Best Cartoon Intros

Postby Cognitive Gear » Sun Apr 13, 2008 9:27 pm

What are you favorite (non anime, since we've had threads for that in the past) animated show intros?

Here's a few of mine:

Batman: The Animated Series

[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cUW0lj5CfuQ[/url]The Tick[/url]

Duck Tales (Awoohoo!)

Darkwing Duck

Gargoyles

My Personal Favorite: Batman Beyond

Watching these always brings back fond memories.

I vote for Batman: TAS, Freakazoid and Samurai Jack, although I could have done without the backstory rehash every time Samurai Jack came on. Aku, I've been watching the series for months; I know you threw Jack into the future.

As much as I like the Batman: The Animated Series into, I still like the The New Batman/Superman Adventures opening better for some reason.


The New Batman/Superman Adventures

Justice League opening

Justice League Unlimited opening

Justice League Unlimited 2rd opening

Superman TAS Opening

The Real Adventures Of Jonny Quest

The answer to that question is yes. But finale wasn't in the Batman Beyond series, but the Justice League Unlimited series. They had two eps in Justice League Unlimited that Batman Beyond showed up and when creative team thought it the JLU was going end for good at that time, they made one more ep that dealt with Batman Beyond. The ep is called Epilogue and its the so called finale for Batman Beyond and it was a shocker of an ep. The ep give the true history of Terry McGinnis.

"God the great Creator of all things doth uphold, direct, dispose, and govern all creatures, actions, and things, from the greatest even to the least, by His most wise and holy providence, according to His infallible foreknowledge and the free and immutable counsel of His own will, to the praise of the glory of His wisdom, power, justice, goodness, and mercy."

"The very One from Whom we need to be saved, is the One Who has saved us."

"All of Christian life is ceaseless worship of God the Father, through the mediatorship of God the Son, by the indwelling power of God the Spirit, doing what God commands in Scripture, not doing what God forbids in Scripture, in culturally contextualized ways, for the furtherance of the Gospel, when both gathered for adoration, and scattered for action, in joyous response to God's glorious grace."
- Mark Driscoll

"Believers do not pray with the view of informing God about things unknown to Him, or of exciting Him to do His duty, or of urging Him as though He were reluctant. On the contrary, they pray in order that they may arouse themselves to seek Him, that they may exercise their faith in meditating on His promises, that they may relieve themselves from their anxieties by pouring them into His bosom; in a word, that they may declare that from Him alone they hope and expect, both for themselves and for others, all good things."
- Martin Luther

"I have to tell you first that I am ready to die. I have put my affairs in order. Your supreme weapon is killing. My supreme weapon is dying, because when you kill me, people all over Romania will read my books and believe on the God that I preach - even more than they do now."

I can't remember the Batman Beyond intro very well, but since everyone is mentioning it, it was probably really good :sweat:

I like the Magic School Bus intro, but that's mostly for nostalgic reasons, I guess. "Please let this be a normal field trip!" "With the Friz? NO WAY!!"

I also rather like the intro for Arthur.

Makes me want to watch Darkwing Duck now. I definitely like the original Batman one, too.

I liked this intro: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JQ_spwuH_o
"You've gotta speak about those things you don't currently see as though they already exist. Back in the beginning, God didn't look into space and say, 'Gee, it's dark.' He called light into existence."

I remember Cowboys of Moo Mesa...it was on Toon Disney early in the morning (and there was also an arcade game at Cici's Pizza).

Mighty Max intro
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NR2OIltppY
"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18
