The MANGAI: A Bionicle Story - Ep 1 Official Trailer
Impressive art style considering they are trying to adapt something like this into 2d:

Bionicle really did have a kind of raw weirdness you just can't find anywhere else.

I also didn't mind what they did to Mr. Freeze, I get why people were mad after his BTAS incarnation, but this version works better if you want a reoccurring villain for an indeterminate amount of episodes

Sure the ice puns may give people bad memories of Batman & Robin, but I think they worked in this case with Clancy Brown's performance making Freeze into a heartless psychopath with a god complex who has no Nora to keep some humanity in him.

That series does not get enough appreciation, and I say this as someone whose favorite VA was Kevin Conroy.

The Batman 2004 had some damn good redesigns for the villians like Killer Moth, Firefly, Riddler, and Bane were some of my favorites. The Batman vs Dracula was awesome and was the first dark cartoon I remember watching growing up.

A treat for yurokiwis, Mortadelo y Filemon vs. Jimmy el Cachondo is in YouTube with ENG subtitles.

This is considered to be one of the finest animated movies made in Spain and is based on a freaking institution of the Spanish comic and animation as Mortadelo & Filemon (known in English as Mort & Phil and many other territories as Clever & Smart or some variation thereof.) I seriously doubt there isn't a soul in this thread that doesn't know them or at least was aware there was a movie, because any self-respecting Spaniard won't allow you to forget it, but this is one of those movies that you always benefit on rediscovering.

This upload is special because it has the original Castillian (Spanish from Spain) dub, which is fucking glorious even if you don't know Spanish hearing Spaniards is always funny. There are two other dubs of this movie: the Peruvian one that was made exclusively for a Peruvian audience and the official Latino one made in Mexico, that is absolute dogshit because of shitty star talent and what Mexico usually does when they feel they can't sell a dub to other countries by going out of their way to Mexicanize it. The Mexican dub is the only audio option you can get in America, so they are forcing my hand into pirating.

This channel also has subbed versions of the first two Huevo movies. Huevocartoon is a pioneer Mexican studio that has been making animation since the early 00s about eggs hence the name and they got 3 whole theatrical movies out of it. They are pretty solid for what they are, sort of like comfort movies with teenager humour, and if you want more free movies that were actually animated in Mexico (unlike some others I know) you should check them out.

It's just as forgettable as Toonsylvania and Histeria.

OH MY GOD!! I looked up Toonsylvania when you said it and I've been looking for that show since 2004! When I was a kid my class rented a coach bus and went to the state capitol, and since the ride was so long they played cartoons and movies for us on the way back home. They played Toonsylvania episodes and I never knew what show it was until now!! I've tried to find it and failed, but that's it! I remember that hunchback and Darla Doily!! Holy shit thank you Quijibo!!

Edit: I'm just now realizing the irony of you saying it's forgettable, meanwhile I've just had a 20 year old question answered because I never forgot it. What a world.

I remember watching Robotomy when I was younger and didn't really find it all that interesting, but rewatching it now I am surprised at how funny this was with all the adult/older teen humor there was.
Especially the first episode being about social media and giving up your privacy that ends up having you become stalked aged miraculously well.

I still remember this shit about the Tudors from years ago. The fate of Henry VIII wives came up as a question back in my school days and this bit immediately popped into my head. Ha and they said watching cartoons wouldn't do you any good in school.

Skip to 2:09 if the timestamp doesn't work.

It's like comparing codsworth to white chappel Charlie in fallout 4. Codswoth i the prim and proper gentleman wcc is the surly filthy bragart with a chip on his shoulder.


But getting back to the topic at hand.

had such an awesome opening a shame kt along with young justice (back when that was a respectable show) ended when it did. Though I admit the cgi on batman was kinda...not my thing at first but maybe I was just so used to him being 2D all my life.
