The great thing about this cartoon was that it was creepy not just for kids but also for adults. It was grotesque, darkly comic, and haunting. My 6-11 year old cousins love watching it whenever it comes on TV now.

This Fog episode wasn't particularly up there, but it's a great proof of concept on the art direction being faithful.

 

[squarerootofpie]

Christ, no, please. That show was terrifying without needing CGI.

 

[Platy]

The scary Courage emotions were hilarious and the fog was creepy.

Yeah, it is Courage cartoon

Oh god, Courage was such a huge part of my childhood, specially the Cartoon Cartoon pilot about the alien hen. I would love to see it back in CG form for kids nowadays. So I've sent that feedback message to Cartoon network.

Also, I hope they bring back Johnny Bravo. That was my fave

Could Johnny come back? He was.... Quite misogynistic.

Half the charm of the show was seeing women kick his ass after he went to that extreme.

Yeah but he was an asshole and always got his comeuppance. It's kind of weird how that show got through but it'd now just be feel like a PUA advert

 

[zeemumu]

That was pretty good. The show transitions into CGI really well. Eustace's voice will take some getting used to but it's not bad.

 

[Chaotic-Strike]

I liked it

Eustace new voice is different but it's a lot better than the original voice replacement they had in the original series.

Wish it would get a new series instead of two movies but CN only seems interested in comedy shows these days.

 

[Sponge]

The CG doesn't even look bad. Lots of overreactions in this thread.

I like the CGI, if I get more courage with this then I can´t complain.

Also the people who say that the series is been raped and/or ruined can go suck a saxophone, take chances with life. If the CGI reboot sucks that won´t ruin the original show, just ignore it and move on.

I think what made Johnny work was the show knew he was in the wrong. There was even that ep where he becomes a woman through a curse or something and cant stand having to deal with men who act like he does

EDIT- Halfway through the short. I like the animation a lot. They nail Courage's extreme takes and that strikes me as the biggest hurdle the show would have had to overcome in cg

Comeuppance? Some episodes the most he did was flirt with women and was immediately tazed for it. If anything, a lot of the throwaway female characters in that show needed to be put in jail.

 

[ito007]

Ramses was one if the scariest characters I've ever come across as a kid

He deserved it, also it was a cartoon so exaggerated responses are cool

 

[El Odio]

Wow, that was pretty good. Was that Wallace Shawn as Eustace? I couldn't unhear him as Rex from Toy Story but that was my only issue with it.

 

[IronRinn]

Well, it was definitely a Courage cartoon, which is great. Still wish it wasn't CG, but I can probably get used to it. Gonna take longer to acclimate to Eustace's new voice.

Edit: Huh, Wallace Shawn credited as "The Farmer."

 

[InfiniteBento]

I'd be down for them to bring back Courage but I don't know if Johnny Bravo would be able to fly nowadays with certain audiences. The women reacting negatively towards his flirtations was humorous but that would only be able to go so far. After a while, it'd be incredibly stale imo.

What if they gave it a sitcom soin like The looney toons show?

 

[neogaffer1]

Bumping because the short finally came out and it's wonderful, classic Courage antics, feels just like the original series, just in CGI, Wallace Shawn as Eustance is quite different but still alright. Can't wait for the new specials Dilworth is making, and hope they lead to a full on new Courage season!

I hate this trend of rebooting classics using CGI.
