Could also probably say Danny Phantom, it is pretty goth. Or God help us, we all remember Mr. Meaty, the most disturbing of all the series.

As for specials, soon it'll be time for all the Cartoon Network kids to rise for Scary Godmother.

I'm amazed both specials csn be seen like that on youtube. I remember having to wait all week for a rerun of one the other or both.


Someone made a youtube video about Halloween from the 90s to 2000s and how. Well you try to relieve it all you want but there's no going back to what once was.

That reminds me, I’ve been meaning to watch a couple of Scooby Doo movies again. Specifically Zombie Island and The Witch’s Ghost. I remember liking the Loch Ness Monster one a lot as a kid too. Anyone got some other recommendations (besides Cyber Chase, I’ve already seen it a million times)?

Reluctant Werewolf is a good one if you don't mind it being a Wacky Races pastiche.

Ditto.

In 4th grade I had a teacher that had a bookshelf that contained a few "read-a-long" books, and by "read-a-long" i mean "only like 25% of the book was that, with side 'B' being the author counting down to 1". One of them was a Loch Ness monster book.

Incidentally, if you try to find these books online, they don't come with the cassette tape, but I swear they existed. I don't know who made them, but I remember the bigfoot one specifically used the same background "music" that the TMNT comic book used, but I don't think it was made by schoolhouse publishing.

Point is, after reading the book, I got hooked because anything Dinosaur-related was a HUGE interest I had. I even wound up going to the library to rent out a few videos about Loch Ness. This lasted around the time I went to middle school, cause eventually I had to come to the painful realization that this thing doesn't exist.

When I was in grade school, I had a HUGE ghost obsession. I remember watching Most Haunted with Derek Acorah and having books and magazines with REAL PICTURES OF GHOSTS!!1 and stories of the most famous hauntings and the like. I sincerely believed ghosts were real up until my run-in with a minor lolcow whose whole schtick was channeling ghosts.

Scooby Doo was right, the real terrors are people pretending to be ghosts. </3

I never saw this shit when it was supposed to air on TV but I remember a friend used to link me the old flash animations back in the day and then we found out it got greenlit for a TV show only to never fucking see it at the time it said it was supposedly going to be on at. Found out years later it was apperently a clusterfuck behind the scenes.
 
Maxwell Atoms, Billy and Mandy's creator, has left California. Most likely from the misfortunes of his original ideas and pitches not getting picked up and Atoms refusing to do reboots or revivals that executives want him to make.
Is this based or retarded that he turned down these offers because they weren't new ideas?

Across the Spiderverse and all Tom Holland spiderman movies are ass. I don't care what anyone says.
 
Miles is such a boring, generic character that the only way they could make movies about him interesting was to literally jam the entire multiverse into it.

The guy has been in comics since Obama was in office and yet I guarantee that 99% of people knew literally nothing about him beyond him being black. He's been a complete nothing character since his inception.

The man had almost zero interesting stories or villains, to the point writers just kept giving him new powers for no reason because it was the only way to move the character. Comic Miles could lose all his spiderman-specific powers and still have more random bullshit abilities than Peter ever did.

Has 90's Spider-Man even had a role in the Multiverse movies? You'd think they would leverage that given the nostalgia. Supposedly they saved a bunch of roles for the third film, but that feels like a cope to me.

I didn't know he was that recent. I thought it was just a re-imagination of Spiderman, like Spider-UK; yet Miles Morales exists only because "he black".
Pathetic.
 
My problem with this whole thing is how they made Miles not wear the mask often and he's labeled as Miles Morales Spiderman in a lot of the advertising and toys for the movie or some shit. He 100% seemed like a nothingburger character when i first heard of him and it was honestly goofy that his race is the only thing the creators have to show for him. They don't make him the least bit interesting or worth even investing at all.

If your character's only important attribute and purpose is his identity (race, gender, sexuality etc), throw that crap in the trash because you already failed your mc.

If you're gonna do that, at least do it with the spider man character who actually WAS everything 90s angst in a single package.

Had yo say but I think 90s nostalgia is going the way of 80s nostalgia. The well is running dry and it's starting to move on to 2000s nostalgia if not already.
