Earthworm Jim... echh. They could have done so much better with that show. The only good part was the theme song, which was one of the funniest cartoon theme songs I've ever heard. The game was awesome, they need to bring it back for the X Box.
Old Nickelodeon was awesome. They had stuff like Pete and Pete, the original All That (before it got taken over by a bunch of high-voiced pubescent no-talent teenagers and Britney Spears' little sister), and a lot of other stuff. Since then it's been on a general downward spiral, staying afloat with a few lack-luster movies and, once in a while, a surprisingly good cartoon that's either cancelled before its time (Invader Zim) or completely ruined by changes made for some inexplicable reason.
What's Neverhood? What's Catscratch? Post some l1nk4g3z, j0.
You know what is really needed? A good animated science fiction or fantasy for the big screen. So far the only things I've seen that really fit into that category are Titan A.E., which was great when first I saw it because I was a little kid, and the Pokemon movies, which I have to admit are technically sci-fi/fantasy in a very loose sense. Is this the best the world of animation has to offer to the silver screen? I hope not.
