You know what I absolutely hate? When 80s children go onto retrojunk and youtube, flame the shit out of any 90's kids, and go rambling on about how the 80s had the best cartoons, movies etc.
There's this one guy on retrojunk named "Caps 2.0" who always says "Never use the words cheesy, campy, and corny when referring to the 1980's." Well, how can I not use those words, considering the 80's were jam packed with them?
About the cartoons, most of the 80's cartoons were low-budget toyline-based cartoons. There were very few original ideas. And even when there was one, they always made this huge hit out of it with toy lines and everything, even if it wasn't all that popular. An example is the Transformers movie (no, not the 2007 live-action one, the 1987 animated movie) which was a total flop.
The 90's on the other hand had some really original ideas, like "Rugrats", "Ren & Stimpy", "Rocko's Modern Life", "Eek! The Cat", etc. The 90's even had some really great original live-action kids shows (in the 80's, there were like, 3 live-action kids shows on the airwaves). But the 90's gave us "The Adventures of Pete & Pete", "The Secret World of Alex Mack", "All That", "Kenan & Kel", and in the later part of the decade, "The Famous Jett Jackson". There are just so many reasons why the 90's had their own unique style from the 80's. So, cubbi1987, Caps 2.0, xreddragonx, and all the other 80's Nazis out there- SHUT UP AND STOP SPOILING THE FUN WITH YOUR 1980'S FANBOYISM!
