Three of the top 12 were worked on by Brad Bird.

This list has no pedigree, it's just some guy's list of favorites.

And Bugs Bunny at number 10? This list is bogus.

OMFG what a bullshit list. Yeah I realize it is personal opinion only, but why the obvious lack of Anime. Yeah there were a few, but why not Deathnote???? Or Fullmetal Alchemist?? Obviously whoever wrote that list knows nothing about animation. At least he got The Simpsons on the list.

Because he, like 99% of America, never heard of them?

Obviously whoever

Obviously! Someone who can name 100 cartoons certainly can't know anything about animation!

Bullshit stat. I believe I'd like to see a cite for that, Mister. Besides, as I have already pointed out, he included a handful of other anime works in the list so obviously he's aware of them.

Dear Mr. Dumbass, er, Wiseguy,

One hundred cartoon titles total less then 0.1 percent of the total of animated works.

BTW if you've never heard of Death Note then you have some serious cartoon watching to do.

You need to visit http://deathnote.viz.com/ immediately.

If at all possible, learn Japanese before you watch the series because the English translation is absolutely horrible... but I suppose it at least gets the job done.

Ask 100 random people and see what answers you get. Maybe the guy who wrote the list doesn't like those cartoons. Does he have to agree with you? What are you, 12?

I suppose anyone who disagrees with you is automatically a dumbass.

If he's aware of them, he likes them. If he's not aware of them, then he's not qualified to make that list.

I've found that pretty much usually to be the case, yes. At least it's been true on Usenet.

And there is nothing more productive anyone can do with their days than to watch cartoon after cartoon after cartoon.

Although I heartily endorse multitasking, driving and yakking is just idiocy since it involves human life. I'll never do it.

It seems that Lenny and Karl agree with me. Sorta.

No, I mean doing it the way *I* do.. that is, four things at once as efficiently as if I were doing them individually. Not everyone is as capable of this as I.

Example: listening to music, watching The Simpsons, playing a computer game, and doing homework... getting an A the next morning of course.
