Bringing ARAH to Life: The Case for a Faithful Live Action GI Joe Movie

Story by Mitchell Smith Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m talking live action G.I. Joe films. Specifically the characters and their uniforms. I really wanted to see a live action movie where the characters such as Shipwreck, Scarlett, and Doc look and act like the original ARAH cartoon series characters. I would also love to see live action Crimson Guards, Alley Vipers, and Iron Grenadiers, etc, etc! The Marvel movies have been a staple in cinema and television the past 20 + years because they took what people loved about…

Reliving the Nostalgia: A Dive into GI Joe Episode 1 “The Cobra Strikes”

Story by Mitchell Smith Welcome to The Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at GI Joe episode 1 “The Cobra Strikes”, originally airing on September 12, 1983. I can’t remember as an 8 year old if I caught that first episode or not. One thing is for sure it didn’t take long for me to be excited to get out of school and take that hour bus ride home to watch Scooby Doo and GI Joe right after. I just rewatched episode 1 and right from the get go there…

“Unveiling G.I. Joe’s Overlooked Heroine: The Untold Story of Scarlett’s Underrated Journey! Discover the Intriguing History of the Original Female Joe, from 1982 to Today.

Story by Mitchell Smith Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at a G.I. Joe character’s figure that is under appreciated in my opinion. Scarlett was an original 13 and the first female on the Joe team. At the time this was an interesting move having a female character in a toy line aimed at young boys. The character and original figure worked well and Scarlett was an instant fan favorite. Apparently someone up stairs didn’t get the memo and it would take 11 years for Scarlett to…

G.I. JOE INSIDE THE FILECARDS FEATURING ‘SCARLETT’

Today i delve into the filecard of the G.I. Joe character Scarlett. She has “Intelligence” listed as her PMS and “Classified” as SMS. Her filecard also mentions “Counter Intelligence” so that helps define what MOS she would be in, which is a 35L Counter-Intelligence Special Agent. From what I read a few years ago a 35L is not an entry level MOS but reading now on the US Army’s website that has appeared to change. If you go by Scarlett enlisting years ago then she probably would have started out…

Review by @skinnyjoefan Snake Eyes G.I. Joe Origins.
