As I am head of the idiot guide in the Dreambox forum I was delightet to find another place where there is an website where similar values are valued :)

This is of course the Ren & Stimpy "The Members of the Loyal Order of Stupids" website. vvv.motlos.com


I was a fan from the minute I saw the first episone in the early 90ies, and my two boys are too...

So, lets have it then, what are your favourite cartoons???


P.S Mr Horse is one of my favourites, I hope someone picks it up as an Avatar!!

Yes, Cow and Chicken are high class, but I Am Weasel is also a cracking spinoff. Dexter's Lab is probably the one I've watched the most though :)

Of course then there are the real cartoons like the Simpsons and South Park, didn't like South Park the first time i watched it, but it certainly grew on me.

Cartoons?

Well it has to be the Simpsons dosn't it?

Prior to that I think that the 50sand 60s Warner Brothers cartoon were brill and let's not forget the wonderful Tom and Jerry - but only the Hanna Barbera ones.

I also had a soft spot for Rocky and Bullwinkle (Stroke, stroke, stroke. Bail, bail, bail). Yeah, I know it was naff but everyone's allowed a "wobble" or two.

Popeye, Olive Oil and Bluto for me, the patience of those animators was astounding, even so I never did acquire a taste for spinnach:-annoy

Ah yes, if they come on TV, Ill always sit down and watch

Since the other half is in the animation business I suppose Id better post one of her projects (from a few years back)
http://www.adrenalini.com - the original episodes are on there somewhere

I did like Cool World , bombed in the cinemas though, not sure why

http://www.gregorich.com/animation/misc/holly2.jpg

Beavis and Butthead, the short sketches, especially The Woodshop, reminded me of my time at school.

Some of the Asian animators have done true magic with the format, from the earliest one I have - The Professional, up to Ghost in the Shell, not seen many since.

For modern stuff, probably Samurai Jack, almost all the episodes are brilliantly scripted and drawn.

Yeah, popeye was my first love, actually convinced me to like spinach...I am a victim of advertising...black and white late 60ies at my granddads black & white tv..

Then there was Buggs Bunny, duffy and Deputy Dawg (anyone remember him, good nabbit??). Simpsons and Futerama are also favourites, but still Ren & Stimpy get the vote for me because it is completely crazy...I just saw a clip of the new episodes called beach party, it is hilarious....

If you want to watch it, go to this page h**p://apc.thetma.com/ (the "ren & stimpy adult party cartoon" site)
and download the naked beach frenz clips, you will not regret it I promise!! O-Ha

Anything originating from Viz I suppose.

The Fat Slags, Sid the Sexist, Billy the Fish, The Pathetic Sharks or best of all Roger Mellie - the Man on the Telly.

Voiced by Peter Cook on the DVD, his Profanisaurus is also something to have you gagging on your chips.
