[QUOTE]Amblin Television and Warner Bros. Animation are kicking around a brand new version of the hit 1990s cartoon, IndieWire has learned. The potential reboot comes as “Animaniacs” has experienced a new surge in popularity since arriving on Netflix last year. Steven Spielberg, who developed the original as a follow-up to the success of his “Tiny Toon Adventures,” is expected to be on board in crafting the updated version.
There’s no home yet for “Animaniacs,” and insiders caution that it’s still in the early stages of development. But 1990s nostalgia is big business these days – witness the success of another Warner Bros. TV title, “Fuller House,” which is one of the most-watched originals on Netflix.[/QUOTE]
Oh dear god yes
I hope its more crude.
[QUOTE=Cmx;52292828]I hope its more crude.[/QUOTE]
No.
One reason: ren and stimpy adult party cartoon
Glad that Spielberg is expected to be back on board for this.

Sometimes a show is better because of it's limitations.
Please be good. Go the route of Samurai Jack and double down on what's good about the old show, not the route of Powerpuff Girls.

I just hope it doesn't end up anything like the looney toons reboot. Just mentioning that atrocity makes my skin crawl.
It's really hard to imagine Animaniacs as anything other than this definitive product of the 90s. I just can't imagine what they could do to modernize it without fundamentally altering what made it good in the first place.

I wouldn't doubt it does go the route of PPG, Teen Titans Go, or the Ben 10 reboot. I can't actually imagine it [I]not[/I] going down that route. Samurai Jacks season 5 was funded by Adult Swim and had a story that let it do what it did. Animaniacs doesn't have either. Cartoon humor these days just leaves me with no real hope, but I guess it's best to just wait and see.
Already not looking good. Rob Paulson (Yakko) has not been informed about it:

Oh please don't tell me they're not bringing the original VAs on board. That is always so annoying. It's always for voices you [I]can't[/I] replace too. Like, remember when IO almost didn't hire david bateson to do 47 in Absolution? Remember how they recasted the Powerpuff Girls for the reboot? Why the fuck would you do that?
Their voice actors are still [I]alive.[/I] They can still do the voice. It's not like hollywood, you can't 'see the voice actor being old'. And unless they're incredibly overused, almost nobody gets tired of a voice actor. Because when have you ever gone "Oh, well, tara strong voices in this, I'm not watching I'm so done with her"?
The thing that pisses me off the most about it is that there's [I]no reason not to just hire the damn original VA.[/I]
animaniacs had an incredible sense of wit to it that only a 90s cartoon could get away with. a modern reboot would be nothing but a shell of what the show once was.
[editline]30th May 2017[/editline]
nevermind that the animation would almost definitely be a boring by the books production done in flash, completely betraying the show's original hand drawn style that just blows me every time i see it.
I imagine that it will be all new stuff aside from a toned down in terms zaniness version of the Warners. What with how:
Buttons and Mindy portrays animal abuse(granted incidental) and bad parenting.
Goodfeathers is about Italian Mafiosa stereotype pigeons.
Rita and Runt "glamorizes" homelessness.
Slappy Squirrel reinforces crotchety old people stereotypes and displays (cartoon) violence as the answer.
Good Idea Bad Idea would influence children to commit dangerous acts.
The seldom used Hip Hippos showcase the rich and wealthy stereotype.
Chickenboo promotes racism and "whitewashing".
They'd find something to pin on Pinky And The Brain.
Mind you I'd love to see it come back, but I'm afraid it will be "new and trash" due to how times have changed.

Honestly I quite liked that reboot, it wasn't great but it wasn't new PPG levels of offensive to the original material.
I've seen they've made another "reboot" (do new Looney tunes shows even count as reboots?) but I haven't seen enough to judge.

In the newest reboot, they took remastered audio of Mel Blanc and made a new cartoon:

I think this is how you remaster a cartoon correctly.
Now that's the wacky Daffy I haven't seen in a long time.
As long as its not a bastardized version of itself, cool.
I mean the Reboot reboot is already a lost cause

Is this really true? Come on
Trump instead of Clinton with his sax.
let's hope they don't reboot DuckTales again. AMC's reboot got pretty dark in a few places.

They could roll with the times and point out that absolutely everyone is batshit insane, but the cartoon animals look sane by comparison. :v:

I still remember how disappointed he was with Crystal Skull.
Like, he literally talked about how much he didn't want to do it [I]on the DVD extras[/I].
[QUOTE=TheTalon;52295682]Is this really true? Come on[/QUOTE]
Yes.
Also Adam Sandler movies are another huge draw.
Pretty sure Fuller House has actually made more profit than Marvel has.
honestly i wouldnt mind a steven speilberg made 3D animation animaniacs with a art style similar to the captain underpants movies.
just keep the original VAs please.
Bring back the original VAs or I am not giving it a chance. If WB wants to be cheap and not hire the orignal VAs that must mean they went cheap on the rest of production.
Does it really need a reboot though? Sure, the pop culture reference of it is a bit dated, yet somehow all the political knocks and jokes are still relevant, probably because most of those people are still in politics.
I don't quite see how well this could go, given the current trend of reboot and remakes in cartoons.
