Gold Vanguard Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I was looking back on some old cartoons and started to wonder why I ever enjoyed them when I was little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SYFEA82 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Yup. Vice-versa applies to all the following statements: Seeing certain ways people apply themselves in physical training and art performance (or creation) Certain foods I used to enjoy eating and now I don't The purpose of using certain themes in specific video games and movies I enjoyed or disliked The importance of financial savings and future investments be it personal or professional Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaMonkey Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 When I was younger, I thought the Super Mario Bros. movie was pretty good... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mewyeon Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Yup! There were lots of movies and books that I watched/read that I sort of just...watched/read without actually understanding them. When I go back and see them now they make a lot more sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ercdouken Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I also used to like the Super Mario Bros. movie as a kid. There's also food I use to enjoy eating, but don't really enjoy eating anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shin Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Ren and Stimpy. I used to think it was a kids' show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkhead Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Well, obviously. We all do. I actually like most thing I've liked as a children. And like someone else said- vice-versa. I appreciate a few cartoons or movies I used to find boring as a child. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rehab Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 EEnE is a timeless classic you take that insinuation back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarioKirby Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 For me, video games are the biggest case of this. Not necessarily because they were horrible then and are amazing now, or vice-versa; rather, games I thought were incredibly difficult back then but fairly easy now. Of course, that doesn't mean the former doesn't apply. It's only been recently that I've changed my mentality that the only games worth my time are those on Nintendo consoles. I guess cartoons have fallen into this as well. Most, if not all, of the shows I used to watch rather fervently as a kid I probably wouldn't associate with now.

riariadne Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Pretty much everything, now that I think about it. A few constants, but as a kid I definitely wouldn't guess that I'd grow up to be who I am now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dondon151 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 i'm surprised no one has mentioned vaginas, penises, and tits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disinnocence Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Music. I don't know why I didn't like music back when I was a kid.That, video games, and life.I wish I enjoyed things back when I was a kid that I enjoy now... :T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karasz Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 i'm surprised no one has mentioned vaginas, penises, and tits I'd think the notion of understanding just what they are would be inherent by now. =/ As for me, cartoons, definitely. I used to think cartoons were innocent and carefree, and some of them still are. Then after taking a History of Animation class and looking at a lot of different stuff, it made me realize that everything I knew was a lie. The Looney Tunes are brutal as hell, holy shit. o_O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkhead Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 (edited) i'm surprised no one has mentioned vaginas, penises, and tits What. Boys like breasts from a really young age as well, you know. The other? Well, I can't say I still don't find it rather gross. Try this: kissing When I was younger, other children used to find it "gross". I didn't feel anything in particular towards it. Still don't. Edited April 29, 2013 by Walpurgisnacht Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunshineYON Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Haha, you can retroactively ruin something, definitely. I watched the Schwarzenegger film, The 6th Day when I was 10 and thought it was badass, watched again a week ago and it turned out to be a cheesy and terrible film akin to Batman and Robin. Sometimes, revisiting a childhood favorite can yield a large amount of gratification though, it is a risk whenever you try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rehab Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I loved EEnE and always will. Then I stumbled on TV Tropes. If you mean the Ho Yay page for it, my interpretation was just that it was all played for laughs and/or had extenuating/unrelated circumstances in effect, but whatever floats the fandom's boat.

Freohr Datia Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Well... I started rewatching Beyblade recently... x3 I mean I do still slightly enjoy rewatching it, but back when I was a kid I never thought of how cheesy it can beeeeeeeee Also the music doesn't sound as cool to me now as it used to Yup! There were lots of movies and books that I watched/read that I sort of just...watched/read without actually understanding them. When I go back and see them now they make a lot more sense. Yeah, it's been like that with me as well~ There was so much I didn't understand as a kid x3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ein Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Yes. Everything. Because I was a kid. This basically which has led to become very cynical about a lot of things. It's all kinds of great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
