Feeling a little nostalgic this morning. Who else grew up in these two awesome decades and what are some of your favourite cartoons you can remember? What are your fondest memories of, and has that changed if you ever attempted watching these same cartoons as an adult?
Last year, I was into watching Batman TAS again and man has that show aged well. It had such a cinematic quality no other 22 minute cartoon could ever achieve and the writing was mature and beyond it's time. I had absolute joy in watching it again.
On the other hand, I had massive shame in revisitting Ninja Turtles, specifically the live action movies. (I'm breaking out of the topic a lil here but whatever...) man was that corny. I could hardly imagine how I'd feel if I watched the cartoon itself. I mean the movie took on a bit of a darker tone and based it a bit more in reality, but it still managed to embarass my intelligence with its cheesiness. HAH get it! Because the Ninja Turtles ate a lot of pizza?! ...yeah see the effect it had on me?
On a more positive note, I bet we could all re-appreciate the awesomeness Animaniacs was if we were to revisit nowadays, knowing full well how jam packed it was with sexual innuendo.
ANYWAYS let the nostalgia begin!
