GIJOE WEEK: TOP 10 COBRAS

With the live-action GIJOE movie now in production, I thought I'd devote 1 post per day this week sharing what I want to see on screen.

Note: All characters are to appear as they are below... no major changes! I want to see THESE characters.... not some character with a different look but with the same name. THESE. CHARACTERS. Slight tweaks to improve and "de-silly" (to avoid any "Street Fighter" groaning) is fine... but keep them very close to the original designs. They CAN work in "real life"... I can see it in my head and it's rad! To give you an idea, I've always pictured the feel of "my" movie along the lines of Aliens-Era James Cameron, Blade Runner-Black Hawk Down Ridley Scott, 1st Matrix-Wachowski Bros and Paul "Bourne Ultimatum" Greengrass.

Now onto the list!

TOP 10 COBRAS I WANT TO SEE IN THE MOVIE!!!!

1) COBRA VIPER
2) DESTRO
3) CRIMSON GUARD
4) FIREFLY
5) STORM SHADOW
6) COBRA SOLDIER & OFFICER
7) BARONESS

11) ZARTAN (with Swamp Sled)
12) SNOW SERPENT
13) WILD WEASEL
