I watched the new Thundercats cartoon...

And it was AAAAAAWWWWSOME!!!!!!!

Yah I've seen bits and clips here and there, and even a dude posted a link to a web site that posted the whoooole thing before it aired....

But I was all "NO!"

"I will NOT give in to temptation and I will watch it like it was MEANT to be watched!"

Now what I thought about the show

I like the quasi-furry/anthro look of the series, and over all the designs looked amazing, it REALLY did a good job of adding a modern anime feel as well. The style kind of reminds me of a Mix of Avatar: the Last Airbender, and Solabarobo art I've seen

At first like most fans I was skeptical of Lion-O's design, but it really made sense considering the story they were working with (I was really never to fond of the whole Lion-O was a kid but aged because of his damaged pod crap anyway) he basically looks sleeker, then the original and I mean lets face it the "personality" of the original rarely went beyond "I'm a good guy so I'll act good" but when the new guy first went "Thunder cats HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!" he sounded like he really deserved the role of the lord of the Thundercats!

I'm still torn about Tygra though he reminds me so much of Tygra from the Gold Digger comics in personality, and the whole "better brother, douche bag/hero" storyline doesn't't impress me to much, also he seemed way underdeveloped...

But it WAS the first episode after all so I'll let it slide for now.

Now the one design that...well was far better than expected...was... well she was the one that was responsible for more young cartoon fans becoming furry...

Was...

Siiiiiiigh

Cheetarah! Her new design is such a perfect example of hoe you can make characters look sexy while putting them on MORE CLOTHES!

And when Larry Kenny was doing the voice of Lion-o's father...

I was so tempted to just let out a fan-girl-esqu squeeeel while hearing his awesome voice!

My only complaint we Wily-kit and Wily-Kat, the look was adorable and I applaud them for actually using children to do there voices (I was never fond on there voices in the original I actually found them annoying) the only problem is, that children don't make the best voice actor, you'll see them have well animated emotions and movements, and facial expressions to what sounds kinda like kids just reading there lines.

But the BEST thing of all in the show?

SNARF DOSEN'T TALK! And he's all cute in that quasi pokemon ,Avatar anime wannabe look and you'll find yourself and going "OMFG Snarf's ADORABLE!!!!!"

...

And then you'll feel weird and uncomfortable for THOSE words going through your brain!

Now As far as the story I never really liked the whole "OMGF we're sent from one planet to another because... mummy...well superman did it sound it MUST be a cool story device right part of the original, and they went for a far more basic "OMFG badguys killed my father, and now I have to rebuild my Kingdome, and become the next king" witch is actually presented better than I make it sound. But let's face facts it isn't all to original.

The show looks, sounds, and aside from a little cheese here and there pretty BADDASS!

It's nice to cartoon where heroes kick ass rather than complain about how there dad doesn't understand them and stuff like that.

The best thing all around?

THEEEY DOOON"T DOO THAAAT EEEEXTENDED HEEERO TALK THEY DID IN THE OOOORIGINAL SHOOW!
