As I satrted writing about 1986's Teen Wolf cartoon, I thought I would have lots of similar cartoons to compare it to. But then I became stumped - can YOU think of any other cartoons that were based on movies? I can only think of the one other one, The Real Ghostbusters (which also debuted in 1986)... where there any others?

While you think about that, feel free to leave your discussions on the topic of Teen Wolf in the comments below, and then head on over to vote in our Best 0f 1986 Poll!

Well, if we're looking at the 80s:
Beetlejuice
Droids
Ewoks
Godzilla
Karate Kid
Police Academy
Rambo
The Real Ghostbusters
Robocop
And, obviously, Teen Wolf.

The TMNT cartoon was based on the comic book, and the movie appeared to be based on a combination of the two.

Pee-Wee's Playhouse doesn't quite feel like a spinoff. "Hey Vern It's Ernest" is originally from TV commercials. BttF is from the 90s.
