ITT: /co/ in 1986

Someday cartoons will be good again and not consist of the Smurfs and He-Man.

Anyone know when issue 7 of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comes out?

I just went out and bought a Mac Plus. Knew it was a good idea to wait until they finally had a damn hard disk on these things.

I give DC six more months before they bring back the multiverse.

Maximum Overdrive was the worst fucking movie ever. I want my three bucks back.

Stick to writing books, Steve King.

Will Walt Disney animation ever recover after the debacle that was The Black Cauldron?

I sure am excited for that TMNT cartoon!

I know some people said it's gonna be shit and juvenile but I'm sure it wont be!

I'm sorry but Batman as some cranky old dude is such a dumb idea. If we ever get a Batman movie, I hope they never adapt this garbage.

Also, Mel Gibson for Batman

Pixar is really declining in qual--oops, wrong generation.

>>90016483
No, now it will be Don Bluth for ever!
I mean, have you seen who they picked for The Great Mouse Detective? Some nobodies who never did anything before and whose career will stop right after that.

Everything good will come out of it actually.
A world where borders exist and where you can cross a border and enjoy a completely different culture and environment compared to the one before it;
is a vastly less boring and monotonous world than one where everything is mixed into a pot of distasteful shit like Globalism does by boiling a pot of vegetables, fruits, eggs, milk, meat, chocolate, until you have a puke inducing mixture.

Nationalism ironically makes the "multi" part in "multiculturalism" exist. Without it there is no "multi", there is no variety, there is only one brush of gray paint that's nausea inducing.

Very nice dream of nationalism you have there. Shame in practicality a nationalist population leads to violence, war and division.

Nationalism is a tool of the state meant to collectivize and manipulate individuals. It's window dressing for service to the government.

>>90018775
As opposed to globalism?

Are you really that fucking naive? Same fucking shit, different words.

"A Rose by any other name..." and all that shit.

>>90018770
You didn't put forth an argument, you simply explained your twisted, juvenile view of nationalism. I can't counter an idea in your head. I'm not going to change your mind that nationalism isn't everyone singing kumbaya and staying in their little boxes being perfectly happy.

It's like if a communist came into the thread and happily explained a dream marxist society. It's pointless.

No, /pol/, I'm not part of the "enemy".

I mean as opposed to individualism, and liberty. Collectivism is a cancer. Nationalism exists only for the government to enlist the service of it's people. That's all it has ever been used for, and it's all it ever will be used for. Sure, you can play with the dreamy little idea in your head, but in practicality it just won't work.

>>90018792

>>90018821
Nationalism is a bad idea because it's almost always been used as a weapon of manipulation. It's used to get people to serve the state. Whether it's the deliberate encouragement of jingoism in the British Empire in the 20s and 30s so they could cling onto territory, the fight against the USSR during the Cold War, or the rhetoric of the Nazi regime.

>>90018851
I'm neither American, nor do i read news sites.

Whether Russia or USA, both are the same to me.

Justifications are irrelevant, political messages are irrelevant, a tyranny of one is as bad as a tyranny of another.
I'd prefer both of them to never cease, because both of them have things that i like, and i can enjoy those things as an individual and exploit them.

Again, keep your stupid at a lower level.
I am not here to change the world like some infantile teenager who thinks he's a superhero all of a sudden. I'm here to enjoy the world and don't like seeing it become culturally poorer because some Globalist fucktard wants to mix everything up.

>>90018883
Thank you. That's a fair argument. I don't have anything to really contradict those points.

>>90018864
There's no point to argue you thickskulled retard. What you're describing makes no real sense. You're confusing nationalism, multi-culturalism, globalism and monolithic culture to try and make this dreamy point that is seemingly inarguable.

Not having a monolithic culture is a good idea? Whoa fucking calm down Einstein, you should go explain that to the ten remaining stalinists in the world and perhaps some remains of the Roman fucking empire. Who would have thought?

Anybody heard of the new Mighty Mouse? They better not ruin a classic. Ralph Bakshi is working on it so it will rape my childhood.

And that's a good argument. Again, thank you. More than anything else, I just want to hear a clear and reasoned argument against my own view points. How in the fuck else can I learn?

I will admit, I still hold to my beliefs, but with what you've presented, I need to strengthen my argument. And it will work like this - either I can find the argument to strengthen it and counter your point, or I can't. If the latter, then I will be forced to change my mind. I don't believe in holding to an ideal that can't be held up to scrutiny.

That's why cartoons are shit these days.
It's all easily manufactured shit that's basically simplistic merging of circles, squares, triangles, and simple lines, filled with color,
all easy to copy paste and rush out in episodes.

Old cartoons meanwhile had crazy fucks hand-drawing and hand-painting every single detail with complex lines and using depth with lighting and shadows, making complex yet visually rich shit. That took shitload of time and was not easy to get out as fast as managements wants it to.

It's the same with weeaboo anime.
They've stopped doing that old sci-fi mecha and spaceship shit with debris and visually complex and rich frames for the whole timeline,
and focus on moeshit school-environment faggotry which is easy to do, doesn't warrant many effects, is easily copy pasted, uses lots of stock imagery conversion, and is fast to dish out.

You mean cultural appropriation.

Don't worry. I predict in the future, liberals will become enlightened and ban this barbaric practice. No one will ever assimilate again.

Usenet and bulletin board systems, yes. Not the internet we know now, there were no graphics.

I just read this comic called Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, it's like X-Men and Daredevil combined!

>>90016021
He-Man is such a progression in animation it looks so smooth and fluid

Can you imagine a cable TV network for Cartoons? That would be awesome.

goo goo ga ga

>>90016021
Can't wait for that Ninja Turtles video game for NES

>>90016021
These X-Men are good. Damn, I would like to read more of them, especially Wolverine.

>>90021858
Yeah, he's such a great character, I don't think I could ever get enough of him.

>>90021858
I hope X-Men gets movies that are good one year and bad the next

ALL PRAISE SHOOTER

SHOOTER IS MERCIFUL

SHOOTER IS GREAT

DEATH TO OUR ENEMIES

I heard superman 4 is coming out next year the franchise has really overstayed its welcome lets hope they don't do this to another DC character

>>90016021
I am 1 and what is this?

>>90021961
Let's just hope they don't make a Green Lantern movie where the costume is special effects

>>90016021
I have great hopes for the Fantastic 4-movie I hear they're making.

>>90022007
Speaking of movies, I'm hearing that Warner Bros. has hired that kid Tim Burton to direct that Batman movie they've been talking about forever. Yes, obviously the director of a Pee-Wee movie is a perfect fit for a grim superhero of the night. Seriously, what are they thinking?!

So Superman is just a personality that Clark Kent puts on to save the world? THAT'S THE STUPIDEST THING I'VE EVER HEARD!

Superman with his super powers is what makes Superman great! Without them he's just a stupid farmboy! The new Superman reboot is going to flop and flop hard!

Seriously, I'm giving up comic books until the REAL SUPERMAN comes back!

Batman, grim?

Yo dude, Batman's brightly colored splat! They've even got a comedian to play Batman, Michael Keaton from Mr. Mom and Beetlejuice!

This is going to be the cheesiest movie in the world! Sure feels good to be a Superman fan and bad to be a Batman fan right now, They're going to keep making Superman movies until forever and the new Batman movie is going to be the last Batman movie for decades!

By god, the pretentiousness in those articles is palpable. I wonder how many of those net.comics posters are posting now on /co/

It's kinda ironic that people who get that mad on 4chan generally get called out by others

Yeah. mainly inhabited by university students and tech hobbyists.

BBS, Bulletin Board Systems.

Connect to server, log in, read and post shit, chat using IRC, exchange software, email.

Sorta the precursors to forums or Image Boards like 4chan (albeit, without the images obviously.)

Hello, 1986 /co/, I am from the far-off future of 1996.

The Clone Saga is going to suck. You'll get what I mean in about eight years.

Does anyone else like doing lines of coke before reading comics?
It just makes the experience feel so much more magical.

Also is anyone afraid WW3 is gonna happen? Those commie bastards are just crazy enough to start something. I think I heard some guy with a russian accent shopping at the comic book store. What would a Russian Spy want would comic books.?!

>>90024086
I understand that people have different tastes, but why would you brag about marvel having the longer running books when DC factually has the longer running series. it doesn't make them better, but still

>>90024806
Even back then they had shitposters making shit up just to sound cool.

>>90023917
Wow. Thanks

I'm so tired of hearing about Apple, Star Wars, and Trump.

Surely, the future will be free of these things. Surely.

Surely the scooby do franchise can't get any worse than this, can it?

Reading the marvel USENET stuff it's very interesting. It seems most shooter hate comes from the original Secret Wars and to a minor degree X-Factor, though i'm not sure if that one was his decision.

back in the early 2000 they used to be really public about being furries.

Best movie Disney has ever made, all my friends have shit taste.

>>90025507


They're talking about Jason Todd. Pre-Crisis Jason Todd was just a Dick Grayson Clone (he appears in Man Who Has Everything and most people think he's Dick). Post-Crisis Jason is the edge-lord we all know and hate, though I don't remember exactly when new Edgelord Jason first appeared.

Well the definition of culture is
>societal norms and traditions unique to a specific collective/tribe/ethnicity/nationality/etc. which define its identity.

Apart from religion, the vast majority of the traditions and norms defining a culture are made up of entertainment mediums.
Architecture, which is to be visually enjoyed.
Dressing, which is to be visually enjoyed.
Dancing, see above.
Music, which is entertainment as well as a medium to pass on stories, with rhythm and tonal rules specific to that collective and also revolving around specific instruments that are traditional to that culture. A general musical identity can form depending on the history of a culture, say the Russian obsession of darker and deeper tones, or Chinese obsession over high pitched mystic and spiritual tones that move towards trance music.
Food, which is ordered and presented specific to that culture whether out of spiritual rules binding certain ingredients, or meal recipes popularized throughout the whole collective with roots from it.
Sports specific to cultures.
Etc. etc. etc.

So yeah, cultures do in fact exist to entertain. To observe. To enjoy and also learn from. To inspire.
The worst enemy of inspiration is a lack of variety and diversity to feed it.

Hey guys it's 1986
