Roger Ramjet Audience Reviews

Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?
Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
pointyfilippa The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.
Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
r-brasher It was only a matter of time before ROGER RAMJET was released on DVD, just like most every classic TV show that ever existed (MY MOTHER THE CAR, anyone?). The bad animation and goofy dialog(much of which appeared in words on screen- often misspelled on purpose)add to the appeal of this lost classic cartoon series. I can more fully appreciate the humor now than when I was eight years old and took cartoons more seriously. I would highly recommend this series to anyone who feels the same way I do-believe me, it's that much better 40 years later.You won't escape the awful fate of proton's mighty fury! Rating: ***** out of *****
Anthony Rupert Roger Ramjet aired in 1965, and back then a lot of cartoons were said to have bad animation. (Of course, none of them compare to Japanimation.) Roger Ramjet actually had good animation, but the trouble was that the STYLE of the cartoon was bad. The beginning "credits" have a children's chorus singing a Roger salute to the tune of "Yankee Doodle", and a picture of Roger surrounded by a ring of stars. That part isn't so bad, but when the actual cartoon comes come, whenever the narrator says "Roger Ramjet" it shows a similar star-surrounded picture of Roger. If not that, Roger's name is displayed incorrectly in big letters on the screen (it says "Rojer Ramjet".) Also, for some reason when the narrator speaks (which is whenever the scene changes), the words he says come on the screen. In short, Roger Ramjet is the most generic cartoon I've ever seen.
chrothor I'd say that Roger Ramjet is one of the best "second degree" cartoons I've ever seen. The Cold War atmosphere, the tongue-in-cheek theme played on Yankee Doodle, etc.The closest modern cartoon would be the "Big Guy and Rusty the Boy Robot" series, made by Dark Horse.You know what I mean : shining teeth hero, stars-and-stripes in background, and (important) silly-joke-everyone-laughs at the end.
JDono Roger Ramjet, he's our man/Hero of our nation/For his adventures please stay tuned/To this same TV station...Or something like that. It's been a while since I've heard the theme song, but it was sung to the tune of Yankee Doodle.Roger Ramjet wasn't exactly a high-budget cartoon show. In fact, there's probably less actual *movement* in this show than any other cartoon ever made (with the possible exception of Clutch Cargo), so every episode looks as if it cost about 75 cents to produce. Still, it was a funny cartoon in the Dudley Do-Right vein--well-meaning but ineffectual hero bumbles his way to saving the day.I used to work with a guy who was constantly quoting Ramjet's boss: "Ramjet, you always cease to amaze me."Great Ramjet trivia: There was a classic Cold War villain named Noodles Romanoff.
