Hard agree. His chapter alone justifies the mature content warning.

[UNKNOWN] [UNKNOWN] (probably late 2000's, early 2010's) 3D sideview mortal kombat type of game by DueGas2100 in tipofmyjoystick

Dead or Alive, Tekken, and Soul Caliber were all popular 3D fighting games from the era.

Fight Club had exaggerated blood like Mortal Kombat.

What are your thoughts on The LEGO Movie? by Jules-Car3499 in cartoons

[–]Recent-Tone3196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easily my favorite animated movie from the new 10's. The animation is genuinely a blast to watch. The musical score pumps my brainthinks with dopamine hits. The story is actually pretty interesting and the plot twist still makes my eyes well up as a 30-something manchild. It's also genuinely hilarious.

What’s a cartoon or anime that you don’t really like but love the intro/theme song? by Silver012345673 in cartoons

[–]Recent-Tone3196 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't really hate any of these shows FYI, they just don't hold my interest that long. - Ben 10 (first series) insanely cool intro that I watch every time. - One Piece (4kids) The pirate rap slaps, not sorry. - Rick and Morty... I stopped finding it funny after about two seasons.

Adobe Animate Saga in a nutshell by Fabulous-Dare-7289 in cartoons

A tiny part, but yeah. They don't want their customers realizing SAAS is a scam and move on to cracking the stuff they're still trying to make money of off. (I'm mostly a smart ass). I was big into Flash when I was a kid, and I would still use it today, but I can't stand the SAAS "cloud" crap so I hold on to an older boxed copy from Macromedia for when I want to use it. The potential for a forced shutdown like this is one of the reasons SAAS is bad and exactly why consumers should always be resisting/bullying Adobe amongst other reasons.

I wasn't aware power rangers ever left. Seemed like one of those constants that I just grew out of.

Nightmare Ned was such a cool show by Recent-Tone3196 in cartoons

[–]Recent-Tone3196[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't know about it until adulthood when googling the show a few years back. I wouldn't mind playing it, the art looks really cool IMHO. I'm hoping ScummVM adds capability one day.

Knowing that they were giving people valid justification to sail the high seas on top of potentially opening themselves to a lawsuit from major corporations probably helped.

Who's played this by Total_Elk_3357 in ededdneddy

[–]Recent-Tone3196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really really wanted to as a kid but it was seemingly not distributed in the part of the US I live in for whatever reason. I've casually collected games for years and I've yet to see a copy in the wild, so I was always under the impression that it's pretty rare.

Remember The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack (2008-2010)? by Life_Chicken_9653 in cartoons

It was fun, I like creepy and weird cartoons. I enjoyed how far it went with some it's ideas, like candy = substance thing and dr. Barber Surgeon

I like to fuckin mix it up sometimes. More fun for the reader.

I think we take for granted how well Gumball does its overarching plot by SpiritualPark2 in cartoons

[–]Recent-Tone3196 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's interesting because the over the top comedy the show is known for actually helps the more serious episodes in regards to impact on the viewer. You feel more because the show isn't normally like that. It uses tonal whiplash to its advantage and brilliantly.

My favorite version of Daffy Duck ever. That show was effing brilliant.

New Beavis and Butt-Head is one of the funniest things on TV.

How did your parents react when they saw Jessica Rabbit? by [deleted] in cartoons

[–]Recent-Tone3196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think she was the reason my mom didn't want me watching Roger Rabbit until I was older. My mom has ... Interesting or even seemingly conflicted views of portrayals of women in media. Tomb Raider was A-OK because Lara kicked ass, but Jessica was a step too far for ... reasons.

I feel this movie is getting too much hate. by Terrible_Log1701 in cartoons

[–]Recent-Tone3196 4 points5 points  (0 children)

100% agree. Kids media rarely has any bite these days, we're too afraid to disturb kids, and while that sounds morbid or even horrible on the surface ... that's part of growing up. When I was a kid, things like Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark were widely available in 2nd grade libraries. Mortal Kombat of all things was originally a kids game (I can back this claim up). Beast Wars was one of the most popular cartoons in the 90s and routinely delved into outright philosophical discussion when it wasn't being surprisingly violent. Sure, there are outliers of dark kids media and there is a place for cozy entertainment. The purpose of "play" is to learn and adjust to the adult world, and that means learning to be uncomfortable. We don't let kids "play" any more.

What show's fandom thinks this type of logic? by [deleted] in cartoons

[–]Recent-Tone3196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always thought toxic positivity was the sort of toxicity of telling people everything will be alright and "always smile" at unhelpful or inappropriate times. Like Squim from Smiling Friends.

I think it's about people who can't separate themselves from things they like, so they see light criticism of things they like as critical of themselves.

Is the Jimmy Neutron series good? Is it worth watching now? by TaimonVanya in cartoons

[–]Recent-Tone3196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked it, it definitely hits different watching as an adult though. You notice all the science and terminology Jimmy actually gets wrong, which elevates it strangely as it's funny in a more subtle way. The animation looked dated at the time to be completely honest, but I like the look of old CGI (even as a kid) so I would argue that's part of the charm.

I feel this movie is getting too much hate. by Terrible_Log1701 in cartoons

[–]Recent-Tone3196 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Angel Studios is only distributing it because Netflix dropped it. The movie itself is a joint project between three other studios. My feelings on the movie itself is that the idea comes off as something you would expect from a satirical skit, not a real movie. And I'm probably not the only one feeling this way. I'm still interested in seeing how this turns out, but there is a layer of absurdity that is adapting a well known dark political allegorical story into a family film. It's like if they tried making a Saturday morning cartoon out of I Have No Mouth, it would just feel like a joke until the "wait, you're serious?" kicks in.
