Title: Adventure Time
Post by: Methid Man on April 05, 2010, 11:25:20 pm
Okay, I just watched the first two episodes...and honestly, I wasn't too impressed.

I just didn't know what to make of anything. It's like this show tries to be random just for the sake of being random. Now I'm all for random insanity, but this was just...stupid. I mean, it's certainly a different kind of show, unlike anything I've seen on Cartoon Network or Nickelodeon, but seriously, it all comes off as a waste...and certainly a waste of massive promotions come to think of it.

And like most cartoons of today, it tries way too hard to be funny and it's sad that in the end it just isn't. What the creators of today's cartoons need to realize is that if you're not sure something will be funny, don't try too hard at it. If it's just not funny, attempting to make it funny will only make it worse. I can name several cartoons from the 80's and 90's that weren't hilariously humorous, but at least they didn't try to be and they at least ended up being mildly yet pleasantly amusing to watch.

I just don't see this becoming the next Spongebob.

When I saw the first commercial for the cartoon, I pretty much said "Well, animation's officially dead"

I gave the show a chance and from what I seen it seems to be decent but yeah I would prefer to watch anime or a classic cartoon instead.
