And I also noticed they apparently were fans of the Siege of Gondor sequence in the Peter Jackson "Return of the King" film. ;) Quote:
But it was so smashing I am very willing to overlook minor imperfections. You don't give away a Mercedes because it has a scratch on it.

Kinda wish they hadn't used CG for the mechs though... they did the same thing with the mechs in the Samurai 7 anime.
The only time I ever really liked it when they mixed CG elements with regular animation was when they used CG for the Valkyries in Macross Zero.

I thought the mechs looked somewhat similar to the Mutants' spaceship in the original episode of Thundercats, like it was a Transformer and that was its robot mode.

It was awesome. Everything you could ask for as an update and still be kid friendly.

i only got to watch the last 15 minutes of it, and just in them last 15 mins i seen how they fucked up the story. thundara blew up, jaga dies from aging on his way to the new closest planet to start the thundercats over after the thundercats are sent there in them capsule that make em age. mum-ra was on this new planet, he was not on thundara..
other than that, the animation, the similarities in comparison on the looks of the original were fantastic. i actually was liking what i was watching in the last 15 minutes of the show. other than the change of the story line, it was great. if they had not changed the story a bit, it would of been perfect. overall i think they did a pretty damn good job... |

Pretty cool series. Can't wait for the next episode.
The mechs were like a wtf moment. Thought I was watching Avatar for a minute. But solid story and great animation.

Lol, speaking of LOTR references, I got a serious Gandalf vibe from Jaga, especially the last part when he told them to run. Great start to the series!

Yeah it has it's pluses and minuses
Pluses 1.Good animation. 2.The fact the orig voice actor of Lion-O comes out as the King, but I do not remember from the 85 version if their was a true king. 3.Snarf was more of a pet and not being a whiny wet nurse. 4.Very good story plot on 1st episode. 5.The battle scenes were epic. 6.Bringing all the main characters together in different roles rather than in one shot 7.Loved how they brought Slythe out for battle he has not changed 8.Sword of Omens was bigger than original. Sad here the minuses 1.Panthro killed off-really liked his character 2.Wilykat and Kit are mere pick pockets and not part of the team 3.Tygra is Lion-Os arrogant older brother? 4.Grune the Destroyer was mentioned too early 5.Where the rest of the villians I recall besides Reptilians they also had it in w/ Jackal and Ape mutants? Where were they? 6.Mumm-Ra on Thundera was cool, but not the same if he would ve been on 3rd Earth-also that he dies from SUNLIGHT??!! He's a mummy not a Vampire. 7.Killing off King set the new war, but they kill off the King and Jaga, Jaga shouldv'e stayed on for awhile until next episode. 8.Also Thundera look too much like something out of Robin Hood, in the original they lived in a land of higher being technology. |
