Thundercats 2011 - Page 8

* That makes it sound like Panthro is older than Jaga. Also, I'm cool with this weird take on Tygra, as long as they don't make him a cocky jerk. Also, it's sounding like Lion-o's gonna be a bit of a brat and his feelings towards Cheetara won't be mutual. Of course, I'm just speculating.

Look! The robo bears! And uh.. wolves? and...plant people and fish people (they look like the ones from TMNT) and pigs.....

Why do those characters in the bottom left corner remind me of this:

It's Thursday kids and you all know what that means!!

This week we have:
An interview with Shinichi Matsumi, the supervising director of the studio that's doing the animation and a bunch more piccies.

This is a Ramlak (uh wouldn't wanna mess with one of these things):

This Rock Troll looks more like it belongs in the Neverending Story universe....

The cockpit of the Thundertank:

Anybody able to read the Kanji in these images??

I don't see him in the voice cast yet but not everyone is listed. Im thinking he's either WilyKat or Snarf.

I just found a 30 second snippit that has some of the characters speak. Snarf sounded a little bit like the annoying Dolphin thing Rob voiced in the Land Before Time movies.

I thought they said Snarf couldn't talk in this series.

Did you look at the clip she posted? Snarf didn't say a word in it, but just made a sound. I'm personally disappointed that he won't talk in this one though.

He talks in a way.... he says "Snarf!" alot....and that's about it. Just because he doesn't talk normally doesn't mean he doesn't have a voice actor. Rob voiced Spike the Spiketail in the Land Before Time movies (starting with the 2nd one) and tv series and yet he only actually spoke actual words like 3 times in 20 years....

Almost all of the main characters are accounted for currently. Wilykat, and Grune I don't think have been as of yet. He's not Snarf, as they've said (If any body read) the report from Wondercon I wrote that Snarf is being played by a Japanese voice actor.

*gobo* · 07-02-2011, 12:56 PM

But... But... Rob can be Japanish if he wants. He's talented like that.

And, I thought you said Clancy Brown was Grune.

Ok I just did some quick searching and this is what I found about the cast (even the twins):

Will Friedle as Lion-O
Emmanuelle Chriqui as Cheetara
Kevin Michael Richardson as Panthro
Matthew Mercer as Tygra
Larry Kenney as King Claudus
Clancy Brown as Grune the Destroyer
Robin Atkin Downes as Mumm-Ra
Dee Bradley Baker as Slythe
Corey Burton as Jaga
Madeleine Hall as WilyKit
Satomi Kohrogi as Snarf
Eamon Pirruccello as WilyKat

Jim Meskimen (who was the character designer on the original show) has also been cast but the part is currently unknown.

The other mutants haven't been cast yet so maybe Rob is Vulturman or Jackalman?

Satomi voices most of the cutsie characters in Pokemon (Togepi, Pichu, Mew, ect)

Very correct. I was really tired when I made that post and I couldn't remember if Grune was cast. And awesome job on the rest of that cast list. Unfamiliar with some of those names but I can't wait to hear the kittens new voices.

From that preview it seems to me that this is a next generation type thing. Especially when the King states that the Thundercats defeated Mumm'Ra long ago. It makes alot of sense now. These are the descendants of the original characters some thousands of years later. They have forsaken the tech it took to get to 3rd Earth, built up an empire, and it seems that the Snarfers no longer speak normally.

*gobo* · 07-04-2011, 06:26 PM

No, R'sG. Just... no. This isn't The Legend Of Zelda.

So, I'm glad they didn't make Tygra an unlikable prick, constantly saboutaging Lion-O or just being a whiny ass in general. Didn't IGN state that Cheetara was Lion-O's caretaker or something? Doesn't that mean he should know why she's following him? O_o Snarf is adorable. And, I love that there's this mysterious backstory to their civilzation. So intriguing! ^_^

Actually, that's exactly what my wife assumed too: that this is almost Thundercats: The Next Generation.
