Why?
>>81390435
how did they Eustace? his voice actor died.
>even their original cast dislike it
Source?
>>81390473
He has a much, much different voice. They didn't even try to find an imitator, they just gave him a new voice.
>>81391623
anyone got a link to this?
>>81390435
Eh. Not that the PPG reboot is good, but it's better in the end that Courage was left alone, I think. Let sleeping dogs lie.
>>81390435
>Courage not getting a reboot
Courage is perfect the way it is right now, it doesn't need a reboot.
>>81390435
You never get what you want anon, that's life.

>>81390435
Its because they couldn't make Courage for a progressive audience. The episode that was released was pretty much like the original episodes which caused some bigwigs at CN to flip out.
>>81391931
One should complain one another is shitting on their plate. Even if you don't have to watch it, it's still shit and should not be tolerated or they will think it's okay.
>>81390473
>>81391623
They got the guy who played the Sicilian from Princess Bride.
>>81391869
Normally, I'd agree with you, but John R. Dilworth's in rough shape and he could've used the work. If a full series had looked even half as good as the short and the few clips he shared around, it might have been worth it just to put him at ease.
>>81391988
Yeah it was pretty sad that his dirty birdie kickstarter failed miserably
>>81392032
The guy was trying to drum up attention on Twitter with hashtags and shit despite having fuck all for followers at the time.
It was so depressing watching him trying to salvage a project that clearly had no chance in the first place.
>>81392032
>>81393612
I'm still amazed that while it ended up getting cancelled too, the Longhair and Doubledome Kickstarter ended up getting more pledges then Dilworth's.
I'm always scared I'm going to wake up to find out that Dilworth killed himself
>>81390435
Why would you want it rebooted? It was perfect the way it was, and do you really want CN to fuck with its message of not everything is monstrous and bad, even if the creature in question is scary or hideous in outward appearance?
>>81394652
I thought L&D made their goal.
>>81393612
>>81395450
People just can't take his level of weirdness
Its a damn shame
All this take about poor dilly is making me wonder what happened to the dirty burdy redux thing he uploaded?
>>81391869
>let sleeping dogs lie
Did you just
>>81390435
Instead of rebooting shit, CN should be focusing on creating new IPs. Isn't that where the real money is?
>>81400605
This but CN is just lazy now
>>81395450
Fuck, now you've got me worried too
>>81393612
>>81392032
>>81391988
oh jeeze i had no ide about this
poor guy
>>81400667
It's sad that Nick is creating original IPs while CN is just focusing on reboots.
>>81400605
>>81400667
when are we getting CN upfront? what was the last 'new' IP they even had, back in 2014?
>>81400864
There's We Bare Bears and Long Live the Royals. The only new shows that have been announced for 2016 are PPG and Ben 10.
>>81400946
jesus
>>81400982
Unless Lakewood Plaza Turbo gets greenlit for a show, 2016 will be a very bad year for CN.
>>81401103
i think that has been greenlit but for some reason they put it out first as an app game. even then that pilot is years old. same with royals, hell WBB even. they don't have ANYTHING new.
>>81401103
I thought it did.
>>81401204
CN is still keeping coy about it.
>>81401194
>they don't have ANYTHING new.
>CN puts out a bunch of shitty reboots
>Their original shows look even better by comparison
Poetry.
>>81391623
Fog of Courage's Eustace is Wallace Shawn and, as much as I love the guy, his voice coming out of Eustace is distracting as hell.
>>81401316

Another thread confirmed Uncle Grandpa is getting canceled, so that's one less original show. More room for reboots eh?
Merchandising. PPGs have always been one of Cartoon Network's best brands. They're trying to reinvigorate it for the lucrative youth market instead of just college backpacks and ironic lunchboxes.
>>81401985
Well, it looks like the Ben 10 reboot found a new spot.
>>81402043
But they already have AT and SU for that. Why dig up a corpse and put makeup on it?
>>81402043
does craig even see a dime of those profits? i doubt it.
>>81402122
Nope. CN owns the rights to the show which is how they got the reboot up and running in the first place (Notice how Craig's name has yet to appear on the reboot?).
So while CN lines their pockets, Craig loses his show on Disney.
>>81401646
stop it, anon.
>>81402164
he's mentioned as creator, but yeah, sad situation.
it is because of disney that he isn't involved, though, CN did contact him first. shame. regardless craig is going to pitch his next thing to disney... that says a lot about what he thinks of CN now.
>>81390435
>3D shit
>>81402043
this
it's all about the merch, the reboot's basically an ad campaign
it's actually a pretty smart move business-wise since it probably doesn't cost a lot of money to produce and they're still introducing the franchise to a new generation
>>81390435
I prefer it be left alone. Faggots these days would rather watch shit like Steven Universe anyway.
>>81401569
>>PPG premieres
>>"Have a week of new episodes!"
To be fair, that seems to be of the norm for premiers, so that when they do reruns the next week they have about 5 episodes to work with instead of just say 1 or 2.
I'm fairly certain they did the same thing with We Bare Bears and Uncle Grandpa.
>>81404295
>am i cool guys, am i 'in' g-guys
I wish we had more ambitious cartoons like Courage.
It really used the medium of animation to an extent that's rarely seen. Very unique looking characters. The blending of 3D, Claymation, and live action with its traditional animation to create a kind of eerie discordance. It was very unrestrained. You have episodes that vary incredibly in substance & tone. Courage always felt like a show that was bursting with creativity. Honestly, I never thought it was the funniest show, but I still loved it immensely because it was INTERESTING. You honestly didn't know what could happen on a new episode of courage.
>>81404323
He doesn't like it, and he doesn't have to
shut your little faggot face
>>81393612
Someday, Dilworth. The new generation just isn't ready... ready to be scared.
To this day it's because of Courage that I can't find horror movies scary. Nothing compares.
>>81404295
Hey, faggot.
Some faggots would like to watch both, faggot.
>>81396879
Nope. Only 14,000 out of a 175,000 goal
Dirty Birdy only got a little less then 7,000.
>>81402121
Because the Powerpuffs are CN's most successful show in their entire history and thus exploitable for the international market, which is what this show and the Ben 10 reboot are aimed for.
>>81390435
Never forget.
>>81396661
because the original creator would be on board?
PPG Reboot doesn't have Craig on board at all
>>81405816
>Number 3 swears
It was a good prank, but seriously it would have been great.
>>81400605
Unfortunately, trying something new has no guarantee of doing well, so it's in the company's best interest to reboot old cartoons from the 90s (which has become insanely popular in the last few years as millenials have been talking with their wallets) and renewing fan favorite shows that are also cheap to make (like TTG)
>>81391572
Craig, Lauren and even Tara Strong have stated that they hate the new reboot.
But it's mostly because they got replaced.
>>81390435

someone should go check on him

That's why.
out of all the cartoon cartoons, courage is the only one they replay daily on boomerang
why is that?
>>81403587
>regardless craig is going to pitch his next thing to disney... that says a lot about what he thinks of CN now
no, it's in craig's contract with disney that he has to pitch his next idea to them before he's allowed to shop it anywhere else
>>81406759
>this bait again
they've been pushing the reboot hard before it even aired.
>>81401569
>>"Have a week of new episodes!"
They do this with every single new series.
They don't want new shows. They have their own Spongebob (TTG) and they will milk it to the end of time.
>>81406850
>current Boomerang
Who cares?There's actually no way you can watch The Flintstones or any other classic HB show on TV anymore.
>>81407099
Boomerang shows an hour of the Flintstones every night at like 3AM, followed by an hour and a half of Smurfs
>>81406759
>PPG reboot

>>81400605
But what about Bunnicula? Yes, I know that it's relatively old thing, but it never had cartoon series to begin with.
>>81400605
>>81400605
>tfw they will never do another season or two of WAC to inject new talent into the network
Interestingly enough, I got thinking about GameShowNetwork the other day and realized they sorta followed the same trajectory as CN, in that they began having a large assortment of old syndicated shows but little to no original content. When GSN was new, I used to love watching all the old vintage episodes of Deal or No Deal, Press Your Luck, Card Sharks ect, but nowadays GSN pumps out garbage show after garbage show, relying on Steve Harvey's Family Feud like it was their Spongebob/TTG.
>>81393612
I love this guy's work and it saddens me he hasn't had another animated cartoon.
>>81408586
to be fair a whole network centered around gameshows sounds like an awful idea in the first place
i think it could work if you could somehow also add video games, card games, and board games in there. and maybe some non-traditional sports like paintball. so a games network
>>81409264
I'm not sure what else GSN does these days besides make shows that die quick deaths, but yeah the network idea itself isn't that great, I mean if you're tuning in you're already more into gameshows than the average person so they're not creating a growing audience there. Besides, all the great gameshows are part of regular networks where average people can watch even with shitty cable, stuff like Jeopardy/WheelofFortune/PriceIsRight that are regular network fixtures.
It's weird to think cartoons were once the same way, relegated to a few timeslots on the couple major networks around at the time before CN was a thing.
