"Cartoon Network has announced at the official Adult Swim boards that they have picked up Cowboy Bebop: The Movie, Metropolis, and two Inuyasha movies for 2005. Metropolis is scheduled to premiere in "early 2005," the Inuyasha movies in Spring and Summer, and Cowboy Bebop: The Movie in the Fall.

Which Inuyasha movies they are showing is unspecified, however at this time only two movies are licensed, the first movie, Inuyasha the Movie: Affections Touching Across Time, and the second one, Inuyasha: The Castle Beyond the Looking Glass."

Awesome! I never saw Metropolis can't wait to check it out.

Also, Seth Green's project will air in January.

New Family Guy = Summer 2005

Stroker and Hoop = Summer 2005

Boondocks = Fall 2005 ("will likely be noticeably edgier than when it first appeared on Fox")

I am glad to see some movies come to adult swim. I am tired of watching Pokemon the first movie every 2.5 seconds on cartoon network.

For those few with Adult Swim on Demand, they have added the film Mobile Suit Gundam F91 to the list of available shows.

 

[Vargas]

Will Family Guy, American Dad and Boondocks still air on Fox though. When I saw the bumper (or whatever they are called on Adult Swim) it seemed as if Fox didn't want to bother with them.

Metropolis has been coming on and off Starz for about a year now. Same with Bebop. :/

Well, it sounds like at least Boondocks is going to air on Fox. Can't say for the others.

I honestly came into this thread hoping for a Brak Show movie.

 

[FortNinety]

Well I don't watch Inuyasha, and the other two films are not that great, but at least it's a sign of things to come.

You mean the pilot of Stroker and Hoop actually had good enough ratings to continue with the series?

I was wondering when they'd start showing movies on AS. Would be great to show one on Friday nights or something.

Cartoon Cartoon Friday is for the kids.

Cartoon Cartoon Friday is for the kids.

I thought it reverted to 60s cartoons at 11:00.

 

[levious]

I believe currently the replay the entire night of cartoon cartoons.

It's rare to see old HB cartoons now that Boomerang is more wildly availible. Although they still might do the occasionaly boomerang blocks as a promotion.

I'm pretty sure they just replay Fridays. Or maybe it's Scooby Doo. Since that's pretty much Cartoon Network's default "we have nothing else to show" option.

They replay "Fridays". However, Saturday is ripe for AS movies. God knows the Saturday lineup could use the help.

I'm sure it will be Saturday.

By the way, I don't know if you know, but in October, The Animatrix is gonna take over the Saturday block on 10/30, and Read or Die is taking Saturday 10/23 (the complete OVA in sequence in one block). At least, that's according to Cartoon Network's released schedule.

Didn't they try a Gundam movie on Saturday?

 

[MetatronM]

Bump for the late crowd.

[RevenantKioku]

Futurama and Inuyasha are the staple of AS though, they really need them because it seems like people go for one of them and stay for the others.

Although that said, I'm quite glad Metropolis is going to be shown. Truth be told, I had a few tears welling up at the end of that.
