The recent images seem to have a much hard, harsher edge to them. Perhaps more the contemporary style.

The Extreme Ghostbusters aren't really that new, in fact they're quite old, so I don't know if you could consider it the "now". And on that note, the Extreme Ghostbusters were pretty cool, so it's all good.

It really isn't 'now' persay (started in 1997) but there's an eleven year difference between the time both shows started. And for everyone who was old enough to watch the original Ghostbuster cartoon series, the Extreme version comes across the same way as all the other new iterations of old shows.

Great excerpt from Maddox article:

Quote:
What ever happened to cartoons and characters who didn't have AIDS or some crippling disease? That's exactly what ruined the new Ghostbusters cartoon, "Extreme Ghostbusters." Instead of keeping true to the original series, they went off and changed all the characters and made them EXTREME. You have a black guy, a hispanic guy, a woman and a cripple. Please. You could sleep with a Thai hooker and experience less diversity than a 20 minute episode of Ghostbusters EXTREME. What the hell makes it so "extreme" anyway? Why can't they just make characters in cartoons like they used to: without "extreme" attitude? I can just picture the creative force behind the series brain storming: "Hmm.. what can we do to make this more extreme? How about we add a woman to the cast! Wait wait... not extreme enough, let's make her hair blue! And let's make one of the characters a cripple.. no wait, make that an EXTREME cripple." If they want to pull this ****, why don't they do it with something other than Ghostbusters? They could make an entirely new show devoted to it and they could make every character have AIDS or herpes or some debilitating disease. Nevermind the concept of super heroes, we have to focus on appeasing the quota of diversity (super heroes aren't diverse enough).
