jstbid + starwarsilike: Probably Hasblow was trying to make Storm Shadow as the old Storm Shadow's look, when he joined the Joes in the comics. Which is done very poorly though
Actually, they sorta rushed the Resolute animation, i didn't like the ending too much.
Not to say that the entire animation is bad, its great, mind you, with the modern animation, the PG 13 kills, the Snake Eyes vs Storm Shadow scene, all very nice. But if they wanted to make a stand alone, alternate G.I. Joe animation, they shoulda offed a few more Joes and Cobra ranking officers.
Yeah, the entire animation shows that the Cobra troops is very incapable of doing any harm towards any random Joe or something. Typical storm trooper effect during in the scene with duke and scarlett in th emiddle of drums (which i pressumed to be oil drums, that makes it even more ridiculous), surrounded by the cobra alley vipers (which i don't see too much of a difference since they look like the typical cobra troopers).
Bazooka is the only casualty throughout the animation, while Zartan, Major Bludd K.IA. but Destro and Baroness were arrested (lame).
Firefly made his brief only appearance in 1st episode (lame)
Where the hell are the twins? (lame)
Where the hell is Wild Weasel? (lame)
The elite Crimson Guardsmen are replaced by the Crimson Cobra Troopers (lame)
Yes i do agree not everything is bad. I did enjoy watching it until JOEs like winning it all untouchable.
The animation was great well done reminds me of japanese anime. Snake eyes looks soo cool flying above the water and taking down cobra troopers.
Fighthing against Storm Shadow was nice to watch but i do felt they also given all the good stuff to the good guys.
Overall it was nice to watch but just totally hated when i see like OH MY GOD 30 ++ cobra shooting at 2 men and non get to hit them and
2 guns shooting 30 ++ cobra and got hit most of it? Come onnn i thought cobra vipers + troopers all are well trained soldiers
