The show that was willing to talk about unprotected sex (in the AIDS episode) and the freakin' Troubles did the multicultural gangs thing? Why? You'd think this show, of all things, would take on the racism that happens with gangfighting.
Oh, so they stick the little one in Special Ed, huh? I wonder if anyone realized that this was so politically correct that it breaks the continuum and goes back to being racist again... obviously no one on the production staff.
Wow, Captain Planet! Way to make inner city gang life so realistic! That's exactly how gang members dressed and spoke in the 90's! Am I not being sarcastic enough?
When I hear the title, "Wreckin' Crew", I think automatically think about the movie "Juice". That was the same title 'Pac and his boys called themselves.
And thats non Lenin at 2:30, that's Dr. George Washington Carver, one of the first black men recognized as a chemist and scientist in the U.S., due to his innovative household and agricultural innovation derive from peanuts. He did this during Jim Crow (when they were hanging us from trees instead of killing us with tasers), and that's why he's in the chemistry room.
Cliche, but this cartoon did do some risque stuff, like the one where everyone was shooting up Bliss. Whether you think its political or not, it definitely wasn't just trying to sell as much merchandise as possible (TMNT?)
oh, and.. "Been wantin to give dis tu yu fora long time, dawg!" *fist of READ*
@LetsGo6009 Yeah, but at least TMNT was all about entertainment and having a good time. Captain Planet may have been risque, but it's more preachier than Al Gore.
@rptheory don't get me wrong, I loved the TMNT back in the day, but when I look back it was just mindless consumerism (for better or worse). Cap Planet: Preachy message yes, but at least it had one :P
3:18 Wait, where did that teacher come from? Was she there the whole time watching them fight.....not a very good teacher. And to get on the bandwagon: Hahahaha Mati is in special ed! XD Even the writers I think were trying to make it clear that he was lame.
Notice all the great historical figures in the background.They weep from heaven as they watch this idiocy.Even Malcom X didn't go this far and he was extreme.
Mati is in the special ed class because he's infiltrating the school with the rest of the planeeters to get info out of people connected to the shooters, one gangster's brother being a special ed student (when in reality he was one of the smartest). they were making a point there. the READ tattoo is probably a subliminal message to, well, read. and the gangsters look stupid because, i don't know, maybe gangs are stupid in real life. yes, this is a kids show. people weren't pussies back then.
i think its funny how they try to revamp the show to not only encompass pollution but pollution of the mind and streets. LMFAO... Matee dressed like a Vato is hilarious.
@Magmaster12 They were trying to educate kids about the reality of violence. They need to bring cartoons like this back. We used to have this, School House Rock, etc. Now we got cartoons that just dumb kids the hell down.
@DelliottP They weren't afraid to be ballsy, unlike today's cartoons which dumb kids all the way down to Hell. "My Gym Partner's A Monkey"?! What is that shit?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Captain Planet's laws of how black folks talk:
1. None of those fancy 'nouns' and 'verbs' in 'the hood!' Randomly replace 'em with "real" words used by real "people!"
2. Indiscriminately insert 'dawg,' 'homie,' or 'sucka' into each sentence, no matter how much sense it makes!
3. All hail FCC! No obscenity!
4. Last but not least, just add ignance!
