Cobra Commander being the best character in the G.I. Joe movies for over 12 minutes

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.

I like that Cobra Commanders minions arent afraid of him, or meek around him, theyre just happy to see him.

[Truck_Kun_Driver]

it's cool to see his soldiers not scared of him but happy to see him, like Big Boss.

[Harpagio]

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.

Cobra Commander's outfit in the sequel is the most accurate costume ever.

[dannytheman]

Can we just take a moment to appreciate that Joseph Gordon Levitt took this roll knowing we wouldn't see 60% of his face.

It still entertains me to no end that Cobra Commander created Destro then IMMEDIATELY left him in the prison.

[benjaminkern]

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.

"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

I'm so happy that Cobra Commander's outfit in "Retaliation" is more accurate.

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

[marduk]

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.

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

[Kalebfenoir]

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.

[sweetsillysquid]

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.

[cameronmcleod]

"Take him to the mountains to heal" no need to question why he knows that. I'm all in

[zom]

I never understood how in one line Destro is like "awww yiss check out my face... " to "what have you done to me?" 😂😂

[ad]

Sad that, unlike Transformers films, G.I Joe didn't worked as a movie franchise. I really loved both movies

[VyceofMataMertha]

I don't care what anyone says, the Commander's mask looks so cool in live action.
