Now what I mean by this is what's the worst movie/game/idea you've ever seen turn into a cartoon?
And if I'm honest I have to give my vote to games being turned into such awful cartoons such as the Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter series (granted I did actually watch the MK cartoon, call it guilty pleasure) but re-watching them now is just too much for my mind : [

How about adult movies being turned into children's cartoons, like Robocop, Highlander and Mortal Kombat? There's also that Loonatics show. Those're all I can think of for now.

Probably the Legend of Zelda cartoon. Link is a bumbling Sexist, Ganon sounds like hes on helium and the plots do tend to get pretty goofy.

The same 4Kids that brought us TMNT and Ultimate Muscle.
Although TMNT ended up waaaaaaaaaaaay different than the original comic, I'd say it was better than most adaptations in the 1980s. And the 2003 version was a good adaptation of the comics targeted towards kids. (I mean, c'mon. Would you really show off violent killings in a kid show?)
The Street Fighter cartoon was also pretty bad, but at the same time, really enjoyable. I mean, I bought the Final Fight Double Impact edition not just for the game only, but because it included the Final Fight episode, too! So bad it's good!

Sure! Those cheap second hand poorly animated cartoons like MK, SF, etc.. were horrible.
But quoted on this page, I gotta admit I sorta like the ol' Zelda one! "EXCUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSE ME princess!" Awesomeness! It's people that take Zelda too seriously that can't enjoy the greatness behind that dude-Link!

How About The Cartoon Series....The Jackson 5ive (Wikipedia it) ...There is an episode called Jackson and The BeanStalk....and another called Michael in Wonderland... i can just imagine what the Cartoon Producers were talking abotu when they made this Tv producer: Okay People...we need new ideas for a worthwhile memorable Tv Series... Man 1: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? Tv Producer: No, Too Wierd Man 2: The Jackson 5? Tv Producer: GREAT IDEA KENDEL Man 2: My Name is C-3po human cyborg relations

And in the same spirit, anyone heard about or remembers the Karaté Kid cartoon? I'd like to see the movie Daniel-san and Myiagi pull those stunt off! Ah!

Karate kid cartoon? Whoa? Is there any populair 80's movie that doesn't have a cartoon show? I guess only Indiana Jones, unless you count his bazillion cameo's in Camp Candy.
Haha, 10 years ago I was suprised to see Bobby's World make references to Naked Gun and the Terminator, which I tought was weird and risky for a children's show, but since movies as Highlander and RObocop DO have children's shows...
Man, why don't they do that nowadays anymore? I want a Inception cartoon show, or a Saw and Hostel Children's tv show.

The last Cartoon adaptation I remember seeing was based on The Mummy movies with the O'connell family taking on various supernatural monsters and Imhotep spent most of the time looking like a purple zombie.

Really, though, the game wasn't that bad. The Pinatas didn't talk, for starters :I and it was actually very fun once you got past the excruciating tutorial. It was a lot like a Sim game. You care for your pinatas, make sure they don't get eaten by the sour pinatas, give them homes, keep them happy, make your garden pretty, all that good stuff. The cartoon was... :I Ehhfggg.

Ah, I actually watched an episode of that show to see what it was about, having heard of the Xbox game before but not having played it...
apparently there's a hedgehog-pinata that's afraid of attending partys... but not because he's socially awkward or something, but because of his reasonable concerns of getting beaten to death by little children with sticks for candy.
...
oh, and attending partys to get beaten up apparently is every pinata's job.
