Mega Man (2017)

[Mew]

Where *Their?

[TMNT_Guy]

So the Ruby-Spears cartoon, outside of manga and comic adaptations, is still the most faithful classic Mega Man adaptation. That’s…kind of sad.

Hopefully the Archie comic starts again soon.

The redesign isn't awful, even though it has a little of that "edgy 11 year old gets to reboot old character and makes them overcomplicated" look

[Bry]

...yeah, I dunno. A lot of this is change for the sake of change, and I don't think Mega Man is a design or a concept that needs this kind of update.

Seriously, guys. You could just adapt the Archie comic. Ian Flynn gave you the perfect blueprint.

I praised God that Mega Man didn't turn out like this:

[Shark_Blade]

He looks like a childish kindergartener's poor fan art... Disgusting.

[drgon78]

Wow! looks terrible.

[snake]

I'm not a fan of the design, but it's the generator rex/ben ten guys. They make quality stuff. The writing is atleast in good hands.




Buuuuuuuut "ages 6-9" kinda scares me a bit. Who knows how it'll turn out?

I feel sorry for kids these days, these are the type of cartoons they have to grow up with. They need to go back and watch the cartoons from the 90's and early 2000's circa 2000-2008 or so to see good shows.

The only remotely good cartoons nowadays is Nick TMNT and the Star Wars Rebels show. Too bad Young Justice got canceled so fast.

Yep. I can agree with you on that Cubed. It seemed like action shows were actually making a comeback from 2007-2012 but then everything got canned and replaced with a flash animated comedy.

My favorite memories are of me turning all the lights down in my basement on a friday night starting at 7pm and watching CN's "you are here" block that only showed the action shows. Oh my god it was glorious. First up was Batman: The Brave and The Bold, which back then I really didn't appriciate it as much as I do now, but I watched it. Then Ben Ten would air and that was awesome. Then the main event came on, Star Wars: The Clone Wars. Eventually more stuff was added to the block, like Symbiotic Titan, the Secret Saturdays, and Generator Rex, and all that was good, but it stilled stayed badass and true to it's action core.


All that stuff had such a huge impact on me. Really, Ben Ten is what got me an interest for writing, and Clone Wars taught me HOW to write.

Looks like ass. All hope is lost. It's confirmed, the higher ups of this world are actively trying to destroy everything that invokes happiness, nostalgia, or is an otherwise comforting escape to young adults today.

But Powder, it's HIP and NEW! NEW things are good! Right?

[CyberCubed]

There were some good new shows in the mid-2000's but a lot of them got canceled way too fast. Spectacular Spiderman started in 2008 for example but ended after 26 episodes. Wolverine and the X-men and Young Justice started after and were both canceled quick.

There was also Avatar/Korra in that time and of course TMNT 2k3.

Have you seen what they've done to Powerpuff Girls? Tragic.

I know. That show screams "Hey! We're trying hard to be relavent!" and beats you over the head with it.

Didn't bubbles make a meme face from 2008 or something?

It looks like a late 90s/early 00's CG character mixed with Mighty No.9(which isn't a good thing). Event he proposed CG Mighty No.9 show looked better even if it did look generic and bad. This is in the same level of bad as the 90s Mega Man cartoon and that show probably will end up having more references to the show than this. It's likely going for the Sonic Boom and Pac-Man and the ghostly adventures crowd.

He looks like he judges and hates everyone.

[ProactiveMan]

I'd have called it Adobe Illustrator Man.

[Shred Head]

I just want everyone to watch these and think about what we should have had and just how bad they ****ed this up.





Instead we get Mega Mini fantastic.

Oh sh*t I forgot about that Pac man show. This will be EXACTLY like that. Sonic Boom wasn't too bad for a comedy IIRC, and had some pretty funny jokes.
