I still own a poor VHS tape that my older brother recorded off TV. Had it as long as I remember. |

Choosing between cake and death is easy. Choosing between GODZILLA VS MEGALON and death is not. |

Why, does the 5 part TV version have more scenes than the DVD? |

Joe: The Movie | | I've never heard of the five-part version having additional scenes (usually it's the opposite way when a feature-length animated movie is cut down to air on television, like Disney's two-hour "Tale Spin" premiere, for instance.) Does the copy you have also feature the standard main title and closing credits sequences from the show? If so, that probably makes it feel longer than the movie since it adds to the running time. |

The end credits aren't, they start, but then cut straight to an episode of GOLDWING. Again, this was taped from TV when I was probably a baby for all I know.

There's even a spot for the Movie disc in the Complete Series set of G.I. Joe. Awesome movie, wish I still had my old VHS tape of it. I had one of the first video releases of it, long before it showed up on TV.

 Member since: 9/3/2009 | | RE: G.I. Joe: The Movie | the 5 parter is rare now as each episode has a live action speech from Sgt. Slaughter at the beginning, maybe even at the ending not sure (can't remember too well going back 20 years) , atleast it did during the original run back in the 80's...
