If there was ever a time for those Thundercats outtakes...

This is gonna end up as garbage, isn't it?

Is that pic the actual design?

I don't think I like the current toon trend that much but it is what is popular with children.

LOL! Oh my god, when will this end? Every single cartoon....exactly the goddamn same. :lol:

At least Rise of the TMNT doesn't look like this, although the TMNT summer shorts do.

Now Thundercats fans are knowing what some of the TMNT fans feel about there new series.

I'm not quite onboard with these designs. and the fact its not taking itself seriously. This is basically another Teen Titans Go. But based on a beloved 80s cartoon.

Why does it look like every other modern American cartoon?
Not only I detest this design by itself, but the fact that everyone trying to copycat it, is just pathetic.

Ugh, I so miss style of the 80-s.

is it someones mission to take everything we love about the 80s and totally frig it up?

If I had the storyboards, and the original voices on board, and maybe even an original writer.. I'd attempt to make a NEW Turtles episode, taking place after Divide and Conquer just to s how you CAN respect what has come before and STILL make it cool.

but that would be alot of perfect storms to come together to make that happen. sigh.

And I thought I hated Teen Titans Go:(

You miss when characters moved stiff as cardboard and there were almost basically no violence, also when it was so PC that they change Baxter into a white guy just because they would't offend anyone.

I would welcome a TTGo! Thundercats show, but man those designs are so awful, they look exactly like the TMNT Team Up shorts (same artist?). I like TTGo! humor but the Team Up humor definitely wasn't as good as TTG.

Why did the Thundercats 2011 revival bomb? The character designs looked awesome and the trailers were cool. Was it because Cartoon Network started their hate towards action shows at that time?

The 2010's will likely be remembered as a dark time for cartoons aside from a few standouts. This decade has definitely been worse than 2000-2009 or the 90's for cartoons.

Please even at its worst 2010s still crap on the 60s/70s/80s

The linework looks a little too Uncle Gran'pa for my tastes, but it could be good story-wise.

My god I am 100,000 percent done with Cartoon Network. I mean what in THE holy f*(k.

I can't be done with them, they're giving me a Harvey Birdman movie!
And Steven Universe is still pretty awesome.

SO sick of this copy-&-paste CalArts/Tumblr BS art style taking over the west.

Everything in the 90s had X-TREME angles, now everything is built on a curve.

The writing on the show could be good, I guess there's potential even if I'd say He-Man just has more stuff to work with for parody and comedic situations. but man that art style is so off putting, TTG has much better chibi art.

This 2011 reboot should've been the greatest thing ever, I mean I re-watched Thundercats two years before the 2011reboot and while the 80s show reeked of the 80s it did plenty of world building that anyone could shape up a super interesting story based on all the lore. How did it fail?

I like the type of designs SDP posted but it seems this other type is the thing at the moment, is it a younger kid audience thing? Thinking of things like Gumball I'd say maybe not, the content though not over old didn't really yell 4-year-old at me either.

I wholeheartedly agree.


If they keep this up, there will be an animation crash.

It's like Disney Same Face!
(I'm usually okay with the animation style being less impressive so long as the writing holds up. And while I can't speak to the 'toons on the right, the ones on the left have some of the best storytelling I've seen in cartoons.)

Thank god Young Justice Season 3 is coming out late this year (or early next year). I need to watch a quality western action cartoon again.

Generic art-style is off putting but I don't know I think this could be fun.

Looks like a cute and fun show. Hopefully it'll be popular enough to get the ThunderCats Classics license going faster.

It could also pave the route for a "traditional" show in a few years after this show is over or a movie. The 2011 show, the 2011 toyline, the Bandai Classics Toy Line and the Mattel Classic Toylines were either cancelled/short lived/bombed so the future of the franchise didn't look good, this is likely the only pitch that made sense to try to revive the property.

Just ... what happened to you, man?

First Marvel's Spider-Man, and now this? Like, really?!

Oh my god 5 shows and a videogame have similar artstlyes for their main characters its Western Animation has no diversity

Personally not the type of tone I'd go for but it is Thundercats and I do enjoy Teen Titans Go so I will check it out.

Oh... my god. It doesn't even feel like it could be a real thing, rather like they've got to just be trolling Thundercats fans SUPER hard. Mind blown, but not in a good way. :ohwell: If this LAZY crap is really what's so "popular" in the industry right now, wtf.

Do they all have the same teacher that is just teaching students this style and nothing else?? Is it a lack of talent in schools these days, but hey if you do THIS, which is as easy as we can make it, it's a win?


That video...

"I grew up watching Thundercats, my older brothers were super into it." So I decided to grow up and piss them off by effing it over completely! Huzzah!

I mean, talk about a chance to stick it to a sibling if you get to work on a franchise they once loved, or, better yet, still do.

If I had an older sibling that had a big hand in screwing up TMNT, be it things I'm hating about "Rise" or if it had become that crap we saw as shorts that looks like this... Yeah, very possible that the relationship might be rather strained for a while.

I loved the 2011 show and was crushed that it died after one season. I think it had two things working against it: low toy sales and the inexplicable bias that Cartoon Network had against WB Animation shows that also affected DC superheroes (Young Justice, Beware the Batman, etc.) and Scooby Doo Mystery Inc.

Holy cow, I never noticed how identical that face was. Does the internet have a slang name for it yet?

Machias Banshee said it best.

Are there ANY action cartoons even on the air right now?

The only ones I could think of are the ones that just ended, like Nick's TMNT, Star Wars Rebels, Samurai Jack's final season, or Young Justice. And Justice League Action was just recently confirmed canceled after just 1 season too.

WTF.

Until Young Justice Season 3 comes, the next Star Wars cartoon, or Rise of the TMNT...there are no action shows anymore.

I haven't seen Big Hero 6: The Series, but it does look cool. Also, the English dub on Dragonball Super airs "new episodes" on Cartoon Network Saturday nights.

I don't give a **** about change of Baxter.
I like that characters and backgrounds looked much more detailed and while some of the episodes were animated like **** others looked much better. Not this semi-flash vomit that plagues everything nowadays.
Also, I don't care about violence.

60-70 might agree, 80-s, no.

Your examples look like all the same - abstract **** with curves.
Not better than sameface styles of the past. Not at all.

You literally always take the time to complain about progressives but now you say you dont give a ****. Also find me an example where a 80s tv show had fluid animation that isnt from the intro

Looks more like a Mighty Magiswords/OK KO deal to me.

1) TMNT is pretty good example of good animation in some episodes. For example Season 1.
2) I am not obsessed, so I am capable of not giving a **** if I don't feel like it.

Oh please if this was anything else you would go on a long tirade on how progressives are ruining everything but because this is a cartoon from your childhood you let it slide.

Oh my, my dear poor leftie friend, how low you think of me...I am finding it very funny. I almost want you to make even more wild accusation about me, just to have fun at your expense. :lol:

And no, I wouldn't go on a tirade since in original comic book Baxter was black.
Does it answer your question?
