Favorite cartoons & cartoon talk
(02-05-2017, 11:06 AM)Zpace Jockey Wrote: You know? Ben 10 was one of my favorite TV shows during its first incarnation. The idea of kid having a watch which turned him into various alien forms to combat threats both Earth and intergalactic level was a fun a interesting idea. Ben 10 was all-round great.

Then we have Alien Force. It used a different art direction, older characters, was darker, and had new aliens. Some were turned off, but I didn’t mind because saw it as a way of trying to take to the next level. All round good series as well. That is until Ben started becoming a jerk and too much emphasis was put on the aliens. Things got shaky in the end but it held together.

After that, Ultimate Alien became a thing,  the concept of having ultimate versions of aliens was pretty awesome at first. But then it took AF’s Darker and Edgier direction and turned up to ELEVEN. In just the first season, death became and omnipresent concept and it ended with Kevin becoming a monster and Ben of all people deciding to kill him. Not try to find a way to restore him, no. Despite his forgiving nature in the past, he decided it was neccesary to KILL a dude he’s become great friends with even though he clearly wasn’t himself. And things just got darker and more depressing from there with sadness, relationship conflict, pointless death, war etc becoming WAY too common a theme for Ben 10. It got so dark I just found myself not watching it anymore. And from what I read, I wasn’t the only one. Apparently, according TVTropes, UA got the lowest ratings because it became so unneccarily dreary.

But then we got thrown for a whirl with Ben 10 Omniverse. About that show, this pretty much all I have to say: while I apreciate the eforts to take the series back to it's roots, the way it was handled was.... it's just not my cup of tea, ok? Needless to say, I stopped watching it sometime after the Malware story arc (which was pretty good, btw).

Oh, and the more I see the new “reboot”, the more I want the main show timeline to come back. The worst part if that they’re doing it in the “Teen Titans Go/PPG” style of reboot. Just silly stupid comedy with almost 0 of the original timeline action.

Oh yeah, while we are at it, might as well start the always obligatiry "favorite alien" thread. Mine is Wildmutt

No specific reason, I just like him.

I use to watch Ben 10 back when it was new. I caught every episode up to season 3 where I lost interest. I did catch a few episodes of season 3 & 4, but the show seamed to drag on for a while. All I really know from the seasons I missed was that Ben gets a Wolf alien and Frankenstin-like alien forms and something about forever knights or something.
I caught most of the first season of Alien Force before that too lost me. I was busy with High School at the time so didn't really worry about Cartoon Network that much. I heard about Ultimate Alien and Omniverse (Omniverse almost got brought me back) but I have yet to see any of those episodes. I plan on marathoning the entire series one day (probably when I get the video games).

and if We are going to talk about best alien, we have to include Ghostfreak AKA Zs'Skayr (yes I did look up his real name). This is before he became the grim reaper in Omniverse.

Second favorite would be Big Chill
