For the things that never make any sense! XD

Mary Blair had an interesting style, a cartoon or two like that wouldn't hurt. I don't mind different cartoons having different looks, part of the fun I think.

Maybe it's me thinking that some things work with certain looks. The Flash style works with the Ponies, couldn't see it working on Batman. I don't mind the new Turtles looking a bit darker it works with them and they still retain enough of their look. The new Pound Puppies are unrecognizable. If they're a new batch that could fly better. Perhaps slick harsh animae reboots bother me because the 94 OAV of Gatchaman didn't work compared to the soft look of the series.

So, how long before they get their hands on Jem and the Holograms? And if they do please have it go the route with someone who knows what they're doing.

Hasbro JUST got their copyright back after who knows how long, so they're trying to drum up interest again by airing the old series on the hub... Who knows what they got planned...

I saw Jem listed right after them and near had a heart attack but to my relief it was still the original. So she is up on chopping block after all eh? Sad. She wasn't really a favorite of mine but here's hoping a real fan might get a hold of her.

Here's my rundown of all the remakes I know of.

I liked the new turtles and was a huge fan of the oldschool shell dudes. I was even jumping for joy when they introduced a female turtle. I've given it some thought and the care bears aren't too bad. The new computerized style throws you a bit but its all still exactly the same. Got to give them kudos for that. Thundercats is amazing. Didn't really like any of the new batmans they weren't horrible but couldn't get into them at all. Transformers is awful now. Strawberry shortcake is NOTHING like the original. Same names everything else is completely effed. Now the original ponies cartoons and movies weren't the greatest ever. It was watchable but not the best story lines save that particular one you mentioned. Firefly's Adventure was possibly one of my favorite movies at the time. All cartoons back then were grainy and the colors off but that's just because we have the tech to do it right now and we didn't then. Back then making a cartoon took FOREVER. This is why you only got one like once a week. Not several episodes a day. That is one of the three reasons why the newer show will never appeal to me. Even if the script is better. They are crapped out in a flash animation style that I could do myself on a computer in less than five minutes. And any artstyle looks bad when you do that to it. My husband did make a point to try to watch it this morning. He is in love with the artwork as much as I despise it, My second reason to be put off by the new series... to me that looks alien or derpy not pony. But he couldn't get through two minutes of the show because the animation was so poor. if he had liked it I MIGHT have given it a shot. But now i get to bring him to the darkside! muhaha!

And my third reason was all the figures changing overnight. Everyone knows the only reason that show even exists is to sell the merchandise. Mebbe they are trying or claiming to try to steer it a new direction but with the show done so poorly it's all the more reason for me to give up on ponies. I'll keep my money. And last but certainly not least Its clear from just looking at a photo that the pound puppies are a lost cause. Again only the name and possibly the underground clubhouse remains the same from what I hear. It'll be that same lazy animation that belongs on computer games and they don't ever wear clothing, I suppose that's not a huge thing but now they look like 2 stupid dogs or something. They could change the name and I wouldn't have a gripe. But I think that sort of animation/artstyle should be found on computers only. I expect better from a tv program.

Yet again all of that is my opinion if you like peachy I just feel that if you are going to res-erect something that has such a huge following be prepared to take criticism if it's deemed not up to snuff by fans. Like the green lantern, haven't watched it, heard it blowed so I won't bother. My husband hates every xman movie that was done. He also hated the last airbended but I loved it and thought it could not be more perfect. What bothered him was the races he used. I thought the actors were wonderful. *shrug*

Lols, all I'm saying is, the ponies are not G 3.5. *shudder*

And with the Last Air Bender, I felt they tried to put too much plot into a short amount of time. With a movie adaption, I felt if they took out some plot elements and worked on character development instead it would've at the very least made a better impact since I felt some of the actors got shafted on that front. I was only a casual fan of the TV show so when I watched the movie I was like "Whoa, what happened there? What's the motivation? Why are they reacting like that?"

In other news, debating getting a Lagoona and dyeing her hair to be like Rainbow Dash's.

I can see changing the way they make the ponies because nasty people would do everything to pass a new pony off as an old one and get all the money they can for it. Barbie did enough to make their repros different, can't use the old hole in the foot stands etc.

Wouldn't mind if new Jem dolls came out as long as Hasbro didn't make them, much love to the old Jem/Darci but when you have a ready made 1/6 scale market why ignore it? Yes there are Monsters and Bratz/Moxie with their own scale but look how Liv snuck in to the market. When Jakks Pacific does good, Hara Juku and Disney Fairies, they do good. Hell, Liv would make a great Jem with the wig idea, says she who tracked down a green one to play Pizzaz with...

Makes me wish I had prizes to give out for a contest where dolls do their favorite childhood cartoons.

This made me want to see them in cartoon style. or draw one.

No I'm just kidding.....probably *shot*

OK. Let's see it, then. I'm not being antagonistic here, if you can do it, let's see it.

[thisstrangeforest]

don't have the animator my laptop is shot or I would ^_~

also I could have gotten used to the 3.5 they had kinda babyish faces but better than the current run to me.

So...what you're saying is, you can't? What about using whatever computer you're using to post from?
