The Decline in Quality of Today's Animation (Re: This Cartoon is SHIT)

[Cervos]

So Cartoon Network not so long ago had another one of their fantastic original made for TV movies



It opens up with "One of the most popular videogames of all time"

And I just can't help but laugh. Like, really? That, 'popular'? A game like that would be laughably terribad.

I mean the main antagonist has a literal ass for a head



When I finally thought the nightmare was over, it turns out

There's a TV series for it in 2012. Fuck. I won't give it the dignity of another video.

Anyways yeah cartoons these days suck and this topic is about making fun of them.

[Bluesunnyday]

Really? I actually liked it. Just because the villain looks silly doesn't mean it's automatically a bad movie. Otherwise, Godzilla would never have gotten off the ground. If you had any OTHER reasons for disliking it, then maybe I'd understand more.

EDIT: Though I must admit that the football player's speech is laughably terrible.

[Cervos]

No the movie itself as a whole is p bad.

The dialog especially. Nobody says this and especially when they aren't trying to be clever

[Superfrequency]

Looks p bad dudes

You'd think by now that the people in charge of mass media outlets like Cartoon Network would be people who actually play video games. Maybe in another ten years.

[Varkarrus]

Episodes of TV shows that take place inside of video games always annoyed me because video games are not like that. They don't only have 3 levels, that's like, fucking short.

[Cervos]

The worst part is that they design what is in the story as 'the best videogame ever'

when in reality a game of that quality is laughable.

I mean, look at the name. "Maldark: Conqueror of worlds"

p much the only thing about as bad as this would be the game from Spykids 3D

"Game Over"

Apparently a massively popular videogame, and I can't tell what the fuck this shit is.




Skip to 10:18 for bullshit

"POGO TOADS"

Level 1: Cartoon city with frogs on pogo sticks?


Then headless robot fights


Racing????? Okay what fucking genre is this game supposed to BE.

Also when you get hit you lose lives

And of course being the main character, the little douche survives with half a life which makes TOTAL SENSE



EDIT: I forgot how gratuitous the "Wave the thing in front of the screen for no reason other than to play with the 3D Shit"

[weirdguy]

spy kids movies have actually entertaining people in them

level up just has terrible everything, people have told me that it's okay, but no, it's just not

explained it three times, not explaining it anymore

(long story short: they do not pass the "missed if thrown into a bottomless pit forever" test)

also, don't play the game, it's just a terrible diablo clone that has had almost no playtesting at all

[Cervos]

It's like it has the typical shitty archtypes too

1: Michael Cera impersonator
2: Shitty white boy who makes shitty jokes and thinks he can get with women
3: Black guy who never shuts the hell up
4: the STRONG girl who saves the dudes' asses when it gets kicked

What wikipedia says:

Gaelan Connell as Wyatt: Wyatt is a brilliant techno-geek with perfect grades. He maybe a nerd in the real world, but he's a force to be reckoned with in the game.
Connor Del Rio as Dante: Fearless and impulsive, Dante is the rebel of the group. He's always getting in trouble for pulling pranks and stunts.
Jessie Usher as Lyle: Lyle is the high school quarterback. He's a charming, popular jock who keeps his love of online fantasy games a secret. Loves to shout "Huzza!" when something goes right
Aimee Carrero as Angie: She's smart, spunky and tenacious, but Angie's inquisitive nature sometimes gets her in over her head.


And as i already explained, Maldark is the super shitty stereotypical villain with an ass shaped head

[kholhaus]

He 'maybe' a nerd?

WHO EVEN KNOWS.

It's stuff like this that makes me really uncomfortable in the presence of non-gamers/internet dwellers.

[Cervos]

Hahah I'm p sure it's "May be"

But who knows.

Let's not forget the FANTASTIC quote dialogues said over mic.

"HUZZAH"

"Thats what Im talkin' about, WIZZAAAA"

etc etc etc.

Are you implying Adventure Time and Regular Show aren't quality entertainment?

[Karhs12]

"HUZZAH"

I totally yell HUZZAH when I play games.
But never over mic.
And only on Cave Story.
So yeah.

[Baconlike]

I think he's reffering to the fact that CN will take just about anything.
The movie had a really bad ending too.

First, they make a superweapon, then it shoots a disco ball above Maldark's head, he starts dancing, then gets sucked into the disco ball, then theres a big emotional thing, and they're at a pizza place. Maldark shows up on one of the TVs,and the movie's over.

diamonds in the rough

[Cervos]

Adventure Time and Regular show are Cartoon Network's only redeeming shows as of right now.

It barely balances out other shit like

Almost Naked Animals

and alsFUCK

Okay. This is just too far.

After announcing two new reality live action shows in Unnatural History and Tower Prep, which were both cancelled after their first seasons, Cartoon Network acquired the game show, Hole in the Wall. By the end of 2011, Hole in the Wall and the final two CN Real shows, Destroy Build Destroy and Dude, What Would Happen were removed from Cartoon Network's schedule completely.[29] In 2012, Cartoon Network will add an adaptation of the popular web series The Annoying Orange to it's lineup.[30]

The Annoying Orange to it's lineup

[Quirk]

Wat.

Just...take all of it. All of my wat. Put it in a cart and ship it away.

Changing the title of this topic to something more appropriate

[kholhaus]

This is worse than Fred becoming an actual movie.

Why is it all the stupidest of internet things escape into the real world

why

Because the internet could only handle so much annoying.

Seriously, why does Cartoon Network suck so much all of a sudden?

I don't get it up here, so I have to infer the quality of the station based on stories I hear of it.

None of them give me a good impression of said station.

[Inedible Fungus]

At least Boomerang is still a thing, even if half the time all they show is Smurfs.

[Namboto]

The cartoon network I get over here is fairly decent though, it still shows stuff like PPG and courage.

[williamcll]

Oh cartoon network, what the hell have you become this series of crapsack after I stop using satellite tv.
