G.I. Joe Movies: Story Timeline
This watch order focuses on the connected storyline of the original G.I. Joe duology, following the team's ongoing conflict with Cobra across two films. While Retaliation shifts significantly in tone and features major cast changes, it directly continues plot threads from The Rise of Cobra.
Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins is excluded as it is a standalone reboot with different continuity and characterizations that don't connect to these two films.
