Thundercats canceled?

[Dr Kain]

Yeah, I don't have cable anymore either. I either stream things on Netflix, Hulu, or just download them from the bay and if they are good enough (and complete, meaning has an ending), I will buy it when it comes out to Blu-Ray.

And your right. When people can go online and download the series in HD, why would they downgrade to DVD quality? This is where Blu Ray would have been the answer.

You're right!

They need something different that fans couldn't get from just downloading from anime sites.

That says no SDCC exclusive toys. It doesn't say they won't have any TCats toys at all.

Just means they won't have any figures like that SDCC Lion-O that had the crappy paint job last year.

Or an 8" Cheetara ...

[BB Shockwave]

If it's DVD sales that matter, then I have done my part to save the series - also buying the three 6-inch toys released so far (still waiting for Tygra...)

Thanks.

At least they listen to their fans and share information with their fans. TCrew doesn't say anything, if they do it is a tease to keep people watching the show.

How is that even relevant, considering Jelenic never was involved with JLU EVER? Brave and the Bold does not take place in the same continuity as JLU or prior DCAU shows - DCAU ended with JLU (sadly...)

Or it's simply your compulsion that you have to say something bad about Jelenic in every second post of yours? I noticed...

[Kregermeister]

I guess if there is NO presence at all at SDCC it pretty much confirms the worst, at least unless it does gangbusters over seas.

[AlexofThundera]

As per a member on HeMan.org who has a retail license, it appears Bandai pulled back shipments of Wave 2 meant for US distributors in order to create supply for the international market. I am hoping that doesn't mean Bandai is just shipping that stuff and not creating more as that would just create the same problem over seas that we had here; not enough inventory.

I'm pretty sure that's exactly what they're doing. Mark Vasquez at Fantastic Plastic Toys had all his cases of Tygra and Slithe cancelled.
Bandai and CN truly belong together. Both are clueless.

Lets see, JL came out before BM brave and bold and WW 09. I think there is a common theme in MJ's shows of BM brave and bold and WW, Steve Trevor and WW. JL had a established ship of BM/WW (popular), but he has to do it his own way. Just like TCats.

You notice cause you like to go around and tell on people, how many people did you get banned? I think 3 right. I bet you wouldn't act like that in person.

[cmangund]

In BM brave and the bold MJ made WW "gaga" over Trevor without any "good" reason and made bats "jealous" with it. BM/WW is popular like I said in many-many previous posts. BB and Timm's DCAU are different universes but using "same" characters. MJ likes to make the "popular" ships "sinking".

A couple of those people were the same person. And if they didn't do anything wrong they wouldn't have been banned no matter who had told. They got themselves banned.

Steve Trevor has been the primary love interest for Wonder Woman for decades. Since the 40s in fact. If you want to complain about people pairing up couples that weren't in previous iterations start with your precious BM/WW pairing.

Steve Trevor also hasn't even been a afterthought as a romantic intrest for Wonder Woman since the 80's. she's had other off and on romances with forgetable characters, but Batman has been the highest note romance for her in a LONG time.

I'm just saying he's not just some random guy they put her with to make Batman Jealous. She's had a long history with ST.

multiple histories actually, and not a one of them ended very well... hense why I wence when I see him show up... same as Gwen Stacy, characters with very bad luck they are

[cmangund]

Ah the same old same old WW/ST and WW/BM "arguments "again.
Same like BM/WW and BM/CW and WW/SM "arguments"
I have seen it all.

MJ likes to "kill" "famous" ships, in TCATS Tygra also not some random guy
MJ put in, T/C also had the blasted comics thing, but it's not "famous", while L/C is "famous".

[Chique]

Lets be honest, while the show and various writers have teased BM/WW, that ship is not as famous as Batman/Catwoman or even Batman/Talia.

If we're going to talk about pissed off fans, we're you into DC comics when Blackest Night Wonder Woman # 2 hit the stands? Most of the reaction to that book was negative. Hell fans in a forum I used to frequent were sending Nicola Scott ripped up defaced pictures of this

[cmangund]

Because BM/CW and BM/Talia were there long before BM/WW made it into Timm's cartoons that made it famous (especially since nowdays more people watching Timm's cartoons rather than reading comics, DC did reboots one proof of the comic industry dying beaten by manga and japan comic stuff in sales drastically). Timm also already did BM/Talia and BM/CW, BM/Andrea, BM/Zattana, etc.
I also liked the BM/CW ship but Timm and Co. made me a BM/WW fan and the fact that the late Mcduffie said it himself about BM/WW's future in Timm's DCAU and "proper" reasoning (similair to what Grant Morrison said in the video)with it (not like MJ's thing)I am fully onboard the BM/WW ship . Though DC already did BM/WW in the 80s too and the old comic did well with the fans and sales wise.


Matt Wagner's Trinity (reprinted with hard covers ranked 25 "Greatest Batman Graphic Novels" by IGN), JLA: The obsidian Age by Joe Kelly(reprinted with special edition thing with Kelly's interviews and sketches),Superman/Batman Generations by John Byrne,
,


Gods Of Gotham"by Phil Jimenez and George Pérez, Wonder Woman: The Hiketeia by Greg Rucka (Comics Worth Reading considered it to be "one of the best Wonder Woman story"),etc
these five and other series with BM/WW did well with many fans liking it. The blackest night thing mainly because the story was not "properly" done. It's like "out of the blue" in a way like MJ's T/C (though MJ's T/C was done even worse IMO)if you didn't pay any attention to BM/WW's previous interactions scattered around in different comics. On another thing, BM/CW fans not "happy" with what DC did to the BM/CW ship not so long ago, they were "pissed off" by it. How well they did the story will also help determine how the performance of the book will be no matter what ships in it and In the end how famous it is all depends on how you see it, in comics world, in TV world, etc. Since these kind of things will keep on changing. But the fact remains many "high profile" writers like the BM/WW ship and it's been around for many years too(Another proof of many BM/WW fans, without them DC will not continue doing BM/WW from time to time in the comics and they will not allow it in Timm's DCAU JL, since partly again TV audience numbers also much greater than the ones reading comics). In the comics all BM ships are practically going "nowhere" they will keep on having stories with it, with Timm and co. that's a different story, they the ones really "locking" the finale of all BM ships, the Amazon Princess as Mcduffie put it. And Timm said many fans asked for BM/WW too as he said it himself "Fans went nuts with BM/WW" since it's inline with his plans, he added even more BM/WW in the cartoon. Also the group of fans reading the comics and watching the cartoons were mostly different groups entirely. The ones watching the cartoon mostly did not know what's happening in the comics. Chique, You said you always wanted to keep it on topic.(EVIL grin) Now you are doing more off topic thing with your post on 06-22-2012, 10:30 PM .(EVIL grin)

And this getting a little off the TCATS topic, You said you always wanted to keep it on topic. Now you are doing more off topic thing.

I thought all threads went off topic after awhile. Or maybe its just the ones I'm in.

Off topic for awhile is fine, but if this continues it will be like the old SM/WW and BM/WW "wars" again but with no Timm this time.

Well, CN actually has Ninjago on instead of ThunderCats. No reruns for us so they can keep any interest going. They probably couldn't wait to get that show off the air.

Young Justice and Green Lantern still aired.

I grew up with BM/CW, but it could never happen.

I really don't follow DC, I was always a Marvel fan (Wolverine and X-men).

I like BM the most and I really like WW with him.

It is funny, because I think WW is the actual main character. BM is the supporting character.

Are you for real? I begin to suspect you are just some very advanced spambot... Steve Trevor has been the love interest of Wonder Woman since HER EXISTENCE. In comic, in the Wonder Woman TV series, everywhere. Even I know that, and I have hardly read maybe 3 WW comics.

And, oh wait, by your logic, if a shipping is popular, DC should now retcon 60 years of comic books (well, they kinda did anyway...) and ship WW with Batman? (Btw, NO-ONE abbreviates Batman as BM. No-One. Cause he's the friggin BATMAN.)

It's like, because Blackarachnia was Silverbolt's love interest in BW and BM, she can only love him in all future series... 'except, no-one, not even the biggest BW fans minded that she was now Elita-One and the ex-love of Optimus Prime in Animated...

Lion-O / Cheetara is such a 'famous' ship, that in the cartoon, they never even kissed each other, or professed their love for each other, or anything. Has to be a reason even the Wildstorm comic married Cheetara with Tygra and not Lion-O...

But why talk about this stupid argument endlessly. I am more interested in seeing more thundercats in the show. Like, Lynxana the Huntress... does anyone even remember her? Her motivations (not getting to lead her clan due to being female) and resentment of her brother do remind me of Tygra's feelings towards Lion-O.

Because at the end of the day it's all business. No business wants to come out and admit one of their products failed. They'd rather quietly sweep it under the rug hoping you'll eventually forget about it....

I'm sure we'll get word one way or the other at some point. How long we have to wait is anyone's guess.

It reminds me of MOTU 200x, everything seems to be going great, things start to stagnate a little, new stuff stops showing up, then the waiting begins...

I could pull up the thread where you were whiney like a little boy. Someone put a link so you could go to the owner of the board and you whine that you would. No one said your a mod.

Sorry I don't spam.

When you critize someone is not hate.

Cmangund just provided you proof that the BM/WW is popular unlike WW/ST. It took off in JL (BW/WW). The point is MJ does what he wants and does not respect other shows. I bet you he couldn't come up with his own show.

Please don't bring up the trash of WS/DC. Cheetara was raped in that.

Yes it is. Cartoon Network dropped ThunderCats as soon as the final episode aired. No repeats at all.

Bandai probably won't admit defeat until the UK toys have done shipping, so they don't sabotage any sales.

Um, no. They didn't. All that was proved was that Bruce Wayne has flirted with her in the comics and that they've kissed. That's not proof of popularity. You wouldn't have that without some kind of fan poll or something. And I'm not talking a biased poll like was tried with L/C where the only people that were asked were people they already knew agreed with them.
