WatchMojo's picks for the Top 10 James Bond Themes:
#10 - "You Only Live Twice" #9 - "For Your Eyes Only" #8 - "Die Another Day" #7 - "Nobody Does It Better" #6 - "Diamonds Are Forever" #5 - "Skyfall" #4 - "A View to Kill" #3 - "Thunderball" #2 - "Live and Let Die" #1 - "Goldfinger"
Seems appropriate, but different compared to mine. I personally think "The Man With the Golden Gun" deserved to be on the list.

I know what you mean, Belchic! I am surprise the Song didn' make the list, either! o.o
Isn' it correct that Micheal Kamen, who also does the Soundtrack to the "Live Action" "101 Dalmatians", does the Soundtrack to; License to Kll, where he needs to drive that truck or something, Pups? ;3

I think when they made the list, they were going by...
A) What best classifies as a Bond theme and suits the franchise. B) How popular the artist was. C) How huge a hit the song became.
For example, "Goldfinger" and "Thunderball" best represent the franchise. (The latter was parodied somewhat by Weird Al in 1996 as the opening for the movie, Spy Hard.)
Paul McCartney and Carly Simon were popular artists with huge careers.
"A View to Kill" was such a monster hit for Duran Duran and was the only Bond theme to hit #1 on the Billboard charts by far.
They intentionally left off THE James Bond theme since it stands alone and is featured in every Bond movie.

This is a list I was plotting for a while.
As a lot of people probably know, what was cool in the 1980s is worth bringing back to become pop culture, but by contrast a lot of what came out in the 1990s hadn't aged terribly well. However, like the last two lists I listed I am going to throw that decade a bone and make a list for:
Top 10 1990s cartoons that Aged Well
#10: Beast Wars Transformers (1996) #9: Beavis and Butthead (1993) #8: The Tick (1994) #7: Rocko's Modern Life (1993) #6: Sonic SatAM (1993) #5: 101 Dalmatians: the Series (1997) #4: Tiny Toon Adventures (1990) #3: Ed, Edd n Eddy (1999) #2: The Critic (1994) #1: Batman: the Animated Series (1992)
Honorable Mentions
TaleSpin (1990) Rugrats (1991) King of the Hill (1997) Histeria! (1998) The Powerpuff Girls (1998)

Nice to see you make up your own list rather than post an official one for once, Trey. Although, I'd have to disagree with both 101 Dalmatians and Ed, Edd, n Eddy. As much as I love those shows, I feel that both of them are very very dated.

As Trey & I have explain to you, Belchic, Technology is nt jst a base to use, when it comes to if a show is dated. It depends how the Characters act, or if the Stories can work today.
As Trey claims; “101 Dalmatians The Series” isn’ trying to; “Psh an attitde" that mst shows of the Nineties try to do. The dialogue lines that the Dalmatian Characters has, stll means something today, rathr than use Nineties lngo, extreme mannerisms or “Radicl Rpping!” that mst Nineties Shows tend to have. Case in point being; Like how some claim Quack Pack acts like.
So, as we claim; “101 Dalmatians The Series” stll works really well! ;3 That is likely a reason why Disney Junior air the Episodes, cause how they act still makes sense today. ;3
As I ask Trey though, you plan to do a lst of Nineties Shows, that seem datd to you, Trey? ;3

I still think the pups' attitudes are very 90's-esque.
Though as for EE&E, I once asked what time period the show took place in because Eddy had a turntable, a disco ball and a lava lamp in his room, and no kid in the culdesac seemed to have any cell phones, iPods or laptop computers. Also, Kevin's backwards baseball cap was a 90's style. Though I was told it was supposed to take place in modern times despite all that.
So long story short, I still say neither of those shows belong on that list because 101D is dated, and Ed's is a show that time threw up on.

So long story short, I still say neither of those shows belong on that list because 101D is dated, and Ed's is a show that time threw up on. Well, when Danny Antonucci was talking about his work on Ed, Edd n Eddy, he explicitly stated he wanted the show to have a timeless feel. If Eddy's room seemed very 70s, he could get away with that because a lot of people remember that time. The reason none of the kids on the series have cell phones, Game Boys, iPods or PDAs is because it would have clearly dated the show; there's nothing funny about talking on a touch-screen phone, playing video games though the World Wide Web or watching a movie on Netflix.

Sure man. I just did this list.
Now, sour with the sweet, you have seen the 90s cartoons I feel have aged well, now here's:
Top 10 1990s Cartoons that Aged Badly
#10: Animaniacs (1993) #9: Extreme Ghostbusters (1997) #8: Aaahh!!! Real Monsters (1994) #7: Littlest Pet Shop (1995) #6: Double Dragon (1993) #5: The Mask (1995) #4: Captain Planet and the Planeteers (1990) #3: Yo Yogi! (1991) #2: Quack Pack (1996) #1: My Little Pony Tales (1992)

I remember hearing of the Yogi one, that’s the one where he has a Detective Agency, in a Mall, isn’ it? Though, what is it, with some Spn-ff Shows, and being detective shows, You Know what I mean? ;3
With me, the issue with Timn & Pumb is that they have practically no continuity, with the Film. With; "101 Dalmatians The Series", it may be in America, but the Continuity is still plausible and makes sense in the World, they're in, Eh? ;3
I think, a reason why most shows of the Nineties try to; "Push Their Attitude" is cause, this is when the Simpsons are at their height, with Bart being the Show's Poster Character, so there are some shows that try to do a Follow on what Bart is like, You Know what I mean? ;3
May I ask, you have reasons on why some of these shows seem to nt age well, Trey? ;3
