Remakes and reboots are a cinema staple now, and hey, why not? Everythings just a derivative of a Shakespeare play anyway. The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are the latest franchise to receive a cinematic reboot (yes, it was a comic before all else, and okay, we've struggled to find the exact Shakespeare play where four mutated turtles learn martial arts from a rat, then go on to don masks and fight crime). The new TMNT film makes the most of all the advancements in movie making since the 1987 cartoon series and the 1990 film (we now have CGI, Michael Bay making things go BOOM, CRASH, EXPLOSION, oooh look, Megan Fox, tenuous exposition, HUGE BOOM, End Credits, possible sequel?) and its already proving to be a rip roaring success at this summers box office. We all like to reminisce, we all grew up watching cartoons (except that one weird kid, remember them, their parents wouldnt let them, poor thing), so the chance to see those cartoons come to life on the big screen is one wed all adore, as its a chance to go to the toy store as adults, buy some movie merchandise and this time keep it in the original packaging, unopened. At the very least, its a chance to whine and moan about how theyve got it all wrong and remember how great the original cartoons actually were. How everything was better in the old days, how Hollywood just ruins everything we once loved, besides, the internet is the only good modern advancement and thats just full of pointless trivia and endless lists anyway. Which brings us to this collection of cartoons, as one remake success invariably leads to another. Comic book films did well, so a slew of comic book adaptations followed, then more followed. The 1980s and 1990s gave us some wonderful cartoons, some delightfully odd ones and lots of opportunities for modern screenwriters to avoid having to come up with a truly original idea. Here are ten such cartoons that modern cinema could apply its technological wizardry to. Providing new films that could trample all over our happy memories of childhood.
