New Dark Age of Cartoons?

youtube.com/watch?v=Uto-F8l2tVA

Is this the second dark age like the 70s

yes

the new Spider-man is alright

For god's sake. Stop whining about some dark age you manbaby. One of these shows is cancelled, another one is dying, one has been booomerang'd, and the first one isn't even a reboot (and it hasn't been renewed for season 5)

EPIC WIN 4 90s KIDS XD
SMASH THAT REPLY BUTTON AND GIVE ME THOSE (YOU)S IF YOU AGREE

Dubs if Carlos appears in the Magical School Bus Reboot
Trips if Carlos appears in a Gay Porno

>One of these shows is canceled
Which one? Three of them just started and the other three are still in production.

Oh, my bad. I thought the spiderman in OP's list was Ultimate Spiderman.

>and the first one isn't even a reboot
If anyone makes a Sup Forums bingo, "Teen Titans Go! is NOT a reboot" should be placed in the center.

TTG isn't a reboot. Why is that so hard to realize?

>Water Hazard is one of the ten main aliens in the reboot
Name me one person in the world who actually likes Water Hazard. He's a clam that spits water, he's boring and easily the worst of the five elemental aliens. I would have gone with NRG or the jellyfish

>spectacular
>not 90s tas
>not 60s
Nigga what

see Actually fuck it, I'm too lazy for a bingo. Let's make it a drinking game!

If people are going to keep treating it like it is I'm going to correct them. Ignorance is horrid.

How is it not?

But it is. That's the issue.
You're going around "correcting" people not even understanding the definition yourself.

A reboot basically scraps everything the previous show has. That's why shows like NuPPG and NuBen10 fail.

TTG is too inconsistent. One minute they're abridging something, the next they're recalling past events from the 2003 series (Something no reboot has ever done), and in another they're even parodying some other form of Teen Titans. The show is too wacky and inconsistent to be labeled a reboot.

>A reboot basically scraps everything the previous show has.
Absolutely not. In fact that would NOT be a reboot

>In serial fiction, to reboot means to discard all continuity in an established series in order to recreate its characters, timeline and backstory from the beginning.

>kids these days have no clue what else is out there, and will just accept the cartoons they are watching are good because it's what they've seen
>the problem with cartoons today is that they aren't the action fighting plot-driven cartoons that I grew up with!
Hmm.

I mean, I'm not disagreeing with the basic premise of the video. There are a lot of terrible cartoons currently running. And (some) of these action plot cartoons are good. But there are some which were just as terrible, and asking a bunch of publishers to start making action plot cartoons won't suddenly improve the quality. It just means we'll see less shitty lolrandom cartoons and more shitty action plot cartoons.

>t. CalArts student

Aside from the warners, pinkie & the brain (that deservedly got a spinoff) and maybe slappy squirrel, animaniacs was kinda trash

True. It gets overrated now because people remember the good and forget the bad.

But media has this odd habit of cycling, and this isn't the first time that we've had wacky comedy humor dominating cartoons. And it certainly won't be the last. Animaniacs was just the poster child of the last time it happened.

Are you underage? Because you really ought to have known that Wikipedia is NOT a valid source of information.

>But media has this odd habit of cycling
Ah yes, the cycle theory. I'm sure that is quite valid...

Tv kids animation is dead.

Get an ipad.

Okay then, where do you get your sources?

For what purpose? Does it come with exclusive cartoons or something?

(Even if it did, they'd be pirated before that iPad was even released.)

From actual dictionaries.
Oxford:
>Something, especially a series of films or television programmes, that has been restarted or revived.
Cambridge
>a new and interesting version of something such as a film or television show, or the act of making a new and interesting version

Do you see the difference? Or do you need more definitions?

It's probably more a case of the long-lived companies remembering stuff that worked in the past and wanting to give it another shot. "Hey, remember when we aired those wacky cartoons all the time? Let's see if we can do that again."

>Restard
>New
>Scrapped
They're undoing everything from the previous version to create something new for the reboot.

you wot m8?

Fpbp

Just because some companies may have done so in the past doesn't mean they will again. It was a different time.

(BTW does anyone know the name of this fallacy? I have a feeling it's one of the common ones but I can't seem to find what it's called.)

"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." -George Santayana

Every generation seems to think that they are special, unique, or somehow different. But human nature does not change that easily, and things which humans have tended towards in the past are likely to happen again in the same situations. This is doubly true when you have a large corporation intentionally looking at producing something "popular" and has a large back catalog of items which have been proven popular in the past.

I mean, I hope you are aware that fashion has a tendency to cycle every 30-40 years as well. And it shouldn't be surprising why.

Should've known you were gonna post that. Newsflash, user: if history repeated itself, why would there be any historians?

Patterns are largely "observed" in hindsight, because in reality large-scale changes can and do occur.

Kill yourselves, faggots!

>Newsflash, user: if history repeated itself, why would there be any historians?
So that... we can remember the past?

Also, so that we can see the events leading up to a situation and the results afterwards, rather than be caught in the same situation and (frequently) making the same mistakes.

And while you are correct that history does not literally repeat itself in the future, that's not what the quote or anyone else means by that. "History repeats itself" means that we see similar trends occur time and time again, with predictable results each time. It does not mean that we see somebody attempting to unknowingly re-create Looney Toons every 30 years.

Also, you are being hopelessly naive if you think that all these "lolrandom" current cartoons were ones which just-so-happened to be pitched at various studios all around the country, all at the same time. It's far more likely that Warner Bros and whoever else took at look at Adventure Time's success, looked back at how well their last batch of silly random cartoons did, and then hired people to make Teen Titans Go, New Scooby, and most of the rest.

90s tas really doesn't hold up, seriously go rewatch it. Remove the nostalgia and it was a real meh show.

At least it's better than the meiocre kiddie fluff Jim Samples greenlit around the mid 2000s on CN such as Camp Lazlo Squirrel Boy and My Gym Partner's A Monkey

>My Gym Partner's A Monkey
that one was awesome tho

Everyone seems to forget that we had just as many shitty cartoons in any decade. There is not Golden or Dark age, just good cartoons and shitty cartoons.

Everyone who complains about nostalgiafags seems to forget that while every era has shitty cartoons, not every era has good ones!

And nostalgiafags seem to forget that not being capeshit or an angst fest doesn't make the show bad.

Here's a few of my favourites for each decade I have lived in. There is surely more, but those are the ones I remember right now. There is always good cartoons.

user, your lists are jokes compared to this one:
1. W.I.T.C.H. (2004)
2. Teen Titans (2003)
3. Avatar: The Last Airbender (2005)
4. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2003)

6. Samurai Jack (2001)
7. Kim Possible (2002)

Now if only I had a number 10 to add to the list. Point is though, 2000s cartoons are just better.

Don't dies on street sharks

Get cancer and die already please.

>first season of Regular Show
>Over the Gerden Wall
That's the only good cartoons of 10s, though.
Everything else you listen for 10s is terrible.
No, faggot. They're just shit on their own.
