Check out Tom and Jerry: Spy Quest


The new movie has some pros and cons specifically towards the 60s series, but I enjoyed it a lot and if you really just want some Jonny Quest again it's probably going to wet your whistle.

By cons I mean simply this original show was a product of it's era. Given this film is modernly made and crossing over with Tom and Jerry, I'm sure no one really fully expected the tone to be completely like the 60s era. But if you are one of those people that only like 60s era tone and not what we had in the 80s and 90s, this movie's JQ might not be exactly what you wanted.

But like what has been done in a lot of these Scooby and T&J projects, there are a bunch of references. For Jonny Quest i'll give you a few not too big pointers.
1. Jezebel Jade is in it. (Yes seriously, like other movies they dug up a character not been in so long)
2. They drew some monster crabs like the ones from the TOS episode
3. Hadji has his levitation tricks and sim-sim-salabim.

Also even if you don't feel this movie is for you, watch the opening credits, like Scooby Doo and the Mask of the Blue Falcon, this movie has one brilliantly done. It's the original 60s opening with Tom and Jerry spliced in. It is hilarious.

Hey, if you were a fan of the original series check out Future Quest. It's the same tone as the original series, just more sophisticated, and adult-ish. It's a ton of fun. There's more to it, I'm gonna start a new topic if you wanna find out more
