nostalgia time! :)

it's bound to be difficult, but try to narrow your choice down to just one, e.g. cool character you looked-up to.

my choice is transformers, :borg: because the universe was so 'complete'. when the cartoon was over you could get your toys out and continue or make-up your own stories. the comic books (especially the british weekly) were amazing too- brilliant writing and artwork. :D

Geez, why start a new topic when there's one like it still active? Anyway, it's Bugs Bunny and the rest of the WB cartoons (xpt. Pepe le Pew ones - they are all exactly alike).

FYI Christopher_Lee, there wasn't any topic on this active until you decided to resurect a post from almost a year ago. And incidently, the god had posted this before you had replied.

So? People are answering the resurrected topic much more than this one. Anyway, I wasn't lying was I? The topic was still active! You just needed someone to raise it (Harper's call) and bring back to you.

Yes, you were lying. The post was not active (ie. on the first page) until after you replied. Which was after the new post.

Lame.

On topic. Bugs Bunny rules.

I don't see a problem. The topic was active in the sense that it wasn't locked although it hadn't been used for a while. But didn't we establish the other day that resurrecting old topics is OK (hey that was CL as well?!). Besides, I seriously doubt that anyone would have time to see a new topic, search for a similar (almost identical) old topic and think up five cartoons to post in only three minutes!! It must be a coincidence (or otherwise he really hates the god).

Anyway to avoid Tal locking this thread lets keep to the subject: my favorite cartoon is Sharky & Georges. Vive Meropolis!!

coincidence? 4 minutes? impressive searching and typing speeds though CL! ;)

edit/note: CL and i are used to ribbing each other! when we argue don't worry- it's good-naturedly. :heh:

yeah, well.

You only have to apply analytical methods.

You mean you actually did it in three minutes on purpose?!? That's amazing! Actually lets try that...

Ok just tried it. It took me about a minute and a half so it is possible. But that means you have to have noticed the topic the MOMENT it was created, did a search, stumble upon the right topic (it was about the fourth choice when I did a search just now) and think up four cartoons to write up!?

Impressive... Most Impressive

SO!

I see this thread has almost NOTHING to do with cartoons. god and Chris, get a grip, we're all here for fun.:almostmad:

Anyway, I'd have to agree on Transformers, 'twas a bloody good show.

PowerPuff Girls!


no, wait seriously

My favorite cartoon is Dragonballz.

I don't really have too many other paticulars I'll watch anything really. In fact most games look like cartoons to me.

the simpsons versus futurama

futurama is an interesting series. at the moment the vast majority haven't seen too much or aren't as fond of it as the simpsons. however, i believe its first season was far superior to that of the simpsons.

maybe it's only a matter of time before people get to know the characters a little better. also, while the humour is just as good, it might have a more limited scope for jokes. the simpsons is less geeky (being an sf fan though, i like the little in-jokes), pandering to the masses with more 'popular' humour, e.g. identifyable movie references.

there is less chance of running out of ideas for the simpsons, looking around at everyday life is bound to provide fresh material for extracting the urine out of ourselves. with futurama, this is funny in a different sense, showing how society probably won't change despite an advancement in technology.

I like alot of the newer stuff Cowboy Bebop, DBZ, Outlaw Star, ect. But I also love to reminice about some of the old-school, when Count Duckula was mentioned, it reminded me of another cool cartoon made by the same company........DangerMouse!!!!

When I was a kid I loved Transformer and in many ways I still do, especially the comics. I was real sad when it stopped.

As of "new" cartoons I like Oggy and the cockroaches a real good Tommy & Jerry clone. Jonny Bravo is also one supercool dude!

Shark I have a question what would poses you to like Digimon? It's the worst I think I like PoKemon better (now thats bad). Digimon is meant for like 9 year olds.

No, it's true. They are not gonna make anymore Futuramas. I'm hoping Bender will get a spin off cartoon

I can't believe no one mentioned "Pinky and the Brain".

I second all references to Ren & Stimpy and the Simpsons.

I cant believe some of the peoples choices in cartoons. THOSE (not all) cartoons which I shall not mention are truly for kids. No wit whatsoever. Unlike Ren & Stimpy with Eggyolkio. "You killed Eggyolkio you eeeeeeeediot!"

I used to like Chicken Boo on animaniacs. The one when the big chicken dressed up ass (eg) Mr Myagi from the Karate Kid, and no one realised he was a chicken until one smart as guy yelled it out. Then Chicken Boo would have to run away before he was, like, lynched or something.

He wanted to be a human, but could never hide his chickenness from anyone for too long. I thing we can all learn from this.
