Why are Gen X cartoons so gruesome? Can you imagine if Superman lost his arm?
Watch TCW and get back to me.
You’re such a pussy OP.
A robot losing its arm is way less frightening than a fleshy humanoid losing its arm for obvious reasons.
>inb4 but Robocop's half man. Half machine.
Yeah but he's also all cop so sit and spin
That's how Samurai Jack got over censorship hurdles: get all the maiming and slaughtering that you want onscreen because it's all metal and oil.
I wonder if in a thousand years robots will get so advanced they'll have free will and rights, and they'll look at these saturday morning cartoons as snuff the depraved savages of old showed to their children.
He's a machine clearly so dismemberment is fine since he can just get those parts replaced. "Safe gore" if you will.
Have you seen the amount of decapitations in Samurai Jack?
It happens to every robot/cyborg in any era. I dare you to how a robot that never loses a limb. Even Small Wonder loses a limb every now and then.
Boomer: Cute and family friendly
Gen X: The anti-thesis of boomers, so edgy, bleak and filled with gore or safe-gore
Millennials: Also the anti-thesis of boomers, but politically correct and with toxic positivism
Gen Z: Just complete death spiral into sex-addled, meta-fueled nothingness of "content" which is at once perfunctory and wholly sincere.
This is bullshit, millennials grew up on Dexter, Batman TAS, South Park, Courage, Spawn, Simpsons, Family Guy. The "politically correct and toxic positivity" started with zoomer shit like Steven Universe
Except that Steven Universe was made by a millennial, so cope + seethe + dilate.
That's not how it works. OP said "Gen X cartoons" which means "cartoons made for Gen X audience", not "cartoons made by Gen X"
Rebecca Sugar is 36, she can't be a millennial. moron.
moron, that's peak millennial
85-95 are the gen Y years
>no Superman TAS
Superman TAS is cute and family friendly.
>DECOMPOSE
Do you not know what the word “gruesome” means?
Causing repulsion or horror; grisly
Decompose scared the shit out of me as a kid.
Maybe if I wasn't such a dumbass I could've recognized Starscream's voice and been less scared but seeing that fricker on the screen fricked my shit up.
pussy homosexual.
look it's another whiny zoomer. blablablablabla
What? This was watched by millennials. Or do you mean created by Gen X?
The oldest millennial would've been 8 when this came out.
What makes you think an 8 year old wouldn't want to watch a cartoon about a crime-fighting cyborg?
int he opening to transformers the movie a planet eats another planet and millions die, and then a b***hing rock song starts playing
in Adventure Time, Finn got his arm ripped off, but then he grew it back because that arm was infected with a grass sword, so it grew back in a viny ejaculation while thinking about Princess Bubblegum after he got raped by LSP.
1) it's a cartoon not a real person
2) it's a fricking robot, not a human
Go watch astro boy, he gets fricking mutilated regularly.
Not a robot, it’s a cyborg. Human brain metal body.
