That show was great. I just love some of the shtick Courage would just bust out every once in a while:

That's actually Ronan the Accuser.

I was going to use the Silver Surfer, but Ronan looked cooler.

Is that from Annihilation? Personally, I would have chosen Drax. He's like Voldo. Except less freaky.

I'm a big fan of the Ultimate version of Captain Marvel, I was going to change to that, but I realised that I couldn't be bothered.

Yeah.

I thought of using Super Skrull as well.

I don't even know what the hell Annihilation is about but those covers are pretty damn awesome.

Courage was great...likewise for Ren & Stimpy & Rocko. I miss Invader Zim too (though they show re-runs, they fucked all chances for a new season...evenso, they changed the writers & voices, bah, fuckers). Teen Titans has proven interesting, Justice League Unltd too. I think you guys covered damn near anything I've even glanced in the direction of, the past 2 years, lol. Friggin Nick', always ruins the good stuff :OWTH:

I don't watch much as far as cartoons go anymore. I miss the good ole days of the Transformers, GI Joe, He-Man, etc. All these remakes piss me off with their absolute shittiness :whip: DVD ftw! lol

This thread was on the second page already.

Keep it alive, you bastards!

The Amazing Screw-On Head.

It's the pilot for a cartoon based on a Mike Mignola's comic and they tried to keep it close to his style. They did too, with a fair amount of success.

It's fairly amusing, Emperor Zombie is cool.

Anyone remember this cartoon named cybersix? It's this awesome cartoon they used to show on foxkids with a lot of edits. It's about this cyborg named cybersix; that's pretty much all that I can remember. Canada and japan co-created it and the animation is very fluid.

I like how David Hyde Pierce, who played Abe Sapien in the Hellboy movie, is voicing Emperor Zombie.

Just watched the last disc of Justice League season 2.

Most of the stuff was great (the Justice Lords, Secret Society and Thanagar arcs).

The rest was either not as great (the Royal Flush Gang and Despero) or could've been told in one episode (AMAZO or the Vandal Savage stuff).

Well worth buying though.

The interaction between the main seven is just great and the Christmas episode (written by Paul Dini) was tops, especially the Martian Manhunter sections.

Can't wait for Unlimited, though I'll probably skip the first season.

EDIT: Just found out that Justice League Unlimited Seasons 1 & 2 will be released on a single set in October.

Yes.

Im gonna play the necrophiliac on this one as femto requested a few posts back.

I suprised that nobody here has mentioned ThunderCats Or Sonic SatAm. They are both perfection in their genres. Except the female voices in thundercats all sounded like they were made by an old woman. even for the kids.

Ive rescently been watching the old captain america series from the sixties on dvd and i have to say its some of the funnies cheese ever made. I even beats the old batman show.(Wich it is very similiar to)

I watched Ultimate Avengers 2 the other day. There were some inconsistencies that made me laugh a bit, but it's pretty decent.

I don't like metal so I'll pass.

The only new show on Adult Swim that shows promise is Korgoth the Barbarian.

I kinda stopped watching television a bit, but I caught the pilot by sheer luck and thought it was awesome.

Finding out that the boys have died mutiple times was just too good. Gives them endless ways to just fuck with the show.
