Cartoonies

|

I've been watching the following new cartoons, and liking them quite a bit: Kim Possible, My Life as A Teenage Robot, and Teen Titans. I particularly appreciate how the anime-esque Teen Titans even goes to the trouble of having its theme song in Japanese. Anime themes often include random bits of English, particularly in the chorus, so what goes around comes around, or something. Actually, they all have pretty bouncy, hummable themes.
On the other hand, I haven't yet been able to warm to Spider-Man: the "high-impact animation" and "cutting edge cinematic effects" are just too distracting and ugly to my eye, whereas the much more highly stylized (and admitedly limited) animation of the first three is just groovy. "It ain't what you got, it's the way how you use it."
