The Movie Corner

There are actually quite a few cartoons out there that feature cartoon characters that drive, own or have something to do with a van and many of them are tuned in by millions a day. Some of these are made for the smaller generations and some of these havent seen any real success in the cartoon world in a lomg while. Here are the ones that came into my head first.

The Infamous Mystery Machine

If there was a top trumps game based on cartoon vans then this card would beat all of them hands down. In terms of putting a van inside a cartoon this is the one that really kicked it off. 1969 is the year in which Scooby Doo was first aired making it a whopping forty years old this year! The show is of course still running and apprently the need for teenage mystery solving gangs has not fallen at all in the forty years. It is pressumed that they always use someone in disguise instead of a real monster so that younger kids are not scared. I wonder if they have that van on Van Leasing

Postman Pat’s Van

This is more of a stop-motion feature than a cartoon but it has to be mentioned as it is certainly the most famous van to be made by somebody here in Britain It was first screened in 1981 and a newer series was made for 2006. This show was aimed mainly at the younger age group and both me and all of my friends were big fans when we were younger. The brilliant thing about Postman Pat is that he is the only Postman able to deliver the post on time!

Cheap Van Leasing has got to be something that these toons held in their minds when getting these vans.

Which has the best van in the popular South Park, Family Guy and South Park series, read part two to find out. Small van leasing is key for the next part.
