Long Live the Cartoon

Cartoons will live forever. For as long as we humans of all ages require entertainment, cartoons will live on. Why? Because cartoons are unstoppable.

Cartoons are the ultimate heroes; Superman, Wonderwoman, Spiderman.

Cartoons are the best comedians; Homer Simpson, Bugs Bunny, Goofy.

Cartoons can capture your heart for a lifetime; Winnie the Pooh, Tweety, Cinderella.

But most importantly, cartoons can't let you down. Superman won't ever stumble out of a nightclub and throw up into the gutter, Homer Simpson won't have a magical makeover and in an interview Winnie the Pooh won't suddenly have the vocabulary of a prize-winning novelist.

No matter how many movie cinemas, concert tickets or books are sold with their name on the cover, a cartoon won't ever let the fame get to their head and lose their way.

Now of course everyone knows they're not real, but that doesn't stop that fingly (fuzzy/tingly) feeling happen when Mr Fredrickson (from Up!) pinned his badge on Russell's sash. Cartoons, despite being just drawings can still invoke feelings of joy, wanting and grief. Cartoons have no less valuable in entertainment than a live moviestar, they have more. Because cartoons will never die.
