Disagreeing with the hero journey, I'll refer to this like I did before: a heroic journey. It is a team effort. Lion-O won't make it without the others, because he has to grow into the adult he'll become and he was never meant to do it alone.
I think that when the writers fleshed out the new series Tygra they wanted him to be a protagonist and not just a companion to the hero, which is why he has so many fans as opposed to the OS Tygra (I was so lonely back then...!) They also made sure he and Lion-O would clash yet make it through somehow. In the end, and just to steal from a favorite show, it's the typical Starsky and Hutch, Tango and Cash, Turner & Hooch combination. They don't exactly match, but they work well together. |

They do not get along like that. Tango liked cash to where he was fine that his sister dated him. I always thought that they should've made a tango and cash 2. I do hope that tygra has a tribe out there where he is a prince or lord (Native Son). |
If they will not do the triangle from Lion-O/Cheetara side upnext, they will finish the scene with Tygra kissing Cheetara. It' obvious, even if we are not seeing the previous episodes patterns.
If they will do with T/C running then it will be like this http://www.thundercats.ws/thundercat.../24/#post24736 will conflict with Jelenic comments on not dragging and proper due, because that scenario will really drag it on and on, like the link I gave. If they will make cheetara cannot choosing either brothers after she really knows Lion-O feelings and hurting him (of course we must get Lion-O/Cheetara lip kissing if this is the case in Ep14:D) that will still fit with Jelenic comment, because the old triangle form of season 1 "freezes" for awhile, if they are going to continue it later, it will be already a new evolved triangle with Lion-O/Cheetara/Tygra already growing as a character. Or of course the another direct 180:D |

Looking at those pics, I know why.:D I think tygra has grown in 13, he is finally feeling remorse to lion-o and he was ready to move on with cheetara. Hey, I wonder if cheetara changed Annet's prediction. |

But if this betrayal bit area going bigger, then Cheetara maybe only postpone the inevitable. Like If the tiger clan are indeed betraying the lion clan form the past. |

But that would be a good point. Tygra was going to betray lion-o and there was nothing cheetara could do. That could be another lost cause. I would like for tygra to go bad for a while. Doesn't mean I don't like him. That would be great if he had mummra's sword with a stone fighting lion-o. |

What I'd really like to see are the circumstances of Lion-O's birth. Jaga's "For it was written that he would be born of fire" at the beginning of episode 1 nags me. |

It is not to take away from the TC. This show is about lion-o. We are kind of seeing it through his eyes. I think cheetara has helped him a lot. Yes, he would be lost without the others. But it will come down to lion-o fulfilling is destiny. You do know that was exactly the point, right? They don't exactly match, but they work well together. Also the couple's choices come from quoting Castle :) I don't think they are at that connection yet. Especially after this set back. Methinks you just want an excuse to show Tygra out of the team and this would do it LOL But it would be an easy way out of the sibling rivalry for the crown -where I do believe the true reason is entirely different but will wait and see if I'm right or wrong- so... nope. No I actually want tygra to have his own destiny that is outside of lion-o. Only way tygra gets over lion-o having the crown is if he has his own. What I'd really like to see are the circumstances of Lion-O's birth. Jaga's "For it was written that he would be born of fire" at the beginning of episode 1 nags me.[/QUOTE I do too. There is more to tygra being adopted than that has been said. |

Do you think we will see mummra's sword at some point?

You guys keep quoting the "classic hero's journey" and in the classic hero's journey he doesn't actually get the girl. Usually "the girl" is a temptress who tempts the hero to abandon or stray from his quest. The hero in old classic stories usually end the story alone.
"The seeker of the life beyond life must press beyond (the woman), surpass the temptations of her call, and soar to the immaculate ether beyond." Monomyth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |

Yes he does how did it become a cliché. Because everyone uses it. If you had it your way lion-o would be a martyr and tygra would be king with cheetara as queen. Lion-o never got Atonement with the Father or he is not going to meet a goddess. Cheetara is not a Temptress. Woman is a metaphor for the physical or material temptations of life |
Another solution will be of course if she keep doing 180 every next episode, that will fit with the highest good thing. By keep doing 180 she will not hurt eitehr brother's feelings too :D, Since the triangle is already dumb anyway, hampered by a flower out of nowhere.

The hero getting the girl is a cliche because of movies, not because of classic myths and literature. |

Furthermore so far they have kept to those steps in the show. Of course he hasn't done ALL of them. The show just started. The article also says stories don't always have all 17.
The Call to Adventure: "The hero starts off in a mundane situation of normality from which some information is received that acts as a call to head off into the unknown." Episode 1. Lion-O starts off in Thundera during his every day life. Refusal of the Call: "Often when the call is given, the future hero first refuses to heed it. This may be from a sense of duty or obligation, fear, insecurity, a sense of inadequacy, or any of a range of reasons that work to hold the person in his or her current circumstances." Episode 1 again. Lion-O see's Mumm-Ra in the sword, but refuses to admit it. Supernatural Aid: Once the hero has committed to the quest, consciously or unconsciously, his or her guide and magical helper appears, or becomes known. More often than not, this supernatural mentor will present the hero with one or more talismans or artifacts that will aid them later in their quest." Episode 2 Lion-O is forced to flee and Jaga gives him the sword and gauntlet. The Crossing of the First Threshold: "This is the point where the person actually crosses into the field of adventure, leaving the known limits of his or her world and venturing into an unknown and dangerous realm where the rules and limits are not known." Episode 3. after the funeral when they left Thundera. Belly of The Whale: "The belly of the whale represents the final separation from the hero's known world and self. By entering this stage, the person shows willingness to undergo a metamorphosis." Episode 3 again. (kinda funny how it's called belly of the whale and the episode was based off Moby Dick eh?) The Road of Trials: "The road of trials is a series of tests, tasks, or ordeals that the person must undergo to begin the transformation. Often the person fails one or more of these tests, which often occur in threes." Each episode is kinda a test. The Meeting With the Goddess: "This is the point when the person experiences a love that has the power and significance of the all-powerful, all encompassing, unconditional love that a fortunate infant may experience with his or her mother. This is a very important step in the process and is often represented by the person finding the other person that he or she loves most completely." This could be interpreted as Cheetara. Woman as Temptress: "In this step, the hero faces those temptations that may lead him or her to abandon or stray from his or her quest, which does not necessarily have to be represented by a woman. Woman is a metaphor for the physical or material temptations of life, since the hero-knight was often tempted by lust from his spiritual journey." This could also be interpreted as Cheetara. Atonement with the Father: "In this step the person must confront and be initiated by whatever holds the ultimate power in his or her life. In many myths and stories this is the father, or a father figure who has life and death power. This is the center point of the journey. All the previous steps have been moving in to this place, all that follow will move out from it. Although this step is most frequently symbolized by an encounter with a male entity, it does not have to be a male; just someone or thing with incredible power." Encounter with a male entity. Most likely a future fight with Mumm-Ra. Apotheosis: "When someone dies a physical death, or dies to the self to live in spirit, he or she moves beyond the pairs of opposites to a state of divine knowledge, love, compassion and bliss. A more mundane way of looking at this step is that it is a period of rest, peace and fulfillment before the hero begins the return." This could be where the comment Dan made about Death not being permanent comes into play. The Ultimate Boon: "The ultimate boon is the achievement of the goal of the quest. It is what the person went on the journey to get. All the previous steps serve to prepare and purify the person for this step, since in many myths the boon is something transcendent like the elixir of life itself, or a plant that supplies immortality, or the holy grail." Getting the stones and bringing the animals together. The rest of the steps talking about Returning which would be obvious. Lion-O coming back to rebuild Thundera. I think they're following these steps pretty accurately so far. I don't think I'm "reaching." |
