Koray Savas 2,251 Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 2) To the young or non-initiated, have you ever watched and compared 80s/90s cartoons to '00 cartoons? Do you genuinely notice any quality difference between them?SpongeBob was the last great cartoon IMO. Kids shows these days are just terrible. I miss the 90s classics.

Ollie 1,059 Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 I would say 40's, 50's and 60's cartoons blow away anything from the 80's & 90's.However, given this new PC world we live in, they may be a bit offensive to some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romão 2,274 Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Batman The Animated Series came out in 1992, and that's a pretty high pinacle in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo 2,453 Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Batman TAS walks the edge between a children's cartoon and animated adult drama. It lacks the swear words and outright killing that a live-action drama would contain, yet its subject matter, violence, and characters are darker than what you typically see in a "cartoon." It's safe enough for some kids, but it's geared towards adults.I'm a child of the 80s, so I look back fondly on such shows as Smurfs, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Gummi Bears, and Duck Tales. But I agree that none of these hold a candle to the Looney Tunes, Merrie Melodies, and similar cartoons of their day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowie 45 Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 I guess it's hard to really compare the different eras of cartoons. I don't watch much of the newer 00s stuff, but as a big fan of the 80s-early 90s stuff and also of the 60s-70s stuff, they're really just different animals altogether, at least IMHO. Different styles of humor, art appeal, story sensibilities etc.From what I've seen of the newer stuff, it seems to be just a whole other level of wackiness -- or indeed anime starting with the popularization of Pokemon -- of which I'm not a fan.

Talk about taking music out of context...Such a terrible video.That other video I posted a little while ago though, with the dubbed voices on the end scene of Return Of The King, had some appropriate Zimmer music.

Wojo 2,453 Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Why not? There are some really bad middle and high school bands out there, and parents and teachers alike who are so high on the self-esteem mentality that they're unable to tell the students they're not any good and need practice for fear of hurting the kids' feelings.It could've been a recording of a practice, too, set to the video.
