    Edit
    • Trivia
      The Joe's steal a laserdisc from Cobra the enemy. This is ironic since this movie is the only G.I. Joe episode on laserdisc.
    • Goofs
      Airtight disappears and reappears randomly during the rescue mission for Sgt. Slaughter.
    • Quotes

      Serpentor: There can be no negotiation, you insignificant microbe!

    • Alternate versions
      There are two different versions of the opening episode: The first starts with no background music through about the first 10 minutes (The softball game, the Cobra attack on the base, the arrival of Sgt. Slaughter); the music doesn't start until the Joes are shown doing their running exercises. All other versions (including the Rhino DVD version) include background music starting at the opening titles.

    An Honest Review

    Well, for those of us that remember the comic books more than the cartoon...watching it again is super confusing. And the military ranks seem to make no sense. Duke is in charge, and he's a Master Sergent...and he's in charge over Lieutenant Falcon.

    Falcon is an O2, Duke only an E8, it should really be the other way around, right? Or was it inspired by Oliver Stone's Platoon?

    Who cares, it also has a man dressed as a snake flying around on a regal throne thing...with lazers.

    And in typical GI Joe cartoon fashion no one dies...and that was likely because of the trauma Transformers caused me and so many other children.

    Really, honestly, it's just an absolutely awesome and insanely high quality cartoon that the adult can enjoy for more than nostalgic reasons.
