New Spongebob movie on the way.

I really hope Hillenburg works on this. If it's of the same caliber as seasons 4-8, I'm not touching it.

Only Samurai Jack really deserves a spot there. Ed, Edd, and Eddy was pretty puerile, and Johnny Bravo facile. But Samurai Jack was pure art.

Johnny Bravo was great, as was Samurai Jack (each in different ways), but Ed, Edd and Eddy was aggravating, obnoxious, and stupid.

Since this thread got brought up again:

I've been re-watching Batman Beyond on Cable, and dang is that a freaking good cartoon. It still stands up against the best action cartoons out there.

Johnny Bravo was cool. I had forgotten about that show. I really loved Samurai Jack, miss that show. The rave episode and chicken Jack episodes were awesome. Plus, everything with the Scottsman

I was watching that today and was thinking, "man, I forgotten how badly Terry got his ass kicked on this show" :lol: . Seriously, I saw him smashed into a ceiling, get a cement mixer dropped on him and have his back almost broken while also getting stabbed in it. That's a damn good suit Bruce gave him 8)

There are three things that made me truly love Batman Beyond

1. The uncut version of Batman Beyond Return of the Joker
2. Bruce and Terry's appearance in the Justice League Unlimited episode "The Once and Future Thing"
3. The masterpiece that was Justice League Unlimited Epilogue. That episode alone justifies Batman Beyond's existence.

Have you heard of the new Batman Beyond comic book?

I'm not sure how to respond to that. The first movie was the bad kickoff of the show's decline. It's hard to believe it's been eight years since then. The show has gotten so bad. It'll have been ten years since the first movie by the time the new one is released. I doubt the quality of ideas will improve in two more years.

On the other hand, maybe this movie is one last chance to do it right.

I consider it the last gasp of quality before the end. Sure it has a lot in common with "new" Spongebob, but that's because the show from then on tried to imitate the movie (badly.)

That's what I'm hoping for. I'd like to be able to look forward to a new Spongebob thing one last time. I can remember when I was 10 and I looked forward to every new episode and DVD of Spongebob, knowing it would be great. I'd like to have that back, if possible.

Has anything new come out lately? I'm not in on the new stuff besides Regular Show and Courage the Cowardly Dog, when it starts up.
