What was once fun no longer is.

Most cartoons from my childhood are almost unwatchable these days. Dx

Well... Not all of them, I still love Fairly Odd Parents and Hamtaro just the same. Still, if I ever catch them on TV sometimes I just sorta cringe then change the channel. It's a real shame too..

Oh! And Pokémon cards. I loved Pokémon cards, now I just can't be bothered with them. I gave all my old ones away years ago. xD

They ruined it. Sucked all the charm out of it by making it CGI.
And Captain Scarlet, I mean what the fuck?

But...but...Captain Black had a new wonderful voice......

yeah ok it wasn't great, I absolutely love that series, the style is just amazing.

I always wondered if someone could make a real life, life size version of a angel jet....

My goodness that would be amazing....

For me um..... the new willo the wisp? Ok it wasn't tooooooooooooo bad.... But not great.

Mouse trap. That game used to be the greatest in my eyes when I was a kid but when me and some friends played it about a week ago we found it really boring.

Pokemon
I was a huge fan of this show, and I mean HUGE, but I can no longer stand it. I recently watched a few episodes from the first series and the Rise of Darkrai movie and hated every minute of it.

Dragon Ball, DBZ, DBGT
Again, big fan. Again, massively disappointed second time around.

Disturbed, SOAD, Rob Zombie, Korn
These four bands alternated as my favourite band throughout late grade school and high school. I loved all four of 'em, and owned at least three CDs of each. Now I can count on two hands the total number of songs I still like and only one hand the number of songs I still listen to from these guys.

Bambi
Why do I no longer love Thumper? Whyyyy?

You don't love Thumper anymore?! How anti-rabbit of you! XD

Trolling.

Thats right, I used to find fucking with people hilarious, until I grew a pair and a brain.

Roughly 80% of everything I watched as a kid I tried to rewatch later in life and found it to be terrible, just awful. This is probably because I more or less watched everything that came on TV back when I was young. I'd make a list of all the show I can't watch anymore but it'd go on for too long so I won't. Voltron, however, is so far the worst thing from my childhood.

 

[darth.pixie]

I used to watch He-man ... I never really understood what was going on since it was in english and I didn't speak english well at the time but I used to think "Man, that sword is badass, and I can hear the word 'skull' so it's probably awesome". Now it's just...creepy. That stylish bob haircut and the way he just...winks at me...

Spoiler

*shudders*

The Pirates of Dark Water isn't as cool as it used to be.

Mad Jack the Pirate is better. Probably because I can spot more stuff than when I was a kid.

"Mad Jack: Well, Snuck, these bars seems to be on tighter than a pair of Pamela Anderson's bluejeans"

Kid Me: Huh?

Old Me: Hehe, I see what you did there.

Another vote for Reboot. The original ones, they just started getting weird.

I hated the power rangers. Thought it was a stupid and unrealistic kids show. So I watched VR Troopers. Oh kids and their zany ideas.

Spinning in circles until you fall over. Just thinking about it now makes me feel sick.

Harry Potter. I never liked the movies but the books. I remember liking the first 3 and then they got worse with each new book. Is it just me or did nothing happen in book 6 except for the big thing at the end. I have since moved on and read bigger and better books and I went back to read the first 3 books and I cannot help but think how crap they are. This is not because I am older as I still enjoy books from when I was a kid, the eirly artimus foul books spring to mind, but I just think that harry potter is really, really, really crap.

 

[Quaxar]

I still love most of the shows I liked as a kid! Probably because I was a really picky kid.

But then there was Baywatch... I have no idea what made me watch that shit (not boobs, no sir) but I did.

 

[Ldude893]

Ed,Ed, and Eddy is the exact opposite of that. Found all seasons and I am in love.

Agreed. Shame that it's gone, it was the last original Cartoon Network show from the 90s.

I say we start a petition for the revival of Ed, Edd, n Eddy. That show ended before it's time.

Nah. The good die young and Ed, Edd n Eddy had a good run. It's best to leave it in peace.

Your just as bad as the Dursleys...well I got a solution for that...AVADA KEDAVRA!!!

OT: I still like all the stuff I liked when I was younger, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers is and will always be awesome.

For the first Time I acutally tried muliplayer...it was for Deadspace 2 and yes it was very very fun

to be fair I didnt try it out for very long (few days) but I can see how somthing like that would easlyly get old, which kinda reaffirmed my belife in Single player

how ever I think there are other games more mulitplayer focused so they might have more variety

(no one tell me anythign about the single player part)

They ruined it. Sucked all the charm out of it by making it CGI.
And Captain Scarlet, I mean what the fuck?

Whaaaat?! It's no longer stop-motion?! That's...that's blasphemy!

TF2. That is all.

Nah I keed there's plenty of other games with the sort of multiplayer that lasts pretty long and offers a nice amount of variety. The other trick is playing with friends, makes it oh so much more fun.
