I'm 29 and sometimes I like to watch Tom & Jerry, Jungle Book of Walt Disney, and others. I also like to watch certain sequences of movies over and over again.

Me too, I am 19 and a fan of cartoons like Adventure Time and Friendship is Magic. But I have no problem with that.

Nice to meet a fellow Brony.

Why? What did it say about Bronies when you looked it up?

Am I just being paranoid?

In general, I say that you can do what you want unless you're hurting yourself or anyone around you.

It's a good era to be a comics nerd. Marvel might be rolling out one live-action blockbuster after another, but they've got an equally rabid fan-base of comics lovers (as does DC). Indie comics and cartoon publishing is on the rise, the medium is being taken more seriously as a form of art - hell, my campus even offers "The Graphic Novel: Form and Meaning in Comics" as a junior-level English elective.

Should you be worried about it? Safe answer is probably "no".

Well I am 25 and I just watched the original live action movie of Ninja Turtles....one of my favorite shows as a kid, but seriously for being the late 80's or early 90's when they made it the costumes are quite convincing, I mean it still feels like you're really watching real mutated turtles fighting evil the way they do it and this was before all these computer effects.

I also have some action figures and stuffed animals, I have a cat-girl action figure I found when I was like 7 but not sure where she is at the moment, ironically I think one of my cats pawed her into some dark corner of my room.

tbh i remember being into comics as a kid and 90% of the time if theres a kid in a comic book store there either kinda weird or there parents are in to it. most people who buy comics at this point are collectors in there 40s.

I'm 54, and I don't mind watching Bugs Bunny, etc. I could give a rat's butt what anybody else thinks.

Dude, I still watch cartoons and I'm not much older than you. Sure, I prefer some of the ones I grew up with and Courage the Cowardly Dog still holds a place in my heart as one of my favorite cartoons ever (rest of my family doesn't understand why I like it), but there are even newer ones I like watching. Steven Universe, Adventure Time, Regular Show, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, Littlest Pet Shop, Ever After High, Star vs the Forces of Evil, The 7D, Sofia the First and Wander Over Yonder are all the newer children's cartoons that I like watching. Incidentally, none of these are on Nickelodeon. Most of their current cartoons are either mostly toilet humor or Spongebob. And one of these is a Netflix series. And don't get me started on the movies. I'll keep it short and just say that I am a huge animation geek and Fantasia happens to be one of my favorite films.

Not to mention that I still collect stuffed animals, but that may just be a girl thing. IDK.

So, many cartoons are geared at adults
