From systems, to people, and cities, to this place. Mainframe. My format: Guardian. To mend and defend.

Reboot is so awesome, it deserves the occasional thread.
Wiki wrote:
CGI-animated action-adventure television series that originally aired from 1994 to 2001. It was produced by Vancouver-based production company, Mainframe Entertainment, and created by Gavin Blair, Ian Pearson, Phil Mitchell and John Grace, with the visuals designed by Brendan McCarthy after an initial attempt by Ian Gibson.

It is the first full-length, completely computer-animated TV series.

Remember that time Bob was lost in the net, and then he came back 10 times more badass? Or how Enzo became a murderous renegade? Or how psycho that bitch Hexadecimal was?

Reboot was so badass. Oh yeah, and they're making a movie.

    I like Reboot. The new movie will likely be terrible. I wish I had the old seasons on dvd. The PS1 game was hilariously bad.

    At Comic Con they said if the movie does okay and they get the rights issues sorted out then they would probably put them on DVD.

    The last two movies they made were all kinds of awesome, but the new one will have nothing to do with the old series.

    according to wiki, yeah.

    But it's ok, because according to wiki they also did the dire straights video, which makes them exempt from any criticism from now until forever. because that video was the fucking shit. the fucking shit.

    Besides having Jack Baur as the voice of Raistlin it was beyond shitty. Even Phil LaMarr as Riverwind didn't save it.

    Also the writing in the series really was ahead of its time

    there are so many subtle pop culture references, both for children and adults. It was just a very very well made program.

    They probably brainstorm and throw around ideas to resolve the horrible cliffhanger at the end of the second movie, resolution that we will never see.

    Their rationalization is that they knew they were going to get shitcanned and just ran out of time. So they had to make a conscious decision to have a full shitty episode or half of a totally awesome episode.

    To be fair, the books were cheesy adolescent paint-by-numbers fantasy wankfests to begin with. I loved it so growing up.

    Was the animation and voicework and all that stuff that bad?

    Yeah, pretty much from the second season onwards (once they started up the continuity with the web vrius), I really enjoyed the show.
