Why cartoon Network is moving some shows to HBO+? I wanted to see The Infinity train Again, but I discover is in HBO. Now the Channel only has Teen Titans go, Mao Mao and Thundercats Go. Mao Mao is ok, but, is not as good as the infinity Train. If that thing is an online Platform, would be easier to pirate the shows?

Modern cartoons are so soft compared to the old ones. Things like Courage, Invader Zim(forget the quirkiness and you have a one of the darkest shows on nickelodeon) Ghostbusters New Generation and Ren and Stimpy, wouldn’t never see the light if they came today.

Why Sym-Bionic Titan was cancelled? I heard it’s because of the supposed toys the series have to sell for being on air, but I don’t remember seeing any titan related toy. It’s a shame the show was cancelled. It was way better than adventure time and steven universe. The last thing I heard it was about sony trying to buy the series, but I don’t know if they did it.

>>54220That isn't really true. The only reason why there aren't too many shows with similar edge is because of who the current batch of popular creators are. Network executives and the like have no problem with shows with a bit of edge if they think it will sell. Especially on streaming services where you have tons of fully edgy and unrestrained animated programing for a slightly older audience.

Why the Simpsons are not funny anymore? I tried to watch an episode where some gay friend of the grandpa and he kisses each other, and another where Lisa leave the U.S. It was the most boring episodes I ever seen. Almost all of the episodes are about Lisa being better than anybody on the planet, Homer being a bad person for not paying Lisa´s education at a better school, Bart doing pranks just for the sake of it and Marge being caught by every new trend. Like that time where she disguised herself as a drag queen just for sell tupperware. ¿What happened? This show was one of the funniest ever made, now, I think they make the most bad episodes trying to get cancelled

¿What happened with Klasky-Csupo? The last thing I saw from them was Rugrats Grown up, and that was during the 00s. I heard they were making a movie of real monsters, but it was too dark for kids, and monster inc was released recently, so they decide to make a rugrats movie. And also, what happened with a.k.a. Cartoon, the studio of Danny Antonucci, creator of Ed, Edd n Eddy? The guy is a genius. The show doesn’t have a single episode that doesn’t make laugh. The best comedy cartoon Cartoon Network will ever have.

The only rule here is the board rules.
If you want to talk about a cartoon you like then just talk about it. At worse some jackass that needs attention might pick with you (which you can report) and at best you will find that others share your enjoyment and wish to discus the matter further.

>>55494As someone that actually like Star trek I'm not watching that show.
The level of contempt that the creators of the show have for both classic Star trek and the original fan base is palpable.
I don't need to waste my time on something made by creators who hate me and the things I like. It's like watching a modern artist take a giant shit on a masterpiece by a Renaissance artist that I favor then expect me to praise them and pay them for it.

¿Why a part of the modern cartoons try so hard to be an anime? Look at Steven Universe. Almost everything in the show is an anime reference. The same happens with the owl house. Luz looks like one of the succubi from Magical Doremi, and there’s a character that look like a monster from Junji Ito.
No.55929
>>55925They do so not out of any bad intention.
It is because the creators grew up with anime and love anime so it comes out in their work in ways both large and small.
Most animators were inspired to become animators somehow, and the current front line of animators were inspired by anime.
I think it is more of a good thing then a bad thing because they mean well and they aren't trying to be something it's not. Only taking inspiration and occasionally making small references.

Flapjack had a great team of artists and tons of mixed media going on it, but it's pretty much dismissed as a gross out cartoon from an era of CN everyone ignores.
