Adventure Time Discussion

[PerseusRad]

I didn't see a thread for this, and it isn't breaking any rules that I could see. This thread is, obviously, discussing the Cartoon Network show, Adventure Time. This is a show about a boy and his dog who go on all sorts of crazy adventures, hence the name. This show is in its 4th season. Feel free to discuss anything relating to it.

I'll start us off. Do you think Jake will ever use his powers to the max?

I used to think this show was good

Until it basically turned into a bunch of saccharine crap

Even if it has improved since then, I'm not watching it

The show is slowly getting worse. I haven't seen a good episode since last December. but it was great in its 1st season.

 

[PerseusRad]

I see. It does have somewhat immature humour, but Gelatino, Finn has a new love interest. If it interests you. Flame Princess.

P.S. It said my thread had 0 views and 2 replies. How the.....

It just proves Adventure time is taking a twilight turn, actually. Finn X Bubblegum VS Flame princess, that made me stop watching it.

One of the better CN shows. That's not saying much though.

CN sucks *** nowadays...
The old one was better.
Most people in my school think Adventure Time is one of the worst.

Pshaw, Adventure Time is algebraic. I enjoy watching Finn and Jake kicking butt.

 

[PerseusRad]

@PKMN That is mathematical. I hope people don't start spamming, no offense DA, "Old CN is WAY better than the new!" That is very nice, but not really on topic as this is about AT only.

The show scares me. It could be because of the animation style (the bold colors and lack of shading hurts my eyes), or its content. It could be both. We have a DVD of some of the episodes, so I have seen a bit of the show, but I didn't like any of the episodes. And the whole time, I was sitting there wondering if my parents could hear and understand everything, a lot of the innuendos were so blatantly obvious. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind it when crap gets past the radar, but I prefer it being subtle or clever like how the Animaniacs (or heck, many of the 90s shows) did it.

I have a friend who says I should give it another chance and just pay attention to the side characters, but when I make up my mind, it takes a lot to convince me.

PB and Finn need to get together. Imjusssayian'.
It's a mega funny show. One of the rare ones Cartoon Network is doing right (that and Regular Show).

I really like Adventure Time, I still think it's pretty funny and it has more mature references. Plus there's LSP, who's just awesome.

 

[SmartD]

I've seen this show, it's a pretty neat, although lately I've been missing new episodes. Has anyone seen this week's episode? What will happen next since

[spoil]The Lich now has the Enchiridion[/spoil]

 

[PerseusRad]

Who knows? He may use tge knowledge to his advantage to find a new host. Inside Jake. Purely speculation though.

Same here!

Not crazy for that show-WAIT! I Don't like this show!

It uses words that aren't appropriate like 'cr*p','as*', cru*, and others...

 

[Zazie]

I like it, but I also haven't watched an episode in a long time* so I can't comment on whether its gone downhill or not.

I really like the sense of imagination it has, with all the weird fantasy peoples.

*sadly I do not have cable

 

[(·-·)(o_O)]

I actually liked that show in the first and second season but I don't watch it much anymore

 

[SmartD]

Has anyone read the Adventure Time comics? I got one from Free Comic Book Day and it's pretty neat.

 

[TheBluePorygon]

I personally think the show has fallen of the cliff into the pit of "Terrible CN Cartoons"

 

[Profesco]

I still like Adventure Time. So far as I can see, the only way it has changed is that now there seems to be an underlying continuity to the stories, which I appreciate.

I think I started out liking it because, whereas Cartoon Network's lineup included mostly toilet humor or stupid humor (the humor was about stupidity, I'm not saying the humor was stupid itself - though my opinion isn't far from that) as seen in things like Flapjack and Chowder, Adventure Time was unexpected in its use of phrases ("algebraic!") and plays on standard adventure game elements (like that dungeon cat monster who knew almost exactly everything) to create novelty. I dislike Regular Show, Adventure Time's apparent "sibling cartoon," because it too relies on the humor of stupid. I don't think stupid is funny; I just think it's stupid.

I also don't like Lumpy Space Princess too much. Episodes with her in it tend to be less appealing to me.
