Title: Never too old for a cartoon.
Post by: MichelleHW101 on November 29, 2011, 02:48:22 pm
I have to say that even in the early 30’s I still watch cartoons.  Yes, Disneys are a must but cartoons like Rango from Dreamworks or even the Ice Age series from Fox I love to watch.  At the end of a long hard day, especially when things don’t go just the way I want I always grab a cartoon (funnier the better) and by the end I always feel so much better.

I like watching cartoons too but there isn't many (excluding anime) I watch. My preference is for the ones thought out with a story to follow. One example is Sym-Bionic Titan, a decently made action cartoon I enjoyed up till it was canceled by Cartoon Network.

Agreed agreed and agreed.. I love to watch old movie cartoon.  They are very interesting, and I love it.  I can't watch Tom and Jerry and never get bore of it.

I love the old cartoons, e.g. Looney Tunes with Porky Pig, Bugs Bunny, and even popeye.  The music played with some of the old cartoons is wonderful!

Hell no.
Unfortunately stuff these days is not up to par with what used to be.
I still watch the stuff I can get my hands on, anything that is bothered to be put on DVD.
My favorite timeline is from when I grew up during the 90's

Not a fan of what anime has trashed the world with.

Cartoons often require little reading into so they are often fun and easy to watch. I watch cartons everyone in a while and am also in my 30's with no kids.

I love the "old" cartoons. My grandsons now watch them on Cartoon Network and it amuses me that they like them as much as we did. I watch with them and indulge myself.We are also looking forward to the new Chipmunks movie coming out. Heck--the oldies are goodies, just like me.

I love watching cartoons with my kids.  I can't stand some of the new ones, and my kids don't care for some of the older ones, but the disney movies are almost always running, and go figure, "The Secret of Nimh" is by 3 year old's favorite movie (currently).

I am older than 30 and I still love the cartoons.  But they have to be from the old school days.  Some of the cartoons today are just too violent.

I have to say that when I find older Scooby on I have to watch it and I am over 30 and not ashamed. I also find myself turning on Sponge Bob or another on of my kids favorite cartoons, just to hear the show in the background is somwhat comforting. My kids are far from grown (19, 15 and 10) but the older they get the more I wish they were little again.

I love watching cartoon movies too, but I agree with everyone else in saying that the new cartoons on tv aren't very good.  I do watch the old ones when they're on, though.  :)

My favorite movie of 2010 was Despicable Me. So yeah, there's definitely always room for a great animated movie or show. Looking forward to seeing how this Adventures of Tintin adaptation will look. It's promising.

I love cartoons! I specially love watching Disney movies still. Especially the princess movies. I have been in the mood to watch Mulan again! My favorite Disney movie (cartoon wise) is The Nightmare Before Christmas.... wait does that even count since its stop motion? o.O Because my favorite non-cartoon from Disney is Pirates of the Caribbean 1-4.... as for my favorite cartoon movie of all times is Anastasia! (That one I know for sure is a cartoon by Fox. lol)

I'm also firmly in the "old cartoon" camp. :) My 3-year-old's current favs are Scooby Doo and Looney Tunes (especially the Roadrunner). Some of the preschool cartoons are okay I like Word World and Caillou but I HATE Spongebob and Thomas the Train and we don't watch either of those.

Besides Disney, I definitely love the good old Looney Tunes made back in the 40s Golden Age. Bugs Bunny-Daffy-Porky-Elmer Fudd-Yosemite Sam cartoon rules. They’re not exactly made for small children. Love the classic slapstick humor.  ;)

 ;D Was so tickled to see I'm not the only one who still likes cartoons.  I am 58 years old and believe I will always like cartoons.  Cartoons and animated movies are an art form and I don't believe them to be just for kids - I like a wide variety of movies but have a special affinity for animated movies and cartoons.

I agree that modern cartoons are not up to par, but I disagree about anime being the cause.  Along with older cartoons, I also love lots of anime (though I hate the English dub version, so only watch originals with subtitles); a lot of the anime that got put on cartoon network were butchered so they could make them "age-appropriate".  I'm just glad they didn't get ones like Fruits Basket, Kyo Kara Maoh or Magic Knight Rayearth; they would have pulled all the wisdom out of the anime and left the cuteness only.

I love cartoons. I watch american made, cgi and anime as well. I also like that unlike real life movies and shows cartoons have the power to do anything that can be imagined. Of course CGI is also being used in real movies as well more and more.

I watch cartoons still now to. It remind me when my brothers,sister and I watch them when were kids. I love it then and love it now.
I tell you something else that is so relaxing after a long hard day and that is to put on some soft soothing music. tRY IT. :wave:

Animated movies can be a fun choice. There are several I like. As for cartoons, I love the ones I grew up with. Jetsons and Pink Panther are just two of my favorites.  :thumbsup: Can't go wrong with classics. There were some great cartoons from the '90s as well.

I must admit my tastes have changed and since my kids are teenagers now I've strayed from most cartoons altogether.  About the only ones I can handle now are animated shows of the "adult" variety, i.e. South Park, American Dad, The Simpsons etc.  After while though, even those start to drive me crazy....

I can agree that people are never too old to watch cartoons.  But at the same time people are never too young to not watch cartoons.  I never watched cartoons(that I can remember) when I was a kid, so I don't watch them now either.
