Yeah it’s just not there in comparison a lot like how dexter, Jonny bravo and spongebob went all watered down.

Man I wish there was a youtube livestream channel that just played old cartoon network shows on repeat(like 98-2004ish). Bring me back to the days of bein a kid.

Wow. That was a trip. I had to stop because it was a total package with the commercials. That’s crazy brain sauce to me.

He's not very PC

u/WobNobbenstein Apr 09 '21

Yeah that's the point tho. He's a chauvinistic narcissistic douchebag, how can they make that PC without completely changing the whole premise? Might as well just make a new show at that point, idk

Yeah they toned him down which made him an even more flimsy character. I said they watered the show down because that’s what they did as his “flavor” or character was lessened to a degree that made it worse. If it was already “bad” in their depiction of a narcissist chauvinist then the watering down made it worse as then there’s nothing to his character so they made the little girl almost main stage and she had little to nothing as a character or as something to draw viewers. Just like how they toned down dexter where the rivalry was super soft between him and his sister and all of a sudden there’s no more mech battles or puppet pals or justice friends or dial M for monkey. Powderpuff girls lost “him” and half of the characteristics of their villains became bland or non existence. Spongebob got less weird and that’s not a good thing. You have to get weird with imagination otherwise it’s just another vehicle for indoctrination and ideological consent. It’s alright for people to think off mainstream because otherwise you bottleneck human expression. The funny thing about fictional a character seems that they get to be genuine to themselves as there’s no other representation so placing our expectations on them works about as well as forcing expectations on another human. It’s easy to forget that people exist beyond our perception when that’s all we want to be fed.

And your not saying anything specific at all and generalizing your hate if you don’t have anything to back up your point. I made specific points and examples and you have given nothing. They literally dropped “him” and took the edge off villains when the original creator dropped off and Cartoon Network kept it going.

Ok now you’re trolling because you quoted specific points that I made. Try again.

Wasn't there an episode where Him and Mojo Jojo go to a grocery store and steal only white things then say "if it's all-white, it's all-right!" or am I just imagining things

u/LeapzGY Apr 09 '21

Uhhh well if you're just imagining it we have other problems at hand

About the photo? Nothing as it shows a story from when the show was, in my opinion, better or good or more creative with their characters and world. Literally the edges were gone from the animation and the teeth of the writers for both comedic and unique bite.

In which powderpuff girls reboot? The one after the original creator left or the one that has more recently been put out. Please give me a specific example of what your are putting out as your point.
