Steven Spielberg Presents...... (Cartoons) - Blu-ray Forum

The_Basterd · 04-30-2010, 01:07 AM

Animaniacs

Pinky and the Brain

Freakazoid!

Tiny Toon Adventures

Toonsylvania

Who else watch these shows growing up? I remember when I was really young waking up every morning watching these TV shows. They were just great, and will always be a part of my young adolescence.

These cartoons are so brilliant and creative many classify (including myself) as some of the best cartoons ever. I bought a couple of the DVD's a couple years ago, and bought a couple more recently. The shows are just as good as they were when I was younger. Anyone else watch these when they were younger?
Favorite "Steven Spielberg Presents... Cartoon?" and if you want rank them!

My favorite is probably Pinky and the Brain. I've had that theme song memorized from beginning to end since I was a little kid.
I will add my rankings in a few minutes.

I used to watch all of those except 'Toonsylvania'.... never heard of that one. Pinky and the Brain was the best. Maurice Lamarche, best voice artist ever.

Animaniacs because they gave birth to Pinky and the Brain.

I had no idea Spielberg made cartoons. And I'm being serious...

Oh boy...better not let Stewie see this one

Loved Pinky and the brain and Tiny Toons....

Remember, Animaniacs also had classics like "Good Idea Bad Idea" and also "The Good Feathers"

These were great because these came from a time when producers actually thought kids were intelligent when watching cartoons and also believed that the parents were there watching with them supervising.

I have loved Animaniacs ever since I first started watching it in high school! I have the three released DVD volumes (where's the rest, WB?). Some of the characters were weaker than others, but my favorite by far were and are anything with Yakko, Wakko, and Dot. They cracked me up and Yakko fits my sense of humor to a T. I also got a kick out of "Good Idea, Bad Idea" and "Mime Time".

The_Basterd · 05-02-2010, 10:30 PM

I am about to buy Animaniacs Volume 2 on ebay for $10? I don't get this they have buy now's for $10, yet people are bidding on the same item for the same price? Do you think the buy now's are cheap knock off's or bootlegs? They are seriously cheap if they really are brand new? The list price in stores is "WAY" more than that!
I already bought Pinky and the Brain Volume 2 and 3 on Friday. They were 8 dollars and 10 dollars each. Now I am having second thoughts on it's authenticity?
How are people seriously selling them for this cheap, if they are brand new?

Wow you are a freaking mind reader Basterd.......Just last week I was having a flashback to my childhood and was looking all over the internet trying to round up my favorite tv sitcoms and cartoons from the early 90's that remind me of being young and Animaniacs and Pinky where two that definitely stood out to me. I wish all of these had been released. There are so many late 80's and early 90's cartoons I wish I owned, like the Raccoons or Life With Louie.........

jono_0101 · 05-03-2010, 03:04 PM

I also remember Histeria!. I used to watch that all the time, but no, it is not a Spielberg cartoon. I t was just on the WB.

I have been watching Freakazoid! DVD all morning. Ahh... How I missed this show!

The only problem with watching a few of the tv shows from your childhood? You get really pissed when you can't find several of your biggest favorites.........Oh Life with Louie how i miss you..........

The_Basterd · 04-15-2011, 03:35 AM

Bump for the Tiny Toons thread.

Drewza89 · 04-15-2011, 04:11 AM

Freakazoid! is one of my all-time favorite cartoons. Those are the only DVDs that I've bought since diving into blu-rays in 2007. The Lobe was an awesome villain. Fanboy was great too. They should've given him his own spin-off.

I also enjoyed Pinky and the Brain and Tiny Toons. How I Spent My Summer Vacation is one of the best direct-to-video movies ever. I wore that VHS out.

SpaceDog · 04-15-2011, 05:38 PM

Real tight race between Animaniacs and Tiny Toons for me.

DawnShadow · 10-16-2016, 05:05 AM

I wish they'd release this as a proper complete series set.
