Memorable TV cartoon characters of the past and present

Yes, Bugs Bunny and all his WB pals were great. The children loved the slapstick of it and even the adults loved the more mature overtones.

I think the most memorable TV cartoon characters were any and almost every toon released in the 80’s.

Lets list a few of the cult classics.

Voltron, Thundercats, He-Man, Dungeons & Dragons, Robotech, G.I.Joe, Transformers!

Toons from the 80’s have birthed cash crop toy lines and major movie productions. Come this July, Michael Bay and Steven Spielberg will release a live action Transformers movie!

Granted Bugs and friends along with the old Disney black and white shorts, I think the 80’s toons will forever be cult classics.

My vote goes to Optimus Prime! When transformes made its first animated movie, and Optimus was killed by Megatron, there was never such a moment or such an uproar of fans. That in its own is a major step in something as simple as a cartoon. In GIJoe the animated movie, Duke was speared in the heart by a snake thrown by evil Serpentor. I was in shock! It was another milestone that many will remember.

So, when Transformers is released and has had its box office run b4 its DVD release, we can look at this comparrison:

Looney Toons: Space Jam w/Mike Jordan…it grossed $90,418,342

Transformers 7/4/07…….?

My prediction of most memorable with a ‘Mice of Men’ twist…

Robot tend the Bunny!…crush!
