After what seems like forever, G.I. Joe: Resolute will wrap up its long and rocky road tonight, one way or another. Airing on Adult Swim tonight at midnight as a full 60 minute feature, AdultSwim.com promises the episodes will be online shortly thereafter.
The final ten minutes aired on Teletoon in Canada last night, and of course, the footage has already made the YouTube rounds. To avoid spoilers, I’ll embed the video after the break.
Honestly, the finale didn’t rock my world. I always had a suspicion that the 60 minute time limit and “short burst” episodes might end up hurting the “flow”, and I think I was right. The final culmination of this story didn’t feel very final, and didn’t have a real “impact”, and I think most of that is due to the limitations of episode length.
Still, I’m thrilled to finally see the series air in its entirety, and best of all, this animated feature has led the way to some fantastic looking toys. At any rate, watch Adult Swim tonight, check out adultswim.com on Monday, show your support for Resolute! Do whatever you need to do… write your congressman, harass Hasbro, pester Cartoon Network. Let them know how much you loved Resolute and how much you demand to see more. It wouldn’t hurt to watch the footage on Adult Swim.com a few thousand times as well. 😉
Over at AcToys.net, acmilan8540 has posted some more pictures of the unreleased 14th wave of G.I. Joe 25th Anniversary figures, and has included some great looking loose pictures of the Resolute Storm Shadow. Check out the images mirrored below, and big thanks to HissCommander of the Terror Drome for the heads up.
For our Canadian brothers and sisters, you guys get a 24 hour advanced preview of the final ten minutes of Resolute tonight on TeleToon Detour. I’ve seen everyone focusing on the Adult Swim airing tomorrow at midnight, but for Joefans to the North, let’s not forget you guys get to see it early.
11:15pm tonight, Resolute will rock Canada, and then it’ll travel down South tomorrow and finish the job. I’m looking forward to it.
Well, the full run of Webisodes have aired, and they’re all up on YouTube now. And if you check out my customized playlist below, they’ll play all in order in one shot! Enjoy! 😉
Just as the 10-part Webisodes wrapped up, HDRoom.com has received some images from the Resolute final set to air on Adult Swim this weekend (Saturday at Midnight to be exact).
