Western Animation - Discuss American, Canadian, and European cartoons here (or just bitch about wokeshit, I guess)

But what about samurai jack season 5 animation?

It was okay for the most part, but I wouldn't compare that and the Rocko trailer in all honesty. Both are pretty different beasts in the grand scheme of things.

Look what dropped today:

Is it me, or is this actually gonna be good?

Considering the state of television animation in recent years, seeing something like this is a sight for sore eyes.

So Nick also released a sneak peek of that new Hey Arnold TV movie:

Like the Rocko film they appear to have largely preserved what made the show what it was.

Nick's laid out its case for why we should want a reboot - and they have delivered.

 

[Kari Kamiya]

Daaaaamn, for all the shit Nickelodeon has gotten, they sure as hell know how to bring back its properties.

I seriously can't wait for the Invader Zim revival sneak peek to drop at this point.

The cartoon community can talk shit about nickelodeon all they want about cancellation and copyright infringement. but the one thing that I will credit to that nickelodeon did something that cartoon network is afraid to do - making decent reboots that aren't empty hollowed cash cows.

Thank goodness they look and act like they should!

Just one more thing to look forward to for me that I actually was proud to watch growing up (besides Rocko.)... And still am, as much as I don't want to admit to it.

Not sure where to leave this at, but it appears we've lost another legend in the cartoon voice world....

God Speed, Rocky!

The jungle movie and the Rocko reboot thing are both good signs for Western Animation, now if only Cartoon Network would stop taking more Steven Universe wannabes...

Someone found the original "Kappa Mikey" MTV pitch pilot.

I'm not really surprised it happened. It was going to. But she nearly made it a full hundred years. There went one of the last links to the golden age.

I think canning Steven Universe would be the first true start to that - encouragement for something truly different can begin, then.

And here's a long overdo ending to a show I'm amazed is still around in any capacity.

Funny the shows that overstay their welcome.

OK. Frankly, I'd thought it had been canceled last year. Hartman's got another show going anyhow.

In any case, here's June Foray's rather legendary appearance on the Howard Stern show in 1987, in which... well, you'll have to hear it for yourself.

Let it run it's course. it will end eventually.

Classic!

EDIT: Thinking of the "Shitty Animated Features" thread here (not to mention the Emoji Movie), somehow I come back to this one, one of those troubled productions yet became something of a childhood classic to some of us, not to mention its pedigree of talent involved.
