Life is like a hurricane here in Duckburg! Racecars, lasers, aeroplanes; it's a duck-blur. Sorry, my mind is on that catchy theme song of the new series that is the reboot of the late 80's Disney cartoon classic everybody loves. Of course, I'm talking about DuckTales!
In the start of the series, Donald Duck leaves his nephews, Huey, Dewey, and Louie in the care of his uncle and their great- uncle, Scrooge McDuck while he goes for his job interview, unaware that his new boss is Scrooge's arch- nemesis, Flintheart Glomgold!
Scrooge, his nephews, and Webby (who is brave, and is a tomboy in this series) go to the Lost City of Atlantis to get a jewel. Glomgold, Donald and his baddies go to get it too.
The episode had two parts. The first part was introductions and accidently releasing a dragon that goes after Scrooge's Money Bin. The second part had more action and excitement with Atlantis. I'm not going to tell you any more, but the ending reveals something.
This reboot stars the tenth Doctor, David Tennant as Scrooge, Danny Pudi from Community, and others. Donald's voice actor (who voiced him for over 30 years) reprises his role. Donald was hard to understand at times (which I'm sure you knew). The person that voices Ludwig Von Drake also reprises his role (he wasn't in the premiere). This series will have old characters in it as well as new ones. I even hear that Darkwing Duck will appear! Mickey won't though, but that's okay. This series is just for the ducks to shine!
So, is this a good reboot? Ja; it's good and entertaining. This is much better then that crap Teen Titans Go. When I first saw that show, I was like 'am I on drugs? What the H word am I watching?' I'm not confident when CN does reboots, but with Disney, there's a huge chance I am. And hopefully Nickelodeon won't disappoint either with its upcoming reboots and revivals.
If you like the original, or the comics by Carl Barks, I think you won't be disappointed in this reboot. And the network is confident too it seems for it green lit it for a second season before the premiere! If things go well, (and I'm confident it will) they had made the right decision! The series returns on September 23rd, a few days after the original premiered back in 1987, and I can't wait; woo-oo!
