Mainframe studios cartoons
 
I do think that Anime is the best type of cartoons but cg animation is just as good.

Mainframe is a canadian company in duh... Canada and they make the best computer generated (3D) cartoon series ever!

I will admit that the Final Fantasy movie was pretty cool but Mainframe were the first company in the world to manufacture a cg cartoon called Reboot.

If you've watched one of these series then its made by mainframe:

* Reboot
* Beast Wars
* Beast Machines
* Action Man
* Weird Ohs
* Shadow Raiders

Reboot kicks ass, after that mainframe lost its creativity with all the other gay shows.

1. I prefer cell-shaded stuff like JSRF (that's not a TV series), The Simpsons and Futurama
2. Wasn't the baddy in Reboot called that?
3. Hmm, Futurama sometimes uses some sort of a 3D cell-shading technique in certain parts of the show, but Reboot is probably the best ALL 3D TV series...in fact, I can't name any all 3D thing on TV that's aimed at my sector of the demographic and Reboot was the only 3D thing on TV when I was iccle.
4. I loved that when I was iccle!

I used to watch reboot...the graphics are still amazing, and that was a while ago...I missed a bunch of the plot though, so now when I tune into it it makes no sense.

Also, Mainframe was (if I remember correctly) the city/realm thing that Reboot was set in.

Oh yeah, that was it.
I remember that:
Hexadecimal was a baddie with lots of faces
Hack and Slash were two very similar robots that worked for a baddie
It was good at the time

Mainframe was the name of the city (computer) the main characters lived in...
Megabyte was (is) the main badguy...

I just discovered last week that Cartoon Network is airing NEW episodes! I thought it ended after the computer "rebooted" and Megabyte was gone and the old version and young version of Enzo coexisted, but now there are new episodes where there are also two Bobs and Megabyte has mutated.

the main baddie in Reboot was Megabite. (hey does anyone remember the special relationship that was between Megabite and Hexadecimal? I won't spoil it for those that don't know! *grin*)
Anyway...loved Reboot, was one of my fav's when I used to watch TV...

I cant keep up with the new Reboot. I always forget to watch it. I turn on my TV to Toonami on Fridays, and there is always a Batman movie on or something like that... :(
