Featured review
Made by smarter people who ever, ever lived
"The Adventures of Bullwinkle and Rocky" follows the typical trend. Why show respect for the original when we all know everyone who ever lived before this new generation dragged their knuckles in the dust?
I hate the animation (why does modern animation try to be ugly?) But, to be fair, the original Bullwinkle was pretty crude, inconsistent, and looked like what it was: farmed out to a cheapjack Mexican studio to keep costs low. Bullwinkle fans like to pretend the almost barbaric animation of the original is part of its charm, but it was cost-cutting and nothing else and is the weakest part of the old series, too.
What really made the old Bullwinkle come alive in the 1960s was the same thing that set Bugs Bunny and Co. Apart 20 years earlier: sharp, witty writing and the best voice work in the business. For Bullwinkle that included June Foray, Daws Butler, Walter Tetley, Paul Frees and notable legitimate actors Hans Conreid, Edward Everett Horton and Charlie Ruggles.
Also typical of moderns is, rather than coming up with something new they scavenge what's old like jackals, with the attitude that the old shows would have been like this had they been smart as we are. Rather than being witty they savage, and include unnecessary gross-out jokes.
Rocky and Bullwinkle may be dead but if they are R. I. P. Let them lie. Don't remake them in a modern image and kowtow to PC censors and the sort of claptrap that ruined the Muppets. Rather than marring the memory of the old why don't they come up with something brilliant on their own?
Because they can't.
