons have

English accents and it's some like weird speak easy jazz club situation he betrays them too of course why would you ever give a guy with a metal mask any money whatsoever but this mobster's like I want to she your face

yeah that's the deal he agrees to the terms of a million dollars plus 400% every week is what cobra commander says Bad Vig right there. Oh, absolutely. He grabs Cobra Commander's face and his face electrocutes him.

Oh, yeah, that's a pretty great security system. Electric face guard. I wish I had that. A lot of people grabbing at your face? More than you'd think. Destro's like, mistress, can I get that upgrade for my mask? No, slave.

And just she squats over him. Stallone glass tables, that Destro? Certainly. This is an explicit show In case you guys were wondering You should have a little E next to the episode there If you're a child from the 80s

Somehow searching the internet For this I'm sorry I don't know They rip this guy off For a million beans And he's like All right let's go to Zaltans

Zartan is the name The two dudes are Zima and Tomax I believe is what I caught Somebody Zartan I think the dude with the Alice Coup Super makeup Zartan. Oh, it's a Zartan?

Yeah. I had, I had, yeah, Zima and Tomex. I think maybe I just wanted a Zima, an ice cold Zima. Whoa, that's not even from the 80s, isn't it? I mean, maybe late 80s. No, that's a 90s thing. 90s thing, yeah. So he's like, all right, you're going to start a heavy metal band.

That's what's all the rage. So the plan is they're going to hire these English soccer hooligans to lip sync a song, that Destro wrote the lyrics to and then Destro's also designed a machine to input subliminal messages that will make everyone who listens to the song want to join the new Cobra Command and apparently work for free

because that's how we're getting out of this money hole and they're also going to sell tons of records so that'll make some money. Selling records and more importantly getting this sick music video made so their band is called Cold Slither which is actually a great metal name. Oh, absolutely.

Yeah, I love it. What would be a cold slither, though? I don't know what that's like. One jazz, Billy Baldwin. Oh, that's sliver. Sliver, yeah. You don't know what a cold slither is? No, I mean, what are we talking here?

Well, we're talking about you get a snake, you put it in that, you put in the ice box. Don't kill it. Just enough. And then you take it out and you put it on your body. Oh, that's why they've never done that? No, I guess I haven't. I thought everyone did that growing up. Just sexy snake handlers.

That's why they have so many snakes at Cobra. That's what... That's a Cobra commander's into. Baron as a Destro could do what they want. And we're always cranking the AC! Little movie trivia in Indiana Jones in the Last Crusade when there's that circus train in the snake pit under it is Cobra Commander masturbator.

Sounds about right. What a delicious seedness. You're lost today, kid. That doesn't mean you have to like it. Oh boy, this will certainly be my ticket to stardom. George, are we rolling? George. Good.

So they make this music video and like Cobra Commander fires the director. There's always shitty director. Like, what kid ever wanted a director joke? You know, he's got the big bullhorn and blobbony, Blas. The same kid that was watching that episode of Duck Tales we talked about a couple months back. Like, who could give a shit? Well, this episode, and it reveals

itself later on, is clearly written by a hundred-year-old man. Like, you know what I mean? Like, somebody with no idea what 1980s heavy metal culture is whatsoever. There's also a part, oh, my favorite part in this episode is when they're, like, taken a long time, and like, this director keeps calling

cut, and the production is way behind schedule. And this dude comes up to Cobber Commander, and he's like, Well, hey, Cobra Commander, we got to stop now because union rules regulate. He's like, oh, I don't give a shit about your union rules and, like, threatens this union guy. Dude, that guy's getting killed by Teamsters. They are coming for Cobra Commander and fucking burying him at giant stadium. Wait, Cobra Commander, mask off.

Scott Walker. Anti-union. Dude, solved it. Cobra Commander 2016. By the way, guys, this is not. Aaron boy, but Eric boy, saying, see you later. Hey, adios, Eric. Talk to you later, Eric. Have a good one. My question about the firing of that director, though, is why didn't Cobra

Commander just choose to direct in the first place? Exactly, why would you need a director? Unless, like, really, you need an editor, which, you know, Cobra Commander doesn't know how to do that. But, like, you know, just telling people what to do, that's his business. He is a professional director, of terrorists, admittedly. But if you can direct an army of terrorists, sure, you can direct a three-minute music video. And you're trying to keep costs down, right? You know what I mean?

Like, come on, Cobra. Guaranteed this production is hemorrhaging money left to be. Well, absolutely. So we cut to a high school where, like, some old maid is, like, really upset because everyone's playing the terrible cold slither song. And let me tell you something. This, the way they draw this woman who's supposed to be like an old crotchety teacher, she's drawn like a goddamn lineback. She really is. She's got shoulders that could cross the Grand Canyon.

And I'm like, what the fuck is going on? I think it's shoreleaf pretending to be mother. I'm going as Norma Bates for Halloween. Mother would like cold slither. She'd call it devil music. And let's just hear it for a sec. Everybody, action. We're cold slither.

We'll be joining us soon. A band of bifers playing our tune. With a lion fist, and a reptile is this, we shall rule. What is that the idiot doing? We've heard it be fall.

We're not going to play. That's both awesome and terrible. Yes. And everyone goes apeshit over this. And I don't know if they're going apeship because of the music, or are they going apeship because of the sublimality of it? Well, no, because as we learn, because the Joes start listening to this song

while they're on break or whatever. Or shore leave, as it were, Andrew. It turns them into zombies to the point where they're walking with their arms outstretched like a mummy. Fucking come on animators. They do that until they get into a car and fucking break out of the Joe compound because apparently Cold Slither is doing a concert

at the stadium tonight in Jotown. Dude, the stadium. It's not Wembley Stadium. It's not Giant Stadium. It's the stadium. But it's clearly like a fucking football stadium, though. This is a massive, like, ACDC, U-2, like, you name it, they're playing this fucking place. You know what? If I'm Cold Slither and I'm the Cobra Commander and you know where the Joes are, you have to know.

They're either West Coast or East Coast or whatever. Right. Go to the opposite coast. You know what I mean? Like, if they're on the East Coast, go to the West Coast. vice versa, just so you know that no Joes are going to be there and no one's going to be on to your shit.

Cross the town line at the very least. Why are you operating in the same city? It doesn't make any sense. What's kind of sad about this whole thing when they take this car and get out of there or whatever, there's just regular like military police dudes at this gate and like they see the car coming and they're like, where are you going, GI Joe's?

And it's a weird thing where I was like, wait, so can the Joe's, like, not leave this compound unless there's a mission? Like, because they're apparently, like, celebrating that Cobra's out of business and they're bored and have nothing to do. So they don't have families to go home to? Like, what is going on? The war is won, right? Yeah. And it's not like we're occupying anything either. We're just kind of hanging out at some base.

Yeah, I mean, Shortleave wants to go home and see his gal. You know what I mean? Sure. It's just like, no, you get back in that box, damn it? It gets even weirder because, like, Scarlett's like, oh, you know, surely footloose and some other guy just Blue Town. Oh, surely footloose and Blue Town just left. You know, I don't know what we're going to do.

And she's like, oh, well, they'll be back tomorrow. And Duke is like, no, those motherfuckers are idiotsies. The word court meetings, we'll serve the, get some MPs and serve them with a court marshal. And I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa. Like, one thing you realize right here is. Is that Duke? He plays by the rules.

Oh, yes. He will see those close friends of his fucking hang before he lets one of his underlings go AWOL. Go to a fucking rock concert. It's an hour. Which makes you think back to the fucking Joe's Night Out episode. How much paperwork had to be filed for those three guys to go to a dance club. Yeah, that was a sanctioned dance that were allowed to go. They did file it out and triplicate.

But you think they're going to get a code red, dude? absolutely oh no it's shoot to kill you need me on that wall but it's only because of duke's insanity that this whole thing gets solved though yes because he's like oh they're going to a concert like MPs go to that stadium and find them arrest those men his best friends that he's bled with oh yeah died cried with anything no they're fucking just

they're soldiers just like the rest of them so these dudes find them in a massive football stadium in like 15 minutes. In a terribly animate. Man, these extras. It's just globs of crap. It's just like a bunch of globs of crap. I would prefer that it was really just like amorphous colors. Yep. Like go that route than like lazily trying to animate extras because you're not doing anything. Nope. It's it's shit. It's absolute shit. And they're waiting for this band to come out and play one song. which is them explaining their name. Yep.

We're cold slither. We're going to slide up your leg or whatever the fuck. We're going to, we're cold slither. We're going to sing cold slither. And then we're out of here. And they're playing it on a loop. Yes. By the way.

Yeah, yeah. All these people are like zombified. And it's like, we're ready to go work for Cobra. But there's no like, Cobra commander being like, okay, we have enough of them. Now let's stop playing the song and start attacking. America, or like, whatever it is. It's just like, more, more loop. Keep singing this

hit tune. And Baroness is like, you now worship the Baroness. And Destro's like, yes, mistress. And they're seeing like what they can get them to do, I think. Yeah, she's like, scrape the floor with your stomachs. And Destro's like,

oh, fuck. Oh, I'm doing it too. I'm not even hypnotized. I'm not even hypnotized. So all these dudes are like getting tired To play in this song over and over again And they're just all of a sudden like Oh, blimey, this is ridiculous

And they just stop playing And the song still, it's a real milly-vanilly moment Yeah, oh yeah It's really heartbreaking for any hardcore Original fans of Cold Slither If those guys hadn't been hypnotized for hours They would be really disappointed But they'd been clearly hypnotized for hours

So they didn't need to be singing that at all And they go backstage, and they're like, oh, great, groupies. And they're like, there's some pretty sexily dressed G.I. Joe ladies. Yeah, there's cartoon cleavage. And there's like, and they, it's, obviously, Scarlet and Cover Girl and some other lady. And a third G.I. Joe girl who I don't think is mentioned by name in the episode. Maureen. Cover Girl.

And Maureen. And they just are beating the shit out of these days. dude. Yeah, they beat the fuck out of them. And they find out where, you know, Cobra Commander's command center is. And Cobra Commander, like, he has control over hundreds of thousands of people in this stadium. Yes. And can't win the day. It's, that's when you just have to be like, get them. Yep. Not once does he fire off in order of any kind? It's completely wasted effort. They break it and he's like, let's escape. It's like, well, dude, that's why you, that's why you bleed money, pal. Exactly. Because you don't fucking follow

through on anything. You put terrible late. lazy leader. You put all your resources into this basket. You have to make sure this goes off no matter what. Yep. No, exactly. Like you, because of the kind of organization that you run Cobra Commander, it every time, every time has to be a till death. We're doing this till I die. Yes. Not, oh no, at the first sight of trouble, we're booking it. That's lazy villain shit. At the first side of three unarmed Joe's. I mean, they could karate kick like anybody else. And I'm sure. they're great at it but like sure you've got to have guns right there's some sort of weird like rifle chainsaw thing oh that's super cool it's pretty like out of fucking evil dead territory this thing which uh one of them i think cover girl uses to like chop the command center in half and it stops

the music track from playing one thing i want to get hit is uh why this episode's written by a hundred year old person is they're at a rock concert a heavy metal rock concert in the mid 80s and they cut to all the people in the concert and they're like supposed to be zombified but they're all like whoa cool wavy gravy gravy man dude one is a g-i-jo who talks like that they're like cosmic i'm like that's not what people say at metal shows dude no and to be fair by the way just to clarify it's more like hair metal yes yeah yeah it's not like metal no no no but like even you know be like oh yeah awesome righteous yeah where are the fucking horns with your fingers like where's any of that Some, like, 90-year-old grandpa was like his grandson was playing, you know, I don't even know, White Snake.

And he's like, what, that sounds like Cobra music to me? Clickety-clack, clickety-clack. Well, say, Brandon gave me inspiration for my latest G.I. Joe's script. Cobra starts a heavy metal music outfit. And since I'm going bankrupt, so will Cobra Commander. Click, click, click, click, click, click, click. clickety-clack right in this fucking dumb script That's the word processor going

That's electronic word process Absolutely Then cut to my favorite part of this episode Which is Duke and the rest of the boys run in After the ladies have it all wrapped up Absolutely And Duke's taking credit for everything And then like this

He still wants blood by the way Oh yeah he's not done with these dudes He's gonna have a fucking talking to Even though they were clearly hypnotized and zombie-fied Exactly One of the things they say is like, oh, they're going to have KP duty for the next three months. I don't know what KP is. I don't want to know.

Yeah. Kitchen something. I have no idea what it could be. But so then, like, this soccer stadium is like, boo! What that great song stuff? And Duke's just like, well, you know everybody. They did, what does he say? They did pay to see a concert.

Cut to the stupidest thing I've ever seen. It's all the G.I. Joe's picking up instruments and playing a cover of the G.I. Joe theme song. What? Do they know what that song is? How could they know what that song? You know what it reminded me of? And it's something I love the show to death, the first 10 seasons. Whenever on The Simpsons, a character hummed the theme song, Bart does it several times.

Nelson Munst did it an episode I watched recently. It's like, where are you getting that from? Is that a hit in Springfield? Are they playing that on KBL? Because we don't often break the fourth wall on that. And certainly not in a show about robots or whatever. Army guys fighting terrorists. No.

No. They don't need a theme song. The show needs a theme song. Yes, exactly. The military outfit itself does not. But they're singing this thing. And it's like the three ladies are singing back up and fucking Duke's just playing bass. And you're like, what am I watching? Jane.

I, uh... And that's... I mean, that's it. The average Joe band plays... Yeah, that's right. The average Joe band. It's like, somehow a curtain comes down and they're like, all right, everybody. This ain't at all what you asked for, but here they are.

The average Joe band. And to be honest, that's a different genre of music. It's a bit more, I don't even know, like, Grand Dan music. Now, this is a respectable theme song. That's, you know, that's how it'll end. average Joe's play an average American tune with nice good American haircuts, not looking like a bunch of girls up there. And the ladies are going to stand in the back and sing backup like they should.

What do you think about that, Brandon? Clickety clack. And that's, I mean, that's the end of this episode. What a stupid thing. Were you embarrassed watching this? More so than the last one. More so than Joe's Night Out. Yeah, I think I must have been to.

But it's just a fun, silly, crazy nightmare, like all of the show is. It's a fever dream every time. Eric? Oh, yeah. Oh, that's interesting. That's a good point you're bringing up. In case you hasn't caught on to the fact that Eric had to leave. So it's Steve and I wrapping out this episode.

But what I've always wondered about animation damnation, and it did happen, actually. It came true already this month. I've wondered if I'm going to watch these cartoons that, like, I, have forgotten about entirely like duck tails, you know, or like some I didn't know really, like G.I. Joe. Am I going to watch something that like turns me on to it? And I have to say, after that car hater episode, I've been watching a lot of speed racer on Hulu. And it's awesome.

It's a fun show. If you have one to two tall glasses of water, you are in a good spot for speed race. Oh, absolutely. And I'm living proof of that. But like this, I'm just like, this is dumber than the last thing. And the last thing was about a nightclub that launched into space. It's dumb as dirt. It's amazing.

And I mean, like, I kind of almost always wish that they could figure out a way to make this concept work. Because I think there's, like, at least cool tropes in here, you know what I mean? Like, the character names are fun. The character designs are fun. Yeah. You need a Game of Thrones style thing where, like, everybody's getting fucking murdered. That's the thing. You need a TVMA, G.I. Joe.

Yes. That's what I think needs to have. happen and honestly that's what they try to do with those live action movies but those fucking dumb things are so self-serious yeah that it's who could possibly be interested in this doesn't everyone die in the beginning of the second one that second one it's like channing tatum a couple other people just get fucking roasted in that movie and and it becomes a dwayne johnson movie i actually think that that second one's better than the first one it would have to be i couldn't finish it would yeah it would almost have to be but as far as cold slither yeah i was

embarrassed watching this episode. I don't know for it done with G.I. Joe. I'll be honest. I've been looking. I'm really happy. Thank you, Aaron, for writing in, because it's always awkward to go back to stuff on this show, but that is in play. We would never do the same, like, you know, movie twice, and

we have movies, but we can go back to this. With animation, damnation, there's so many, there's, this is the 51st episode in the first season. Which that's how you made cartoons, by the way, back in the day. You gave but some Koreans a case of Coca-Cola

and he said, get to work. Maybe that's why they look so shitty, though. Oh, yeah, please. The first ten are fine, but then the rest were produced at gunpoint. That's animation damnation, wrapping up the listener request month of AD. So next month, we'll probably get something spooky on the air right there.

Oh, it's got to be spooky. A.D., so until then, I'm Andrew Jupin. Stephen Seda. Eric Siska. Take it easy. Thank you.
