Really? by Pr_Frink	Jun 6th, 2007 12:34:09 AM
Does anybody really want this? I loved the show as a kid, but isn't this going to far? Are we going to get Brave-Starr: The Movie and a Silverhawks feature as well? How about MASK? Hell, let's remake every marginal 80's cartoon into a movie.
i think we can all agree this is b/c of Transformers by slder78	Jun 6th, 2007 12:34:10 AM
Thus, the next step is G.I. Joe, and Smurfs. Imagine, Pixar makes Smurfs, and we all go to see it on shrooms. it'd be the greatest movie experience since Phoebe Cates opened her bikini.
Oooohhh.... by Playkins	Jun 6th, 2007 12:34:16 AM
I remember this well. While my friends were watching "She-Ra", I used to drool over Lion-O. She-Ra only had that panzy guy with the heart on his chest.
Well I'm down for the plot line! by RevSick	Jun 6th, 2007 12:35:35 AM
Pre voyage Thundercats is definatly an interesting premise, and hopefully ends with their first run in with Mum-ra and the mutants. Let's see how this shapes up.
Cast by Virtual Satyr	Jun 6th, 2007 12:36:57 AM
Paul Walker as Lion-o, Clive Owen as Tygra, Samuel L. Jackson as Panthro, Jessica Beil as Cheetra, Dakota Fanning as the female twin, some up and coming young bastard as the male, and the voice of Paul Giamatti as Snarf. With Luiz Guzman as Mum-ra and Vin Deisel as Mum-Ra hulked out.
Oh Dear... by Ruddy Heck	Jun 6th, 2007 12:37:51 AM
A Thundercats movie?? Give me a break. What's next, a Dangermouse movie? Captain Planet? Actually, that would be cool... and never more relevant! GO PLANET!

Next for WB: Road Runner Live Action!! by wadi77	Jun 6th, 2007 12:51:53 AM

Voltron is next by Veni Vidi Vici	Jun 6th, 2007 12:57:44 AM
you know it to be true.
.. by huggerorange	Jun 6th, 2007 12:58:29 AM
this movie will be some cool lord of the rings/ fith element hybrid if they stick to the cartoons story.
Thundercats live action? by Motoko Kusanagi	Jun 6th, 2007 01:00:14 AM
Will it involve Shia LaBeuof and a cat? F*cking?
vtron by huggerorange	Jun 6th, 2007 01:00:38 AM
i cant think of voltron ever being more than a power rangers movie..just cant picture it at all..thats shits gonna take some genius writing.
80's ASS RAPE (robertsilence) by BigBlackDude	Jun 6th, 2007 01:01:02 AM
The 80's produced some of the best in pop culture. Everything we see today pretty much was done in the 80's. Example: Power Rangers = Voltron.
SHIA LEBOUF... by BigBlackDude	Jun 6th, 2007 01:04:25 AM
... should play Lion-O and then go fuck himself.
vtron no tfs by huggerorange	Jun 6th, 2007 01:07:55 AM
I could always picture transformers being something cool if it were done live action ..even way before they announced the M bay movie...but Voltron?.. i cant think anything more than blocky looking cat robots connecting together to form a giant turd cat-man robot thing. I cant even remember what voltron's villains were.Wasnt there like a space ship version of voltron?? Where these little space ships would connect to form a big turd spaceship-man turd?
Hey, Voltron? What about Road Runner? by wadi77	Jun 6th, 2007 01:10:10 AM
I would like to see that in live action!
Liono! by huggerorange	Jun 6th, 2007 01:11:22 AM
Lion o should be played by Fred Willard!!! he looked almost exactly like Lion O in Epic movie!.. even though he was playing Aslo from Narnia
That show was so gay by jimmy_009	Jun 6th, 2007 01:11:39 AM
How about a CGI Smurfs instead? I'd actually go see that. Not this garbage.
I always though gargamel was by huggerorange	Jun 6th, 2007 01:13:09 AM
I always though gargamel was played by frank welker but hes not. smurfette was fucking hot though..
they are already making a smurfs... by lionbiu	Jun 6th, 2007 01:17:14 AM
...movie, Paramount have the rights to it and it will be a trilogy that is a parody of LOTR. Don't believe me...go check it out, just type Smurfs Movie in any search engine and you'll get the story.
Scott Speedman as Lion-O! by DarthBakpao	Jun 6th, 2007 01:17:18 AM
It is only a matter of time but i don't expect it to be this soon. Thundercats was one of my fav cartoon in the 80's. I hope they make it more gritty, less campy. Jessica Biel as Cheetara, Jim Caviezel as Tygra, Vin Diesel as Panthro
First earth? by beerbaby	Jun 6th, 2007 01:20:44 AM
I like to think that Thundercat earth is first earth, Tolkien earth is middle earth, and then this is earth 3. No wait, forget that Maybe first earth is pre crisis, earth 2 is post crisis. And this is new earth, No wait... Now there are 52 earths. Oh forget it, wheres my tigersharks movie.
Lame-O! by Zardoz	Jun 6th, 2007 01:22:01 AM
Like The Transformers movie, I could give a shit in a litterbox about this film...
LION-O SHOULD BE PLAYED BY... by BigBlackDude	Jun 6th, 2007 01:22:28 AM
... a black man. I mean come on, who other than a brotha could rock an orange lop-sided afro.
ADRIAN BRODY SHOULD PLAY... by BigBlackDude	Jun 6th, 2007 01:32:18 AM
... Vulture Man. He's already got the nose.
Jessica Biel for Cheetara by turk128	Jun 6th, 2007 01:56:18 AM
Make it so!
This is fucking ridiculous. by Cotton McKnight	Jun 6th, 2007 01:57:50 AM
I mean really. I watched the show when I was a kid but come on!
though i will say.. by Cotton McKnight	Jun 6th, 2007 01:58:59 AM
I am glad to read that I am not the only one who had the hots for Cheetarah. I always thought it was strange that I thought a cartoon character was hot, but now I realize that it is perfectly normal!

Cheetara without upper-garment in the Pilot episode... by DarthBakpao	Jun 6th, 2007 02:12:32 AM
... i was shocked when i saw it, wow, Cheetara's nude!
The Cheetarah opening sequence was genius by SpencerTrilby	Jun 6th, 2007 02:18:17 AM
looks like some sick Kawajiri style, but for a cheap 80's show. I always wondered why, with the actual CGI, no one was able to convey that kind of in-your-face feeling on live action flicks.
Opening sequence by Howling_Fantods	Jun 6th, 2007 02:25:40 AM
I remember always being disappointed that the show never lived up to the action-packed opening sequence. Maybe they should just do a live-action remake of the opening. I mean listen how unhinged Mum-Ra is in his brief screen time. BLAAAAAWWRRGGAHHH!! You don't kid that brand of shit-house crazy in animated villains these days.
Thundercats . . . Nappy-headed hooooos! by mascan42	Jun 6th, 2007 02:28:37 AM
Ok terrific
WTF??? by boogy110	Jun 6th, 2007 02:30:36 AM
This is going to suck ass, I mean the idea is totally cool in comics and cartoons; but as a live action flick??? Get the fuck outta here!
Who plays Snarf? by mighty boosh	Jun 6th, 2007 02:33:46 AM
...Micky Rooney. That's who.
THundercats live action could be really cool or by GornPirate	Jun 6th, 2007 02:36:27 AM
Really gay. They have to get the look of these characters right or forget about it. I would go for more alien/cat like appearence and less human than they were drawn in the series/comics or it will just look like a human with feline features painted on their face.
They're remaking Centurions too by SpencerTrilby	Jun 6th, 2007 02:39:38 AM
that's called Iron Man, coming May 2008. Middle-aged man complete with armor and moustache.
"What the f- is a samoflange?" by Valkyrie_Lenneth	Jun 6th, 2007 02:53:44 AM
'bleh' to remakes. but i guess there's nothing new under the sun. could be interesting.
I fucking love the Thundercats... by Fenton Meiks	Jun 6th, 2007 03:03:38 AM
...but come on, a live action version would suck a gorilla's plums clean off its body. Why not just make a huge fuck off animated extravaganza, and get Miyazaki to make it. Would beat the fuck out of Shrek 3...
Spencer I really hope that was a joke.... by RevSick	Jun 6th, 2007 03:05:24 AM
...I mean really, it's way to easy to infer the wrong meaning and I hope I'm doing just that with your comment.
Ideal casting for Mumm-ra (the ever-living) by Fenton Meiks	Jun 6th, 2007 03:06:07 AM
Has to be Michael Jackson.
Casting perfection... by TopHat	Jun 6th, 2007 03:23:52 AM
Lion-O = Russell Crowe; Cheetarah = Rebecca Romijin; Panthro = Ving Rhames; Tygra = Ethan Hawke; Wilykat and Wilykit = unknown child actors; Jaga = Sean Connery; Mum-Ra = Christopher Lloyd (Hahaha)
SNOOP DOG AS LION-O! by BigBlackDude	Jun 6th, 2007 03:30:31 AM
Only because he could really nail the part when he yells hoooooooe!
My casting choices: by W3bzpinn3r	Jun 6th, 2007 03:31:51 AM
Jaga The Wise - Michael Cain Lion-O (adult) - Brendan Fraiser Panthro - Michael Clarke Duncan Cheetara - Rebecca Romijin Wily Kit/Kat - Olsen twins Tigra - Chris Maloni Snarf - Andy Ricter Mumm-ra - Morgan Freeman Slithe - Philip Seymour Hoffman Jackalman - Robin Williams Monkian - Ben Stiller Vulturman - David Spade
Another dumb!@# by jhpiii	Jun 6th, 2007 03:34:44 AM
Another dumbass movie putting a hereo in teenager shoes..and even worst making it live action....I see now to have a script writing job in Hollywood you just need an IQ in single digits, and a soccer mom that has a taste for studio execs....
WILYKIT & WILYKAT... by BigBlackDude	Jun 6th, 2007 03:40:31 AM
...The Olsen twins. Wait, I think one was a boy... actually still perfect casting.
** MAJOR SPOILER ALERT ** CASTING LEAKED!!! by Carter5000	Jun 6th, 2007 03:42:06 AM

They'll remake any old shit from the eighties now... by Charlie & Tex	Jun 6th, 2007 03:48:34 AM
...this is probably the best example. They'll be doing a live-action version of The Mysterious Cities Of Gold next...
RE: RokurGepta by BigBlackDude	Jun 6th, 2007 03:50:42 AM
How about Inhumanoids. Could work.
THE ONLY WAY THIS WILL WORK... by BigBlackDude	Jun 6th, 2007 03:59:52 AM
...is if they find a great script, the right actors, a good director and awsome character designs... so I guess it's safe to say it will suck.
Wesley Snipes for Panthro, Doug Jones for Jackal Man... by Monkey_King	Jun 6th, 2007 04:00:10 AM

Fucking Furries... by godoffireinhell	Jun 6th, 2007 04:07:11 AM

Never liked it by PacmanFever	Jun 6th, 2007 04:12:35 AM
The few times I saw Thundercats as a kid it straight up bored me.
Cheetara...damn fine. by LordEnigma	Jun 6th, 2007 04:14:29 AM
Seriously, Cheetara and Lady Jaye, made my day as a kid. However, seriously, this may be the most bizarre movie ever made. I have no idea how in the fuck you pull off a fucking live-action THUNDERCATS movie. Seriously Hos. Seriously.
Cheetara by Franco Begbie	Jun 6th, 2007 04:16:35 AM
She's alright to look at, but think about it. Furry boobs. Yeeeuugh!

The Go-Bots theme was great by PacmanFever	Jun 6th, 2007 04:21:17 AM
It went like this: The Go-Bots; The Go-Bots The Go-Bots The Go-Bots! Incidently, it wasn't a rip-off of TF, the toy lines started at the same time, many believe Go-Bots toys actually appeared first, and the cartoon actually did. It was just a hell of a lot lamer.
Mumra by Colonel Activity	Jun 6th, 2007 04:22:32 AM
Larry King for Mumra.
If it's the origin story by watashi-wa	Jun 6th, 2007 04:26:14 AM
I just hope they forget that for about a quarter of the very first episode, the Thundercats were all nude. (Unless Jessica Biel is playing Cheetarah). Snarf! Snarf!

Thanks for the info, even more of a reason to make it into a live action movie. After that the public will demand a Go-Bots vs Transformers movie. Please God, make it happen!
This IS a joke right... Right?? by TrueRed	Jun 6th, 2007 04:31:45 AM
Transformers = Big fucking robots duking it out and blowing shit up and looking very very cool. Thundercats will look fucking ridiculous. Who the hell would they be able to persuade to camp about looking like a reject from an Andrew Lloyd Webber musical. Muck Fe.

I don't know what my posts meant to you, could you be a lil' more precise? As for Cheetarah's furry boobs, I experienced once some chick with hair on her areola. Disgusting. I'd never figure out why her pussy was shaved and she didn't took time to clean these 3 1/2 hair on her breasts. Strange.
Will.Never.Happen. by Midnightxpress	Jun 6th, 2007 04:42:14 AM
This is one of those projects that will never happen, like Godzilla 2 or that ST movie with a young CGI Shatner/Nimoy as Kirk/Spock that was rumoured to be in development. WHo is their right mind is gonna invest £100M+ in a movie about talking Cat people who fight a mummy? Thou personally Cheetra is the 2nd sexiest cartoon character ever. What's Natasta Henstridge up to these days?

Thizzle to the Hizzle to U.N.D.E.R cat shizzle! by Seph_J	Jun 6th, 2007 06:03:12 AM
Snoop Dogg for Lion O is inspired. Always thought Sam Jackson should beef up and be the blackest panthro motherfucker in the galaxy. "Thundercats are loose motherfuckers". Like to see Jolie as Cheetara, and the invisible tiger dude should be offered to Brad Pitt. Unlikely I know. WhileyKit should be played by fucking Dakota Fanning, cos shes getting lazy these days. JAGA should be Clint Eastwood, or an old CG James Stewart. Slithe man... that gotta be Philip Seymour Hoffman (gotta see past the fatness in future). Jackalman has to be Jim Carey, and Monkey-dude should be some mono-sylabic buffoon, such as Will Ferile, ahem sorry Ferrell. Which leaves one key cast member..... MUM-RA! The badass crazy flying fuckers gotta be mostly CG, but the decripid old git has gotta be played by Chow Yun Fat.... now hows that for an interesting casting idea. Not sure if it'd work though. Hope this new script has the EXODUS story in it, and isn't a coming of age thing for Lion O... how boring. It should be action action action. And its gotta include the space battle that the mutants and the thundercats have on their way to third earth, when Jaga croaks. And make sure Sam Jackson builds a faithful thundertank... don't go 'tumblerising' it, like Morgan Freeman did in Batman Begins. That guy took re-imagining too far. Thundercats lair has to be IDENTICAL to the TV series. AND KEEP BILL PAXTON AWAY FROM THIS. Thunderbirds was a missed opportunity. THUNDERCATS ARE ON THE MOVE, THUNDERCATS ARE LOOSE!!!!!!!!! FEEL THE MAGIC HEAR THE ROAR MOTHERFUCKERS!! Man, I love Thundercats. I hope Hollywood leaves it well alone.
SNARFFFFFFFFFFFF by pjoreilly_	Jun 6th, 2007 06:10:26 AM
danny de vito for this part please, in fact lets have arnie and de vito team up again, they could play the kid cats it will be awesome. Martin lawrence should definetely play lion-o and whoopi goldberg as panthero. whoop whoop
Leave it alone -make a game instead. by knifeandfork	Jun 6th, 2007 06:10:53 AM
As much as i love thundercats i dont think it should get a movie.Do you realy think warners studio execs will let a thundercats live action film be EXACTLY like the cartoon with no changes? Heck no sir. They'll have it watered down and changed thinking that "middle america wont understand a movie about catpeople" or some other dumb reason.Mark my words, theyll have a token pretty boy human character in there faster than you can say "studios know nothing". So please , let this one be . They should just make a thundercats game instead , it will cost less to produce and turn in more of a profit. Which is nice.
Yeh you're right.... by Seph_J	Jun 6th, 2007 06:15:23 AM
Thundecats crash on ThirdEarth, and find young orphan Shia LeBeef. This is our way of identifying with cat people... through Shia's gradual understanding of what it means to be a thundercat. Amazing. Fantastic..................... .............................. .........................not.

I didn't even like the cartoon as a kid. It sucked. It was a show about a neutered tribe of cat people led by a mentally retarded boy in a man's body who subconsciously released his latent sexual urges by playing with his inflatable sword.

Seriously, by Currencyboy	Jun 6th, 2007 07:11:35 AM
You all have no idea how relieved I am that other folk found Cheetara sexy when they were kids. It's like a dark cloud has been lifted from above my head. Whilst we're being honest, April from the TMNT did it for me too. And for whoever said Cities of Gold, good shout! Amazing theme tune I seem to remember.
Vin Diesel... by Mosquito March	Jun 6th, 2007 07:14:17 AM
...should play Panthro. I'll go with Biel for Cheetara. Paul Walker would be a serviceable Lion-o. And they could cast Neal McDonough as Tygra. It doesn't really matter if any of the actors can act, because they're a bunch of fucking talking cat people. Looks are everything.
$50 bucks says... by Giftoflight	Jun 6th, 2007 07:17:12 AM
...that they set this on modern earth. The Thundercats will also be genetically altered humans. Search your feelings of fuckstick hollywood, you know it to be true.
You knew it was only a matter of time by MRJONZ72	Jun 6th, 2007 07:28:36 AM
Maybe Im wrong, but I thought strong rumors of this was floating around a lil while ago that a deal was going to be made..Me personally would like to see Robotech/ Marcross...Make a 3 picture arch ala LOTR and later on give me the Invid Invasion. Yes I know the original Japaneese version of the I.I is not part of the Macross Universe.
Voltron by MRJONZ72	Jun 6th, 2007 07:30:43 AM
Wasnt that annouced like a year ago, with Pharrel of the Neptunes / N.E.R.D as one of the Ex. Producers..Not for sure how that will turn out, think changes need to be made or it can come out a little cheezy, at the very least I say make it more like it's Japaneese counterpart which was more violent.
Currencyboy by MRJONZ72	Jun 6th, 2007 07:33:03 AM
I'm right there with you, lol.. I also found Cheeta (the Justice League Unlimited version) sexy as well. Remember the ep Injustice For All when they capture Batman and the scene where he attempts to get her to turn.... Damn did I just admit to that?
Nipples on Cheetara? by Ironmuskrat	Jun 6th, 2007 07:33:55 AM
That other opening sure did explain way too much.. Who would have thought the basic plot of Thundercats would be so complicated and hard to follow. No wonder they dropped it in favor of the hyper active opening we all know and love.

There already was an episode where he came of age by PotSmokinAlien	Jun 6th, 2007 07:38:14 AM
is was 5 parts, one whole week of awesomeness, although they never played them in order by the time i was watching it. and it was about how lion-o had to beat all the other thundercats at what they were best at to truly become their leader. and it ruled. whoever dropped the bomb that this was a children's cartoon with sexual imagery that is very easy to extrapolate, congratulations, i hope the published expose is around the corner. for the record i would also like to express the opinion that this movie will probably suck.
Gen X by Surround Sound	Jun 6th, 2007 07:47:12 AM
Gen X has loads of money to spend and we also happen to cherish our 80s memories as a kid. Hollywood caught on to this and now seeks to reel us in. I say make a movie out of every damn Saturday morning cartoon that ever existed. I want my 80s back!

I could never remember the name of that series...remember seeing it as a kid once or twice at my neighbors house who had Nickelodeon....(i think it was on that channel) but yeah.....JAYCE!!! Who remembers those those toys of the giant insects and the commercials were like little episodes?????
barf by tonamania	Jun 6th, 2007 08:17:07 AM
always wondered why the leader was named after the son on the Jeffersons. This was one of those trailblazing toons way back when they first had an army of psychologists approving the script (along with He-Man). shouldn't this post have more haters? Jenna Jameson as Cheetarah. Get the guy who voiced JarJar for snarf.

Thx Shermdawg for that link by VAWitch	Jun 6th, 2007 08:17:20 AM
http://youtube.com/watch?v=a_4 Ju6ZqKPU seriously tho - if that is what can be done w/ NO budget or real FX, a TC movie may not suck - but it'll definately depend on the script. And TC can work, esp for an "older" (pre-teen up) audience - the "sequel" comics released by...image(?) about 2 yrs ago did well, and nicely matured the franchise. And Voltron's been in active pre-pro for over a year (animated). I think TC would do better as a CGI, a la TMNT or Gatchaman/Battle of the Planets. Some cartoons just can't be translated well to the "physical" world.

Something I could live with... by Shermdawg	Jun 6th, 2007 08:38:46 AM
if they kept the storyline close to the cartoon, but explained rhe origin of the names as some sort of Planet of the Apes deal. Maybe a intergalactic Noahs Ark, and over time they evolved. I wouldn't even be opposed to the Cats being pets/servants of some intergalactic type warlord and they escape, and the names were basically given to them. Jaga sets them free and they go off looking for the eye of Thundara. Hell, Jaga doesn't even need to be a cat. Slythe and co. are bounty hunters for said warlord, and the whole crash happens, and they run into Mum-Ra, shit happens, soon and so forth. Just as long as it's not set in modern day, I'll gladly accept any tinkering of the plotline.
Andy Serkis should be in it by performingmonkey	Jun 6th, 2007 08:39:01 AM
Laurence Fishburne as Panthro or another role. Hell, this will be considerably less crap than the Matrix sequels so he should be glad to be in it. Christian Bale as Tygra or something. Whatever, this should be made for Cheetara alone. Get the hottest girl it's possible to find, fuck the acting.

Why the hell does it matter if it has a "built in by Frijole	Jun 6th, 2007 08:47:20 AM
audience/fanbase" already??? Movies that didn't have "built in audiences" when they were released: Alien, Star Wars, Raiders, Terminator, Matrix and on and on... In fact, I think it may be BETTER to take a lesser-known property for something like this. It gives the filmmakers more leeway with the characters and story to do something new without a million sweaty fan-boys screaming "TINO! TINO!". Oh yeah, and what's with you nitwits who blast Hollywood for not having any original ideas out of one side of your mouths and then scream bloody murder out the other side when original ideas are incorporated into pre-existing properties?

I always hated the Thundercats. That stupid Snarf and those two kids always irritated me to death. Also even as a kid I was totally irritated by "Third Earth." WTF was that supposed to mean? I was also confused as to why they were fighting the same bad guy every single week and why, if they were from the same planet, they all seemed to be different species. yes I was a nerd.

Make it a racial statement about the Mutants (whites) coming to third-earth (africa) and trying to enslave the thudercats (blacks). Call it the Thunder-coons. Lopsided red afro on Lion-O, Spielberg can direct it, and focus on what happens after the thundercats kill the crew of the Mutant spaceship and are taken to stand trial on mutant-land. Djimon Honsou: "Give us us Sword of Omens!!!"...... Anthony Hopkins as Jaga. Sam Jackson as Panthro. Morgan Freeman as Dr Dometone. Keenan and Kel as kit and kat (see what I did there... aliteration) and Halle Berry as Cheetara. OJ Simpson as Tygra. Philip Seymour as Slythe, Chris Rock and Chris Tucker as Monkey-fucker and Jackal-man (these boys have been americanised you see). Thunder Cats Lair = Thunder-coons crib. Thundertank = Thunder-ride. Mumm-ra is undecided as yet.

I watched as a kid felt the need to have at least one corny, cute character. Thundercats had Snarf, Mask had the R2-D2 rip-off, Super Friends had Gleek. I remember as a fourth grader rolling my eyes whenever the lame-ass comic relief character came in to ruin the action. (At least G.I. Joe kept that shit real, yo.)

Vin Diesel, terrible actor, terrble interview. by Shermdawg	Jun 6th, 2007 10:14:18 AM
You ever see him on the Tonight Show? It's always the same. Jay coaxes him into telling a story from his youth and the whole time he'll be looking at the audience with a gigantic grin as if theirs one hell of a punchline coming up, and everytime Jay asks him a question he'd turn and stare at him with that big ass grin for like a minute or so, he'd do this several times during the interview, and you could see Jay always tries to rush him along, but he can never take the hint, and the audience is clearly getting restless, and when he finally reaches the "punchline" he bombs, and he's the only one that's laughing. Then Leno immediately throws it to the clip. The same thing happens evertime. Tis awkward.
I can't see it by BizarroJerry	Jun 6th, 2007 10:18:24 AM
I can't see a way for them for these characters to appear on screen without looking ridiculous. Multi-colored cat-looking people? Has anyone jazzed about putting out these remakes ever considered making an animated movie? I mean, we got a pretty good superhero movie in The Incredibles. What's funny is, even though the main reason audience of this film should be nostalgic grown-up kids of the 80s, they'll still give us some new vision. Has anyone seen Latino Review's story on the G.I. Joe script?
Sigh by RussianRocket	Jun 6th, 2007 10:21:12 AM

THUNDERSCATS MOVIE HOORAY!!! by Archangel Michael	Jun 6th, 2007 10:27:38 AM
First they finally put the series out on DVD and now this!! This is wonderful news and I have always wondered if it would ever be done. One of my all-time favorite cartoons to watch when I get home back in the day. Now I hope they do not screw it up like they did with Masters of the Universe and X-Men movies!!!
Do we really need this? by Jak0lantern01	Jun 6th, 2007 10:30:02 AM
I mean, it wasn't even really a good cartoon, kinda lame if you ask me. The more I think about it, my outrage is simply over the fact that they really feel the need to do this. I'm totally starting to understand the Transformers naysayers here........
"They" by krushjudgement	Jun 6th, 2007 10:31:36 AM
When it is said 'they've run out of ideas", who exactly are we talking about. The "suits" they've never had ideas in the first place. Except how to make money. There are original idea out there. It's just a harder sell.
By the way..... by Jak0lantern01	Jun 6th, 2007 10:31:58 AM
Lion-O was a real pussy on that show. Don't think about that statement too long, please.
Right! They screwed those up by DieHard Transformers fan	Jun 6th, 2007 10:36:34 AM
Masters of the Universe was a univeral bomb. They sure screwed up X-Men but people seem to love the crap. I mean once they took away Wolverine's costume they ruined the movies. Why do they think superheroes have costumes in the first place? Those black costumes were chump costumes. Fuck that, remake X-men. And put a tough guy as Wolverine. After you see Hugh Jackman in an interview you can't buy him as a tough guy anymore, he's too nice a guy.

Oh and make real metal claws come out, not some fake looking CGI claws!
So the plan is to make 80s cartoons into movies by Dapper Swindler	Jun 6th, 2007 10:40:41 AM
That way you get kids, who already love cartoons, and adults who remember them from when they were kids. This is how the suits think. 10 years from now, we'll be seeing movies based off 90s cartoons like... I dunno, Bobby's World?
Thundercats talk like zombies by DieHard Transformers fan	Jun 6th, 2007 10:41:03 AM
I hope they don't make them talk like they did in the cartoon. They talk like they're zombies. I just saw the clip and it'd be funny to seem them still talk like that.
Um, dude, Jackman could't fill out the spandex. by Shermdawg	Jun 6th, 2007 10:44:20 AM
If you wanted a picture perfect Wolvie, you'd have to cast a wrestler. Also, Wolvie always looked better without the mask. It's the hair that makes tha haracter, not the claws. And what bugged me is Jackman's do looked awesome up until midway through the first film, then after that, when they tried to style it up and make it more like the comic, it became ridiculous looking. Honestly, the X-suits weren't all that bad. I do wish Cyclops had rocked the full skull cap suit, but the outfits were the least of the films problems.
Remember that cat from the Pole Position cartoon? by Calico Pete	Jun 6th, 2007 10:45:17 AM
Keemadachi or something? Well the entire Thundercats movie should be presented as his dream while taking a cat nap. That'll give them the excuse to work in Pole Position, and thus compete with Speed Racer. Which, never mind, I guess WB is also making.
It's because they've run out of Marvel comics to make by DieHard Transformers fan	Jun 6th, 2007 10:45:44 AM
Marvel comic movies made money like crazy even if they screwed them up. Next thing is to make the best 80's cartoons. They seem to be doing a much better job on Transformers. Next, Voltron and Thundercats get my vote.
I second Katherine heigle as Cheetara!!! by Aznbuddy	Jun 6th, 2007 10:46:31 AM
Yes!!! This is what I was talking about in the He-Man TB! YES!!! And maybe all of the Thundercats could be female instead! Lion-Oh! Teatgra! Pant-ho! AWESOME!!! And Mum-ra could hit them with like a Catnip spell ...and they would be like "Meoooooowwwww....I feel randy...." Oh yeah...Hollywood...you nailed this movie all right.
"It's because they've run out of Marvel comics to make" by Shermdawg	Jun 6th, 2007 10:47:58 AM

He was a cat person too, just short and fat. He was the Danny Devito of cat people. He just ran around on all fours sometimes.

more casting ideas by liquidExist	Jun 6th, 2007 11:24:30 AM
-Cheetara: Jessica Beil or Rebecca Romijn Stamos...i'm leaning more towards Rebecca... -Panthro: Leonard Roberts (D.L. from Heroes) would be kickass as Panthro, maybe too young though -Lion-O: Paul Walker(i know...i hate to say it...)but he would be able to pull off Lion-O, they need someone who can pull off young and unproven leader -Jaga: Sean Connery??? someone older who can pull off the Ben Kenobi mentor role as a ghostly vision...i could see it...

I watched the fan film (thanks shermdawg) and I just kind of, I don't know man, I just don't know. I was a fan of the show as a kid (before I grew up and realized how TC,Silverhawks and Voltron were anime) and I want this to work with out having to be cgi or animated but cat people? I bet money some movie studio executive is saying "but do they have to be cats? I mean it can be a metaphor,they can have cat like skills but not actually be cats.We can't market cat's " We might be in for trouble folks. I've read the script review for GI Joe online at latino review and it sucks ass. We have to have a faithful adaption of these materials or nothing at all. THINK SIN CITY.

MASK by llac12	Jun 6th, 2007 12:03:46 PM
I don´t understand why they havent made a MASK movie yet. It´s probably the only 80`s cartoon that would make sense on the big screen. It should have been considered even before Transformers (which will suck because it focuses on the humans instead of the Cybertronians). MASK focused on actual humans from present day Earth and had shit that transformed. I could never see Thundercats more than a blatant rip off of Masters of the Universe- which was only cool in the little comic books that came with the action figures in the beginning- then came the stupid, very badly drawn, gay ass cartoon having He-Man transform into a prince and fucking Orco spinning around like a turd in a toilet. They made a reboot which I heard was actually decent- never sat down to see it- why not make a movie of that? Someone said that the cast for Thundercats should be all black...well who knows... they´ll definitely all have to be super gay to dress up as cats.

HEY SHERMDAWG DO YOUR REMEMBER THIS POST IN HANNIBAL TB by Deus Vult	Jun 6th, 2007 12:38:14 PM
ORIGINALLY POSTED BY SHERMDOG, SUBJECT: I'm late to the party. Here's my T-cat casting anyways. by Shermdawg Jan 14th, 2007 02:46:57 AM Jaga - John Glover Lion-O - Ben Stiller Ok, yes, The Rock would look cool as Lion-O, but thats waaay too easy, and tired if ya ask me. I thought, even as a kid, that Lion-O was a total cornball. Ya need someone who could play that. Stiller even freaking looks like him in the face, but they'd have to do some LOTR Gandolf camera tricks, because Ben's a bit short. Casting Stiller would be the best WTF casting that payed off in a fanboy flick since Keaton in Batman. Panthro - Laurence Fishburne Cheetara - Uma Thurman (Purrr-fect casting) Tigra- Not sure, but regardless of the casting, he has to be Cheetara's lover. Snarf - Jack Blacks face on a cgi body. Hell, rework the character just a tad, to make him less annoying. Wilykit & Wilykat - Don't give a shit. Pumyra & Bengali - I'm not gonna bother casting, because for some damn reason, none of the new episodes past "the movie" were thrown into rotation in my market. The show still ran, but it was just repeats. Lynxo - Terry O'Quinn (based on looks only) Mumm-Ra - Gilbert Gottfried / WWE Superstar The Boogeyman Slyyythe - Oliver Platt (DEAD FUCKING RINGER!!!) Jackalman - Willem Dafoe Monkian - Ron Perlman Vultureman - John Malkavich See boys we all casted this movie like six months ago! FOR SHAME!

First we have the origin story, the Thundercats leaving their planet before it blows up, arriving on Third Earth, and pissing off Mumm-Ra. The Darker Second Act has Lion-O's five task initiation, but in a switcheroo from the cartoon, he gets all but defeated by Mumm-Ra. The third act involves many peripheral characters, like Hachi-Man and the mechanical pirate dudes, then descends into chaos when the Ewo-- I mean, Berbils are introduced. Eventually Lion-O finds the horn... of the unicorn... and peace is restored to Third Earth. The horn is, of course, sexually symbolic, the idea being that if we all just made love and not war, Third Earth would be a happier place. (SPOILERS) "

Could be all kinds of bad, could be all kinds of good. by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 12:46:35 PM
It's not just a rip off of He-Man, it also has elements of Star Wars (Lion-O, Jaga, Sword of Omens), Superman (last of their race crashing on an alien planet) and Flash Gordon and other serials. There is a lot of room to improve upon the original concept, there is also a lot of room to suck the life right out of it and make it less like mythology and more like say, a Michael Bay movie.

And now for something completely different... by Deus Vult	Jun 6th, 2007 12:52:19 PM
Subtext by Dick Nicely Jan 14th, 2007 01:01:50 AM " My take on the Cat's Tale, to coin a phrase, is that Mumm-ra and his cronies were just pottering about Third Earth, minding their own business and building scary towers. Then these half-human half-feline creatures land on their planet and start making trouble. Oh, the cartoon tells us who's good and who's evil, but Mumm-ra was provoked and merely defending his territory. Therefore the subtext will be about how this propaganda paints the "perfect race" invading force as heroes and the ugly natives as villains, making it somewhat relevant to world events. Also, there will be unicorns."

Origin Story? by Fount of Useless Info	Jun 6th, 2007 12:55:55 PM
The Thundercats already have an origin story, it's called Exodus (It's the name of the episode, I'm not saying that the Thunderecats were lead out of Egypt by Moses.) I can remember thinking it was weird that they had a guy that looked like Obi Wan Kenobi die and then talk to the other Thundercats in ghost form. I guess sight beyond sight helped them see other properties with good ideas.

I've sat in meetings like that, and being the cynic (realist) that i am, used to look at the faces of the execs. most were all hyper excited b/c the VP was all tickled pink with his idea, but there'd always be one or two people whos nostrils would just inflate as the deep breaths were inhaled. needless to say my tenure at these places didnt last too long.
should be cgi animated feature, by Judge Dredds Dirty Undies	Jun 6th, 2007 01:01:58 PM
Cant help but think it will be hard to pull off in live action. Thundercats is one of the few cartoons that hold up for me. It was fantastically imaginative and funny even if it was unintentional sometimes. The animation was also far superior to most other stuff and it had fantastic music too!

Why? by Lando Griffin	Jun 6th, 2007 01:31:11 PM

They will be re-imagined as lycanthropes with ninja skills. When they're in CAT form, they'll look a lot more "cat-like" with muzzles, cat noses, and feline/human hybrid shape. When human, they'll look like your favorite celebrities. The movie will be about as exciting as Mortal Kombat.

When I was really young I remember going into a video shop and seeing Escape from NewYork on video. Somehow I convinced myself that it was a live action version of Thundercats. Kurt Russel just looked kind of like Lion-O to me for some reason. My dad had to tel me I was wrong. Anyway that is not a 'lost' opening, i remember seeing it loads of times as a kid, I think it might have been on the pilot or the straight to video feature length episode they released, Thundercats-Ho I think it was called. Mathew Fox would make a good Lion-O. He could spend the whole film dening Mum-ra even exsits.

Biel as Cheetara. by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 04:45:07 PM
I remember seeing STEALTH and Biel looked like she could wipe the floor with her costars. She'd probably be good in any action role.
Thundarr would be a lot of fun. It's basically Planet by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 04:46:13 PM
of the Apes but with sorcery. They also have to make sure Thundarr remains a sexist blowhard, I love that cartoon.
CGI? by WONKABAR	Jun 6th, 2007 04:47:02 PM
Brad Pitt will robbed of the part of a lifetime! DeSandman, like I said on The Zone, Silverhawks is to Thundercats what 'cars'-Voltron was to 'lions'-Voltron, second-rate cool. Sorry cars-V/SH-fans. Hey Rocur...what about 'History of the World Part II?' talk about long-awaited.
Sample lines from Thundarr: by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 04:47:44 PM
"What? That is woman's work!" and "Ariel, you are as lovely as you are stupid. Ha ha."
Actually, Brad Pitt would make a good Thundarr. by WONKABAR	Jun 6th, 2007 04:54:41 PM
with Angelina Jole as Ariel. it would be like Mr. & Mrs. Smith but like, after an asteroid hurtles between the Earth and the moon.
Thundarr reminds me a lot of Killraven. by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 05:04:01 PM
I'd take either. Heck, I'd take John Carter or Flash Gordon or Doc Savage, too. We need more pulp!
I made up that lovely but stupid line. by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 05:05:36 PM
But Thundarr is the kind of guy that thinks women's lib is for mutants. If you watch the cartoon on Boomerang he makes little remarks and likes to toss Ariel over his shoulder and teach a wench a lesson. Kind of like Conan.
superninja by pjdon	Jun 6th, 2007 05:07:54 PM
in Doc Savage Man Of Bronze he lightly puches a girl in the cheek and says "your a brick". I think it is supposed to be a compliment but it never works when I try it.
Flash movie needs Gorilla Grodd. by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 05:09:06 PM

Thundarr hates two things: by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 05:13:32 PM

Cheetarah on the pilot by punto	Jun 6th, 2007 05:28:14 PM
I remember watching the first episode as a kid with a raging boner the whole time, and I didn't know why. I just thought "something is 'different' about cheetarah". Later I realized she was naked on the pilot, before they get the cheesy 'official' thundercats outfits.. awesome
Cheetara is agile. by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 05:39:57 PM
I always thought it was cool how physical she was when I was a kid. Most of the female characters on the other shows weren't as physical as she was and kind of stood around or fired weapons.
Thundarr no need help from big mouth female! by WONKABAR	Jun 6th, 2007 05:42:38 PM

Would Pitt be believed giving Angie orders? Also, Ariel is not the kind of girl who would have sex and then stab you like Angie.
What is wrong with the concept of Thundercats? by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 05:53:01 PM
Since it is recycling familiar elements, do you have problems with those concepts as well?
Do you think she gets it on w/ the Mok too? by WONKABAR	Jun 6th, 2007 05:53:31 PM
Ukla did sound pretty riled up there. You're right though, she should be wearing fuzzy boots like Thundarr's. And why does the bad-guy sound like Fred Flintstone?
What where those robotic by pjdon	Jun 6th, 2007 05:54:00 PM
bears called in Thundercats? They kind of creeped me out. I had a toy of one and I was always convinced it moved while i was asleep. Plus has anyone thought how awesome the Thundertank will look in live action?
She doesn't get it on with anyone. by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 05:54:52 PM
You must be thinking of Conan who gets it on with anything not nailed down.

At least Lion-O is flawed so they don't have to by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 06:04:23 PM
go creating flaws so we can relate to him.
Bring on the M.A.S.K. movie already!!! by Man_of_Stool	Jun 6th, 2007 06:05:16 PM
Now THAT would be cool. FUCK HOSTEL
Who made the Bearbils? by pjdon	Jun 6th, 2007 06:09:53 PM
I always thought Thundercats had a kind of deep hidden mythology. Why was Third Earth called Third Earth. Where did mum-Ra come from. It kind of reminds me of LOST the way they land on a planet and we just get glimpses of an aincent past. I honestly think a film could be something special.Plus because there is no real hardcore fan base people won't bitch about Snarfs eyes being the wrong color and shit. I just hope they put flames on the Thundertank. Because thats what a badass like Panthro would do.
How is Lion-O flawed? by WONKABAR	Jun 6th, 2007 06:10:44 PM
...seems like a perfectly capable cartoon-hero to me
You know Hollywood will miss the mark by Phategod2	Jun 6th, 2007 06:12:03 PM
Yeah Lion-O was flawed being a child forced to become a man, Instead they'll make Lion-o Shai labouf's Cat altered after a Sexual experiment (because thats more realistic)
Lion-O was a kid in a man-cats body? by Phategod2	Jun 6th, 2007 06:13:57 PM
I think he was actually younger then Wiley Kit and Wiley kat
Remo was based on the "Destroyer"book-series by WONKABAR	Jun 6th, 2007 06:16:59 PM
so yeah, there was potential there...maybe still. Lion-O's biggest flaw was that he was too hair-metal
Infact most of the characters by pjdon	Jun 6th, 2007 06:17:55 PM
where more complex and flawed than your average charcters in a kids show. Just looking at Wikipedia and some people who made Thundercats went on to form Studio Ghibli!

pjdon, you are going to get Yack on his post-apoc by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 06:27:13 PM
soapbox. Third Earth is our Earth where all civilzation has been destroyed and the planet has recovered but civilzation remains in an arrested state. So we made the Bearbils (AI style) at some point in the past. Mumm-Ra (evading grave robbers?) rewoke from his slumber. He was entombed in ancient Egypt. King Arthur has been shown as being a member of Earth's past, or maybe was leftovers from The Last Unicorn, who knows? They never really explain any of it.
Panthro = Micheal Clarke Duncan! by jojo-pimp	Jun 6th, 2007 06:30:56 PM
If not Panthro, then perhaps Mumra!! Vin Diesle would also be an acceptable Panthro
superninja I always remember as by pjdon	Jun 6th, 2007 06:35:54 PM
a kid thinking that it mite actually be in our past, that there was civilization, then the Thundercats came and then millions of years later we came along. I even remember me and a friend being convinced it was kind of a true story and was based on actuall historical findings.
Lion-O is depicted as being flawed, mostly due by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 06:38:39 PM
due to his youth. It's often used as a device to show a moral of some kind. He has been portrayed as arrogant, bullying, naive, rude, foolish, a number of things. He is still however good natured and honorable and desires to do the right thing in the end. Cheetarah is portrayed as having a serious problem with greed at one point. Tigra had one, too, I can't remember what it is, though.
FUCK YEAH, BITCHES!!! I knew this day would come!!! by Lamerz	Jun 6th, 2007 06:41:10 PM
Thundercats, HOOOOOOOOO! Let's hope they hope they stick close to the source material. If not, this will suck and be Thundercats in name only. FUCK THAT. TINO, bitches, TINO! These fuckers better not rape my childhood. The original Thundercats mythology was deep and near perfection. Mumm-ra better not be turned into a Russian terrorist because they are afraid of offending Egyptians. And the sons-of-bitches better fuckin keep the sex of the characters the same. Panthro is not a fucking CHICK!!! THUNDERCATS > HE-MAN ... Fuck Skeletor and that bitch Prince Adam. Skeletor was just mad cuz his dick disintegrated and he couldn't get a blow. That's whole reason for the conflict in the series.
Get Djimon Honsou as Panthro. by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 06:42:31 PM
Although he was born to be Black Panther. Duncan is too old and not athletic enough.
Thundercats have chosen HD-DVD..., and here's why: by Pound Sand	Jun 6th, 2007 06:43:24 PM
Cheetara is ready for her close-up.
I remember some storyline about by pjdon	Jun 6th, 2007 06:43:41 PM
them mining some kind of substance, I think it was like Gold, they could mold it into shapes but it was tough, I think I remember it causing issues within the group. And then Snarf said 'snarf, snarf' and they all laughed for several minutes.
Cheetara better be fuckin hot too by Lamerz	Jun 6th, 2007 06:45:38 PM

I was watching the Thundercats movie and ... by Lamerz	Jun 6th, 2007 06:48:01 PM
Lion-o used the "sight beyond sight" to check out Cheetara while she was showering. I was kind of shocked that they would do that in a film based on a cartoon, but I looked over and Kurt Russell was laughing, so I guess it was okay.
That's right Drath ... THUNDERCATS > ALL by Lamerz	Jun 6th, 2007 06:49:22 PM
that is all.
Cheetara was prbably by pjdon	Jun 6th, 2007 06:50:55 PM
my first sexual feeling. Or maybe Wilykit.
Thundranium. That is what powered all of their by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 06:58:34 PM
technology. The other thing that they should keep in is the Mutants basically picking off as many survivors during the Thundarian Exodus as they could. Good way of establishing the hatred between the two groups.
Just got a glimpse of Cheetara by WickedMonster	Jun 6th, 2007 07:02:22 PM
...on the pilot episode. Wow, she is nude. How could they pull that off? And Lion-O is a girl... Weird.
I'm glad they're adapting hollow 80s toy commercials by ScamsAndFlams	Jun 6th, 2007 07:03:41 PM
as much as i loved these shows as a kid, i'm SO fucking glad they're adapting them into live action films rather than ruining truly classic material like The Book of the New Sun. keep remaking shallow shit into shallow shit, Hollywood, educated people everywhere thank you for leaving the true classics alone.
They're not nude, they're covered in fur. by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 07:07:07 PM
At least, that's what I'm going with.

and for anyone rushing to commence a witcch hunt and start calling people hater I don't hope any movie fails I just point out the current hollywood trend of flash over subtance. And with these new 80's era movie Transformers is the bar I just hope a movie is able to step over that rather Low bar.
Yeah, improve upon the concept while keeping by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 07:19:00 PM
the elements of the original in mind in a way that is not insulting to the audience. That is all people are asking.
Dwane "The Rock" Johnson by BenIdom	Jun 6th, 2007 07:26:29 PM
Would make a badass Lion-O. I mean, he is already ripped and just change the words "Can you smell what the Rock is cooking" to the Thundercats chant. It is the same tone of voice and everything!
The Olsens just need a haircut and they are good by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 07:29:01 PM

Some of those show had interesting stories actually. by WONKABAR	Jun 6th, 2007 07:31:28 PM
I remember wondering about the time-line of Thundercats as well as some here have mentioned. But then again I tried to figure out the story-lines to music-videos when I was kid too (How 'bout a 'Union of the Snake' movie eh?) But like someone else said, there ARE alot of great books out there. I certainly think John Carter is more due than Lion-O
I watched some episodes of by justin s	Jun 6th, 2007 07:32:36 PM
I watched some episodes of thundercats recently with my roommate, who has the dvds. I have to say, after about 5 hours of thundercats, we determined that not a single person threw or took a punch. not one. they had fights sometimes, and people would get tied up or jump out of the way of things... but no one took a punch.
ok so a transformers movie, a gi joe movie... by LarryTheCableGuy	Jun 6th, 2007 07:33:09 PM
a thundercats movie and a he-man movie, since theres no news of a live action duck tales movie this sums up my favorite afterschool shows back then, i ask the gods, please, out of these 4 shows at least make one of the movies mirror how the show was, and not in a campy style, without adding your own touches and upgrades. g.i. joe and thundercats especially.
Does anyone remember by pjdon	Jun 6th, 2007 07:35:09 PM
how cool the spaship crashing on Third Earth was? It skidded for miles. That re-done in live action would be great.
GI Joe should be a t.v. series. by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 07:35:25 PM
There is not enough there for a movie. On the other hand, that could make it easier to adapt, less to screw up - just make an espionage/special forces movie. But if you've read the script review - it's laughable, so it's not looking too good.
Yes, pjdon. I always thought the Enterprise crash by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 07:37:53 PM
in the Trek film was pretty cool. The animation in Thundercats was extremely well done, especially for the pilot movie.

i gotta read that review. i'd dig a live ation gijoe series. thought the cgi wasn't half bad. but i can just picture a really badass movie if done right. i heard something about rise of cobra. there's some potential cause there's so many characters, and ninjas. cobra almost has that darth vader thing, with destro and baraness and serpentor. they can pull some good stories from the episodes i'm sure. maybe dusty can be a p.o.w and they have to rescue him, the possibilties are endless.
Superninja should be a TV series by pjdon	Jun 6th, 2007 07:48:37 PM

Also each week a new guest star could come into the show and the police believe he is Superninja and the guest star could team up with Superninja to fight evil and then find out her identity but then die at the end so they can get a new guest star next week.

Snarfer - Verne Troyer Monkian - McKenzie Crook Mumm-ra - Michael Jackson (although George Burns would have been perfect for the "decomposing" Mumm-ra, if he hadn't died) Slithe - Kathy Bates (ideally) Vultureman - Brian Cox (Why not? He's in every other film. If he can't do it, Jon Voight will.) Wilykat - Ralph Macchio

I VOTE FOR "TURBO TEEN: THE MOVIE" by Bass Bastardson	Jun 6th, 2007 09:22:39 PM
If you don't know Turbo Teen, it was an 80's cartoon about a kid who gets fused with his sports car when he crashes it into a secret science lab. Whenever he gets too hot he morphs into his car and if he gets wet he turns back into a kid. Seriously. His friends drive him to school. Check it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =Rc 3T-Be6JEc&NR=1
anchorite by zelusfin	Jun 6th, 2007 09:23:53 PM
well,come to think of it. white or black, they're still gonna paint him blue. or use prosthetics or i some kinda fur make up. really, with this movie, it's the new age of make up.. or not. But as for stan lee going to disney, i have so much respect for the man i'd considering watching anything he's behind. and if the movies are good, why not? i mean, frank miller never really had a huge mainstream audience (although what a comparison, couldnt be further apart), and who around the world really read that much hell boy? and frankly new movies come out every year that have totally original stories and characters and some become very succesful. pirates of the caribbean was based on a freaking ride!! if the movie is made well, i don't see why it shouldn't be seen despite the lack of a previous following in another format. glad you brought it up though, didn't know he went to disney. really? he did?
Thundercats Suck!! by Eh Nam1313	Jun 6th, 2007 09:26:23 PM
what was Lion-o sword for other than calling for help when his wimpy ass was getting it kicked. Oh yea he also had (sight beyond sight) just gay! Bring on the MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE BABY!!
we HAD Masters of the Universe, Eh Nam1313 by leavittj1982	Jun 6th, 2007 09:40:36 PM

Fucking awful idea... by J.B.M.A.	Jun 6th, 2007 09:46:48 PM
...because bar the hilarious title music, Thundercats was shit. And yes, I did watch it as a kid and knew it was shit then too. Oh, and to the morons comparing it to Lord of the Rings - are you kidding me?!! There is more weight in my ballsack than in the flimsy half-arsed storyline of this 1980's reject.

That being said I still think this is a stupid fucking idea
Agreed Superninja, the Thundercats TV movie was great by NoHubris	Jun 6th, 2007 10:08:33 PM
If the live action can match the 80's TV movie in its portrayal of Lion-O ascending as both a leader and a hero, it'll connect with its 80s audience AND bring in alot of new fans imo.
Stan Lee by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 10:24:33 PM
I'd love him to do great work for Disney but his more recent efforts are very lackluster. To be fair, kind of hard to top the old stuff, you know?
Silverhawks by jegoing74	Jun 6th, 2007 10:26:56 PM
Now don't get me wrong I loved Thundercats as a kid, but Silverhawks has the big screen potential.
NoHubris, should be hard to screw up, right? by superninja	Jun 6th, 2007 10:28:14 PM
All they need to do is adapt the story and get someone who writes good dialogue (that's where the real difficulty is with these movies). If they pull the designs off, should not be brain surgery, you know?
The new He-Man is gonna be cool by DieHard Transformers fan	Jun 6th, 2007 10:45:17 PM
They're gonna make him like Conan, none of that crap from the first time around. I still think He-Man's an aggorant twat for saying "I become He-Man, the most powerful man in the UNIVERSE!!". Fuck you He-Man and shutup before Superman comes and kicks your ass.

If you were in any way disturbed by the costumed people in line on "Star Wars" opening days, then get ready to have your mind blown by the "Thundercats" crew. And I would rather not even contemplate the eventual porno version of this film.
DieHard Transformers fan, Burtons Planet of the Apes by AllPowerfulWizardOfOz	Jun 6th, 2007 10:51:00 PM
love or hate that movie the make up worked very well and I think they can pull off with making catpeople look cool.
WHAT'S WITH LIONO'S PAW-GAUNTLET THING? by Bass Bastardson	Jun 6th, 2007 10:56:50 PM
He has a gauntlet made out of a huge cat's paw. Isn't that a little gross, considering he's part cat himself? That's like me wearing the hand of some other (much larger) human dude as a glove. Yuck.

Hard R Thundercats synopsis - first 15 minutes by Lamerz	Jun 6th, 2007 11:38:28 PM
Movie opens with Lion-O, bloody with several cuts and bruises, taking on 12 baddies, as one goes to stab him in the back, he jabs his sword back through the gut. Then promptly slices off another's head. He knocks another baddie out by kicking him in the face, cuts the arm off of another, and then finally cuts off another baddies legs off at the knees. They all pause, Lion-O says, "Who wants some more?" The other evil ones run off. "That's right, run, fuckers! HOOOOOOO!" Lion-O begins walking back toward his base. Cut to later that day, he arrives, and cleans up. There is a buzz on Lion-O's door, he opens it, and Cheetara awaits. They proceed to kiss intensely, disrobe (with female full frontal nudity) and cut to a full on sex scene ending with Cheetara satisfied.
I wonder if Lion-O will still have that fro goin on by Coughlins Laws	Jun 6th, 2007 11:42:40 PM
He looks like a cross between Don King and Ronald McDonald. I don't see how they can re-create it without it looking REALLY cheesy. I just don't see how they can do this movie with the serious tone of the cartoon with live action people. They'll look soooo ridiculous trying to deliver straight lines looking like they do. Maybe if they just go all out campy with it, it'll work. Or maybe they'll surprise me. They should just make it all CGI.
robertsilence by WickedMonster	Jun 6th, 2007 11:43:08 PM
"sometimes i walk around the neighborhood yelling..."THUNDERCATS HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" sadly, nobody jumps out of the bushes to form my gang of ninja cats." Comedy Gold I am sure Shia LeBouf would have been there ready to molest the cats you would have summoned.
Make it hard XXX by Coughlins Laws	Jun 6th, 2007 11:47:57 PM
Open with Cheetarah (played by Jessica Biel) getting gang raped by some stray panthers and Panthro and Lion-O (played by Long Dong Silver and Peter North) show up to break things up. Lion-O then holds aloft his magic Meat-Sword and says "I have the Power!!!!!!!!"

Thundercats Talkback at a Transformers level by SlickyVonBoner	Jun 6th, 2007 11:49:31 PM
Wow. The 80's are back. Rocky, Rambo, Die Hard, Indiana Jones, Transformers and now Thundercats? I don't think this will translate well to the big screen. They would need a great script and director to make it even feasible. The greatest old cartoon that NEEDS to me moviefied is Starblazers! That, my friends, would rock.
So I just watched Clerks 2... by Lour Reed luvs Frank Zappa	Jun 6th, 2007 11:59:44 PM

Plazola_MEX by Bass Bastardson	Jun 7th, 2007 12:25:22 AM
I agree with you, but please don't say anything more about Macross. It's been a life-long dream to do Robotech/Macross as a film and I am very afraid that Don Murphy or some other schmuck will come along and fuck it up before I get the chance. The more you talk about it the more likely that is to happen. Just give me five more years to try and get it off the ground. If I still haven't managed to do so, then bring it up in all the talkbacks you want. I know it seems like a shitty deal, but I'm begging you. Please.
Leave it to YackBacker to make me laugh by HeWhoCannotBeNamed	Jun 7th, 2007 12:27:40 AM
Glad you're back. Thundercats is my wife's fav. I'm more of Silverhawks guy myself. Love those opening credit scenes. 80's goodness.
Bass, you have my support. by HeWhoCannotBeNamed	Jun 7th, 2007 12:32:53 AM
I prefer Macross over Robotech, but whatever. Anyone, and I mean anyone (and this is in no way a slight on you) is superlative to Don Murphy. Go Bass Bastardson, Go! Shit, now I have the Macross theme song in my head. Memories abound.
Get Gerald Butler or Eric Bana as Lion O! by R.C. the "Wise"	Jun 7th, 2007 12:34:24 AM
Jessica Biel as Cheetarah,
Yack, thanks for the Thundercats outtakes by HeWhoCannotBeNamed	Jun 7th, 2007 12:35:02 AM

Word is that a Legend of Zelda script is being passed.. by R.C. the "Wise"	Jun 7th, 2007 12:36:04 AM

Now see, I just don't think a Zelda movie needs to be by HeWhoCannotBeNamed	Jun 7th, 2007 12:38:59 AM
made. Perhaps I lack vision.
Gerard Butler would be awesome as Tigra. by superninja	Jun 7th, 2007 12:40:21 AM
You have to remember that Lion-O is much younger than the rest of them.
You can make a movie about anything. by superninja	Jun 7th, 2007 12:43:22 AM
Zelda has a lot of classic myth elements and just deals with pastoral vs. city and peasants and monsters, there's nothing special about it. It's basically a blank slate for them to do anything, just with name recognition. The temptation I think would be to be oddly faithful to the games when it is unnecessary. Mario Bros., now that I don't understand making into a movie. Plumbers and a turtle king. Video games? Sure.
Legend of Zelda? by Coughlins Laws	Jun 7th, 2007 12:46:10 AM
Well, I guess it could be like a one man LOTR type situation. It's just that Link doesn't converse with that many people. Will he traverse through multiple dungeons looking for triforce? Does Orlando Bloom wanna star or will he get typecast as an elf?
But..Heath Ledger as Lion-O :( by avenger147	Jun 7th, 2007 12:48:18 AM
Well at least theres no horrible wire work with CGI :)
HOOOOOOO! by WONKABAR	Jun 7th, 2007 01:07:01 AM
Sorry, had to. Yeah, it sure seems the 80's are indeed back. Now all we need is zombie-Reagan. Oh, diehard guy, tough call there between HeMan & SuperMan. HM has the power of greyscull, whereas sups loses power when not near a yellow sun. Eternia's sun is like, pink or something, so I guess it depends on where they fight. But HM has bigger muscles.
Would be the best thing to happen to Bloom since by superninja	Jun 7th, 2007 01:08:33 AM
POTC. And before that LOTR. He better ride that gravy train. :) Link talks to tons of people, have you ever played the game? When N64 game came out I was obsessed with Link getting the horse and the music used in that location. It must be in this movie! Hahah.

He-Man and Superman did meet up in a comic by superninja	Jun 7th, 2007 01:10:51 AM
book, but of course they team up never settling the question of who is stronger. It's He-Man. Superman is vulnerable to magic on top of needing the yellow sun.
Well, sups does have a better alter-ego... by WONKABAR	Jun 7th, 2007 01:18:13 AM
I didn't know they teamed up. I knew Spidey and the Transformers teamed up, but how the hell did HM and SM hook up? They didn't get it on did they?
It was a DC comic or something. I'm sure they by superninja	Jun 7th, 2007 01:21:01 AM
beat up each other's bad guys, you know how that thing goes. Based on what I gleaned from the internet, He-Man was talking in "Thous" and "Thees" so it was probably written out of character anyway.
I'm assuming SM went to Eternia... by WONKABAR	Jun 7th, 2007 01:27:52 AM
unless HM went through some portal like in the Lungren film. I can imagine how their conversation must have went... SM: "I put on these glasses and everybody thinks I'm Kent" HM: "Shit, all I do is wear pink muthafucka!"
Correct me if im wrong but isn't He-man mortal? by Cotton McKnight	Jun 7th, 2007 02:09:53 AM
I mean, while he's all waving around his sword, couldn't a bad guy just pull an Indy and shoot him? Superman, on the other hand, is vulnerable to only ONE thing- kryptonite.
and besides, Superman can.. just for starters.. by Cotton McKnight	Jun 7th, 2007 02:13:52 AM
use heat vision, run fast, freeze things with his breath, has x ray vision and super hearing (though im not sure how he would use that in a fight) and he can FLY. All He-man can do is basically break stuff. Having said that, I think Hulk v. He-man is a better comparison. I think Hulk wins that one too.
God why did I check this sight at 2 am... by Cotton McKnight	Jun 7th, 2007 02:17:36 AM
Alright now y'all got me thinking. How about Man at Arms vs. Boba Fett? I want to make a movie where Man at Arms and Trapjaw get somehow get teleported to this galactic contest where they have to fight Jango and Boba. Winner takes on Batman and Robin, who just kicked Inspector Gadget and Penny's ass.

HeWhoCannotBeNamed by Bass Bastardson	Jun 7th, 2007 02:35:05 AM
Thanks for your support. Now if we can just get everyone to promote more shitty cartoons in these TBs, maybe the suits at the studios will be distracted from ruining the good properties. That way people who are actually passionate about them can work on getting them made correctly. That's why I am trying to get people hyped for a Turbo Teen movie. If Don Murphy or Lorenzo Di Bonaventura can spend a couple years trying to hammer out a Turbo Teen flick, that is time they won't be spending ruining Macross or Yamato or Harlock. ;) You know what? I just convinced myself - I am now in full support of this Thundercats movie.

hey bib fortuna, glad somebody else mentioned that. would love to see that too. but seriously people, i dont understand the haters.. what have the thundercats done to you guys huh? maybe its cat phobia.. or thunder phobia.. a little bit of both? cmon! the tc's kicked ass! and if you hated it so much do yourself a favor and forget about it. stop givin the fans grief. its not our fault we want to see stuff that made us happy in the 80's.

Dungeons & Dragons by J.B.M.A.	Jun 7th, 2007 06:18:10 AM
was the most obvious draw out of all these 80's 'toons and yet somehow they managed to turn a sure-fire cash cow into a sub-Xena style telemovie. I mean c'mon, it had teens with different special powers trapped in a magical fantasy world wear ANYTHING can happen! Dragons! Goblins! Wizards! The Harry Potter crowd would've eaten it up. HOW did they manage to fuck that one up? Instead we get tat like Eragon. You would have to kill off the annoying bloody Unicorn though...

live action please by stvnhthr	Jun 7th, 2007 07:19:33 AM
When this idea first started floating around about 6 months ago there was talk of doing it all cgi like the recent TMNT flick. I want like action! The practical effects and makeup appliances would be pretty cheap and effective today. I really like the "lost" intro, they could really play up the spiritual analogies of good vs. bad; unholy forces indeed.

I could see Gem, Snorks, or Turbo Teen for the live action treatment but not Thundercats. And why has G.I Joe dodged this treatment for so long or did I miss something? It would be like Saving Private Ryan but no one dies. I mean the He-Man movie was great...right? Voltron could be cool, but we really want to see M.A.S.K.
I actually considered doing BREAKOUT as a movie.... by Dasher	Jun 7th, 2007 08:34:47 AM
But as a short film, not feature-length. Basically it would be a guy who wakes up in a racquetball court that's filled with the colored blocks. He has to fight his way out with a racquet and ball.

Link hardly talks to anyone, it would be like watching by Coughlins Laws	Jun 7th, 2007 09:42:29 AM
Castaway. In the first game he only talks to the old woman he buys potions from and that old dick who is everywhere. In the later games he does stop in towns but outside of one or two important people, he doesn't really talk to anyone about anything important. They're gonna have to have him talking to all sorts of people to make it interesting because it's not like they can give him a side kick during his fights or anything. He'll have to be alone most of the time. And to whoever said the Final Fantasy series is better than The Legend of Zelda series, well, I'm speechless. I guess it's a matter of taste but I believe you're in a VERY small minority on that one...

Steve Carrell can be Brainy. Scarjo can be Smurfette. And Patrick Stewart can be Papa Smurf. We need this! You can make Gargamel the sympathetic character, where someone finds his diary of his long torture at the hands of his neighbors the Smurfs, finally ending in his mysterious disappearance. It can be like Blair Witch but with Smurfs!
to review... by Deus Vult	Jun 7th, 2007 12:40:18 PM
shermdawg and anchorite were both part of the original thundercats casting thread WAY back in january. although they weren't around for long. the original subject was the "hannibal rising" talkback. finally, superninja, I think the lead character in every final fantasy game is actually alot like link--young, girlish, and quiet. that could strife kid in FF7 never said a damn word to any body. and I played that game in excess of 255 hours--and not a single sentence out of his mouth!

Superman is vulnerable to magic, it can kill him. by superninja	Jun 7th, 2007 12:49:44 PM

RE: FF, I wasn't comparing the main characters. by superninja	Jun 7th, 2007 01:44:33 PM
FF involves convoluted stories, which I think would make it difficult to adapt for film. I know when you get involved in playing the game the more dense the better but not so for movies.
