Was Adventure Time that big back then?
>>154254625Yeah, it was huge until season 6.
>>154254625Goddamn, I miss the early to mid 2010sSeeing Deadpool in theaters was a fun timeI wasn't even a kid then, I was well into my mid 20s but I miss these years
>>154254625It was one of the defining cartoons of the 2010s.It unironically changed society and pop culture.
>>154254625Im more of a regular show guy but yeah it was the biggest cartoon not named spongebob.
>>154254625It was literally a cultural phenomenon in the early 2010s.
>>154254625I feel like 2016 was when its popularity was winding down.
>>1542546515, really.but it picked up again at 7>>154254675>>154254710>>154254841amazing time. I miss it so much. I should never have let myself get so excited, though. So DEPENDENT on it continuing to be good. I climbed the mountain without a safety harness. Still, I will always have the original showand three of the specials.
>>154254927The real 'wall' most people hit was season 5, which was .. 2013ish? Because they had been CRANKING seasons out, back to back, no break. then suddenly they ran out, we had a break for the first time, AND it stretched out the poorly-written and misleading shit with flame princess, so... there was souring. Plus internet culture was rapidly turning against everything had formerly been about. Now suddenly people are calling some relationships 'problematic' or insuinating gay everywhere they look.
>>154254930>it picked up again at 7 Its popularity didn't, though. Not until the original finale and following sequel spin-offs. Adventure Time hasn't felt this relevant in YEARS. It's crazy that Warner has any hesitation on moving forward with another F&C season or that movie that may or may not still be happening
SHMOWZOW!
yeah, the 2010s happened
>>154254625It was big enough here to have it's own draw threads
>>154254625The merch was ubiquitous
>>154254675This is proof that nostalgia is not a factor in why the past was better.
>>154254625wow cool watch
Take me back
>>154254625As other people said, it absolutely was that big. It may not seem that way now, but abck then the style and writing felt very fresh and unique. There was also all the Mushroom War stuff - the idea that the entire story took place after the nuclear war felt very much in line with edgy fan theories ("everyone is actually dead and in hell", "the whole story is someone's coma dream") and creepypasta that were popular at the time, which made it all the more exciting to speculate about, and surprising when the show leaned into that.
>>154254625It was fucking huge back then, depressing/pretentious lore slop and finn abuse literally killed the hype from being the next huge cartoon to being regulated to niche audience of die hard hipsters only>>154254675Ironically i hated much about the early 2010s at the time but id kill to go back. Their was at least some good things happening back then like the increase in good cartoons and their was still some hope for the future left>>154254841I wish i could fuck a marceline cosplayer>>154255415I dont blame WB, fionna and cake season 2 fell into the same pitfalls that ruined OG adventure time. Until they sack most of the writers that killed the shows appeal in the first place AT will never be good again.
>>154254625How is this a question?
>>154258617I hate to say it but while ATs popularity in the early 2010s seems obvious to you and me we have unironic zoomers on here now that were 4 when adventure time first came out, maybe even some posters that were not even born when adventure time first premiered if they are underageIts summer time here in amerishart land so theres defs more younger posters online at the moment. Young enough to still have been in diapers during when adventure time was in its prime and still watchable.
>>154256400>This is proof that nostalgia is not a factor in why the past was better.
>>154256400Meant to add to my post here >>154258700 that youre absolutely right but fucked up. Heres another pic anyways
Yuge. Which is what made it so damaging to the youth when Rebecca Sugar was allowed to inject her homosexual fetish into it. Not to mention that the princesses prototyped female awfulness for the eager little viewers. Its a shame, because it started out as a fine boys' adventure.
>>154259033Can you retards not shit up a single thread for a change?
>>154259050Ask Becky
i remember some band had a song called 'Scott Pilgrim'. also, an early 2000s (?) teen comedy (Judd Apatow or someone) had a character talk about EverQuest sometimes.by the time of Adventure Time, the trend was basically reversed. a rock band or a Hollywood film would say memes. 'I'M THE JUGGERNAUT BITCH!' in X-Men 3 is now 20 years old, for example.so i dunno, this is just like turning on the TV right now and some character has a Deadpool T-shirt. you wouldn't even clock it as 'a reference' or 'easter egg'.
>>154259116>one hour photoI hate how relatable that movie is
>>154259116The song "Scott Pilgrim" by "Plumtree" is actually the origin of that name. Bryan Lee O'Malley explicitly used that name as a reference to that song and band.
>>154258700This only happened because retards thought that kids were getting fat because of how colorful and fun McDonald's presented itself and not because of retard parents buying fast food for dinner every other night.
>>154260389If i could kill every health nazi i would. Super size me was a cultural tumor and it fills me with great pride to see the director of that shit film die in shame and obscurity
>>154254625Anon, how old are you?
>>154260453based
>>154254625Seeing actual appearances like this from properties the studio doesn't own unironically makes me soiface. Like in Ted where Jon was watching Spongebob
>>154254625To be fair, it's a big fish in a small pond.Keep in mind, that the early 2010's is when CN also picked up The Annoying Orange. Tangently, Disney picked up Grumpy Cat and that 'Apparently' kid while Nick ended up with Fred.The 2010's serves as an onset to animation studios' decline.
>>154260453>Dies from alcoholism
>>154254625No. It was bigger
>>154254625In neilsen terms it was only outdone by dragon ball z, the finale of total drama island, and the original CN movies
I want Deadpool with his undeath ability to annoy The Lich so much that he loses his cool for good.
>>154258663You mean Gen Alpha. Adventure Time's audience was definitely intended to be zoomers.
no
>>154266257Yes
>>154266261Nope
>>154266793eeeyvp..
Where's Finn?
>>154262097I hate to admit it but i soifaced in the theater too when deadpool pulled out the adventure time watch. I dropped adventure time by the time deadpool came out but i didnt completely hate it because i intended to pick the show up again when it became good once more (it never did)
>>154256400AbsolutelyI've been on here too long to not forget people will always fucking bitch about everything and anything at any time
Rewatching it because it makes me happy with being nice and wonderful in general. You too should rewatch it and have a good day anon.
>>154254930>and three of the specials.See I didn't fancy the specials apart from together again.Other than that season 6 really focused too much on everyone else.>It's a BMO episodeI like BMO, I just don't like just BMO episodes.
>>154270596The show isn’t that
>>154270627I disagree, it has a sense of wonder and goodness to it.
>>154270700Lol, not even
>>154254625You have to be 18 to post here.
>>154258067Wish granted. Tomorrow you will wake up in 2010.
>>154258614>hipsters onlyDo hipsters even still exist in 2025?
>>154270727People born in 2008 can post here now. And no one fucking listened to that rule ever.
>>154270747Thanks, will I keep knowledge of the stuff of the time?
>>154254675Really? Sometimes I get nostalgic but I always think it’s just because I’m a zoomer, nice to know others were having fun
>>154254625A big tranny cultural cancer, that's it
>>154270846Stop projecting
>>154254625Adventure Time is highly satanic because it promotes the false religion of Buddhism. Thank the Lord it is now obscure and people hate it
>>154270870Kys, subhuman
>>154270794I fucking...tried a joke but I havent slept in a month... i failed so hard Im dying of embarrassment even though this is just a 4chan post...
