| 2574 | Article | munkysrench | I was definitely impressed with the Dark Knight series with Bale as Wayne. Especially when they brought Bane in the last one and summarized the Knightfall comic series. It pissed me of when a lot of non-readers bashed it hard without even knowing the story line in the comics, when I thought it was done very well. Another series I'd suggest is the Batman | Aug 28, 2015 |  | |
| 2521 | Article | Vaporman87 | Wow. This had a surprisingly high amount of facts unknown to me. I didn't even realize BraveStarr was Filmation's final outing. Nor was I aware that He-Man and She-Ra were originally going to be love interests. That just creeps me out to think about now. LOL Also, Dave Coulier gets around my friend. Smurfs killing people doesn't actually surprise me that much. That Grumpy Smurf was just a hair's breadth away from killing the whole lot of them.

| 2523 | Article | Benjanime | actually dave coullier was the one who provided the voice of peter when season 3 came along. one of the transformers voice actors replaced arsenio hall. | Little Known Facts About 25 of Your Favorite 80's Cartoons! | Aug 14, 2015 | |
| 2524 | Article | Vaporman87 | Yeah, I knew he replaced Lorenzo Music as Peter. That had me wondering if he really did replace Arsenio, doing two voices on the show. | Little Known Facts About 25 of Your Favorite 80's Cartoons! | Aug 14, 2015 | |
| 2525 | Article | onipar | Oh that Dace Coulier, what *can't* he do!? :-p Great article of facts. I loved reading this one. I didn't know a single one of these things. Retro-rating approved! :-) | Little Known Facts About 25 of Your Favorite 80's Cartoons! | Aug 14, 2015 | |
| 2526 | Article | OldSchool80s | Fun stuff, thanks for sharing. The Droids song was not only written/performed by Stewart Copeland, but also Derek Holt of Climax Blues Band. I asked him about it in a recent interview I did with him. I have also published interviews with Jymn Magon who helped create/develop Disney afternoon cartoons including Duck Tales as well as Christy Marx who wrote/developed Jem | Little Known Facts About 25 of Your Favorite 80's Cartoons! | Aug 14, 2015 | |
| 2527 | Article | kstrom22 | Stewart Copeland also had a hand in another beloved franchise, though this was video games: he did the music for the original Spyro the Dragon Trilogy. I love how descriptive Japanese titles can be. The Japanese title for "Despicable Me" is "Mysterious Thief Gru’s Moon Theft," and the title of "Being John Malkovich" is "John Malkovich's Hole"...errr Fun article, I love learning about things from my time and earlier. | Little Known Facts About 25 of Your Favorite 80's Cartoons! | Aug 16, 2015 | |
| 2528 | Article | Hoju Koolander | The greatest reveal you provided for me was the Dennis the Menace and Phil Hartman connection. I used to watch that cartoon all the time, but I never realized the same actor I enjoyed as Cap'n Karl on The Pee-Wee Herman show/Pee-Wee's Playhouse was voicing Mr. Wilson! The error on the Ghostbusters fact threw me for a second, but it did remind me that in an interview with Ernie Hudson, who played Winston in the movies, he said that he auditioned for the role on the cartoon, but the part went to Arsenio instead. Isn't that crazy? | Little Known Facts About 25 of Your Favorite 80's Cartoons! | Aug 16, 2015 | |
| 2548 | Article | Vaporman87 | I absolutely picked up on this phenomena, even in my youth. This was especially prevalent when stations would air back-to-back episodes from completely different seasons. The characters would seem totally out of whack. This was such a fun read. I liked this line: "Sure, he won, but that's not really something that should boost the kid's confidence, y'know? It's like giving People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive cover to the St. Bernard from the Beethoven movies." Sometimes the character development would go in a different direction too. Maybe a character would become more bossy or become the "leader". Sometimes one character would begin to become the focus of the show, leaving other characters with the crumbs. These types of blatant changes would sometimes annoy me. Other times, it might seem to suit the direction of the show. I suppose the cast and crew of a show don't really know what the audience will respond to better until it's been on the air for a while. And then they attempt to adjust things to suit what they believe is the desire of the consumer. All part of showbiz. | Sitcom Characters Who Got Stupid | Aug 20, 2015 | |
| 2549 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @Vaporman87 Yeah, that different seasons in sucession situation was a great way to notice those changes. The other scenario is when the breakout character takes over the show, like Urkel or The Fonz or when they ditched the main character siblings on California Dreams and made Sam, the exchange student the main character. | Sitcom Characters Who Got Stupid | Aug 21, 2015 | |
