Default G.I. Joe to Become Global Task Force in Movie

Quote:
The popular all-American comic-book military man and action figure dating back to the 1940s is undergoing a significant transformation for the Paramount Pictures-distributed "G.I. Joe" film, which begins production in February and is scheduled for release in summer 2009.
No longer will G.I. Joe be a U.S. Special Forces soldier, the "Real American Hero" who, in his glory days, single-handedly won World War II.
In the politically correct new millennium, G.I. Joe bears no resemblance to the original.
Paramount has confirmed that in the movie, the name G.I. Joe will become an acronym for "Global Integrated Joint Operating Entity" — an international, coed task force charged with defeating bad guys. It will no longer stand for government issued, as in issued by the American government.
The studio won't elaborate, saying filming hasn't begun and details are still in the works, but the behind-the-scenes rumblings are that the producers have decided to change the nature of G.I. Joe in order to appeal to a wider, more international audience.

Sad thing is, people won't care and will still pay their money to see it. I for one won't see it.

I hate when the PC aholes get their hooks into something that they have no business meddling in. To me GI Joe will always be our guys kicking our enemy's asses.

has anyone heard of Banned Action Figure series?
[google search]

I haven't watched them yet, cuz they are .mov (I downloaded a complete season) and I just haven't had time.

Its supposed to be really funny and really "extreme" (aka: wangs, skeet, and excessive use of profane words are not uncommon)
You can view em on Metacafe or YouTube.
