By having more complex stories in modern cartoons, it also causes us to judge the capability of modern villains, and characters, more harshly. |

I wonder if the VAs even get an input on what their character says. Like, don't they go and read and say, "You know what, my character wasn't like this the last time, can we change something?" |

Let's be honest, cheetara is not lion-o's guardian or protector. Episodes 14 and 15 prove that. |

Agree. I could not tolerate someone like tygra. We would be throwing down. |

I think the name fits it well. "Recipe For Disaster " but in the wrong kinda way.
This has got to be one of the dumbest show(s) ive ever seen from the TCS. It had nothing to do with the "main' story The writing is all wrong. The fighting was stupid as hell. They took the kiddy approached in this one and i think in some way. thats kinda blah. Unless your under 6yrs you would love that kinda fight, but 6 and up, would much rather enjoy a good fight. The big face thing was also kiddy stuff. No sign of wily kit & wily kat, as if the cats dont care about them, they are miles away from them, I wonder how they will meet up again. Anyhow, i give this show 1 or 2 out of 5 stars. |

It's kinda sad, but if Pumrya does break Lion-O's heart or die, I can see Tygra popping out and doing the Nelson Muntz "Ha ha!" It just sounds like Tygra has backslid and then some for the last few episodes. I mean, it would have been compleatly different if he had sounded worried.
I know how how Pumrya could get revenge for Lion-O snickering about her face. He gets put in the TOS Lion-O outfit. She comments about the abs window. I know that everyone's been wondering about Bengalli, but I wonder if we'll ever see Vultureman. |

One of the biggest bits of damage he's done thus far is when he killed Claudis while disguised as Panthro. |
I think that Vultureman and the rest for the ThunderCats will pop up early in season 2. That season should be packed! Hachiman, Snowman and Ma-Mutt, Berserkers and Lunataks, etc.
Season 1 was awesome, and my complaints are extremely minimal, but the biggest one is that the writers are trying to pack too much story into 22 minutes. The original kept everyone engaged because it was simple. Whatever was going down was introduced in the first few minutes, then the rest of the show was the Cats kicking mutant and Mumm-Ra ass. It was sweet and worked. |
I liked this episode. Unlike the one before it, the story to this one was one I enjoyed. With the assumption that they'll never use that tonic again, I would call this one another filler episode, and a pretty good one at that. One small detail I really liked was the guy's name, Ponzi.
Definitely looking forward to this week's episode, "The Soul Sever". Should be interesting to see where they take the show in this season's last three episodes. Even though they made this season with the idea that a second would be on the way, I really hope they didn't end it on a cliffhanger... |
I watched the episode again in HD and the art was phenomenal. A lot of people didn't like the whole Mothra thing but one of the things that was cool about the OS was all the strange creatures they encountered. I'll admit Lucy's face was a bit too kiddy, but I liked her and I especially liked Ponzi.
The part where the cats are trying to reach him and Lion-o is waving his sword and Ponzi goes "oh man, he looks mad!" was great. IMHO if there is a season 2 I would like the series to have a lot more of these "stand alone" episodes. I want every episode to be a new adventure, not another tiresome "search for the stones" episode. I'm fine with 2 and 3 parters, but it feels like the whole stone thing has dragged on long enough. |
the Pumyra face is priceless lol
im so glad she has a bigger role in this series...i hope it stays that way! |
All foibles aside...

The entire plot concerning the stones has been largely ignored since at least episode 16. If it feels like it’s been dragged on, it’s because they have barely even touched that part of the plot. |
The setup for the stones in Thundercats could have been done the same way as Slayers Season 2. It had the group looking for the Clarie Bible. Filler episodes were setup as leads that could take them to the Clarie Bible but would lead to a dead end or some new added bit of info about the Clarie Bible.
I find the Book of Omens as being wasted for coming into play so early in the series. The group could have moved around for a bit going by rumors and info in finding two stones. Then they find the Book of Omens to lead them to the other stones and reveal the real truth. At least if the series followed it this way, most of the early episodes could have been spent building up the group. |

Plus in order to make up for the missing part of the Book of Omens which tells Lion-O about the stones, Jaga and Cheetara could have been lore in chief by dropping directions on which way to go in the journey.

In some ways I think that the did too good a job setting Mumm-Ra up as being this all powerful threat. A lot of the best plans in TOS that Mumm-Ra did involved him bieng a little more subtle. Using his shapeshifting to infiltrate Cat's Lair, or casting spells that messed with the Cat's from a distance, not direct confrontation. |
Now this series is starting to seem messed up. The Book of Omens was this once important artifact. Now it serves as nothing more than a laser pointer and compass. With all this crazy stuff happening for the past couple of episodes, why hasn't Mumm-ra or his flunkies actually raid the Thundertank to steal the book. Even Mumm-ra has been I don't need the book anymore.
|
Why doesn't mummra attack the TCats with his gerernals and his SoP. The Cats wouldn't stand a chance. Mummra would have the War stone, Spirit Stone, and the BoO.
I think the next stone is in episode 25 and 26. They need to leave a cliff hanger too. Have one of the TCats betray the group and take the stone. |

The Soul Sever looks really cool and right down my alley. I prefer darker and bloodier but in a cartoon environment this is as good as I can hope for. Whatever tomorrow's ep brings will be something I haven't thought about because I honestly have no idea except that I don't think it will have a TBC vibe at the end :) I can't wait till tomorrow but dammit... I'll be working. |
So I know it is still morning but it would seem this could be the second week in a row WB does not send out any preview clips or still images for the next episode.
