Jul 6 2009Cartoons The Way They Should Have Been

James Cauty created a work entitled Splatter that features the cartoons from your childhood (or mine at least) the way they should have been: bloody (two blood posts in a row -- body fluids FTW!).
Pop artist James Cauty's work Splatter repurposes classic Warner Bros. and Hanna-Barbera cartoons and gives them a Sin City-style blood spatter makeover, "presenting the viewer with unrelenting acts of bloody, cartoon violence, which, in cartoon law, ultimately cannot cause fatal injury."
Great, this is just great. Like we don't have enough problems with today's youth already. Namely: spelling. Seriously, they can't do it -- and I, for one, blame texting. And Grand Theft Auto.
Hit the jump for a couple more shots and a video of the violence in progress. Then punch your roommate in the face and blame it on the cartoon.

Thanks A LOT,
Now my 4 sons are crying like little GIRLS because of these images with too much GORE for their sweet little minds. They just asked me if they could have a barbie because barbies don't BLEED, do they?

@11 Get out of Geekologie...
Computers are for these things:
porn (please post links, dinosaur only ); Geekologie; Buying bacon online; visiting bacon forums; discussing bacon on msn with other people; uploading bacon pictures to facebook, and chatting to hardcore bisexual girls who like it all holes...
Refrain from letting your kids near the pc please.

OLD!!!
Isn't this mebbe a year old?
Also, weren't these cartoons plenty gnarly anyways? Beheadings, suicides, stabings, lotsa shootings, slicings, dicing, getting blown up, crushed (mostly by boulders or anvils), death rayed, run over, poisoned, not to mention the crossdressing, racism, and nudity.
Not like those pansey-ass excuse for cartoons they show today, them's were REAL cartoons!
17. Daisy - July 6, 2009 7:25 PM
FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where Max got stranded on an ice planet and chased by some monsters only to meet a hundred year older version of the jerk who stranded him, on the planet.

Am I the only one whos pretty dang fed up with daisy???????? I swear if she makes another comment like that I will go insane. Oh and by the way that was from the new Star Trek movie, not Never Back Down. >:-(
26. bman - July 6, 2009 9:39 PM
by the way the video sucks
27. led display - July 6, 2009 9:44 PM

28. Chaosthirteen - July 6, 2009 10:22 PM
@25
Daisy's comments never, and as far as I can remember, have never reflected the movie "Never back down," in anything more than name only. That's the charm in Daisy's whimsical comments. Thus in lies the irony. If you're going to tell her that you hate her, at least hate her for the right reasons.
P.S. Daisy still sucks.
P.P.S. So does failure.
P.P.P.S. Although your failure induced anguish sustains me. /Licks Fingers

I always find Daisy's comments insightful and amusing. I probably wouldn't even read these comments if it wasn't for Daisy.
Keep posting Daisy. Never back down.

That was Utter tripe.
If you're going to make the effort of making something, make something original and DO IT WELL!!!
He's just taken somebody else's good work and pissed all over it with bad masks and a single shade of red paint. Its unoriginal and embarrasing. ..
You can bet your bollocks to a barndance that this sh*t was playing on loop at some spotty-faced kid's graduation show, while everybody stood around drinking free champagne and commenting on how post-modern it is.. .
Unoriginal Twaddle.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned Happy Tree Friends.
Now THAT'S sadistic cartooning.
38. Daisy - July 7, 2009 3:13 AM
FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where Max got fu*ked by a bunch of people that thought that this was a decent site. It's to bad that I don't care if people enjoy the site, it's easier to make sure that contributors dislike being here. No matter what they saw. I'm just going to say the same stupid useless joke over and over. No one's going to make me stop. See, I can be as stupid as possible without anyone to stop my ignorant repetitive remarks. And I'm going to do this over and over and over until a majority of you leave this site. But I'll consider myself clever.
39. Nate Piper - July 7, 2009 3:32 AM
if you click the video and go to youtube there is another version of the video that is uncut and not so artsy fartsy. Apparently Warner Brothers had a problem with the first version so the artist had to make it less direct and straight forward. The other video is better, but the sound has been disabled by request of Warner Brothers.

Aw crap, we have another imposter. Seriously, whats up with that? Does it make you feel good being an anonymous turd?
The problem is the true Daisy is unrelentless in her posts with her mocking of photoshop fakers. Unlike most imposters she never backs down.
Ha... see what I did there? I'm so fraking awesome.
51. avery jackson - July 7, 2009 2:31 PM
I like it. It is a cartoon project that pulls no punches and shows what the heck would really happen if a mouse was caught by a cat! there are a few cartoons that follow the same guidelines:

All yo, you now I've always thought of cartoons as nonsense, I mean why should we have animals playing the roles of human and hideous and inanimate creatures like Patrick in Spongebob talking? All I know is I never liked the mouse being beaten by the rat in Tom AND Jerry. I think this is what accounts for this lost and perverse generation of nitwit youngsters, I mean look at anime, what the duce!

daisy is unrelentless? so, not relentless?
P.S. daisy is an anonymous turd, and isn't funny. No one likes "her" so please go white knight about something that matters.
57. Blank Lord - July 8, 2009 12:30 PM
sadly, with all the effort thet the artist tried to put in to this, it's animated very badly.

Daisy, you'll never make people leave with your ridiculous, repetetive comments. Eventually people will only see your name and the familiar amount of words in that first sentence and overlook it completely. You have no real impact on people and you do not establish a point with what you do.

Thank you Daisy Lover. Lets make out tomorrow. But i must tell you that you are completely a photoshop job. I can tell because your shadow's are all wrong. You remind me of this one scene of never back down where Max's hands turn into penises and then i eat them. OM NOM NOM NOM!!!
