CN Adult Swim

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Aeon Flux : One Thread

Has Peter Chung petitioned Cartoon Network (owned by AOL-Time Warner) to try and get Aeon Flux on it's adult swim programming block? CN has already picked up a number of shows that other networks had dropped, including 'home movies' and 'futurama'. It would seem to me that loyal fans of AF would be petitioning CN/AOLTW as much as possible.

How?

As cool sa that sounds i think its a bit to explicite.

-- Aaron (cure2200@yahoo.com), November 20, 2002.

I think it would fit in perfectly. Adult Swim can be a little explicit. It wasnt too explicit for MTV and thats cable also. Let it be done!

I guess such a flux is more fitting to an ocean than a pool, but beggars cant be choosers :)

Correct me if I am wrong, but I dont think he own the rights to flux anymore: its MTV's.

So no, i dont think adult swim will be showing it anytime soon.

How? It seems to me that Mr Chung has more insider knowledge of cable networks (mtv) than I do. I found no contact information on cartoonnetwork.com, and I don't know what adultswim.com has (I don't run activeX controls). But I think a seach on google might turn something up. In any case the top down approach seems appropriate. Find contact info for AOLTW, contact them, from them work your way into the cartoonnetwork/adultswim subsidiary, make your case, show them what you can do & have done, etc. Start a petition at one of those petition web sites. Get the word out, try and get the idea in places like Slashdot etc.

1. head down to the video store on Animatrix' release

2. buy Animatrix

2. buy lots of Reign while you're there ;)

4. send really nice letters about Peter Chung to Time-Warner and ADV

That's your best bet ;)

That should've been 3: buy lots of Reign. (but, why would you want a lot? Is there a betting pool going? Eh, just buy that shiny disc thing...;-)

It CAN happen:

forums.toonzone.net/showthread.php?s=7d02b7f6100abb4b6d257fd1baf562f5&threadid=58278

Imagine a future press release that instead says: "CN Acquires a New Anime Series: Aeon Flux".

And somebody mentioned 'reign'. Well there you go.

It can happen, if you just want it to, and you make a lot of noise about it, and spread the word, and write petitions, and do everything you can, then It CAN happen.

I think AF would add a little more erotica to Adult Swim. EROTICAS' GOOD :)

-- Robert Delzell (Jjldfrd1998@AOL.COM), February 16, 2004.


OH YEAH BABY

I think it'd be good too, to take time away from that cliched crap they're running now on Action and spend some time watching the cream.

Licking the cream.

I think I should go now.
