Why blue large laser?

[Edmon]

Not to make light of your view, but upon reflection I feel it lacks sufficient power to sway those on a different wavelength.

This post leaves me beaming.

Blue Lasers...Red Lasers...Does it matter? 'Knowing' is the most important part when it comes to 'The Battle'.

Where that meme came from?

Red Lasers, blue lasers, pink, purple, yellow and green lasers......whats it matter? I only care if stuff dies on the other end of the beam.

It matters if you want to make your lance FABULOUS.​

It is an older meme that had been floating around the web for some time. It is a G.I.Joe meme. The cartoon G.I.Joe used to have a PSA at the end designed to teach kids lessons (a way to distract up tight parents from the violence ). At the end of the PSA, the kids would often say "Now we know" and a Joe would say "And knowing is half the battle". The Blue and Red laser part is because G.I.Joe and Cobra would shoot red and blue lasers.

I feel so very old knowing that this must be explained to people, rather than being common knowledge.

Lol. That is true.

However, I am sure there are also a lot of people internationally that visit the site and therefore might not be aware that the show ever existed. I sometimes forget that what I post might not translate to everyone, so I didn't mind making the small write-up to explain it.

Oh, and just so some don't think G.I.Joe was just PSAs and no action, here is the rather sweet intro to the TV movie...

Hey, it has blue and red lasers in it, so it sort of fits the conversation.

 

[unclecid]

by proof of this video i conclude that large lasers should be red and small should be blue and HBS got it backwards.

[Heresy]The Action Force theme music was always better than the G.I.Joe music (much more catchy).[/Heresy]

BUT, they did, to my utter astonishment when I could compare the movie intros side-by-side, cut the UK version down by just under two minutes of said intro video off; which baffles me.

Especially as there is a sad arguement to be made that the intro was the best part of that movie and would have made for a better conclusion than, like, the actual movie...

(Sadder is that the movie was the only time I ever saw Action Force in animated form, since it never aired on terrestrial UK telly.)

How do you think people who remember the original 12" GI Joe figurines feel?

Yea, I didn't like the whole Cobra-La aspect to it. I get why they did it (to start a new toy line), but I just never really got into it. Then again, by that time, I was starting to get older too and my tastes in TV were changing.

As a side note: I like watching the YouTube channel Toy Polloi that repairs old toys. He is a UK content creator, and works on these toys, so I do actually recognize the name Action Force when it comes to the brand .

P.S. Sorry for such a tangent...Speaking of cut down intros... Speed Racer's (Mach-Go-Go-Go) Japanese intro was a lot longer, and crazier too. It is interesting what gets cut out when shows get aired in different markets.
