still no live action Jonny Quest?

This is nuts I have to say. I'm a major cartoon nut if you know anything about me. My favorite network as a kid was cartoon network. I was there watching everything on that channel. Still goes down in my opinion as the best network on cable for all the amazing stuff they put up for it's long duration. Can't say I'm very fond of it nowadays but in the internet era, it's truly obsolete. They're struggling to survive in a world where everybody watches everything online now. I personally am done with TV. I get video, news, entertainment, all from my computer, so why bother with TV anymore. Makes no sense.

But damn is a live action JQ movie long overdue. Would have thought we'd get that before TinTin, brilliant film.

I used to watch tin tin when I was a kid, good shit. That and Rupert were good shows about stuffy british kids going on adventures and shit. That and babar and madeline. Still haven't actually sat and watched that live action madeline movie. Now that I got a dick, it's probably going to be tough to sit through it without thinking dirty things, then again. At my age now, I kinda look at kids as my own offspring more than feeling aroused in any way by them.

Striking really. I'm at work and I'm thinking about how I feel about seeing a little girl and I'm thinking in my head, she's going to be smoking hot one day, but then again she's just a kid right now, much to learn. Odd, never thought about being a mentor to children but there I was thinking about it...

I'm just kinda pissed about it dammit. I'm a huge Jonny Quest fan. Hell, huge fan of anything intelligent that came out during the 90s cartoon boom. We need a live action Reboot movie Live action Jonny Quest movie. What else, endless possibilities. Wouldn't mind if they took half the shit I saw as a kid and upgraded it to live action. Mighty Max, Mega Man, Bobby's World or some shit like that...

There's a lot of stuff that could be done very well as a movie. Oh of course. Dexter's Lab. Sadly one of the most popular ass raping biggest shows of the 90s has been left behind and forgotten by hollywood.

If I had the power, boy would you see an awesome Dexter's Lab movie. The thing about Dexter's Lab was how limitless the show was. It was about a boy genius and the life he lived hiding his huge lab from the world. What a great show, what the hell is taking hollywood so long to make a movie about it?

It dominated Cartoon Networks. They probably showed it 5 times a day back when I was a kid. It was the channel's mascot, yet we get fucking live action versions of everything else except good ol dexter. Doesn't make a butt fuck of sense to me...

I mean I guess it's low on the list of things to convert to live action in hollywood. They're still working on a lot of stuff from the 50s and 60s and 70s. Now we're seeing a lot of 80s stuff get the live action treatment. Transformers being the most recent thing. Speed Racer of course exemplifies this although that movie really is more cartoony than the show ever was.

Dragonball kinda almost got done well in Live action. But no, not really.

What I mean when I say shit gets the live action treatment before Dexter is Last Airbender. That movie is just, I mean nothing against it, but Airbender came along WAAAAY after Dexter was in his prime as a series. To have a live version of him and his journey, nothing against it, but Dexter was KING of Cartoon Network, KING. To get a fucking avatar movie before his movie is truly insulting.

But I'm not surprised. Hollywood gave us batman and robin afterall. They're fucked in the head. Just would love to see a live action version of Dexter for once just to bring me personally back to my childhood and forget I'm getting older.

What else could they do... Definitely upgrade some of the best Nick cartoons from the good ol 90s and early 2000s. Invader Zim, Angry Beavers, Hey Arnold, rocko.

Again, spongebob gets like fifty movies and Dexter gets SHIT. How does that make sense?

A live action Doug would be interesting. We all spent so much of our lives watching that little shit head live his stupid life, might as well make a movie about him.
