The New ThunderCats?

[Vuavu]

Fuck... I've been watching all the old ones lately. Even if I had no idea what Thundercats was, I would still hate these new ones

That's "RAEG" for "Thundercats did not need a remake, especially a remake where it looks waaaaay to much like anime."

It looks like anime because it is anime. xD

Why does one of them have a nun-chuck? was that in the original cartoon. They do appear to be done in more of an anime style than the original. Although that is not neccessarily a bad thing I think if you want it to be a delicate recreation of the old series you are going to be disappointed. They will probably change it quite a lot, the character designs are only the beginning, although I am not a fan of Lion-O's pink hair.

At least its not a live action version.

It's being made in Japan, that's why it's anime styled.

It's suppose to be alot darker then the 80's version.

To me it looks better than the old designs (although liono could use ageing) . And why is everyone so down on the he-man remake, sure it was a bit shallow but it was fine for kids.

Why does Kids show = shallow?

There are a few very good kids shows/movies out there that are not shallow.

Take Avatar the Last Airbender (the TV show, not the movie) It was a kids show, but its miles away from being shallow.


Shallow is just what you get when you are making cheap crap to make money, not when making kids shows. It just happen to be a fact that kids don't care to much if a program is shallow. Which means the networks can get away with amazingly bad crap.

He wasn´t saying that Kids Show = Shallow, he was saying that the He-Man remake was shallow, but nevertheless okay for kids. That is a completely legitimate statement and does in no way undermine the fact that "Kids shows" can´t have engaging storys and compelling characters.

Okay, on the Thundercats thing...A: Why does Japan come up with that? and B: I never saw the original, kind of passed by me unnoticed...if this comes out and causes massive RAEG! tho, I might look into it to see what all the fuss is about.

tbh they don't really look all that different to me. Also i don't remember liono having that metal arm. Come to think of it, i don't remember any of the characters looking like they do in the second picture. eh whatever i didn't watch much thundercats as a kid anyways. The remake will probably be extremely nonviolent and kid friendly, which don't get me wrong, isn't bad for a cartoon, but there was a lot of fighting in the old thundercats iirc that I don't think they would be able to get away with now.

Please don't reive Snarf, please don't revive Snarf!
Also just make Lion-O's hair real red rather then that weird colour.

So, any news on this or is it DOA?

When I clicked on this thread I said, "If it is anime, I am going to be so pissed off." My next thought was "Oh my God, it's anime."

I see no pink hair...I was a bit too young to have grown up with the original Thundercats. I remember the show, sure but it was stepping down as I was growing up. I wonder what they did with Snarf and Mummra.
