    The 1986 animated movie still holds up well, right? It’s been awhile since I’ve seen it, but I remember it being decent. I don’t remember the old cartoons so much, so not sure about those.

      It's decent for the nostalgia factor and has some bops but it's essentially a children's movie so things like dialogue and plot suffer from that. I feel like the main purpose of that movie was to market toys to children.

      I love it and I've seen it a thousand times, but a lot of that is the nostalgia factor. However, it was refreshingly edgy for a film marketed to children and it didn't hold back on the violence.

      HBomberGuy did a great review of it, explaining why it appealed to a generation despite it not being a particularly good film.
