Thundercats 2011 - Page 5

JB Rifta · 02-11-2011, 03:18 PM

Im always keen to check out a revamped old cartoon and this should be no exception. The only thing I dont like is the way the same to have gone (based on the design pic in this thread) with the clunky style of animation (like Wolverine & the Xmen/TF Animated). I realise its a cartoon and all but for some reason I find it harder to get into a show when the characters are drawn like that.

I saw an image of Wilykat, so now I'm half happy. Just need Kit to complete me. I also joined the forum yesterday, looks like a great site.

yeah but i loved the end though:

Lion-O: Did that hurt Slyth?
Lion-O as Slyth: why yes it did and i learned my lesson
Lion-O: good

*Brodie* · 02-14-2011, 05:39 PM

I thought it was entertaining for what it was...

And I've been watching the original series over the last two weeks...they're ridiculous, campy, silly, etc. So, that video? Was no where near as bad.

Did anyone catch the preview clip that aired on CN today?

Edit: Until a better version turns up:

Noice !

Slightly better quality version of the trailer, not HD but at least its captured from the tv and not recorded from a camcorder..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWrh1axPj0M

That trailer got me excited again, which I kinda had lost interest after starting re-watching the 80s show, which so far I'm 23 episodes in and its well... I caught re-runs in the early 90s when I was very young so i don't remember much, I didn't hate the show but it wasn't one of my favorites either, I remember the setting seemed grim and not knowing exactly what the plot was besides fight evil guys.
Now that I'm rewatching it, Third Earth is an amazing place, its full of interesting stuff, the problem is they never explain a goddamn thing or do anything beyond "hey this is the new good/evil guy" and never bother to explore third earth which you just never understand and fill away with plotholes (so many and I'm only 20 episodes in), maybe they explain more later but I highly doubt it. Now the main problem with the show is the era its from, like most 80s shows all the main characters are cardboard cut outs and not interesting or likable at all. Ironically Snarf is the most interesting character out of them all (and to a lesser extent Wilykit/cat). Even so this show is better than most of the 80s shows, while it has boring characters like every other 80s show at least it has a very interesting world and some sense of continuity. And who knows maybe the show does get better even though I kinda doubt they'll change the status quo.
