Posted August 2, 2010 (edited) What was that TV show where the kids had to gradually make their way through the tower, to the top room where they had to look for a key. It had like...a giant bowl of cereal tasks and shit? Y'all know what that was? Edited August 2, 2010 by ReZourceman Automerged Doublepost Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 2, 2010 Finders Keepers? Nah not Finders Keepers. Similar ending though. They worked their way up a tower. I watched an entire episode of Finders Keepers earlier, (reminded by Shorty) Check out Neil Buchanans gag at 0:45 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They just don't write jokes like that any more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 2, 2010 (edited) Some more nostalgia. And this one, even though it is fairly modern was ruined when they changed it. Edited August 2, 2010 by Jimbob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 2, 2010 Many many moons ago, I saw a few episodes of a cartoon. The intro had small animals living in a forest, and a general theme was magic/wizardry. The intro music was, or was similar to, Vangelis' Chariots of Fire. I have given up on ever, ever remembering or discovering what this cartoon was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 2, 2010 It was never as good as Pokemon, and most of the battles were just people talking and activating trap cards, but fuck me what an intro: It's time to d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d- DUEL! Sick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 2, 2010 So ... much ... nostalgia! I give up commenting on it all as there's just so much greatness in here! I don't think I've ever heard you swear before, Dannyboy! Really? I'm no angel when it comes to language use. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 2, 2010 (edited) Nostalgic as I am, I can't resist such a thread. Mysterious Cities of Gold and Jayce and the Wheeled warriors were my 2 favourite cartoons (next to the obvious transformers), but I watched a lot of stuff of course. Those 2 were already posted though. It's also funny, you can make a fair guess of a person's age judging by his choices . There's plenty stuff here that may be good, but I wouldn't consider classic (yet) or not retro at least. It also unfortunately shows that the quality was much better back in the day, now only good stuff comes from japan, and can be hard to get.. Oh, and Voltron may be a classic, eventhough I remember little of it (I remember very little in general ), but that intro is just shit . Just start already!! Anyway, I'll add: Macron 1 Robotech Back in the day, Dutch kids grew up with a lot of English cartoons, but some were dubbed. Nowadays though, it's worrying to see everything dubbed, even reruns of old cartoons that once were not dubbed. Anyway, this one was dubbed back in the day, but I'll leave you with the English version. Teddy Ruxpin I am going to expose you to some Dutch though, for this one, there's no other way: Alfred J(odocus) Kwak Edit: Thanks Retro-Link, can't believe I actually forgot "that other one Dutch cartoon". Here's the original Dutch opening of David de Kabouter (David the Gnome as you call him). The illustrator of the book this cartoon is based on, was born in my hometown (check my location). David de Kabouter Also dubbed here, but I'll leave you with the Japanese version Wizard of Oz And there are plenty more. For laughs though: Transformers (Japanese rmx) And in response to the Iron Man intro posted earlier (I have never even seen an Iron man cartoon..) Iron Man classic So this was the British version? What the fuck did you people do with it? Fort Boyard can still be seen in France, and it's the only gameshow I can still watch today. It's just epic. Anyway, this is how it's supposed to sound. Fort Boyard Edited August 2, 2010 by Sméagol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 2, 2010 Alfred J(odocus) Kwak OH MY GOD! FUCK YES! Alfred Kwak (Rasmus Rap in Danish) was so amazing! Fort Boyard I remember what I think was the Danish version of this. I was way too young to watch it (a bit scared of it), but I was always fascinated by it, and the theme song is simply fucking epic! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 2, 2010 not a show but does animated movie intros get better than this? As a massive transformers fan as a kid, this movie owned all. Especially these parts But back on topic... There is one animated movie intro that is better.. COBRA!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Melissa Messenger and Leslie Grantham was in it so I find it weird how I remember Smeagol's version and not Jimbob's remix version. Did they play both versions, only I remember Smeagol's version being played throughout the show. ...also it makes for a good theme tune to run to, haha. Another good theme tune to run to is... ...also, Finders Keepers and Fun House = WIN! Edited August 2, 2010 by Animal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 2, 2010 Yeah I thought that was the theme I remembered aswell, not the slight remix. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 2, 2010 There is one animated movie intro that is better.. COBRA!!! I have to agree here - I adore Transformers but this intro absolutely kicked/still kicks ass. It wins the thread without question. Shame the film wasn't on par with the Transformers movie though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
