- The pinnacle of all my favorite movie villains who aren't from Transformers.
Here's over 12 minutes worth of Cobra Commander being his awesome self and a badass along with his best scenes, his best quotes, his best reveals, his best moments, his chadness, and overall, Cobra Commander being the best character in the G.I. Joe movies for over 12 minutes.
Here's time stamps of the different parts of his life he experiences in the movies:
00:00 Rexford Lewis
01:10 The Doctor
05:32 Cobra Commander
06:39 Cobra Commander (Prison)
08:45 Cobra Commander (New Suit)
12:27 Bonus from behind the scenes
Yes I know he wasn't even evil yet when he was still Rexford Lewis, and he hadn't even become Cobra Commander yet when he was going as "The Doctor", but it's still the same character so I included it. I also included some of the beginning narration segment of Retaliation with him bc its adds to him, and it's just neat.
And obviously this is just the live action G.I. Joe movies.
Films featured:
-G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra
-G.I. Joe: Retaliation
So, Why this? Because the man deserves some recognition, he's underated, and an underrated movie villain overall.

F the critics, I love both of these movies.
And yes, I've seen the original show. Yes I like it. Yes I like the movies. Yes I love the original Cobra Commander. Yes I love movie Cobra Commander as well. Yes I think he looks fine in The Rise of Cobra.
THIS MOVIES ARE PERFECT
Too bad that Hasbro never let us Have the whole Trilogy, even worse,neither a second season of Renegades & Resolute
True that, Sigma 6 along with Valor vs. Venom were also my favorite guilty pleasures of G.I. Joe as well lol.
You got to admit to cobra commander was literally the only villain to ever conquer the world
I'd have loved a third film either showing the birth of serpentor or the storyline of the animated movie with golobulus and nemesis enforcer could have actually got Sgt slaughter in as a camio
I didn't care much for the film sequel, however, I did really enjoy this movie. I actually saw it twice in theaters.
I like that Cobra Commanders minions arent afraid of him, or meek around him, theyre just happy to see him.
Which makes more sense you'd think a villain syndicate would be more like a cult.
They got high paying job with dental insurance and have 30+ day free vacation on evil island which is basically tropical paradise not to mention recreational torture.
@@shivanshna7618 Evil 9 to 5 HAIL COBRAAAAA
Respect. You're not going to war for someone you hate.
Probably in a meta way representing the fans who finally see a accurate depiction of the character for the first time on screen.
I love that Cobra Commander has a loving family, good friends, and generally a decent life. There's no reason for him to be evil; he just loves kicking puppies because he's Cobra fucking Commander.
He even generously provides the trope’s page image!
Psychopaths are born, not made.

He was the real hero... Really
@@raipe125 cobra commander is the only thing i like about the series
it's cool to see his soldiers not scared of him but happy to see him, like Big Boss.
"That’s Why You’re The Best Commander!"
@@ArthurCallahan899 "Amazing, mission accomplished, they will tell stories about this one, Commander"
"Commander you killed a child... Amazing, mission complete! That right there is why you're the best, Commander! The one and only."
@@CCgivemeawedgyThat feels pretty in-character
It still entertains me to no end that Cobra Commander created Destro then IMMEDIATELY left him in the prison.
Merc'd*
Just like the actor left the sequel behind
To be fair it's a very in character thing for the commander to do.
@@devilred18just as much as Mocking Destro While firing him 😂
“You were overhyped.”
Can we just take a moment to appreciate that Joseph Gordon Levitt took this roll knowing we wouldn't see 60% of his face.
Shades of Karl Urban's "Dredd"
@@kevynhansyn2902 I can totally see Urban watching this movie and saying if people responded well to him as Commander despite not seeing his face I can do Dredd and actually keep the helmet on the whole movie.
@@dannytheman1313 well Rise was in 2009, and Dredd was in 2012, than Retaliation was 2013 (full masked CC), so there's time balance there.
I forgot which came out first actually.
@@kevynhansyn2902 If I remember Retaliation was actually supposed to come out in I think June of 2012 but got pushed back to almost a year later. Still can't remember why it was pushed back.
@@dannytheman1313 reshoots, Channing Tatum got more popular so they wanted more scenes of him
Cobra Commander's outfit in the sequel is the most accurate costume ever.
the entire custome department just knocked it way out of the park. The scene where he's arriving with the ninjas and firefly... just perfect.
Haven't watched the cartoons but i feel like he should have a cobra hood
@@juliandacosta6841 there's another character in the cartoons that is effectively ranked above him that has a cobra hood.
I prefer the sequel this intro was too comedic. It did have potential but went off the rails feeling more made for kids intended to sell toys as was the original cartoon.
@@hamsta11 Serpentor is his name.
"Destro...you're out of the band"
I laugh every time.
Cobra Commander is a great villain.
* He's a competent leader with the respect of his minions
* He has no tragic background to make him a sympathetic villain
* He knows exactly what he is doing and owns his evil actions
* Despite being "Defeated" by the heroes, he's been running loops around everyone for two whole films
If you pay atention, He could escaped & reunited with his Squad, but instead he chosed to burned alive to study nanotech with Mindbender
@@ArcTrooperRod-269some sacrifices must be made
I actually liked how they made Cobra Commander a former member of Duke's team. It shows that there is a deeper connection between the two of them than their rivalry being based solely on the fact that they're the poster boys of their respective groups.
Imagine if they revealed he also had a nickname, I like to think it was Krake like in IDW comics
Then they killed Duke
@@KingBookerT1987 Blame Channing Tatum. I think he begged the producers to kill Duke off.
Eh the way they did it was pretty cliche and lame.
I'm so happy that Cobra Commander's outfit in "Retaliation" is more accurate.
While yes, the Retaliation CC outfit is accurate to the original look, the RoC outfit is actually accurate to another Cobra Commander as well- the then recent Cobra Commander look from IDW. They just gave the mask eye holes + breathing additions, and replaced the sweater with a metal chest plate.
@@Blotzwave I get what you mean, but I just didn't like Cobra Commander's outfit in "Rise of Cobra".
Also love how the respirator sounds like a snake's hiss
Gotta give credits to the designers to modernize Cobra Commander's old design. This new and improve suit of his is awesome and with added snake noise everytime he speaks
HEY! THAT'S TRUE
I never realized that detail, Cobra makes a SSS everytime he talks
@@ArcTrooperRod-269In addition to hisses, you can sometimes here rattles in there as well!
And, in RoC, sometimes his mask makes a noise when it's drawing in oxygen, a noise which sounds slightly like hissing!
The GENIUS of these films is incredible.
And you can see that they really wanted to show the new suit off.
The hiss noise was actually in the cartoon but only in the pilot mini series. Presumably it got cut for time reason.
Yeah, and i love that mask
I loved seeing Cobra Commander in the second movie. All of his henchmen were happy to see him and welcoming him back to the base. You look at the joes and in comparison Cobra had better HR lol
They're probably getting full health care for their families too. If that's the case I'd be happy to see my Evil boss as well
Full health care, proper retirement plan, 30 day paid vacation, proper treatment and payment of employees probably
The Hank Scorpio Management Method.
Dude, Cobra has hidden R&R bunkers on tropical paradise islands that they REGULARLY send troops. I'd get shot at by lasers too if it means me & mine are set for life.
After all, Cobra just wants to dominate the weather...
Treat your men with respect and they will do the same.
Sad that, unlike Transformers films, G.I Joe didn't worked as a movie franchise. I really loved both movies
Why can't Paramount just do G.I. Joe justice? They should have gotten Michael Bay to direct the G.I. Joe movies instead of Transformers.
I mean please thise movie was terrible but it looked good. Action and fights were absolute below mid.
They should’ve not only had brought Stephen sommers to direct the sequel so it could’ve been consistent with rise of cobra, but they should’ve casted Michael Wincott as the voice of cobra commander as his raspy voice works way better than the earth Vader knock off voice. Also, G.I. Joe should just crossover with the alien and predator movie franchise as I want to see cobra use xenomorphs as weapons and joes having to fight off the xenomorphs and the predators that are out to hunt.
@@ultracarterzilla6939 A crossover with G.I. Joe and Alien would totally work, actually. That way, it’d feel a lot like the closest to a live action Contra.
@@josephbach1WILDLY disagree, Movies where great, action and fights where excellent.
I never understood how in one line Destro is like "awww yiss check out my face... " to "what have you done to me?" 😂😂
Probably just the shock setting in.
I think he realized he got injected with the mind control nanotech, he might still be stoked about the metal face
I don't think he was sincerely excited about the metal mask, more like sarcasm and resignation.
Not enough credit is given to Joseph for selling such an over the top characters so well. He really commits but still allows himself to have fun with it.
He understood the assignment.
Great Ray Stevenson line, "We've been missing our Commander.
The Zeus scene redeemed the whole movie. Cobra Commander's edginess is so absurd, it gives you a pure joy.
And not to mention the Brotherhood of Nod vibes.
Damn, I miss me some good 'ol C&C!!
It's good edgy, cause you know he's supposed to be cheesy edgy, it's really great
IN THE NAME OF COBRA!!!
@@wargeneralbonez*THE COMMANDER LIVES!!!*
@@vee-bee-a PEACE THROUGH POWER!!!
He's honestly the only actor who knew what the assignment was. He played his 100% straight. He's a big over the top villain and he owns it. If only the rest of the film was as good as him.
Commanders outfit in Retaliation was literally _perfect_ .
I don't care what anyone says, the Commander's mask looks so cool in live action.
those final clips, he looks just perfect. Props to the costume designers. The whole style of Cobra is spot in these movies.
I completely agree with you. They knocked it out the park.
If only the writing was just as awesome in the 2nd movie....
@@ellugerdelacruz2555 yes it really was a missed opportunity
They really managed to keep it true to the original design, while also modernizing it and making it look good in live action.
A bit like the MCU did. Usually comic/cartoon outfits translate rather badly to live action. There is a good reason why the X-Men movies went with leather instead of blue and yellow spandex. And when they adopted the original outfits, they still went with a more realistic design. Or while Batman's most iconic recent design went for more modern armor than a typical comic outfit.
"Take him to the mountains to heal" no need to question why he knows that. I'm all in
I'm assuming Strom Shadow brought it up sometime while he was still just The Doctor.
Killing Duke and Destro was the dumbiest thing for second part! But he Rock must be main star in any movie;PP
1. DESTRO IS ALIVE, HE JUST WAS KICKED OUT OF THE BAND(& the explotion only destroyed the front room)
2. It wasn't a creative Choice, It was a requitement from Channing Tatum, he didn't wanted to returned & they didn't want to recast him after recasting Cobra, so they just Killing him up(at least he died as a hero saving Flint & Roadblock)
@ArcTrooperRod-269 All that is quite true, as Destro is never shown to be killed on screen. It is actually quite likely he is alive, as though the temperature around him in the prison was rising, the tube he was imprisoned in is programmed to keep the same temperature. With the world's deadliest man, Cobra Commander, having just broken out of the prison, the feds and officers would have been all over the place within the following few minutes or so, finding Destro theoretically within the next hour or so. He may very well be revealed to be alive in the next film, should it ever leave production hell.
And yes, Channing Tatum's contract was only set for two films, so it was an obvious decision to set up, and then focus on a new main lead with Dwayne Johnson as Roadblock and his inherited team consisting of Snake Eyes, Flint, etc.
Duke asked to be killed off
Duke didn't die though. He is seen in the end credits scene.
@Jonathan Harwood oh, so it one of those deaths that doesn't matter.
I just love how in the movies, Cobra Commander is a SUPREMELY effective and successful leader. Even while he was still horribly injured in the first movie, he managed to gather together so many like-minded people and literal corporations under his wing, all without alerting anyone in the outside world. He even let Destro be the 'face' of the public side of things for a good while before revealling that he was the actual leader.
Having said all that, I really really hope no one like that appears in real life... Ever. The destruction they could wreak would be enormous, and there wouldn't be a ultra-lucky Joes with mountains of secret ultratech weapons to match him. That's only in movies.
& all his troops respect him
Love when Cobra & firefly arrive to Zeus instalation ALL the personal says "It's good to have you back"
@Arc Trooper Rod-269 yeah. He's a monster to anyone who opposes him, but to his own troops -- even the Neovipers who he can literally control like terminator robots, but who volunteered FOR that, knowing the result -- he values them. He might not value them enough to not consider them expendable, but... clearly he's connected with them.
Not just in movies. Cartoons, comics, toys, and video games.
There is. Or there will be. He's called Satan.
@Ali Caval I'm trying to stay in reality thanks. I'm more worried about a tinpot dictator or a politician who thinks they deserve to be Emperor unleashing horrific damage to the world with push-button mass destruction weapons.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt does not get enough credit for his performance in the first movie.
& in the RoC game too
Indeed. He played a very convincing role
12:41 honestly that was pretty spot on. I get why they didn’t go with the high pitched voice, but I would’ve loved to see Joseph Gordon-Levitt do it for the actual movie.
Unlike modern superhero movies where they remove their headgear every 5 seconds. Quite irritating.
Hearing Joseph Gordon-Levitt emulating Chris Latta just for a split second made me smile
Cuz that voice is associated with Cobra being a dumbass like in the show whereas in the comics he was a more serious threat?
I’ve done the voice before and it messes with your throat.
The most unfortunate part to me is that the design for Cobra commander looked amazing. Really was hoping we’d get a third movie so we could have more scenes with it.
Even when angry, Duke always looks like he's trying not to smile like he's about to laugh
awful acting from tatum - he's improved over the years
Interesting how in the cartoons the main bad guys always have higher pitched, crazy voices but in live adaptation they always have these deeper modulated sounding voices lol. Sounds good don't get me wrong and I enjoyed the movies(except that last one from a few years ago lol) I just find it hilarious how Cobra Commander had a high ass voice in the show and a deep ass one in the movie 🤣
Tbh when he was the doctor, it gave me the cartoon vibes
@@ajlemuel969 Oh yeah a little bit especially when he took off the mask with that little warped giggle lol
They should have honestly kept that voice.
The doctor voice yeah lol it was a little higher pitched and demented sounding haha
the high pitched voice is phenomenal. Dude did such a good voice with cobra and starscream
Maybe world's first Villain whose soldiers/henchmen love him rather than fearing him🤣🤣💪👏👏
That's what makes him such a Cool Bad Ass
9:03 love how much this guy loves his job
This is probably the closest we will ever get to a Command and Conquer live action movie.
Kane's vibes were strong in 2nd movie. Lovely.
I was thinking that myself.
Who cares about C&C, we talking G.I.Joe here...
@@ambrashaderach3907
the GAMERS care
@@marduk1734 damn straight.
Cobra Commander is just straight evil. He literally has no reason to be this way. He survived the bombing and came back and thought "You know what? I want to conquer the world." I could have just come home, sure he's scarred up but his family and friends wouldn't have cared if he was.
In the comics its even funnier, being a car salesman for years until he thought of the idea of starting Cobra, somehow creating a terrorist organization large enough and dangerous enough to take the whole world to his feet.
🤣🤣🤣
To be fair in the comics, his brother died and since nobody took action, he started up COBRA.
Still bonkers though.
@@miragebangbravern2024 In the comics he blames snake eyes for his death too since the accident he was in was with snake eye's family.
10:09
The way he says that is disturbing, as you’re reminded of the young, optimistic, and good hearted soldier,
And seeing how twisted and psychotic he became.
By god that helmet is fucking awesome!
Man cobra commander was so damn cool in these movies. It's a shame these movies didn't succeed. I wanted to see more of him.
You know what I find absolutely hilarious?
Rise of Cobra: Meet James McCullen. The head of M.A.R.S. industries. *Face* of Cobra and pretend main villain. Cobra Commander has been using him for his resources, money and biding his time to stab him in the back and reveal that he is the true mastermind. He eventually does turning McCullen into his right hand man Destro. He was his puppet metaphorically before but now he is his puppet literally. Complete with an electro collar.
Retaliation: “Destro… you’re out of the band.”
Like.. seriously 😂
Yeah, would’ve loved to see how he uses him for his Assets.
I don’t think the actor wanted to come back.
@@TKinfinity01 Then recast him don’t waste the character.
@@godofevil9468 he has metal for a face, just change it a little bit so it doesn't look like the first actor
@@TKinfinity01 They recasted Cobra Commander, no reason why they can't recast Destro too
When vader walks, his minions would just be afraid and move back
when CC walks, the guy was casually talking to him and saluting him
Cobra Commander must be such a cool boss. 🤗

Much respect for the Latta-esque "COBRA!" at the end there
I'll stand by RoC's design of Cobra Commander. His partially-transparent mask looks cool in its own right, and he came across as a more modern day Darth Vader with his deep voice and breathing apparatus (6:02). Plus he had a nice uniformity with him, Destro and their henchmen all being chrome-domed lol. (Also I just noticed his left eye looks blinded, which would explain why he had the "monocle" as the Doctor.)
*12:12** WHAT MOST PISSES ME OFF IS: THAT'S THE CLOSEST THING WE'LL EVER HAVE TO A MATCH BETWEEN COBRA & SNAKE*
_at least outside of the comics_
At least we still got a little Snake Eyes and Cobra Commander action, like it's a challenge to make it happen seeing how Snake Eyes is a master fighter, meanwhile Cobra Commander is more of a master planner, though he does have some fighting skills.
Snake eyes would have no diffed him
@@therealbnasty3719Cobra Commander With The Scarecrow Toxin on his Cheek Pocket: _OH, I DON'T THINK SO_
@@ArcTrooperRod-269 yea then he’s fd
0:14 the pacing and instant cut to a firefight is hilarious to me because we miss him making the promise to her 😂
That's not how it's cut in the movie, just my own editing 😅
W/ the breathing apparatus and monocle it’s a good fantasy villain voice, when Rex reveals his identity to Duke he sounds very close to Christopher Collins’s Cobra Commander and when he says, “You will call me Commander.”, moving forward he sounds like Author Burghardt’s Destro.
I like this version of Cobra Commander he is more like Darth Vader with his respirator and deeper voice
Agreed
But, can I like both the cartoon and live action versions?
1:40 This line sums up the psychopathic character
Peak Writing
Retaliation was a great movie, and the fact that it's been trending lately proves it.
My little brother, after he graduated, from highscool: "12:06"
Literally the best part to those movies. Honestly they did not give this character enough screen time.
*Commits Genocide against the British*
*Refuses to elaborate further*

RIP Ray Stevenson, I love these movies.
Fun fact: originally in retaliation firefly wasn't going to wear his camo mask but ray Stevenson decided to wear it in some scenes.
@@zacglover3345 Thanks for the info my dude. I honestly don’t ever remember Firefly taking his mask off in the comics. I could be mistaken though
12:42
Imagine these movies with that voice. Marvelous.
He just gets more impressive the more masked he gets. I really don't feel much for "Rex Lewis"... but the more he loses himself into becoming Cobra Commander...it just feels better for him, as a character. Who he is, or was, under the mask no longer matters. He IS Cobra personified. Anything before that is just kinda... bleh.
So I guess you could say nobody cared who he was… before he put on the mask?
@@CrusadiaIXIt doesn't matter who he was. What mattered was his plans.
Very cool! Storm Shadow was my favorite. It's been years since I've watched the first one and haven't seen the others but Joseph Gordon Levitt is a good actor. I'm glad he got his full helmet in the sequel too
Man, I LOVE Storm Shadow! He's great in the movies as well, his actor was very passionate about the part. Yeah Really loved Levitt in the role, you can tell he's having fun with it. When first presented with it, he saw the costume he would wear, thought it was the coolest thing ever, and signed on immediately. Seriously, that's all it took.
The silver mask in the first movie was cool, but same, I was so happy to see the new, cartoon inspired helmet in the sequel.
Thanks for watching oc!
@@Blotzwave where is Serpentor The Strongest Villain?
@@rheubhenncabizares9912 Serpentor is just downright silly. He's arguably one of the most difficult characters to adapt, based on his look and origins. That's why he's been excluded from all G.I. Joe since the 80's with a few here and there exceptions, such as some comics, and being represented as a giant snake in G.I. Joe Renegades.
I didn't even know that was him! Nice infoy
RIP Ray Stevenson as Firefly
People were (rightfully) angry with Cobra Commander's design in the first movie. But his design in the second movie is just pure, beautiful, badassery!
Even if you never read the comics or watched the 2D series, you gotta love it
People just didn't understand what the first design was going for, they took the most recent Cobra Commander design at the time, the idw one, and have him eye holes in reference to his og hooded look.
Second time around they went with something more obvious 😆
I love when adaptation movies that are sometimes, if not fully mediocre, are able to capture some of the characters in their best forms. The aced the commander and then some in Retaliation.
WE CAN NOW STATE THAT RETALIATION IS A DECADE OLD
*10 WHOLE YEARS*
😢
I remember when it was released. Ten years already? Can we please turn back 10 years?
I gotta say JGL really shine as Cobra Com.
Bro went from nothing to being the coldest dude in the movies
One of the few instances where the villains are basically owning the heroes
For all the rough patches in these movies, the cobra test part to show of the nano tech is so well conceived and executed. Such perfectly, delicious villainy on display.
Main villain many times written better than anyone else.
Joseph’s “Cobra!” yell at the end! So Latta-esque! Loved it!
Rewatching this it looks like Cobra Commander had been secretly taking over Destro's groups the whole time.
No me digas, JEJEJE😊
Yep. Destro's tech was CC's work and it didn't take much for him to 'usurp' Destro who was mean to be the 'face' of the organization until the time is right. Not to mention Storm Shadow and Firefly went to break CC out and him alone, not Destro. They also refer him as their commander immediately, implying they've been working for him for a while prior to the first film. If anything, it was clear CC was the boss since day 1, but he let Destro took the stage where he gathered resource and like-mind individuals into Cobra. The fact he didn't seem to bother getting caught and imprisoned was because only his front, Destro's arms deal company, that took the hit.
Out of all G.I. Joe variants this version of Cobra Commander is more badass in my opinion. Especially, the voice.
He's such a metal gear villain lmao
12:43 when you finally manage to destroy G.I Joe and take over the world
the Helmet and Dressing sense in the second part of Cobra commander is just perfect
The next time we see Cobra Commander I want him to keep the suit he had in Retaliation but I want Steve Blum aka Starscream to voice him.
Also I want Julian McMahon to play Destro and have him and the Commander bicker like they do in the original cartoon.
Steve Blum, AKA 90% of people in every animated show or video game ever.
Makes sense the original voice actor of starscream also voiced cobra commander
They'll probably just get an actor that can do a better voice.
No, no overdubbing, shit is corny and only really worked for Darth Vader.
Thanks for this wicked compilation, he is literally the best fucking character out of both films and the entire franchise, When we see the Doctor become Cobra Commander for the first time, it was a total shock and awesome surprise, His role is so amazing in both films !!!
I gotta hand it to Zartan, the nuclear gamble was probably the most ballsy and badass way to force nuclear disarmament
Wouildn't work in reality, though.
One thing that this movie did right was actually making Cobra Commander Threatening and competent.
If you felt stupid, just remember
HASBRO CANCELLED G.I. JOE 3 & A 2° SEASON FOR RESOLUTE & RENEGADES to instead give us 15 Equestria Girls Movies
They chose……….poorly.
You neglected to mentioned how they butchered Snake Eyes
Bruh moment
So...I see they've chosen death.
The worst part is they didn't even give an ending to the Equestria Girls movies. They couldn't even commit to their folly.
3:51
You can just feel through the screen, the betrayal and shock from Chaning Tatum. Man, what an Oscar worthy performance
Cobra Commander has always been a person i rooted for
JGL is actually great playing a villain.
I wish they gave him the classic voice. Part of the reason why Cobra Commander is so iconic is because he's an intimidating supervillain woth the squeekiest voice you'll ever hear.
The classic voice was actually considered, but the actor of Cobra Commander didn't want to do it, because he felt it would be "cheap" just to copy the voice work of another actor, especially one who passed away of heart issues.
@@Blotzwave I didn't know that, that's pretty sad.
I am so happy to see people loved those movies here. Even if they were different than the cartoons, you could feel it was GiJOE.
Cobra Commander's plans and ideals in these movies are actually quite interesting. The way he mocks his traditional american funeral, the waving flag etc. He's done with this country bollocks and just wants the world under one rule with enforced peace. His rule.
I love these movies and it still blows my mind how well I didn't know it was Joseph Gorden Levitt behind the mask until the twist.
The outfit in Retaliation was perfect. If only he had a sword like in resolute, that would've been the icing on the cake.
I am glad GI Joe is coming back
This feels like a Red Alert Movie than anything if were being honest
That's one of the sickest villain outfits
Wait, Joseph Gordon Levitt was Cobra Commander in the old G.I. Joe movies? Damn, he was true to the character, I didn't know the guy played a villain. And this was before Dark Knight Rises, so a villain became a hero later.
Paramount is setting up a Transformers/G.I. Joe shared universe,(something they wanted to do years ago, but Bay directed Transformers back then), they might as well have Joseph back in the role. Especially with effects being far better today.
this movie and its sequel were awesome. I love how they take this more "realistic" approach and the whole sci-fi technology along with its usage was amazing as well. the Nanite warheads and how Dr. Cobra used them led for a compelling villain. also gotta love how all this ridiculous shit like an underground base in the desert or under the arctic is played straight and it makes this movie great. And how could I forget the sounds weapons and best of all: The Baroness
Dude such a underrated performance
100 percent agree. Cobra commander was my fav part of these movies
8:22 RIP Ray Stevenson AKA Firefly 😞
*hiss* “I want it all”
I’m praying that with Rise of The Beasts confirming GI Joe with the new transformers movies, we get some amazing cobra commander moments
Oh, that Cobra Commander. He can be a real rascal sometimes
"Destro, you're out of the band"
Iconic
Cobra time
I honestly never thought there’s anything wrong with these movies in particular
I was surprised when Destro was revealed. I thought he would be Cobra. Destro should've been bigger and menacing.
RIP Ray Stevenson
Ecclestone calling someone else "Doctor" is a comedy
damn i never saw those movies before, it looks pretty good actually
