Title: The Nostalgia thread.
Post by: Grandy on September 21, 2008, 02:24:51 AM
 Just post anything, YouTube videos, book covers, music lyrics, that is nostalgic to you and could be to others as well, and perhaps discuss about them.

 As for starters,

Oh jeez, I remember that. Never really liked it though...

How about this one?

Original Megaman Cartoon Opening (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=akJygsSXcjw)

At the time, I was obsessed with the original megaman games, and when I learned of the show, I was psyched...

"Ah, the days of my youth, just like the scent of fresh lemons, you see..."

Oh, yeah, I remember that one. I remember Mega had the power to copy the abilities by touching other people chests, defeating them or not. But that's pretty much all I remember of it.

Anyone else think a whole lot of the cartoons of today suck ***

The 90's were so much better
As well as the early 2000's
But wow
Flapjack, George of the Jungle...eugh
Title: Re: The Nostalgia thread.
Post by: ZeroKirbyX on September 21, 2008, 06:53:35 PM
**** you guys. I love Chowder and the Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack. Of course, they're all I've liked in the last few years. I did like Time Squad and the early Grim and Evil.
Title: Re: The Nostalgia thread.
Post by: fruckert on September 21, 2008, 07:10:15 PM
I love chowder

I just think flapjack sucks
And if anyone here think's "Total Drama Island" is good, you shall be shot in the face with a shotgun

Time squad kicked ***, and Grim Adventures rocks
Evil Con Carne...not so much, but it's still awesome
Title: Re: The Nostalgia thread.
Post by: Revolution911 on September 21, 2008, 07:17:54 PM
Flapjack is millions of times funnier than Chowder.  And I love chowder.

Thats ridiculous dude.  The guy who made adventure time works on Flapjack. 

Cartoons never got worse.  You got older.  You werent as easily impressed.  People seem to only remember the GOOD cartoons from the 90's, while completely disregarding the HUGE amount of complete **** that came with it.


ALSO ADVENTURE TIME JUST GOT PICKED UP FOR A FULL SERIES BY CARTOON NETWORK.
Cartoon Network is so awesome.  I wish Spongebob came on CN.  Then it'd be perfect.  Also if Avatar came on CN, oh god how ****ing awesome.

IN B4 "BLAHBLAHBLAHAVATAR IS A SHITTY WANNABE ANIME"  If you think that you should have your eyes ripped out.  Amazing animation.  Well written. Compelling story.  AN ACTUAL SERIES(by that I mean, doesnt just run on for 49236589728957129 episodes).  The only complaint I have with it is the ending was a bit too happy. 
Title: Re: The Nostalgia thread.
Post by: fruckert on September 21, 2008, 07:58:29 PM
I just think flapjack's creepy
*Shudder*
It does have it's moments, it's just a tad bit creepy

And yes, the 90's did have total ****, and that's the reason why we think about the good ones

BTW, wtf is adventure time?

And another note (god this post has horrible organization), does anyone miss Ed, Edd & Eddy?
Favorite cartoon of all time
They need to finish that movie they're making, so they can start airing the series again
Title: Re: The Nostalgia thread.
Post by: ZeroKirbyX on September 21, 2008, 08:05:20 PM
I really enjoyed Avatar for awhile. Season one had enough "Whats gonna happen next?" to keep you watching, and the finale was ****ing incredible. For me, season two just took too long to go anywhere. It seemed rather droll compared to what I had just seen from the finale. Season three picked it up though so its all good.

Also, ADVENTURE TIME IS GOING TO HAVE ITS OWN SHOW? THIS IS INCREDIBLE.

Flapjack is awesome because it does have that type of dark, morbid humor to it. If it wasn't as creepy as it was, it wouldn't be worth it.
Title: Re: The Nostalgia thread.
Post by: Revolution911 on September 21, 2008, 08:27:39 PM
Flapjack is amazing in that its TERRIFYING.
The punsy epsiode was HORRIFYING.  Even normal Punsy is just...JESUS CHRIST.  But thats why its so awesome.  Also, the art is just amazing in it.  Really creative and diverse stuff.

TODAYS LESSON WILL BE....FFEEEAAAARRRRRR.

Ed, Edd & Eddy was the ****. 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVNEJQfl46M

The final fights in avatar were just amazingly well done.  Idk though I wish it didnt all end so jolly.  Maybe if like, Sokka had died protecting Toph or Katara had died fighting Azula.  I wanted a death.  Call me morbid, but it would've made everything real bittersweet.  I wanted their victory to take some sacrifice.  It could have been such a tearjerker :(.  Crazy Azula is sexy. 
Title: Re: The Nostalgia thread.
Post by: ZeroKirbyX on September 21, 2008, 08:37:41 PM
Death of a main character is too frequently used to show that a situation is deadly. Instead of just making it really well, they figure if they just kill character A, everyone knows its bad.

Surgery. Get your surgery here. Haircuts.

I dont like watching a show and knowing in the back of my head at the end of the episode they'll all come out fine.
Thats way too common in shows. 

Not enough characters die in cartoons, considering the seriousness of the situations in some of them.

FLAPJACK YOU ARE AN ADORABLE COCONUT CREAM PIE.
Title: Re: The Nostalgia thread.
Post by: ZeroKirbyX on September 21, 2008, 11:12:59 PM
I can appreciate what you're trying to say, but I don't like it when someone just dies "because", in any media. Look at Serenity. Wash dies. Why does Wash die? Was he in a precarious situation? A bit yes, but he died so that they could just say "Oh this is a bad place" and he would matter the least. I'm all for killing off characters if it is necessary, but just to kill them off for the sake of it is ridiculous.

WEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSTTT
Title: Re: The Nostalgia thread.
Post by: Revolution911 on September 21, 2008, 11:37:15 PM
Oh no its not just for the sake of it, def not.

But look at the Zuko fight.  Zuko got BLASTED.  I could've sworn he was done for good.  That just inspired an "oh ****....." from me.  I was so into it.  Then Katara kicks her *** and its all awesome in a bittersweet kinda way and I'm thinking "Man that was really epic ;_;"

NOPE.  MAGIC HEALING POWERS ACTIVATE.  ZUKO IS FINE ^_^_^_^_^_^_
Weak :(

They didnt need to kill someone there to show you how bad it was going.  You could just see. 

Or Sokka and Toph.  They're taking out an entire fleet of ships by crashing them into eachother, and they just pop out without a scratch?  Not cool :(  Its like they let everyone live just for the sake of a happy jolly ending.  YOU CAN STILL HAVE A HAPPY ENDING WITH A DEATH.  And then magically earth kingdom DOESN'T totally hate the fire kingdom?  Idk dude, I call bull.

Post by: ZeroKirbyX on September 21, 2008, 11:44:00 PM
Well the problem is that that series didn't really have a main character you could feel for that wasn't important. I mean, maybe Appa could have exploded, but ****, who would have cared.

Well you look fine, and your laugh sounds healthy.

FOSTERS?
My gym partners a monkey!  People hate on it all the time, but its so funny dude.  And the art isnt half bad.
Mr. Men show
Transformers: Animated, which I gotta admit grew on me.
BATMANl THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpXSPJZr65s its going to be so awesome.
They're also making a new Cartoon Cartoon (Which gave birth to powerpuff girls, dexters lab etc etc) called cartoonstitute.
Secret Saturdays WHICH ALSO LOOKS AWESOME http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyGNzi30B-4


CN has really been delivering in recent years.
adventure time show is coming up!



This was in response to Archems post on page 2....which I just now realized was on page 2.


Millions of times better than ****ing Nick, which has become the Spongebob network. 
once in awhile they'll show that **** icarly,but its pretty much the spongebob network. (though I do like that show they have called the mighty b WHICH THEY SHOULD SHOW MORE OFTEN)
Title: Re: The Nostalgia thread.
Post by: ZeroKirbyX on September 22, 2008, 02:57:17 AM
I like Mighty B on nick. Foster's was great, but it wore thin after awhile. I still love CMcC though. Same with Rev, Transformers Animated grew on me. Probably because it reminds me so much of Man of Actions style, which grew on me after being berated with Ben 10. That show, whatever you think, was still fun to watch. I'm on edge about Secret Saturdays. It could be awesome, but I'm not hyping it up.

I mean TODAY CN. It's really been on a steady decline for a while (yes it has), but it always had about a dozen things to watch. Some were good, some were ok, but they were always at that point where you'd rather watch them than turn the TV off. Nowadays, there's only Chowder or Flapjack. It's a massive shame.

And the only show on Nick that I would ever watch is Spongebob or reruns of older shows. I swear to God, if they reran Kenan and Kel, I'd never miss an episode.

Of course, there's that other Nick channel that I ignore... I hear they show things of a quality only seen in the 90s...

No way man. Castles in the Sky is too much happy dance to be as popular.

Sandstorm was the only techno, and even the ghetto folk were dancing. It was, well, depressing.

+20 respect points. Whenever there wasn't any real asskicking, there was Calico. Pure win.

In addition, I find the new Nickelback song (Gotta Be Somebody) pretty nostalgic for me. I always hated being the guy that never went to dances, never had somebody to sit with at lunch, and never had any real feelings about anything. Of course, I've find mine, but I can't help but hate my middle school/high school freshman days.
