    20 Cartoons We Wish Were Real By Justin White

    In his "Rated G" series, illustrator Justin White recreates our favorite moments in delightful faux animation cels.

    This is Justin White.

    He describes his ongoing "Rated G" project as, "a series of faux animation cels for terrible cartoons that shouldn't happen."

    He can take any scene and make it adorable.

    Inspired by some of his favorite TV shows and movies, the series covers a broad range.

    From classic moments of terror...

    ...to the modern day icons of cinema.

    Unforgettable heroes from the past...

    ...and beloved ensemble casts from today.

    Justin's characters are so perfectly expressive!

    I'm absolutely Mad about them.

    I want Jean Reno to star in this animated series right now.

    And here I thought I couldn't love the Twin Peaks dream sequence even more.

    All work and no play makes Jack a delightfully rendered protagonist.

    Tonight, get ready to go out!

    If you're not sure what to do...

    Then grab your "single serving friends."

    Carry them if you have to!

    Get a hold of them however you can.

    And go out and watch a classic film...

    ...or a modern flick! (It's totally your call.)

    Just don't forget the snacks!

    See you at the movies.
