who thinks the old cartoons are better than the ones now?

Answer 1

Ninja turtles, animaniacs, Looney tunes, original batman and superman cartoons- unbeatable... the quality of animation is also down- ever since this Japanimation fad started w/ Pokemon became popular- they dont move at all, and other than that cartoons today just blow

Answer 2

Yeah, but only some.

Take looney tunes cartoons for example,
All the older ones have a lot more detail on the art to them, and the newer ones all seem a little rushed.

The old Pink Panther Cartoon was miles better compared to todays effort, whats with him talking???

And speaking of talking, why do Tom and Jerry talk now???

So, to answer your question, YES on the most part old Cartoons are definitely better than the new ones.

Answer 3

First, let's differentiate between children's cartoons and adult themed cartoons. The Simpsons, And anything on Adult Swim is not geared toward children. Now that that is settled, the old cartoon far out weight the new ones. In the 80's when I was growing up, there was a bevvy of cartoons, from comedic cartoons to action toons there was variety and quality. Cartoons such as Transformers, G.I. Joe, Transor Z, Gem, He-Man, She-Ra, and the list goes on, were far more intellectually stimulating than the cartoons that (unlike in the 80's) you can find on the two to three channels that actually show cartoons.

As a side note I feel that the lack of entertainment quality is also why we are raising a generation of unimaginative, desensitized, lazy, underachieving, overweight, video game zombies. ..."and that's one to grow on!" "...and knowing is half the battle!"

Answer 4

It's like comparing apples and pears quite frankly. Most cartoons are drawn for the world and generation they are created in, which is my the naive humour of some of the older ones seems very twee now (I still cringe when older cartoons relate to a happy person as gay and my kids look at me and snigger). Quite honeslty I don't think you'll ever beat Tom & Jerry as they seem timeless, saying that tho, Spongebob is utterly fantastic :)

Answer 5

I do.

I miss Ren and Stimpy, and Rocko's Modern Life.

Something's gone wrong with the cartoons of today.

The only cartoons that are okay are Spongebob and Fairly OddParents.

But I would much rather have the old ones back.

Answer 6

Old cartoons are way better......the new ones are awful spongbob, pokemon etc

My faves were, tom and jerry (used to be on at about 3 every day!!) bugs bunny, dastardly and mutley, catch the pigeon (I still know the theme song!!) wacky races, the racoons, gummi bears, care bears, scooby doo, I used to love them all - kids watch too much tv now anyway!!!!! OMG almost forgot topcat!!! I loved TC and the gang!!!! and.....OMG this is bringing back too many memories, used to go to my friends house and play Teenage mutant Ninja Turtles he always played the rat.....forgotten the name of him though!! and heeman!! dungeons and dragons ahhh lovely

Answer 7

You mean Topcat, Catch the Pigeon, Scooby-Doo(NOT with that infernal Scrappie), Captain Caveman, Wacky Races, that type of stuff?
Oh,I couldn't agree more. The stuff we watched was loads better than the crap now!
....Road Runner, Bugs Bunny,FogHorn Leghorn, The Flintstones, Dick Dastardly and Muttley, Hair-Bear Bunch, ....etc.

Answer 8

The old cartoons are so cool to watch and funny like pop eye and super man and stuff like that!

Answer 9

Well, a large part of this is nostalgia for when we were young & the world seemed a less complicated place due to our innocence. But there are also differences in approach & technique which contribute to content & stylistic differences.

Answer 10

I like all the classic cartoons. Bugs Bunny, Gummi Bears & Talespin are my favorites. There's nothing like them.
