Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece
SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
Cleveronix A different way of telling a story
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
nobletraveler If you look at this as some other adventure cartoon, OK. Try to visualize it as part of the Johnny Quest world? Nah. First, the fake Race Bannon accent. They made him sound like he's from some backwoods hills and he seems amateurish at best. The original Race Bannon could think on his feet and wasn't a smart ass all the time. This one goes to the police first, then doesn't know what to do or acts like an over testosterone G.I. Johnny acts immature not responsible like the original. The animation comes off as cheap. Hadji seems to be the only one who is still wise from the original. Episodes poorly written. A cartoon like Johnny Quest deserves better and more professional treatment. The 80's episodes reboot succeeded where this set should have never been approved. I do like the idea of Race Bannon's daughter joining the team, but it's a shame that this set of cartoons was used to expand her character. Boo to the producer John Eng and the others for not staying true to the original concept that made Johnny Quest a favorite among the fans. I can only hope the movie planned stays true and not try to make Johnny Quest something it's not like this garbage did. With all the "professionals" involved with this, I'm very surprised it isn't of caliber quality and writing.
boy07002 I was so disappointed when that show got canceled. I was a faithful watcher everyday. I just hope they re-put it on the TV someday. My favorite episode was where Johnny and Jessie got possessed by ghost lovers and kissed. I loved every episode though. I have no idea why people woudn't like it, it was awesome. I like the fact that it had a girl in it unlike the original series and the romantic moments between Johnny and Jessie. I wanted to see what was going to happen to them. I thought the opening theme was too cool. I also liked the one that had the haunted stage coach and the western lady; where the stage coach crashes over the side of a cliff in a cave.
ProcurerFaith I think this show was killed by hype before it got a chance to shine. Multitudes of licensed product hit the market weeks in advance of it's release in 1996 and an entire first season was broadcast over a month- killing the chance to get up any kind of audience level. It's a real shame, because this show is DIFFERENT. It took a walk on the wild side from your average cartoon show, with characters you can believe in in situations of real danger. I'd also like to add that the original JQ was the first of it's kind, but was also one of the first cartoons to involve a front-line 'minority race' character- Hadji.Somebody needs to tell CN and WB that it's not all about making money. Sometimes, just sometimes, it's about entertaining the masses.
eko123 As I had watched a few episodes of the original Jonny Quest cartoon and had liked them, I decided to give this new series a try. I was completely blown away by the quality of "The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest". The stories were intelligent and interesting, while the characters were totally believable and likeable. This is one of the few shows that does not adhere to any tired cliches commonly found in other children's toons and does not "dumb down" to viewers. I disagree with some fans of the original series who dislike newer characters like Jessie Bannon. Jessie is an excellent role model for young girls because she is strong, assertive, intelligent, and Jonny and Hadji's equal instead of the stereotypical female "airhead" sidekick or "damsel in distress".This cartoon ranks up there with other smartly-written children's cartoons like WB's Batman, Batman Beyond, and Superman animated series, The Tick, Power Puff Girls, and Transformers: Beast Machines. It's too bad that something like "Real Adventures of Jonny Quest" would not survive in today's TV market.
