Æon Flux

[Memory]

I've been rewatching the entire series of Æon Flux (1991) recently, I wondered if anyone here had watched it and what their thoughts were on the show?

I've always loved the vibe of the show because some of the people involved in the music and art direction of the earlier Rugrats worked on this, so it has a very similar vibe to that (and oddly, kinda gives me Real Monsters vibes though I am not aware of anyone from that show or Klasky-Csupo in general having been involved with Æon Flux).

But yeh, just thought I'd spark conversation about this masterpiece... I have a thing for surreal, dystopian, '90s animations.

I'm a huge fan of literally anything MTV but I have yet to watch AEon Flux even though it's been on my mind for a year or so, I have bits and memories of seeing like one episode on VHS and it was the surrealist experience because I had never seen anything like it haha.

direction of the earlier Rugrats worked on this

Rugrats was like , my obsession, and this makes perfect sense actually I can find certain artistic parallels between the two but I could have never pieced it together on my own. That's really cool though, I was head over heels for Rugrats and especially anything REPTAR so I'm surprised I still haven't watched this show aaaghh!! I will try to squeeze a few episodes in during the time I have and report back on my thoughts

I definitely recommend you give it a watch if you liked classic Rugrats and its artistic style :)

I also loved 90s MTV, especially its Liquid Television segment - The Maxx was a huge obsession to me, after watching the MTV show I found out it was a comic by Sam Keith and read every single issue religiously lol.
