Shaman Thoughts: Reviving/Rebooting old cartoons


Greetings Ladies and Gents! It is I, The Shaman of Animation back once again with another installment of Shaman's Thoughts: where I pretend to be a know-it-all for one post. We're over a week removed from San Diego Comic-Con, the nerd equivalent of the Superbowl, and the smorgasbord of concept art, comic announcements, and most of: trailers; and aside from Justice League and Thor, the two trailers throughout that weekend that stood out for me are Rocko's Modern Life and Hey Arnold: The Jungle Movie. Between Rocko's updating to current times and the jokes surrounding it and The Jungle Movie's nods to past Hey Arnold episodes, what was shown during SDCC weekend made fans aplenty happy, but it also brought something up that's been on my mind for well over a year now.
