The new turtles cartoon is better as an action cartoon, but it doesn't have the cool factor of the old one. It's too modern, and the dialogue is really horrible because the words "kill" and "die" are allways substitued for words that people never say in that context. Like all of cartoon networks shows anymore.

Nobody ever dies, and the bad guys insist on "finishing" or "destroying" the heroes. Makes it loose some of the impact it should have IMHO.

I watched the old cartoon it was good. I saw one episode of the new one and quit. I agree with Darth Chaltab cartoons are loosing the impact that they once had. (sigh)
The decline of cartoons... what was wrong with classical music and plots that made you laugh well teaching a moral/lesion or were just plain neat. I guess that you couldn't say -Looney Toons- was the best shaper of young minds, but I would take it over a modern cartoon/anime any day.
