I'm a 90's kid & I grew up in a time where cartoons were drawn by real people & not so much animated by computers. My favorite cartoons are anything from 50's-90's or early 2000 cartoons. I like all the classic disney & nickelodeon cartoons. Stuff like Popeye, Lonney Tunes, The Flintstones, Scooby Doo, Charlie Brown, The Lion King, Beauty & the Beast, Hey Arnold, Little Bear, The Rugrats ect. back in my day, cartoons made kids & adults laugh & they were meant to be fun, they gave kids a break & a childhood, cartoons had drama or they had dangerous situations where characters got angry, & where the good fought the bad & vise versa, argued, or sad. Nowadays most cartoons are educational... parents & teachers are supposed to teach their kids these things, not a TV show. Why on earth do parents let their kids watch modern educational cartoons? By letting them watch cartoons like that, you're shoving education down their throats & at such young ages! Kids have plenty of time to learn these things in school. I'm glad I grew up on classic cartoons, it made me a better person & they gave me a childhood worth living.
@PetMom, I totally agree with you on that, but there's a difference between life lessons & all these new cartoons that are teaching multiplication, division, addition, subtraction, counting, letters, colors ect. I probably should've mentioned exactly what kind of educational cartoons.

Obama's been getting his talking points from his advisor:

Chilli: Love lib logic: Bush did it, so the affirmative action guy can do it too, 10x as much too!
strat: Touche, you got me with that one.
Obama offering 4 trillion in cuts in 10 years & asking to raise our debt by 2.5 trillion this year kind of remind you of cartoon "Popeye", where the character Wimpy would frequently utter this phrase:
""I'LL GLADLY PAY YOU TUESDAY FOR A HAMBURGER TODAY""
He was a glutton, and would consume burgers at a ferocious rate but could rarely pay for his habit.
To: My bad
The Obama administration, as well as few of his predecessors, much of the media and many economists, tend to equate failure to raise the debt limit with default.
That's not precisely true.
The Treasury Department estimates that the federal government will collect a bit more than 3 billion in taxes during August — roughly billion just in the first three days. But, during August, the federal government is expected to spend 7 billion. That is why we have a problem.
If the government is not able to borrow more money after Aug. 2, spending will have to be reduced to the amount of revenue that the government has. That would require roughly a 44 percent cut in federal spending.
This will almost certainly hurt. But it's not the same as default.

To: Dr. Killpatient
During August, interest payments on the federal debt will total roughly billion, meaning that there will be sufficient revenue to meet our obligations to creditors.
In addition, some 7 billion in government bonds is expected to come due during August, and will have to be rolled over. Though this rollover requires Treasury to enter the debt markets to purchase new securities, it is not technically "new" debt, and so does not run afoul of the debt limit.
The concern is that the U.S. would end up having to pay higher interest rates on this rolled over debt. That's not a trivial concern: A 1 percent increase in interest rates could cost taxpayers more than 0 billion per year.
Still, we should keep that in perspective — it's less than the amount that the government expects to borrow this month. And that is sort of worst case scenario. In 1979, the federal government actually did briefly default on its debt as the result of a debt ceiling impasse (as well a
as technical problems). That resulted in just a 60-basis-point increase in interest rates.
If we are really worried about a hike in interest rates, what about the hike we can expect if we fail to get federal borrowing under control? Both our deficit and total liabilities are already higher as a percentage of gross domestic product than Greece — or any of the other failing welfare states of Europe.

Does any of these come on tv anymore and if so, what times and channels?
On Cartoon Planet they would show classic cartoons mostly Looney Tunes, Popeye, or MGM cartoons. And in between the cartoons, & the commercials they would have skits and songs performed by Space Ghost, Zorak, & yours truly.
Do they have any show on CN that might be similar?
Or are we gonna have to get Cartoon Planet back on TV again?
Brian, they should replace all the live action shows with Cartoon Planet, SGC2C, and the Brak show.

This coming from a guy who constantly manipulates and abuses weight demands, and the fanboys eat that garbage up.
Too ‘little’ to fight Cotto at 147. But he’ll gladly take Miguel’s belt at 145.
Too ‘little’ to fight a 147 guy at 154. But he’ll gladly take a vacant belt at 154 at a 150 catchweight.
Too ‘little’ to fight a 154 guy at 154. But he’ll gladly let them announce him as a 154 title holder. Not his fault by the way – blame his management. He just wears the belt.
Too ‘little’ to fight Mosley after his one-sided beating of Margarito. Can’t do it unless it’s at 142.
Then ‘little’ man JMM, a 135 champ, calls him out for a 140 fight, and suddenly dude ate his spinach, sang “I’m Popeye the Sailor Man” and won’t fight below 147.
--Meanwhile Martinez NEVER made any such requests. All he wants is an opportunity to fight the guys ranked ahead of him in the P4P rankings. Guys who fought at super welterweight already. Sorry if those facts offend you & if you somehow think that's bullying you idol.
i grew up watching popeye, bugs bunny, flintstones, jetsons, scooby, pink panther, woody woodpecker, tom & jerry, and many other timeless classics. they used to be on every saturday morning, now they are never played. they seem to have been replaced with all this computerized anime junk that aren't entertaining and just don't have the same feel to them as the oldies. i heard somewhere that they banned these cartoons because they weren't PC. if that's true then we have gone waaaay overboard. does anyone miss those great oldies or am i just an old geezer??
isn't it ashame that cartoonms made 50 to 70 years ago are more entertaining than cartoons made last week?
I remember watching this movie when little (in 1989)... I am trying to search the details of this movie online but can't find any record what-so-ever, which is strange...
It was: a) black & white, b) in english, c) overall a comedy movie, d) the popeye character had strong forearms as in the cartoon...
Anyone has any info?
Thanks!
Thanks for the replies.. no it was not Robin William's movie... (I clearly remember that one). And like I said, it was not cartoon...
& what cartoons do you hate?

Why are classic Looney Tunes, Popeye, Pink Panther, etc. better for adults & new ones like The Simpsons, Spongebob, etc. better for kids?-I LOVE old cartoons & I'm 38 yrs old.(whoever get's the best answer wins 10 points)
As of my answer; Old cartoons not only "RULE", but they have "MORE VIOLENCE"!!!-& I love it!!!
Yes, I LOVE the old Tom & Jerry!-MORE Violence!!!
there's looney toones/bugs bunny/etc., pink panther, popeye, tom & jerry, (who did I forget?)-I wanna order some classics that are extremely funny.
I have a new science teacher and she looks nearly *exactly* like Belle from Beauty & the Beast. Not even joking. She is actually Belle in real-life form. It's sweet!
So, have you ever seen anyone who looks like a cartoon character you've seen in a tv show or movie?
BQ: Have you ever seen a person with a tattoo of a cartoon character on them?
I saw a guy with Popeye the Sailor on his arm. Needless to say, it was awesome.
a Bugs Bunny movie similar to Cat in the Hat & The Gringe, Popeye portrayed by Michael Myers and Jim Carey and Robin Williams respectively. Even a movie like the Flinstones falls into that category of cartoons being brought to life in the big screen.
Which current Hollywood actor would be perfect to the Bugs Bunny role? Keep in mind his voice and his look .
Robin Williams was brilliant as Popeye, John Goodman was good as Fred Flinstone, and both Carey and Myers were both good in their own Dr Seus movies.
