The New Adventures of Jonny Quest (1980's reboot) Is this worth watching?

[GlobalObserver]

Like a lot of you, I love the original series.

Just wondering what's your opinion of the 80's reboot series?

I'm sure it's not nearly as good as the original series, but is it worth watching?

It's in the same continuity as the 60s series. It's pretty much the second season. It's perfectly fine.

I like it and the addition of Hardrock, I have it on dvd. It's a little less edgy than the original but better than later installments.

[ODBJBG]

It's quite good.

The 90s series is good too actually, but it's a hard reboot. The 80s show is just a continuation of the 60s show, with some top quality voice talent.

[GlobalObserver]

Thanks for the feedback. I'll check it out.

Related to this I was wishing again a JQ movie series would happen. Indiana Jones has been on all day today and I starting about it. I'm thinking it probably would be better as a television/streaming series than a movie.

I'd be open to animated, but live action would be good too.

that rumor mill has been going on forever. For a while it was Frankie Muniz for Jonny and I think Bruce Willis? for Race? more lately it was another Dwayne Johnson rumor gig for Race.

Is it actually in development (or stuck in development hell) somewhere prompting these casting rumors, or is it all wishful thinking on fans' part? I've not heard about JQ being optioned by any studio form WB or WB developing anything with the property except the bluray release of the first animated series in forever.

Muniz would have been perfect in his Malcolm in the Middle days

It's been 14 years since that show went off the air. Has there been any more recent development of a JQ movie? Or is it all just wishful thinking by a small but vocal fan group?

I dunno, that one was floating around while the show was still on.

Considering Munoz was over 40 when he was on Dancing with the Stars a couple seasons ago, if his casting was the most recent rumor of a JQ live action project, I would surmise such a project is dead as a door nail.

According to the Hollywood Reporter in November 2018, Lego movies director Chris McKay was tapped to helm a Jonny Quest film.

Cool. Still two years and no further word, but a lot of stuff goes into development hell. Few emerge, most don't.

At this point I'd prefer they just leave it alone.

If they do make a new JQ movie it will just end up another politically correct, agenda driven train wreck...I can see it now.
Hadji and Dr. Zin are both racist stereotypes so they're out.
No guns or violence of any kind, cause guns are bad. Throw in plenty of poop, pee, and fart jokes for Bandit.
Oh, and Race Bannon will be changed to Grace Bannon. Cause we need a strong female character.

No thanks.
