I hate to be all negative and grumpy...but if it is anything like the new Transformers Animated I won't be watching. I tried watching that show a few times, and it is just godawful. Why do executives think kids are stupid? They aren't.
I've just started watching Justice League Unlimited on DVD, and I have to wonder...why can't more cartoons be like that? I love it now and I'm certain I would've loved it as a kid. Why isn't there more out there like that?

I think the smart move would be to get it on the air before the movie opens and create interest in kids.
I am not optimistic that the movie can do that on it's own, regardless of whether that is their intention or not. |

As long as it is not made into more japanime bull crap I could let a lot of other things go, but you know this is the style they'll use. It's cheaper and kids today are used to this garbage. Have you heard if this will also be coming from gonzo studios?
I would love to see a new Joe 'toon, but I can not imagine that any quality will go into it beyond what today's 6 year olds will demand .

Why does everyone have to be down like this ... maybe we should start believing in people before we doubt them ... myself personally can say, there is a new series in the works ... how do I know, well I work in the animation industry and I have a few really good friends at Hasbro ... but then again, I am sure it will be "interesting if it's true".

Why isn't there more out there like that? I'll agree that Transformers Animated is fairly lame, but my young kids love it, if for no other reason than to see Transformers moving and talking. Once they get a little older, they probably won't care about cartoons anyway as long as they have video games. (Maybe a reason to hold off on that purchase for a while.)

Inevitable news in the wake of a big budget movie I guess.
Here's hoping it's better than Transformers: Animated (which actually has me longing for the Unicron Trilogy). I don't care if it is 'what kids want these days'. Let's face it: Kids don't really have much of a choice when it comes to 'quality television' and have to watch what they're given.

Why isn't there more out there like that? I'm with gunslingercbr on this one. I think we NEED a cartoon to re-introduce the Joes to a new generation. The movie will need them. I see a few kids picking up GI Joe figures at the stores, but with an all-but-dead comic series, no commercials, no TV shows or movies (yet) why would they know a thing about it? Collectors are great and loyal consumers, but a toy line needs the kids. Star Wars would never have lasted this long without them.

Then you get to the end and suffer the depressing letdown of realizing there aren't any more, and then you wonder why the show was cancelled. (I also suffered that when I watched Firefly and Dead Like Me on DVD.)
