Samurai Jack

[Trag]

For those who don't know, Samurai Jack was a cartoon that Cartoon Network used to run before it started sucking. I've just finished rewatching the series, and I highly recommend downloading it. The way that robots are killed mirror the way a human would be disembodied, it's grotesque and amazing how they mask it. Anyways, get this by any means possible. It's an epic tale. It alludes from so many different mythologies. Watch it not just for nostalgic value, I mean this shit is really sick.

Here's the wiki link if you've been living under a rock: Samurai Jack - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Samurai Jack is and will always be awesome. I could watch it all day.

This was the shit back when it first aired.

I still watch the reruns whenever they are man enough to show em.

This and Megas XLR were pretty much the only things on Carton Network of unquestionable quality.

I wish they got to properly finish it.

I am mad because samurai jack never actually ended...that and courage were the best

 

[For The King]

Next to Avatar this is my favorite animated show, back when it first aired it was my favorite show. I really hope the film is good, heads will roll if it isn't.

Agree so very much. They've been messing around with a movie to finish the storyline, but it's taking ages.
And Megas, that just needs to come back. I really miss it. 2 seasons is a fucking joke.

I'm so excited for the movie. It's being directed by Genndy Tartakovsky himself, and co-produced by J. J. Abrams. And they are making it a mix between 2D and "3D stereophonics".
Hopefully Phil Lamar will reprise his role as Jack, but sadly we won't have Mako's awesome voice for Aku.

Love how every time Jack was close to defeating Aku, he'd just be jinxed or plays hero. Aku is my favorite character. :]

 

[Annoyance]

I really wish I was able to watch all of this series as a kid. I missed a lot of episodes for whatever reason and I hate myself for it. I loved this show and I still do.

 

[Esso]

This show was the my favorite when I was kid. It still looks cool. I should rewatch it when I get the chance =D

The movie is going be crazy, especially since it's being made with Bad Robot Productions.

JJ ABRAMS!!!!!!...well at least i know to expect some sci-fi twist....Well Samurai jack was already kind of Sci-fi so i guess i wont be too mad

I loved this back then and I still do. I'm upset that they never finished it. I actually thought that it ended and I missed it. Well anyways, time to look at the wiki!

Don't worry it won't have too much science ffiction in it. Don't forget that J.J. Abrams created Alias and has another spy show coming on too. Plus Jack was sent to a future filled with aliens and robots in the first episode any way, so it wouldn't be that much of a twist.

I think they're ending it with the movie, or so I've heard.

 

[Nyangoro]

I wish I could have seen more of this series, but the time slot tended to conflict with other responsibilities

Oh well, at least I watched all of Megas

 

[Bebop Blues]

Well if you have Boomerang they show it on there. I think it comes on at 11(est)??

 

[Oracle Spockanort]

Gosh i miss this show. Should start playing on CN again. All of the good shows should play on CN again, actually.

 

[chasespicer056]

This show was great. I just wished they made a movie where Jack finished off Aku for good. Every time he beats him in the show, he comes back in another episode!

Gennedy Tartakovsky was one of the best people working for Cartoon Network back in the day. Samurai Jack is some of his best work, and undoubtedly one of the best things to come from Cartoon Network itself. I can't really think of any show that impacted me in the same way that Samurai Jack did. There was no other show that I kept track of so fervently, that I knew every episode by the number alone. I love that show and always will.

But it never received a real conclusion, and I will never forgive that. Hopefully the (rumored) movie that it being produced by J.J. Abrams Bad Robot Productions will be able to give me the amazing finale I've always wanted.
