OK, so i have been hanging around GMC for a while now and have never made my own Poll. I am quite passionate about cartoons ! I should probably grow up, but who cares

South Park is without a doubt my favorite Cartoon. The Simpsons I also love dearly.

But I HATE family guy!!

The purpose of this thread is not to compare cartoons, as everyone has there own personal taste and prefrences. But I would like to see what members favorites are!

Like music, i dont belive one is better than the other, but rather each person like somthing that suits them.

Go forth and vote !

Errmm, now i know why i dont do polls, !

Posted by: Smells Nov 13 2007, 11:39 PM

Simpsons tho m8, gotta be the Simpsons

Posted by: mattacuk Nov 13 2007, 11:39 PM

Ok guys, scrap the poll, just state your favorites!

Posted by: MickeM Nov 13 2007, 11:40 PM

You didn't now either... Where do I vote?

Or should I just post it written? I have to go with The Simpsons, it has lasted so many years and is still fun.

Posted by: mattacuk Nov 13 2007, 11:41 PM

I dont know what happened there Mate I did a poll but its gone. So just discuss !!

Posted by: timono Nov 13 2007, 11:48 PM

but it's still funny

P.S. also like southpark ofcourse

Posted by: blindwillie Nov 13 2007, 11:52 PM

Number one is Simpsons, then Southpark.

I really don't like Family Guy or the other followers.

Posted by: Robin Nov 13 2007, 11:53 PM

Are these shows actually called Cartoons?

South Park is definitely best, but I also love Simpsons, Family Guy and American Dad.

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 13 2007, 11:55 PM

I love South Park and Family Guy. Then i'd have to say The Simpsons. Lastly Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

Posted by: Andrew Cockburn Nov 13 2007, 11:55 PM

Southpark all the way!

Posted by: mattacuk Nov 13 2007, 11:58 PM

So far I am hearing thumbs up for my two Favorites... with no mention of family guy.

I knew you guys were the best

Posted by: Slammer Nov 14 2007, 12:00 AM

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 14 2007, 12:18 AM

Ok, agreed. Haha

Posted by: tonymiro Nov 14 2007, 12:31 AM

One of my favs at the moment is Shin Chan. Usually watch it in the morning with my daughter just before she goes to school. She gets back from school and watches The Simpsons whilst me and her mum are making lunch. Both are educational as they're in Spanish so it helps with her vocabulary - heck two of the first words she learnt in Spanish were 'caca' and 'pipi' from Shin Chan . She also knows 'cajones' because of the cartoon 16 .

As she said to the vet yesterday, 'You've come to cut off the kittens' cajones'. OK it was funny at the time .

Errr she does know other more acceptable words in Spanish as well I hasten to add.

Cheers,
Tony

Posted by: Andrew Cockburn Nov 14 2007, 01:22 AM

+1 for Spongebob!!!

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 14 2007, 01:23 AM

I wish Ren And Stimpy was still on TV and also Rocko's Modern Life.

I miss those shows.

Posted by: mattacuk Nov 14 2007, 01:27 AM

I miss Ren and Stimpy alot. Also Beavis and Butthead were favorites

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 14 2007, 01:29 AM

Yeah I didn't even think of Bevis And Butthead.

Posted by: mattacuk Nov 14 2007, 01:32 AM

Those guys were my favorites for many many years. I still have an entire VHS collection of every episode - shame my VHS player is bust


Oh well i should be practicing anyway

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 14 2007, 01:50 AM

Buy a new one.

Posted by: Fsgdjv Nov 14 2007, 01:51 AM

South Park is my favourite, with Futurama in the second place, and Metalocalypse in the third place. Spongebob also rocks, but it can't be compared to those three.

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 14 2007, 01:57 AM

I'm surprised that your the only one to mention Metalocalypse so far.

Posted by: ActiveX Nov 14 2007, 03:13 AM

1. South Park
2. Family Guy
3. Futurama
4. Simpsons
5. Spongebob
6. Original Transformers (80's)
7. GI Joe (80's)

I personally hate Spongebob for the most part.

Posted by: ActiveX Nov 14 2007, 03:18 AM

I never watched Spongebob until my son started watching it...and I must admit that I laughed my ass off; maybe mostly because I'm just so happy that I don't have to watch the wiggles or teletubbies with him anymore

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 14 2007, 03:19 AM

Ok, that just changed my thought about Spongebob compairing it to the other shows you mentioned.

Posted by: Soul_Decision Nov 14 2007, 03:22 AM

Rocko's Was an awesome cartoon. I like Bleach a lot

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 14 2007, 03:24 AM

Yeah Bleach is cool. I love any anime.

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 14 2007, 03:49 AM

I've never watched Gundam I don't think, but I have played a couple of the games and they were pretty sick. I'll have to check out the cartoons.

Posted by: Soul_Decision Nov 14 2007, 03:51 AM

8th MS Team was awesome very short but executed nicely. I liked the G Gundam one, altough at times is was so corny.

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 14 2007, 03:53 AM

I loved Zoids. Does anyone remember that?

Posted by: Spiderusalem Nov 14 2007, 04:00 AM

VENTURE BROS



FUTURAMA (I know I posted this before, but its just so awesome)

My two favorite cartoons of all time. However, I also liked these....

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 14 2007, 04:03 AM

HOLY SH*T, I forgot about Scooby Doo.

Posted by: Robin Nov 14 2007, 04:05 AM

HAHA I love those pics dude.


OMFG how could I forget teenage mutant ninja turtles!!! I was a super huge fan of that when I was a kid.

Posted by: Soul_Decision Nov 14 2007, 04:05 AM

Yeah, I remember Zoids. When you check out that site it has a huge list of anime you can watch .
I'm currently watching the Zoids series

Posted by: Spiderusalem Nov 14 2007, 04:06 AM

How could you? (I'd also add superfriends to my list lol but only because they are part of my favorite drinking game)



Save them and show your friends

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 14 2007, 04:07 AM

Sorry, but I just had to add this.

Haha ok.

Posted by: Soul_Decision Nov 14 2007, 04:09 AM

Lol, How do you play that?

Lol, Pokemon was awesome back in the day.

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 14 2007, 04:10 AM

I used to be a pokemon junkie back in the day. I kind of miss those days, good memories.

Posted by: Spiderusalem Nov 14 2007, 04:13 AM

Everytime Superman says something like "I'll have to use my super <insert random made up super power here> to defeat so and so" you take a shot

Everytime Batman says something like "Luckily I have my Bat-<insert gadget/function here> to aid me in this situation" you take a shot

Everytime Robin says "Holy <insert exclimation here> Batman!" you take a shot

Everytime the wonder-twin powers active, you take a shot (after dying a little bit on the inside)

but if you wanna get REALLY messed up, you take a shot after every catch phrase.

Posted by: Soul_Decision Nov 14 2007, 04:14 AM

^ Sounds like a fun game.

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 14 2007, 04:15 AM

Sounds fun.

Holy sh*t Batman.

Posted by: Spiderusalem Nov 14 2007, 04:19 AM

take a shot!

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 14 2007, 04:21 AM

I'll just smoke a cig instead. No alcohol.

Posted by: Spiderusalem Nov 14 2007, 04:22 AM

yeah you tell yourself that. when you party with me theres a zero tolerance against non-alcohol.

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 14 2007, 04:23 AM

If I had some, i'd drink. But unfortunately I don't.

I guess we are partying sometime then.

Posted by: stratman33 Nov 14 2007, 04:43 AM

Posted by: fkalich Nov 14 2007, 06:57 AM

Used to watch Adult Swim before I executed my tv. Liked most of it. Including the Japanese stuff.

Not a cartoon, but my favorite greeting card.

Posted by: ActiveX Nov 14 2007, 07:06 AM

Dude, next time I go to Cali I'm definitely giving you a call

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 14 2007, 09:19 AM

Family guy!


The sheer amount of jokes like this:

"It's like that time when.."

and something completely unrelated and unnecessary are shown, but it works well!

hell yeah! I love family guy!! also:

• Dragon Ball
• Samurai X
• Beast Machines

And those are the only ones i can think right now lol

Posted by: Zephyr Nov 14 2007, 10:42 AM

I just looked at the thread, and it said "by FretDancer69 posted 2 minutes ago, with 69 replies"... kind of ironic.

1.Street Sharks
2.Mummies alive!
3.Animaniacs

Ah yes that was it

Posted by: Wyvernx Nov 14 2007, 11:42 AM

LOL! I was trying to remember the name of that cartoon, (Swat Cats) just a few days ago! oh I loved that cartoon alot!

Posted by: VinceG Nov 14 2007, 11:43 AM

Swat Cats was awesome. Too bad it was only 2 seasons. Im gonna try and find out if they ever released a box set for it

Posted by: ActiveX Nov 14 2007, 12:03 PM

Seeing that "Wacky Races" picture sure brings me back...I loved that show when I was a little kid
Completely forgot about that one

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 14 2007, 12:14 PM

I remember Street Sharks, that show was awesome.

I think I need to check out if they ever released some of these cartoons on DVD. I think I want to start buying some of these just to bring back memories, and for entertainment of course.

Posted by: Zephyr Nov 14 2007, 12:14 PM

No way! This wasn't actually a cartoon, was it?!?!

Posted by: Slammer Nov 14 2007, 12:27 PM

Posted by: VinceG Nov 14 2007, 12:36 PM

Posted by: mattacuk Nov 15 2007, 10:41 PM

Batfink ?

Posted by: botoxfox Nov 15 2007, 10:46 PM

Actually, the only thing I dislike with South Park is that certain words are bleeped out. I find that personally VERY VERY offensive...

Posted by: mattacuk Nov 15 2007, 11:27 PM

Its ok Brent, im pretty sure i watched one or two of those when i was very little

Posted by: Fsgdjv Nov 15 2007, 11:34 PM

Haha, I think it's hillarious! But that might have something to do with me being as mature as a 3-year old

Posted by: Animosity Nov 15 2007, 11:40 PM

I stopped watching it when they made fun of Bono. C'mon, U2 is me favorite band, mate!



Indeed

Posted by: mattacuk Nov 15 2007, 11:41 PM

LOL.... Funny you should mention that as I live for U2 !! I found it kinda hard to swallow but in the end decided to take it at face value!

Posted by: botoxfox Nov 15 2007, 11:42 PM

That episode is one of the weakest IMO.

Posted by: Animosity Nov 15 2007, 11:47 PM

Anyone remember this environmental friendly hero?

Nice! What did you think of - Wave of Sorrow?

Posted by: mattacuk Nov 15 2007, 11:50 PM

I belive you right, it wasnt good at all. I much prefer South Park of old, it was so much more funny when it was just suggestive. They have had to use alot a foul language just to keep it going, and I just dont like it much



Captain Planet Rocks, I even had the Amiga Game

I have not yet heard Wave of Sorrow, hopefully very soon! Actually, The Edge is my favorite band member - he is awsome. I have every CD and DVD released by U2, I also have most of the old LP's!

ZOO TV is my favorite tour, I love the Sydney one

Posted by: Animosity Nov 16 2007, 12:01 AM

Aye! ZOO TV was an amazing tour!

I'd have to say though, my two all time favorite performances of their's are:

1. Where the Streets Have No Name - Live on the rooftop in LA
2. All Because of You - Riding around on the back of the truck through NY


Something about those videos... man! Greatness!

Wave of Sorrow - All I can say is that its classic U2. Lyrical genius. I can't wait until the final version comes out.

The Edge is an amazing player, one of the greatest of all time! His style fits together so well with Bono's voice. There isn't another band that could ever replace U2 as my favorite!

Posted by: mattacuk Nov 16 2007, 12:06 AM

Those are great vids, My personal favorite is Where the Streets have no name - Sun stadium (Arizona I think). Its on the Rattle and Hum DVD, it makes my spine tingle every time i listen - Awsome stuff!

I also love it when they played with BB king, its too cool

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 16 2007, 01:05 AM

I've never really listened to U2 but now I think I want to check them out.

Posted by: mattacuk Nov 16 2007, 01:26 AM

But you must!

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Nov 16 2007, 01:32 AM

I started to watch videos on this site today, and wow, awesome site. Thanks for the link.
