Cartoon Network had previously lost the rights to air the SM movies, but got them back recently. HOPEFULLY, this time they should air without a hitch. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/smile.gif"><P>Word has it that this go-round of movies will include:<P>Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz
Dragonball Z - Lord Slug
DBZSpecial- Bardock: Father of Goku
DBZSpecial- History of Trunks
Dragon Ball- Curse of the Blood Rubies
Dragon Ball- Sleeping Princess in Devils Castle
Dragon Ball- Mystical Adventure
Tenchi Muyo In Love
Tenchi The Movie 2: Daughter Of Darkness
Tenchi Forever (Edited w/...ahem...a certain scene omitted ^___^)
Batman Beyond - Return Of The Joker<P>It is POSSIBLE and RUMORED but unlikely that the 2 Jonny Quest movies (Invasion Of The Cyber Insects, Jonny's Golden Quest) may air as well, but its doubtful And MAYBE - MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYBEEEEE Pokemon - The First Movie.<P>
Now the second bit of news - AND THIS IS BIG.<P>Popeye has been THE MOST mistreated cartoon character for the past decade - but NO MORE! <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/smile.gif"><P>Popeye The Sailorman returns to CN!!! With the black and whites UNCUT for the first time in gawd knows HOW MANY YEARS.<P>
For those that have seen and/or remember Popeye - there are over 400 cartoons total and Cartoon Network ONLY ever shows a handfull of Black and whites and the 40-50's paramount colors. Roughly 1/4 of the series. The majority of those black and whites were redrawn into color in the 1960's and look ABSOLUTELY HORRENDOUS as opposed to some of the gorgeous black and white 3D backgrounds many of the older ones were given. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/frown.gif"><P>200 of those cartoons are Fliecher/Paramount and Famous Studious and the second 200 are the Kings Features and Hanna Barbera cartoons.<P>Word is - negotiations are being made to get the other 200 Kings Features Popeyes, but as for the Black and whites (Taken from the Cartoon Research website):<P>
<IMG SRC="http://www.cartoonresearch.com/poptitle.jpg"> <P>"I'M POPEYE!", from the line repeated in the Fleischer classic cartoon HELLO, HOW AM I?, is the title of a new half hour of classic Popeye cartoons to begin airing each week on the Cartoon Network directly after ADULT SWIM.<P>This formatted series, in the vein of THE BOB CLAMPETT SHOW and TOONHEADS, will feature three classic Popeye films, <B>fully restored, uncut and complete with the original Paramount opening titles!</B>
In between the cartoons will be informational bits about Popeye and the Fleischer Studio. <P>I urge you to watch this show. This is the kind of thing Cartoon Network should be producing. And if it suceeds this could mean MORE uncut showings of Tom And jerry and Looney Tunes stuff. Most likely we will NEVER see the WW2 Popeyes that had horrid japanese stereotypes, but they will show the ones previous to those that havent been aired in _DECADES_.<P>With no video release in sight, this may be your only chance to see these animated gems. Get your VCR's and blank tapes ready!
