Who else is still a child at heart like me? Remember seeing these cartons as a kid?

I was just taking a break from Hive, and I went through my Facebook feeds. I stumbled across this group on Facebook called Popcult.
Source
They had these amazing things going on. I saw a lot of cartoons, graphics, animations, photo manipulations, etc.
I could not quite place what they were about. So I wrote my first post, asking for answers. The admin was so dear to have answered all my questions
He said, the group is for everyone who loves popular culture; be it a TV series, a movie, a song, a comic, a fan-art, or a cartoon. And that the goal is to create a collective of enthusiasts who love pop culture.
Really? I am a great fan too. So I stayed put, asked other questions, and he answered them judiciously.
There are great photos there, and I really wish I could share them with you. He said I need to get permission from the owners before I could use them. I contacted one of them, but have not gotten any response yet
But you can go through the link and feed your eyes from your end.
Since I could not get a hold of what I really wanted, I decided to do this post differently. The idea is to see how many of us must have seen these movies and cartoons and loved them. Including those who would still watch them even though they are all grown up by now.
Here we go. The first on the list is
The Lion King
Source
Why is this one the first one for me? This is the carton that introduced my entire family and me into the world of animation. I was in school one day and I saw the disk in a friend's bag, I asked to borrow it. She allowed. I got home, and watch it with my siblings. We all enjoyed it, and I never returned the disk...heheeehehehe
I told that friend of mine, I would not return it and she accepted that I keep it. I was so happy. We have seen this movie a couple of times and never got tired. In fact, my siblings and I have all the theme songs at our fingertips. We learned each song at heart
Next on the list is
Avatar the Last Airbender

This one, my sister literally bought all the collections. We were addicted to it. Each ending made me salivate for more, and we could not stop until the last. We watched this one for so long until we learned the chants by heart...lol
Let's move to the next
Power Rangers
Source
I never really liked this one, but my siblings did. My junior brother is a great fan. He can seat on the TV for hours watching the moves made by the rangers. In fact, mum does not get to see her favorite TV series, because my little brother wants to be in control of the remote, and go to the cartoon channel for Power Rangers....hahhahaha. I think this cartoon has a chant too. I really cannot remember, you can help me if you do...winks
Next one
Ben 10
Source
God knows I have forgotten the storyline for this one. All I can remember is BEN always having to fight off some muddy, slimy monsters. If I can remember correctly, we only use to watch this one when we are bored and out of options.....hhehehehe
The last on the list is our all-time cartoon
Tom and Jerry
I am pretty sure everyone has seen this one. And no child has not. We were always so fascinated by the way Jerry maneuver and outwitted Tom. We watched the series on CD, and as though it was not enough, we stay up every Sunday, by 5 pm and watched on free channels. As I grew up, I came to respect the people who created this particular animation, they did a great job of getting kids all over the world stuck to their TV screens.
Wow. That is all for today. Are you familiar with any of these cartoons? please your experience with us. Thank you very much
I have seen them all and I am a big fan of cartoons and animations.
My best in this list are Avatar, Tom and Jerry and Lion King.
I didn't really enjoy power rangers and ben 10 as much as I did for the other three.
If I wanna tell the tale of all this cartoons, i wouldn't finish today lol.
And yes I like how Jerry always outsmart Tom 😂
Hahahahhahahhaha
She loves the list that I love too.....I am so proud right now knowing that I have a partner....hhehhehe
Yeah, me too dear
Hehehehehe lol. You bet you do
I am glad as well.
Being a child at heart is awesome. We have to let him/her go sometimes. I play with my son sometimes. Even let my child in me apear when I try to help my wife has a better mood. I may be like that even with friends sometimes or even people I don't know. I think we should be really open minded to let the child in us apear sometimes. I did that in my recent post about asking people about how many accounts they upvote. That wasn't only funny, but a bit childish and that what make the post funny. So, it's ok to be like a child sometimes. ☺
My battery is low and so is my voting power, I will surely check that post out by tomorrow, and leave a comment. I have actually found it on the feed and it is on my book mark. Thank you
Avatar and Ben 10 rule! My kids love those shows. You put a smile on my face. I don't like the power rangers. Lol, they want to fight me when they watch it. And then I want to win, lol. My wife just stares at me like an idiot. Well, like I'm an idiot.
Christ. I love the shows you posted.
I don't like the lion king too much. My wife cries during a certain scene and I can only imagine what that will do to 2 & 3 year olds. Maybe...later? Thank you for the memories during a long work day.
hahhahahhaha...glad to hear that. I loved avatar more than Ben 10 though. Maybe now that I have grown up a bit, BEn 10 may become a favorite. I just need to watch it again.
I am grateful that I can do that, sir
Lol. I know children and the way they always want to reproduce the scene of power rangers. My brother and his friends does it all the time. Yes, daddy(you ) always want to win....hhehehhehe
Thank you again, smiles.
Oh that is sad. I recommend it for children who are just starting to understand the world. The morality the movie teaches is what they really need as kids
Uhmm, I know this scene. Even as old as I am, I still cry here. It could be that scene where Simba(the small lion) went to the enemy camp and prided himself on being able to roar. once the hyenas asked him to prove it, he could not get it right, then, his dad appeared.
Now his dad, Mufasa, Simba's dad died as a result of a stampede. And the reason why this scene is often teary is that Simba stood in the quiet and open space and shouted
"Somebody help me! Somebody help me! Anybody! Nobody!"
Thank you so much for coming around, sir, and you are most welcome.
Your comment got me laughing hard @scholaris.pob
Your kids wanting to fight you when they watch power rangers and you wanting to win.
Quite hilarious.
Your wife must be emotional I guess. Perhaps your kids wouldn't even cry, I bet you.
My older son is built like a tank. He's about to be 4. He would cry though especially when mommy does. My younger son is 2.5 years and has the temperament of a clown assassin ninja. You don't know where his emotions will go. I think he would be fine with watching it.
Honestly, I don't know. I'll put it on this weekend and see how it goes.
Yeah, when the power rangers are on and my wife wants to play they're delicate. Like handling a precious flower. Daddy gets the raw deal. It's probably sexism, but more likely because I always tell them to be nice to mommy. Kids gotta learn how to treat people.
hahhahahhaha....that is because daddy is strong and mum needs to be treated with care...smiles
Oh, this is so sweet of you. And you are right, kids need to learn how to treat people. It is awesome that you are teaching them these morals at a tender age
Cheers to you, sir
Memories brings back memories. I was just thinking aloud how we learned the songs in The Lion King and only for me to read down and noticed you wrote that too🙃
I can't forget those memories. Mimicking and trying to use their tones.
I still remember how excited I used to be everytime we wanna start singing all the cartoons songs we know and have watched lol.
Oh Avatar🥺 my love for this cartoon was second to none. I made sure to complete each episode and I really miss it, i guess I should watch it again.
Power Rangers I thought I was the only one that didn't really like this one, I just watched it for watching sake. So that we won't be left out hehehhehe. This one was really for the boys lol.
Ben 10 the alienated boy hehehe. Always changing to different things using his wrist watch.
This one also was not really fun to me, still the dudes kind of cartoon lol.
As for Tom and Jerry I remove cap for the developers. Those guys know how to ignite excitement in young children. Though the cartoon taught children some destructive tricks but my love for it. I don't ever get bored watching those two fight 😂😂
I have watched all o, you do know I have and my best three is Lion King, Avatar and Tom and Jerry followed by Ben 10 and then power rangers last.
hahhahahaa, you know I would not leave that one out, singing the songs together is a memory I cannot forget ever.
hahhahahhahahhahaa.....I swear....we were so childish but I guess it brought us together.
Ha.....you don't even need to tell us. We know you na, you spend money and time on stuff that you love dearly.....hhehehhee
Yeah, me too. It really was for the boys, as I am typing, I can still hear the echo of the chant at the beginning of that movies...lol
Oh you still remember what his wristwatch helped him do. I did not even remember it. I felt really bored with this cartoon, and I don't why. Maybe, it was for the dudes as you said.
I am telling you, sweetie, the developers were genius. They have our respect for the rest of our lives, unless, someone else beats them with something better in the future. For now, they are still number 1
I love these cartoons in the order that you just mentioned.
Hey, thanks for responding and for coming around, I appreciate
You deserve one lollipop for all these memories hehehhehehe.
But too bad, you have outgrown sweet things lol.
See you around dear!
hahahhahhahaha
Mad person.....lol
Oya send me my lollipop oooo, who outgrew what?
hehhehhe...see you around too dear
Cartoons are one of the best animated movies that still gets me stuck to my screen whenever I'm watching it.
This is my favorite I can't get enough of it .
Jerry is my favorite character too. He deals with Tom even as little as he is. He gives Tom the best treatment a cat should get from a mouse.
He makes plans without making too much noise but don't be surprised when he implements that plan with so much style and accuracy lol.
If you check my phone's library I got cartoons more.
Cartoons help in getting rid of boredom. I still love it no matter what. At times most of my friends laugh and say I'm acting like a kid all Because I watch cartoons but trust me!! I really don't care I keep watching what makes me happy.
hehhehhehehhehehhe
Why won't you love Tom and Jerry the most?? You eeehhhh...so that you can learn one or two tricks and use on me......hehhehhehehheheh
hhhahahhahaa, yeah, I love watching cartoons too. Don't mind your friends, they don't know what they are missing.

Thank you hivebuzz
I appreciate
Oh Christ, you that power rangers, I was once addicted to it but not anymore. I can now see how not so interesting it is, but as for Tom and Jerry, Avatar and Lion King, those are the legends
hahhahhahahhahaha, I understand oooo. Initially, it was interesting but as the episode proceeded, it started getting boring. But my junior still loves them like no man's business. For now, I think it's addiction.
Or maybe, he will be doing animations when he grows up because, at a point, he started asking me questions about how the toys are made, and I tried explaining to him, that every movement made by the figure is programmed with a particular software but that the images are first drawn on paper before the rest followed
This reminds me of the good old days. Back then was fun waking up to see this cartoons.
My favorite among this list happened to be avatar. Saw the whole season and watched all over again.
Tom and Jerry was also, waking up with siblings, eating cereals while watching this was great.
Lion king had a great place in my heart as it was very emotional for me. Didn't see Ben 10 that much. As my interest in cartoons was fading at the time.
Power rangers got my ass whooped several times as I had to see in my neighbors home. Spend hours watching the various series and versions that I lost count of time
hahhahahhahhahahhaha
I am impressed
You have lots of memories of all the cartoons listed and I am happy you shared your experience with us
Lion King seems to have a special place in all our hearts, maybe that what the developers wanted to achieve, who knows? hhahahahhaha
Now, Avatar was interesting, educating, and inspiring at the same time. We just wanted to see the end of the war, and see if Avatar will be able to master all the four elements and use them well.....what a cartoon...
I bet every child has seen Tom and Jerry and gotten clued to the screen....lol
hhahahhaha...I hope mum did not always beat you when you return home afterward?.....hehhehheheh
This one almost made me stop watching cartoons. Thank God, my interest in cartoons did not fade.
Thank you so much for being here, sweetie, I enjoyed reading all of your experiences. Thanks again
Yeah a lot of. Watching cartoons was like a job then :-) spend most of my time on it.
And they certainly did that if it was their plan. They got me real good
Glad he eventually did. The season finale gave me lot of goosebumps with avatar in his Avatar state. It was a great ending. However wished it would have continued :-)
Yeah. It was probably every child first and favorite cartoon before others followed.
Mum was merciful. Dad wasn't :). He straightened me up real good with them belts
Good for you. Naruto was another that I found interesting to watch. I still have a little interest but it's very selective
My pleasure. Thanks to you for bringing back all this memories
Lol. I can relate. As child children we were free and had no worries at all
Yeah, me too, sweetie
hahhahhahaha....it gave me goosebumps too. You are lucky you saw everything. I did not. There was no movie vendor who had the complete series in my state. Then we did not know, there was such a thing as Youtube, or jumia to either watch all series, or have the CD's waybill to us.
Probably.
hahahhahaa...sorry about that dear
No worries. I will have to check out Naruto, never heard of it or seen it.
You are welcome, sir
Yeah. Childhood was great. Many sweet memories. Wish I could re live it.
Happened to see it all back then because we were opportuned to have a cable network. Having access to the internet was not as easy as it is now.
:-). It quite funny when I remember that. But it wasn't funny back then
It's a Korean anime. It's quite interesting. Had to watch because of the hype around back then
