Thundercats CGI animated feature coming soon.

~~Cropsy~~ · 03-11-2009, 06:18 PM

Warner Brothers is developing a photorealistic CGI animated feature (ala "Beowulf") based on the popular cartoon show of the 80's. Hopefully to cash in on the success of the "Transformers" as i hear they will be faithful and true to the classic toon.

No source? Ah, whatever. You seem very credible.

*gobo* · 03-11-2009, 11:55 PM

Ditto .

Be nice guys.
I found the trailer:

Pay no attention to the title...or the blurb at the end.

*gobo* · 03-12-2009, 12:18 AM

Pretty good for a trailer that's only fake if you read the title or the blurb at the end which surely no one will since they were told not to.

Much better than the one I remember seeing years ago...

Or notice instantly that they used scenes from other movies with horribly composited CGI over them.

Personally I never got Thunder Cats. I liked it as a kid but like He-man I see no need or have zero desire to see it be brought back.

But Thundercats are on the move, Thundercats are loose!

He's waiting so he can make a list of his top Thundercats trailers.

I heard about it being out in 2010, too. I'm actually curious to see how this movie would turn out since I used to watch Thundercats a lot when I was younger.

And knowings half the battle...but that brings up another case...whats the other half of the battle? G.I.Joe never told us.

*Drtooth* · 03-13-2009, 08:38 AM

My question is, are they still even going through with it? I remember they were trying to bring it back as a cartoon a little while back, and the concept was staggeringly lame. Can't remember it, though.

Guess you've never seen the ThunderCats bloopers, Kiwamu.

Anyway, I'm totally thrilled that there's going to be a ThundersCats movie! About damn time.
I just hope it won't be a disappointment like another movie of a retro franchize... *cough*Transformers*cough*

Oh, and that fan-made trailer is pretty slick. I like it. LionO needs bigger hair though. It's a gawdamn mane.

*cough*that's because Michael Bay ain't as good as he thinks he is*cough* But he's not attached to this project, now is he?

My main gripe over the Transformers movie was that there was too much human ****, not enough robots.
It's like only one third of the movie was actually about transformers. The rest was a gimpy love story of boy meets girl.
There are chick-flicks around if I wanted to watch that sort of thing. But in the case of Transformers, I just wanted to see robots. Plain and simple. Not every movie needs romance.
