Thundercats reinvented

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Thundercats reinvented

Post by Hound » Tue Aug 22, 2006 6:45 pm

WB animation is remaking the Thundercats as an animated TV series.
The animation style is whimsical, Americanized-anime, along the lines of Teen Titans.

The setting is modern-day Earth, in a major city (possibly LA)

The Thundercats are all teenagers.

Their leader is Snarf (!) who is now a mystic with a "third" eye.
Each of the Thundercats has a weapon with an "Eye of Thunderra" and transformative powers (not just Lion-O)

When they aren't fighting evil, the Thundercats play together as a rock band. That's not a typo, or a joke. They are rockin' cats in their present form.

Mum-Ra now has wings.

And I bet he laughs a bit more than he used to =P
Developing...
Not sure how true this is.

Whoa. You know they're going to make Panthro play bass.

When they start digging up Silverhawks, THEN it's going to be out of hand.

I suspect it to be rubbish... at least I hope it is.

Which they aren't - that's supposedly Legion.

No, not that one.
