Tiny Toon Adventures
 
Another 90's(well technically December 89) classic, who else agrees?

LeotheLateBloomer 05-18-2022 08:47 AM

I was all over this show in my early childhood days! Always watched it whenever it was on. My parents got me so many merchandise of this show. I had the bedsheets and pajamas. I had a tape of How I Spent My Summer Vacation and would watch it all the time whether on VHS or on TV, though I never appreciate why they couldn't just air it as a movie as opposed to splitting each part as a regular half-hour episode (I always viewed it as a movie).

I had so much fun with the video games like Buster Busts Loose and Wacky Sports Challenge. Me and my brother put hours into the latter.

I'll always love Tiny Toons and am looking forward to the new series.

I think I was way too young for Tiny Toons, because I remember loving it so much yet I don't remember anything about it. I only recognize the characters and the theme song but that's it.

drgon78 05-18-2022 09:16 AM

I really do love the movie, I think it deserved a theatrical release.

Most of the show is great with the exception of few environmental/save the whales/cute animals type episodes.

Prowler 05-18-2022 09:36 AM

I mostly remember it due to my older brother being a fna of it when he was a kid and recording some episodes on VHS and also owning the How I Spent My Vacation movie. I was a little too young to watch it when it aired on TV. I have more memories of playing the Acme ALL Stars Sports game for the Mega Drive, the NES Tiny Toons game and the SNES Buster Busts Loose game. Honestly, all of those games are pretty damn fun. Buster Busts Loose is a sentimental favourite. One of the best licensed games of all time.

The episodes I remember the most are those about smoking, the fancy restaurant they go to, Thirteen Something where Babs enters a soap opera, Promise Her Anything where Buster invites Babs to the prom and ofc the How I Spent My Vacation movie. I must have watched it 25 times or something.

My parents regularly bought me an italian magazine with their stories in early 90s. I loved it.

There was a Tiny Toons magazine?

Wesley 05-18-2022 07:21 PM

I remember loving the tv series and movie as well as reading some comics when I was 7 or 8.

I got the mega drive game Buster’s Hidden Treasure and played it a lot in my pre-teens, though I never beat it. Couldn’t get through all the factory levels.

I didn't know there were comics.

Yes! There was an italian magazine called Bunny Band published in 1992-1995 that contained comics, puzzles and other activity pages. The stories were mostly about Tiny Toon (as far as I can remember) but also about "older" Warner Bros. characters like Bugs Bunny and Duffy Duck. I'm sure the comics pages came from some american publication and I think similar magazines existed all across the Europe as well.

I would have been a little too young at the time to remember that. I was born in 1990 after all.

That does sound like the Sesame Street magazine I used to read when I was a kid, though. It was kind of like that as well.

drgon78 05-24-2022 05:30 AM

Yeah, never saw the comics, but not surprised, anything with even some popularity would get a comic back then.

ZariusTwo 07-23-2022 04:12 AM

First look at the new series

Elmyra's in the image but Cree Summer said that she's not involved in it. I imagine either Jeff Bergman or Eric Bauza will take over for Plucky or Hampton. Hopefully the animation and humor is on point.

In comparison to the new Animaniacs, it looks like they're bringing back most of the cast of characters but some previous VAs might not be returning.

Coola Yagami 07-23-2022 10:42 AM

I wonder how they'll do Fifi. Or if they'll leave her unchanged because 'it's ok when women do it'

drgon78 07-24-2022 05:57 AM

I could care less for the new one, just give me the original TV series(plus movie and specials) a blu ray release.

ranger_scout 07-30-2022 11:06 PM

I’m honestly surprised that they didn’t invite Tess MacNeillie back because she is still voicing Dot Warner on the new Animaniacs. Charlie Adler left the show on bad terms because he was bitter about not being hired to voice a lead on the original Animaniacs.

drgon78 07-31-2022 06:14 AM

That is not the only reason, Him and the voice actor for Plucky found out that MacNeillie was making more then both of them combined. They didn't handle it correctly and he(unlike plucky voice actor) didn't apologize for it, so Spielberg wouldn't let him come back.

Meh, she totally deserved it!

LeotheLateBloomer 08-04-2022 03:28 AM

Yup, sadly Babs has been recasted.

https://gizmodo.com/tiny-toons-bugs-...1849329661/amp

She and Buster will also be fraternal twins.

drgon78 08-04-2022 05:36 AM

Fraternal twins?!! Did they not watch the original show, It's Buster and Babs Bunny, no relation!

Also there is a another section for the remake, this is for the original show.

That's ass. This is why I f*cking hate remakes and reboots.

Coola Yagami 08-04-2022 01:03 PM

I mean, that won't stop the rule 34, if that was their goal. Hell, it might even increase it.

Wildcat 08-05-2022 01:01 AM

There’s really nothing wrong changing that up and making them brother and sister. It can give them a different dynamic. Plus there will probably be a multiverse episode where they meet the originals and poke fun at each other.

If you’re gonna keep every single thing the same because of backlash then there’s no point. I mean if you’re gonna remake something do some stuff differently. Don’t just “copy and paste”.

I know certain things are considered untouchable and deciding what could or shouldn’t be changed is a balance but this is a perfectly fine difference imo.

I..... kinda don't think 'poke fun' is something you would you if you met an alternate version of yourself and your sister and they're lovers.

I should have worded it better. I meant the show itself would make a fun of it. I’m sure Buster and Babs would be grossed out but other characters would probably make fun of them. Definitely Monty.

Jester 08-05-2022 07:55 AM

I dunna, one of the main recurring jokes was:
"I'm Buster Bunny!"
"And I'm Babs Bunny!"
"NO RELATION!"
Seems like missing the point to make them twin siblings.

Or hey, here's an even better idea. Ready?

Stop doing "remakes" and leave stuff well enough alone.

Ta-f*cking-da, problem solved.

Leofan26 08-05-2022 11:30 AM

Eh either way fans will ship them, we’re just getting into the creepy kind of shipping like Gwen x Ben or Dipper x Mabel.

With internet being a thing now I can only imagine the new pairings that will be a thing and become popular ??

Autbot_Benz 08-05-2022 12:23 PM

Babs and Buster siblings no thanks

None of the OG Voice cast is back IE Charlie Adler and Tress MacNeille as Buster and Babs no thanks.

Will continue watching the OG Tiny Toons on Hulu one of these days

Well I definitely prefer sequels/continuations but I’ve always found remakes interesting. Seeing another interpretation of something is fun imo.

Not sure this new Tiny Toons should be a called a “remake”. When is something a remake and just another version? All the TMNT stuff are different versions not FW or 1990 remakes.

I understand it’s being called this because it’s only the second TT cartoon and it’s been on hiatus for so long but there’s nothing wrong with it existing either way.

People just like using the same complaints on purpose to sound smart or whatever. It happens to everything (remake or not).

drgon78 09-30-2022 05:22 AM

99% of the time I prefer the original to any remake.

Hopefully they can retcon it as them being adopted siblings:D

drgon78 01-18-2023 09:13 AM

Just give me the original series(along with the movie and specials) on blu ray

ssjup81 01-18-2023 12:44 PM

Welp, Buster and Babs as sibs...that's wrong on so many levels. Did they not even watch the original series? They were romantically linked on that one. Remember the prom ep? lol

Oh well...another series reboot that'll probably have me turning away or not even wanting to touch it...like Animaniacs.

LeotheLateBloomer 01-18-2023 02:12 PM

This reboot got delayed like what...two times now?

Mad Dog McMutt 01-18-2023 05:34 PM

Sometimes dead is better.

drgon78 01-19-2023 05:23 AM

Considering the track record for remakes....especially now a days....dead isn't good enough.

drgon78 01-22-2023 05:36 AM

Though personally I would prefer to talk about the original series since that is what I created this one for.

Coola Yagami 01-22-2023 10:52 AM

I barely remember the original series at this point.

I do remember seeing the supposed 'banned episode' on TV, the drinking PSA. I never saw the big deal. The characters were assholes but they acknowledged that they were acting out of character for the sake of the PSA, and even after they 'died' at the end, we see it was a staged set and they're taking off their angel costumes and heading home.

Maybe just because beer itself was mentioned? But I mean, how else will you get the message across if you don't flat out name the thing you want kids to avoid? Imagine a no-drug special where drugs themselves are never ever mentioned?
