New X-men Animated Series and more!

[graffiX]

When you have kids it's either watch something you can also enjoy or suffer through some crap like "The Fresh Beat Band" or any number of lame Disney shows with snarky, smartass kids that you want to punch in the larynx.

I'm so glad that Marvel makes cartoons for this reason...

You forgot: iCarly, Jessie, Ant farm, and Justice.

I am glad Marvel is putting these cartoons out too. And although trying to talk a 6 year old girl into watching an Avengers cartoon is a chore....it CAN be done.

They should the designs from Disney's X-Men. Anyway I think combination of the formats from Justice League: Unlimited and Young Justice could really do wonders for the this series.

This is so exciting if it's true!

I wonder if they might do something like X-Men: Beyond.

Honestly though, am I the only one that can't get TOO optimistic about these new Marvel shows? To me, the fact that they're on Disney XD pretty much screams two or three seasons max. Disney seems intent on airing these shows on Saturday mornings, and while I haven't checked, I'm pretty sure the flagship Disney Channel probably has nothing but reruns on during that time slot.

If Marvel is actually serious about competing with DC's animation block, they're going to need to air their shows on a channel everyone gets.

Hopefully they can go through and carry it out. It'll probably be along the lines of EMH and USM.

Motorcity seems like it must be really cool. But I'm in Canada so Disney XD/Cartoon Network are against showing their cartoons here.

My biggest peeve is if they give them all 90s Disney "hair".

That show looks TERRIBLE.

I seriously question the legitimacy of any website that publishes an article and feels like they have to abbreviate and/or misspell the word "About".

You need your eyes checked then. I realize that a lot of folks can't recognize good animation but seriously Motor City has it. It has everything: good animation, interesting character design... hell that's all you need. It does not look like anything else out there, nothing that I've seen anyway. Granted I've never watched an episode of it, only trailers and clips but it looks EXCELLENT on a technical level.

I won't get my hopes up. All the cartoons since TAS have been awful :/

That's strange. TAS is pretty much unwatchable unlike the others.

Eh, tastes differ. Most of the polls I've seen online though, like in this forum, rank TAS as the best cartoon by far.

Well NEVER have it in Canada!

A lot of people can't remove Nostalgia glasses. It's the only way that most episodes are even watchable. There's some good to it or at least there was but the show has aged terribly even for a show from the early 90's.

Wouldn't know. Have not had any form of cable in almost a year. There are certainly online sources though. Not that I care that much, it looks good on a technical level but I'm not exactly interested.
