Bakshi and pals were on POINT with this. It's like a 2D Second Life. I'm absolutely entranced by the visual style of the web-world-- must've been extremely refreshing to be able to change things up so much for just one episode.
For 1997 they did a pretty good job anticipating the feel of what would be the future of avatar based virtual socialization. I suppose they didn't realize broadband would solve most of lag problem.
Well the way I see it, the show's still dead on, atleast for here in the US. There was a feature done a while back and I think it said the majority of people in this country still use dial-up xD. I wouldn't be surprised if it were true.
You may be right about that. Wow, I simply can't imagine a world without broadband. It has encouraged my sense of instant gratification to the point where going back to dial-up may unleash some sort of infantile, homicidal tantrum in the depths of my ID. I have to face it, I am technology's bitch.
We're all pretty much technology's bitch these days xD. But broadband's like this great power, and w/ it comes great responsibility. That reminds me of a quote from some guy, I hear he's pretty famous but I can't remember lol.
@psychicwhoosh going back to dial up would be insanely frustrating but I've purposely done periods without a computer and that's not impossible or as frustrating. It is inconvenient in case you need to quickly look up like where to go or something like that.
Man, does this manage to predict the future quite well.

I wonder what would happen if Champ and China Girl ever met in real life.

the sound they add to the animation when the masks are put on does alot for the effect of being sucked into the virtual world.

@Blakefe I agree, a feature film of this, done in live action and CGI would be great
