I was born in 1981 and I also don't stay stuck in the past. Splatoon, that's not nostalgic to me - that's fresh to me! Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse? I hated superheroes as a kid, so no nostalgia there. Set in the modern era with a new art and animation style, I absolutely love it! I'm glad to see fresh new ideas being done.

even in small dosses nostalgia is cancer.

@@rafresendenrafresenden.1644 what did you enjoy when you were a kid?

@@jlev1028I just move from the past. I can't go back.

People are always terrified of change, it's been in history forever, change in anything is feared, has been, always will be. I don't just mean in media, I mean in anything.

nothing truly changes at all, if something tries to change too much to being unidentifiable, maybe that's too much of an problem, pokemon - sonic - star wars - halo, never changed too much, the fans are just guilty of wanting to live inside a pokemania-like bubble with those franchises, if that's the case, then the nintendo switch's fan image is a good example, of the former's not living in that phase

Spongebob being an example on how that’s been refined

@toastyboi exactly

Depends, some new shit is straight awful garbage 🗑️

Oh no, my dislike for new things has nothing to do with nostalgia. New things are just bad.

Eh, new stuff will be old one day and trash and forgotten compared to stuff that came before it. Facts. If it sucks it sucks. And older stuff isn’t better because it’s old its better because it just was better. Pizza is old but it’s still one of the best foods. And top foods. 🍕

Strange since TheCartoonGamer did say that Rise of the Ninja Turtles actually had a rise (no joke) in terms of having a dedicated fanbase (the movie as far as I heard actually did well). Kinda reminds me of my story with the TMNT since I grew up with the 1980s turtles and 2003 and when 2012 came around I wasnt liking how they made the turtles say Booyakasha when its Cowabunga (didnt realize it was like the 2003 show where they were trying to move on from the 1980s incarnation) as well as the way the turtles acted not like brothers but more like how shows nowadays does comedy. Be mean spirited, non humble, Rick and Morty types of toxic where theyre husks of themselves since I saw Raph, Leo and Donnie shush Mikey in the most infamous way possible when I saw footage of them back at SDCC. Then came 2014 Tmnt with Michael Bay (cause everybody hates Michael Bay for what he did to Transformers and almost TMNT) and now we had two reboots that were inconsistant with each other. I was thinking the Ninja Turtle fans would never find peace and back in 2014, the Mikey meme caused alot of fans and such to blow up because it "raped" their childhood. HOWEVER, after seeing the film a bit at my local KMart and seeing footage of the Michael Bay produced TMNT and seeing the turtles as well as Raph being a good brother, I was starting to reconsider my actions since this toxic thinking led me to believe the Live Action 2014 movie wasnt as bad as people thought it was. By the time that I was in Hawaii, I went to the Toys R Us there and still saw TMNT 2014 and really rethought about my way of thinking and gave in. The TMNT 2014 movie, while not perfect or the greatest movie ever, reconnected my love to TMNT, especially made me love Raph even more (Raph and Mikey are my Turtles since Im the hardhead but also love a good party). Heck I loved all the turtles and after that movie, I never thought negative again about TMNT and actually support the next incarnation since its sequel was even better (I wont be supporting the Seth Rogan movie, he did Sausage Party and read about what he did during his "Invincible" show, which is why I dislike Robert Kirkman since he hurted the fans of Walking Dead Live Action and to me is a dangerous guy since he hired Justin Roiland *ahem Going to face trial for what he did to his animators ahem* and to me, no thanks I dont support bad creators). Still, I would rather watch 2017 Rise of Ninja Turtles than what is gonna happen to that Seth Project. Sorry for the long thing, but I needed to tell the story of how I overcame toxicity (even in shows that arent like the others). Thank you for reading.

Yup. I admit I was guilty as well when it came to hating the 2012 Turtles even before watching it. I grew up with the 03 Turtles, and thought the 2012 series was a "replacement". Then I actually watched it. And honestly, it's just as good. Maybe not better. But far better than I ever thought.

There was nothing more frustrating than being a tmnt fan in 2018 when rise was released, we were being handed the greatest tmnt cartoon ever crafted and the fanbase just squandered the fuck out of the moment

while I wasn't the biggest fan of rise's choices, I love the animation, and appreciate that they made a show that was unique, like a good chunk of adaptations of the turtles whether it be movies, shows or even the comic, there's usually at least one big difference. the idw series, which is considered definitive ninja turtle comic to get into, has the turtles and splinter be reincarnations of 4 students and their master back in ancient japan, (I haven't got into the comics yet, but I'm sure they're still mutants though, so it isn't that ridiculous) I grew up on 2012, but I found the 2003 show when I was watching Turtles Forever back when it was on youtube. this was obviously before 2012. but I like both a lot and Rise gets a pass from me, my only real complaint is the fact that they don't use their classic weapons anymore, and donnie just rockin' a tech stick.

I didn't watch much of 2003 TMNT at all, and the Turtles Forever episode was really awkward and unpleasant to watch and that was at the time it came out. However, I also like what 2012 did in general and I would like to see episodes I missed if the mood strikes me. And I grew up on 1987 Turtles. ;)

It can be a very dangerous drug

Sorry. But gaming sucks today. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with playing old games or shows.

The gaming may suck today. But we'll have to call you an oldy who likes old technology who relies on extremely slow dials.

@Alexander Capanov and I agree with you. The last generation where I was excited about the hobby was the 7th and even then it was starting to decline. What with the overabundance of call of duty influence in everything and the focus on hyper-realism. 8th gen was okay, switch sort of carried it. Aside from Metroid I personally do not think the titles Nintendo put out were improvements to the series they released titles for such as Mario and Zelda. Now the 9th generation I haven't been compelled to even bother buying a console at all and switched to PC gaming where I just play old titles. Games I'm interested in now are so few and far between it's not even worth it and when I am interested it's mildly at best.

@@ralcolfwolfcoon8207 I understand modern gayming is in hot sh!t, nowadays. Seeing bunches of corpos go ... well ... full-on corpo is really depressing to me, but that doesn't change the fact that there's still more good new games have been released. Just don't give those corpos money and use them to support devs that cared about their product and you're golden. Wish I can say the same to those normies who kept on buying Madden every year.

Always good to see Samurai Champloo getting some love. One of my all time favorite anime.

The 3D sonic games have now gained this weird cycle. Adventure/Colours redefined the tone & style of the series after it began falling into irrelevance from mediocre games. Positively received at the time, exclusives to their consoles but have received a botched port & a modern audience thinks they’ve aged poorly. Adventure 2/Generations is the anniversary game & regarded as one of the best in the series. But they also introduce things that’ll negatively effect future instalments. Heroes/Lost World is the weird, divisive entry that tries a new gameplay style whilst mixing old & new. Shadow/Rise of Lyric is the shitty spin off. 06/Forces is the one that returns to the old gameplay style but is rushed & “ruined the series”. Unleashed/Frontiers tries a brand new gameplay formula that’ll define future games but is held back by issues that have plagued past games.

What TF are you talking about? Reviewers (including youtubers) still defend and praise Sonic colors (whilst they openly trash on the Adventure games). Was that not obvious enough with the release of Colors Ultimate? I wish Sonic Colors would get the same treatment the Adventure games got in the 2010s. But that's not gonna happen. People are just being more open about why they don't like the game. They're not running smear campaigns against it using the unpatched Switch version and pretending it was "always this bad". Edit: And considering most of Colors' praises were blatant lies. Lies about it just being "the daytime stages from Sonic Unleashed", lies about it being a "3D Sonic game". I'd say the backlash was a long time coming. And don't get me started on how it supposedly "saved the franchise" (what a joke XD). Play the DS version, DIMPS actually did a good job on that one.

That game is dogshit, was in 2010, is now. No nostalgia required, a shitty game, with a shitty story that set a shitty boring as all get out trend for a franchise that was previously interesting.

@@kingbash6466 Doesn’t help either that even as a fan of colors, the way sega itself has hyped the game up in the past as a “true transition to 3D” has probably ruined the game a lot for some people, who feel that the adventure games were way better in comparison. But yeah, you aren’t wrong when you mention that it’s bizarre how colors has retroactively became the “Sonic Adventure” of the modern era. I mean, shit, it even has the port that somewhat ruins the base game a bit.

@@kingbash6466 I'm assuming these negative reviews are ones from smaller channels. Because almost all the big mainstream channels seem to have a positive stance on colors. I guess I see what you mean about an upsurge in negative comments on Colors. I think it's different however. It's more so the 2000s fans after years of experiencing belittlement, and gaslighting from the gaming community at large (reviewers and youtubers combined with their followers mostly). And dealing with the endless double standards. Having lost their patience, and just going on the offensive. It's not ideal. But it's certainly not the same as for example what Game Grumps did to the Adventure games (and by some extension Heroes).

You do win, it's just they keep grasping at straws despite the fact that they lost.

Case in point: the foreclosure of Blue Sky Studios and the Cartoon Community's response two years since Disney posted that announcement across social media. Bittersweet as it was to see a recently acquired Fox asset sacrificed for the sake of Disney recouping profit they lost throughout 2020 and early 2021, there are more constructive methods of honoring Blue Sky's legacy than creating fan petitions out of spite toward the Mouse House.

Those people aren't looking for new things for themselves; they just don't want others enjoying "bastardizations" that could give "false impressions" of the past. Real or perceived. They're basically saying to put modern creative energy elsewhere so they can dunk on it instead of fear it.

I was a kid when teen titans go came out I hated the show as I didn't like bathroom humour but I was disappointed that there wasn't more substance to the show like the original show

Ironically now Megaman fans want the return of them. Especially legends left on a cliffhanger and star force had a cancelled fourth game. This is especially true when u see the amount of praise fans have when the battle network series is coming to switch

I would love to see a brand new megaman series and am looking forward to BN collection!

Tbh, the RPGs still feel very far removed from the "main essence" of Megaman in a way from a conceptual standpoint. Does not mean that either is better or worse for it tho.

I was a kid when Legends came out and I played it around the same time as I had played X4. I love them both and combined with Mega Man: Battle & Chase, they were big for me becoming a Mega Man fan.

Yeah, I remember someone even saying that the Battle Network games were commercial failures and that the anime and merchandise kept the series alive. Like, how much do you have to hate something to spread misinformation about it? Battle Network 4 is the third best-selling game in the franchise for crying out loud.

@Alexander Capanov Spawn came on when a lot of people didn't have or want HBO. Now with HBO Max such a show would shine. Companies need to learn to respect the niche that are willing to spend money over large audiences that haven't invested yet. They bet too much on money not spent yet too often alienating people that would have spent the money. That's how they make no money, when newer people aren't interested and fans walk away

@@ch42965 Spectacular Spider-Man is a fantastic series, if you haven't seen it.

@@uanime1 Yeah. There's a fan comic called Things Change Continues that I see as the true ending of Season 5. It adds to original ending in a way that feels natural and satisfying while still keeping the message from Things Change intact.

We could've had the original show come back, but instead we got... that other show that still running for whatever reason.

@@PlahaKumar Apparently, they have no intention of bringing it back because that's how it was supposed to end

Young Justice

@@uanime1 Yeah, there's always that moment where we realize what we love is growing up with us. Nothing stays young forever.

the rise crew were pushed back at every second by nick, the show was completely hated by nick, they never attempted to advertise it, they cut it super short )meant to habe 5-7 seasons), the writers werent allowed to wriet it bow they wanted, amd oberall the show for ficked over,

as someone who thinks too much about the future, I agree. I was born in 2002 (21 and turning 22 this year) I will cherish the things that gave me joy but It doesn't mean the new stuff can't do the same.

I feel you I’m 26 (born 1998) and the whole “Generation debates” like “Millennials had the best this” or “Gen Z had the best that” is toxic too. I hate how people act like whatever generation Pew labels your birth year as, people act like you HAVE to like just Music/Shows/Trends from that era but truthfully while I’m Gen Z by Pew and like a lot of Gen Z shows/music, I also like a lot of Millennial shows/music and even Gen X too but when I listen or watch them, I try to do it casually instead of ruminating on it

at least they were one of the only cartoons good enough back then to have a movie made.

There were technically some tie in comics that sort of continued the story

The issue IMO is while I get the point I utterly reject the execution. Sure real life doesn't always have a resolution ... but this is entertainment. If you want to tie real world messages into your show you need more nuance than "Lol we ended the show on an absolute cliffhanger! Deal with it kids because life sucks!". You need to tie the message into the show's themes and events not just throw the story out the window and tell kids to get a real life message form that. For example a better way to do it would have been to flashforward to the future. Robin is nightwing again, Cyborg has moved on, ect. But at the same time maybe beastboy never met Tera again and maybe his romance with Raven never progressed. Maybe Nightwing and Starfire aren't dating either and still professionally fliritng. In other words show that no matter how much time passes somethings may not have a resolution. Some answers might NEVER be solved. Show that within the show instead of hard cutting the story and calling that a life lesson. This way the audience gets to see and experience THROUGH the show the lesson instead of just getting slapped in the face and expected to get it. The fact basically no one got the "message" and it had to be explained later shows how badly it was delivered. I can somewhat respect the attempt but really I think abandoning story structure for a message like that is just poor writing. If you can't tell your message without destroying the flow of the story ... don't tell it.

Me too. I hated these words so much (Especially Mid the most).

Sometimes when some people are like that usually there's something that correlates with such as having a mental disability. One of em being autistic... that usually plays a large factor. I say so cause this is something I go through too especially with the GTA series... Vice city and GTA 3 was where it was at and made a huge impact on my life when they first came out...

Ah I see you are a collector of culture as well

Nothing wrong wrong with that. Different strokes for different folks. I do it too sometimes when I have the money for it.

To be honest i would love to have some toys or similar i wanted as a kid I have a similar experience with some videogames my parents couldn't afford back then and now as an adult i can get them and even newer versions

I'd love to but I have other financial priorities like medical bills and curbing my overconsumption. Which why I feel like I'm getting fandom and con fatigue.

Glad to see this had such a positive impact. I wasn't sure what people were going to say about this video, but a lot of people are resonating. I know exactly what you are talking about, with a lot of things like I said in the video, but the AVGN is another example. I got into it late, summer of 2013 I spent most of my time binging those videos again and again. I was never super invested in the controversy, I had already stopped watching for the same kind of reasons, but I understand where you are coming from and I am glad you are on the other side, I know someone who was super invested in that drama and so, I get it.

Cyborg's voice actor is right about how life works with its lack of closure, BUT, stories are not life. Life is unpredictable and unknown, but stories are written out and planned. A good story should have a satisfying ending and that last episodes of Teen Titan was not a good ending at all. I'm not even talking about the message of it. I mean that it was unclear that the show was ending with it. It felt like a cliffhanger setting up a fresh plot hook. That's fine for when you have more episodes on the horizon, but not when you know it's all over.

@@rishnix Then you missed the point entirely. The ending was disappointing on first watch through, yes, but on repeat watches it's better because they didn't sloppily wrap things up. I can look back on it now as a better developed person and say "It's a bit of a downer, but i'm glad it ended like this" because that's just how life is, and art imitating life is my shit.

@@wrathfulgaming3373 Art imitating life is fine and all, but to do it with an animated show that embraces that it’s fiction and brought warmth to many generations is bound to not sit right with many.

​@@JsReviewsYou look like the type of guy who would be a brony

I can definitely relate with this. It's all a learning experience and realize that where there is love mixed with hate is a sign you're growing and reaching a certain stratosphere. I personally am not thrilled with the direction most companies (like Nintendo) are going, but it reminds me that I can put time and effort into other things such as artwork and my odd fascination with lost media and old game systems like the Sega Dreamcast (which was the last official console Sega ever produced - assuming the Sega Genesis mini doesn't count, but still has all the great classics like sonic, kid chameleon, and golden axe).

You just got overly attached to things that offer escapism. That’s probably the real issue there 🤷🏻‍♂️

@@CursedWheelieBin ?

@@KaminoKatie good analogy

Nostalgia is our moments of happiness. You shouldn't ignore it, nostalgia should be embraced. Something you watched as a kid can be good nowadays, and another things cannot. Living always in "modernity" will just going to lead you crazy, because TikTok, Shorts, social media, gaming is getting worse in triple AAA companies, cartoons, and movies are getting way boring now... Nostalgia is not a bad emotion. For example, Breaking Bad, many people are nostalgic for it, and I weren't. I haven't watched Breaking Bad between 2008 and 2013, I watched in 2021, and despite being a TV series that have been released more than a decade ago, it's still good. It's not bad just because it's nostalgic, or old...

If I'm not mistaken. The original plan was ending the series at season 4.

@@sayer4148 It was actually. The last three episodes were titled "The End" pts 1, 2, and 3. It was supposed to end on Raven's arc. Honestly it would have been a better, more satisfied ending but then we wouldn't have got to see all the honorary titans in Season 5. I also read that for a small period of time, season six was being talked about and if it was to happen it would have been based around the lives of the honorary titans. That last bit could have just been a rumor spread around the community at the time though, so take that with a grain of salt.

True. I’m not gonna spend my whole life hate watching a bad show.

Furthermore, you’ll happen upon unhinged loons. In that case, they aren’t worth discussion.

Agreed, that hard part is finding someone who will debate back and forth with you without turning it into something personal. I would say 8/10 times it breaks down into the person attacking me, but when I do get a good debate going its a lot of fun to discover why someone sees it differently then I do.

Same here too. I grew to like this considering that I used to be blind to the other side. It opened my eyes to other's in what they think. Especially with the stuff I do in my spare time on KZfaq and what to do when I eventually get to doing my recreation project of a dark ride; doing it for historical/lost media reasons. Since the small amount of people felt the original version of it was lame. It gave me inspiration to re-approach the ride in a way to make it more interesting, while still maintaining the character of what made it great to a lot of people.

Before I buy a game I think I'm going to like, I only read negative reviews of it, basically to see "Okay do I still disagree with them after this point or do they say something even I would agree with" and usually make a decision after that.

You mean all of nostalgia?

​@@mr.x2567/Hyperbole

​@mr.x2567 Nostalgia isn't entirely a bad thing, everyone has different things they are nostalgic for, and that's not a bad thing in and of itself. The whole point the video was making is about people letting their nostalgia blind themselves into hating things just because they are not into to begin with, and I think that we all make that mistake in our lives at one point or another. But again, there's nothing wrong with nostalgia inherently, at least so long as we don't let it dictate rather or not we are willing to give something new a try

Absolutely - because nostalgia can definitely be a very powerful aspect of anyone's perspective. But it is what also creates amusement and recognition for how entertainment molds us into who we are - whether it would be anything Disney related or even something like going to arcades at malls (which my brother and I used to really enjoy back in the day). I remember when certain restaurants like pizza hut and dairy queen would have classic arcade games too. Fun times :)

It's an "argument" that is not to be taken seriously, especially when the people that claim things like that try their hand at objectivity. Laughable. A lot of people get nostalgic over Disco when they belong to the same generation as the clowns that rioted over Disco. They whine about what's on the airwaves while conveniently ignoring how when a solid genre of music was on the airwaves morons literally rioted over it. There's also weak, passive-aggressive, racist bs in that "argument" about what is and isn't "real" music. This is coming from someone who mostly avoids the latest music (and not for the reasons one might think). You won't catch me whining about it either.

Not the fault of the idea of Mega Man being voiced; Powered Up proved it can work. Mega Man being a robot? Certainly sounds like it could be the case considering how lifeless he looks in Smash while the old sprites had FAR more life to them. And wasn't he supposedly inspired by the Archie comic crossover with Sonic? Mega Man talked as much as anyone else there. And it doesn't matter that he only got a couple of lines in MM6's intro out of all the NES games; MEGA MAN WAS NEVER CANONICALLY MUTE.

Now that is something I can totally agree on.👍

Naw. It just had boring plots i just could not get into. Sorry.

@@ralcolfwolfcoon8207 Let me guess, you watched like 4 episodes from season 1…

Fine, how's this for leverage! The movie was spectacular and I'm glad to see Leo trying to be leader. The series is just not my thing. Sorry. Deal with it. You can't change people's minds to get them to like what you like. That ain't how it works.

Now you're just being an asshole. The fuck outta here.

Nostalgia is like religion

The thing is, I feel at least, most people who have nostalgia fueling their opinion the most, they don't actually realize it's nostalgia fueling it. Like Jay shows in comments here, people saying things like "that old thing was edgier" or "It just looked better and was done better" They are still attributing other factors they feel as to why they think it's better. So if you asked any nostalgic person "Why is it the number one reason" they'd probably say "it's not the reason" and as far as they can tell, they aren't lying.

There are plenty of people who can be mutual and reflective with nostalgia. The comments are a very small portion of all people who watch content and it shows most people watch without needing to chime in on something. So of course those that do seem to be on one of two extremes with few in the center. But over all yes being able to look back at things for what they actually were, and cherish those moments is a healthy form of nostalgia. It allows to look back while still being able to enjoy new things. For me the most irritating is those that have become so stuck and over dosed on nostalgia they become nihilist. To the point anything new by default is bad. Or people convince themselves of false realities.

I agree nostalgia is like religion

I agree just like religion

Nostalgia is like pride as someone else stated It's perfect to be proud of yourself and your legacy, but as soon as pride begins to take control of your life decisions you're heading towards disaster

Agreed.

What do you mean “probably”? It DID confuse most of the fans . It’s the reason why most people are STILL complaining about GO! 10 YEARS later

​@@ToonyTails no... No.. 10 years, they're not done whining?!

@@scottylewis8124 Yeah, not only was it shown in J’s vid. But just check any clip on YT (that has comments on) or on Twitter and you’ll see people STILL demanding that the show end and to give the og series a season 6, or that it “ruined their childhood”. It’s pathetic really.

@@ToonyTails Why'd they end up wasting.. their entire lives... For nothing... This isn't the future I wanted..

@@scottylewis8124 reality is often disappointing

It’s a terrible show for idiots who think “waffles” are funny. It’s only merit is that it’s a Teen Titans show, it has nothing to offer but a few cheesy 4th wall breaking jokes about DC.

@@improbablyyourdad8458 someone’s too cereal

As a fan of the Wolfman/Pérez New Teen Titans run in the early 80s, I find TTG to be refreshing and often hilarious. I didn’t think I’d like it, but I really do.
