Fast Forward Makes "Top Twenty Worst Animated Theme Songs" List



Number 12, lumped in with other 4kids theme

He's actually quite complimentary to the version of the song without the lyrics

Actually watched this video a couple days ago with the hopes that this song would make the list. Mr. Enter never ceases to disappoint.

GOD that song is horrible though. Fast Forward AND the 4Kids One Piece theme.

The multiple choice theme songs where fans voted was interesting, I wish that had been an ongoing annual thing for 4Kids if they'd continued with the show

I uploaded an instrumental version of the FF theme song to my own YouTube channel, and Mr. Enter's video has sent a lot of people over to it. :p

The other options were so bad that I have to imagine they were always going to go with their final choice, and that the voting was a gimmick. Kind of like the TMNT top 10 was clearly just whatever ones they felt like airing.

Yeah. I wish the nick show did that. I always get pretty excited when you're watching a regular episode of a show and a whole new intro comes on.

Yeah. Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated changed the visuals of their theme song around when Daphne dropped out the gang and "Hot Dog Water" took her place for a few episodes. I think it's always a neat little touch.

Didn't the first BttS episode use the FF theme song since they were still in the future?

Pretty sure all of the voted themes are all on youtube. Some of them are BAD.

I think so, and the episode ended with the Back to the Sewer intro to mark the transition

The people definitely voted for the best one. If Mr. Enter knew about BttS's theme he'd probably stop considering Pokemon Season 1 as the only good theme song 4Kids has ever done.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hyvEk010Po oh and here's the video. Be warned, however, many of these are AWFUL. Always loved #1 though.

I never hated the ff theme. I thought it was a fun and cute little theme. Not the best tmnt theme in my view, but i enjoyed it for what it was. Or maybe my standards for a bad theme song are pretty high.

I'll just let Emer Prevost, a much better and more legitimate internet reviewer IMO, explain how I feel about Mr. Enter:

Given how some children's channels make lackluster or dumb cartoons with some pretty awful things such as having a protagonist nearly push someone to suicide or having someone having their day wrecked by the protagonist just for existing, I can't really argue with Enter.

While that is true, it doesn't change that he draws out his points way too long. The top twenty list here is split up into two parts which add up to about sixty-seven minutes, it took an hour and seven minutes for him to do what other critics typically do in ten to twenty.

Prevost's complaint about a lot of Enter's criticism doesn't really make sense is one that I also agree with. Complaining about how Teen Titans Go has bad morals when the morals presented are intended to be a joke doesn't make any sense.

It's an amazing music piece but the awful singers and terrible lyrics ruined it. No more!

This makes a huge difference:

This is stupid. I found Fast Forward's theme song to be very catchy. I guess everyone has their own opinions though.
