So, Avatar the Last Airbender with cats?


dead_cat - 2011-02-26

Cat's that aren't blue.


fluffy - 2011-02-27

Wrong Avatar.


Caminante Nocturno - 2011-02-27

Catatar, the Last Furbender.


fatatty - 2011-02-27

I can haz unobtainium?


WHO WANTS DESSERT - 2011-02-26

Oh man, this 80s cartoon series designed to sell toys has totally sold out!


Corpus Delectable - 2011-02-26

Needs a line of Thundercat-themed adult toys for furries.


freedoom - 2011-02-26

I never understood Snarf. Is he a pet? is he just a less evolved form of thundercat?

Also Lion-o looks like he's 14, and where's Mumm-ra!


garcet71283 - 2011-02-26

Just going by the trailer... looks like a prequel.


Agent #1 - 2011-02-26

If you remember the pilot which I'M SURE EVERYONE DOES you would know that Lion-O started the series as a child, and it was only because his suspension capsule malfunctioned and did not stop his aging but instead only slowed it, that he was left with the mind of a child in the body of an adult.


RomancingTrain - 2011-02-26

Duder, the only thing I remember from the pilot is that the cheetah chick didn't wear a shirt in it.


augias - 2011-02-27

She didn't have rockin tits last time either. Five for sexualizing everything.


Rape Van Winkle - 2011-02-27

Mumm-ra at 0:16, fucko.


phalsebob - 2011-02-27

augias... it was a different time. People just liked smaller tits on cats back then.


Caminante Nocturno - 2011-02-26

So when are we going to see the remake of Rainbow Brite where she's a beam-firing, Nanoha-esque magical girl?

I'd like to see that.


duck&cover - 2011-02-26

I thought they were going to be in a rock band, with Snarf as their manager.


Jet Bin Fever - 2011-02-27

We're Panthro and the Thundercaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatss!


RomancingTrain - 2011-02-26

This looks so much better than the original.


voodoo_pork - 2011-02-27

The book was better.


Rape Van Winkle - 2011-02-27

Thundercats should be read on the original cuneiform tablets.


pressed peanut sweepings - 2011-02-26

Thundercats sucked and it will suck once more.


fluffy - 2011-02-27

Yes, this, exactly.


Riskbreaker - 2011-02-27

Nice animation, lets see how the plot goes.


StanleyPain - 2011-02-27

I have no special respect or love for the original Thundercats, but ANOTHER fucking anime-esque "edgy" revamp? Christ....


Shoebox Joe - 2011-02-27

"Snarf"? More like "Barf"!

I don't think there is a good future. The trailer looks great, but if they're doing what I think they're doing, they're going to waste this show on pointless fucking exposition of the homeworld plus whatever drama they can get out of it.

Seriously, I was just watching an episode of Avatar and the ex-antogonist now comrade got disheaveled because he was told "if we're a team then we must hug each other."

I seriously fucking hate it when shows try to act as if plot canon = enviroment.


themilkshark - 2011-02-27

I will be watching this, it looks almost as cool as Swat Kats.


Rape Van Winkle - 2011-02-27

I hope it's not on opposite Samurai Pizza Cats.


kingarthur - 2011-02-27

What, no Panthro? Thundercats are keepin' the brothers down.


Shoebox Joe - 2011-02-27

That's because the animation isn't being outsourced. Or maybe it is.

I no longer regret laughing at Ching Chong Wing Wong!


Shoebox Joe - 2011-02-27

Aw shit, that's the Chinese. My bad you guys.

But still, fuck you Japan and your foot print on American culture.


Zhou Fang - 2011-02-27

WHAT no BoboBerbils!?!?!

I remember the pitch for this from a couple of years back. It involved them living in LA and playing in a rock band. I really wish they went through with that.


fatatty - 2011-02-27

Stop crying:

Jet Bin Fever - 2011-02-27

They should've killed off Snarf when they had the chance. I'm guessing they don't have those stupid robots anymore though, that's a plus.


Dirty Sanchez - 2011-02-27

Hopefully Tigra will actually do something in this series.


twinkieafternoon - 2011-02-27

"If it's not like Yu-Gi-Oh!, kids won't watch it!"


sosage - 2011-02-28

Modern animation has perfected panning dullness.
