Things you like/hate about cartoons - Page 11 - Never Forgotten: a Foster's Home Community

One more thing about censorship: in a version of Hellsing, there are Nazis as the bad guys. BUT! If you really wanna put Nazis in a cartoon/comic/anime, AT LEAST DO IT PROPERLY. In the original version it's fine. But what? In one of the versions, we see them introduce themselves as Nazis, and what do we see in the background and their armbands? Some cute dice-shaped symbol. Come on, you guys, EVERYONE knows what should be there!!!

What gets old for me is cartoons with the same old cliche over and oover again! It's always a good guy, a bad guy, someone either wants to steal jewls or rule the world or kidnap someone from the govornment or the princess or the king-and nothing more. And good LORD, do not let me get started on fighting sequences!

Let's not forget when characters have 30-second conversations as they fall through the air in slow-motion....

Hah yeah, or when they jump at eachother and clash swords in mid-air, and then just kinda stay there as they continue the fight. Helloooooo? Gravity?

Though, my main gripe about cartoons?
That they aren't real

lol

What I like about cartoons? Mostly, actually it's the fact that they're really funny at times, which is what they're made for. They can be varying, and they're fun to watch.

What I don't like? Whatever the hell is happening to 90% of them now. ;_;
And sometimes, I really want that whole Naruto thing to freaking dissapear - TV.com's 'animation' board has become a 'Naruto' board, or even a 'Naruto pairing' board. Also, potty humor is overused. MGP'sAM keeps trying to be funny with the monkey butts, but they really don't know they're being frowned upon I guess... And indeed, those fight scenes are... annoying. Violence is also taking over cartoons too much. And also, as in Foster's, complete 'pain' moments like Imposter's.

Notice which list is huger.

I love cartoons because they can be extremely simple, but still enjoyable. However, at the same time they can be as complex as you want them to be. You can read inbetween the lines all you want and always imagine that there's more to them. I guees that's why there is so much fanfiction based around cartoons.
I also love them because they are escape. Life can be kicking me when I'm down, but cartoons are always there to entertain. Also, in the cartoon world, good always wins.

What I don't like about them: Some of the best ones get cancelled for really stupid reasons. May that never happen to Foster's.

Hello everyone. Just wanted to give a huge thank you for this topic, for we have a school project where we have to analyse forums, and one forum topic in particular.
I chose this one. (Now the teacher wants to watch Foster's

Meh, Naruto is just the new anime flavor of the year. I've seen it time and time again. I'm not a huge fan of it myself. I think a few of the characters are entertaining, but there are too many filler MUST POWER UP episodes to care about sticking to it.

Also I don't get the Gym Partner hate. I know a lot of people hate toilet humor but it's not like this is a new thing. I'd like to point people to Ren and Stimpy as well as Rocko's Modern Life if you want to see grossout humor at its finest.

What I really hate in terms of cartoons are the ones that clearly are just cheap clones of a popular series. Just you wait, Disney will soon try to find a way to copy Foster's, it's inevitable!

I'm really sorry, it will be completely in Hungarian. And it's really long, I don't know if I ever manage to translate it.
