Also notice how Dobo goes right after Pumyra, a hit with a knee and a growl.
Pumyra: Glad to see you, too. One big problem in this episode, the 4 mutanteers got their butts handed to them in this episode. We get very little fighting out of them with it being either standing around or getting smacked in the head. So I think Mumm-ra will celebrate with Pumyra in a giant cake. |
I have to say, this episode is the first in some time that actually entertained me. It's also a very good season finale. They managed to draw together a lot of the strands.
Also, besides having no doubt that Pumyra was going to turn, the blind rage like that directed at Lion-O is in character and makes psychological sense. (Rational sense is another issue of course.) The episode had some flaws, but nothing that I'm going to harp on, especially since the better outweighed it. In the end, my biggest problem isn't from this episode at all, it's that the 'Duelist and the Drifter' ends up contributing zero to the series; the lesson wasn't a vital element when Lion-O and Tygra fought, it never came up in any episode despite it being a "lesson learned" kind of episode. It does amuse me that they deliberately powered down the Sword of Omens for this series then had it shoot down multiple fighters in the finale. That said, I'll earn some ire with the hardcore fans in saying my mind has not been changed, I'd prefer it were this the series finale. |

Thundercats - Tonight at 8/7c! - YouTube |
Maybe I'm the only one but...
Am I the only one that is pretty much amazed by the idea of Mumm-Ra having a GIRLFRIEND??!!
I mean... I'm so freaking out and... hysterical right now that I'm posting!! I mean, I create this account so I can comment 'cause I love Thundercats since I was a little girl (My three favorite shows of all time was D&D, Thundercats and He-man) and because I so hardcore Mumm-Ra's fan (favorite characters of all time: Venger from D&D, Mumm-Ra and Skeletor) and in the end... Nawwww, I can't, I'm lazy... And this is so a big deal for me that I'm posting! How cool was THAT??! From my three all time favorites, Mumm-Ra was the most asexual of the all three, even with the Princess Ta-she episode and Luna around him all time in the OS. I mean, Skeletor and Evil-lyn were an item, you could tell that... Venger, well, there are a lot of SheilaxVenger fanfics and fans always saw his attractive anyhow... But Mumm-Ra? I thought he was so interested in women like in charity, even with the comics with Wilikyt in a Princess Leia costume. And they not only made the fact natural but amazing too, with a treason, with an old time character, with Lion-O feeling like crap... I loved it, I screamed like a little girl when I saw it. I really hope the cartoon won't be cancelled or almost I hope to see a second season. I really want to see Mumm-Ra squeezing Pumyra and she like his second in command. And if they bring back Ma-Mutt, they could make my day :P Ps: Now, thanks to this I also have the mother of all lines to say to screw my single friends: Even Mumm-Ra could get a girl before you XD |
Called it. Also explains why Pumyra is stupid enough to be willing to let the whole bird city crash to the ground while they, the tcats, were still in a building and not near their plane. She's already frigging undead.
|
Can someone tell me what happened at the beginning of the episode? My friend's Tivo started when Pumyra was being picked up and Lion-O yelled at her for being disobedient (again). Then Vultureman just tells his guards to confine them or something. I missed something since at the end of the previous episode they were told to dump them.
Anyway, it was an okay episode, but it seemed extremely rushed. The twist of necrophelia was unexpected, but I felt let down by the end, especially if that ends up being the series finale. |
Quote:
To be screwed over for Tygra is one thing. But Mumm-Ra? Damn… Lion-O’s next love interest will probably jerk him around too and finally choose Snarf. |
Quote:
Vultureman made a grand gesture of pointing out that usually they send their guests back to the ground via airship, but the cats are so barbaric that they will be sent back to the ground via falling with the junk. Vultureman has Osirus open the very slow dropping mechanism and they get word that there's an attack force coming. Lion-O shouts that it's Mumm-Ra coming for the stone and Vultureman states, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend" and has the garbage doors close. |

Lion-O will be dumped in every season finale apparently. In the next season, what new char will they introduce for us just so that she can dump lion-o for the cliffhanger

I'm highly amused to see that the forum, which was largely "OH NOEZ, Lion-o/Pumyra!" is now "OH NOEZ, Pumyra iz traitorz!!!11oneeleventyone!"
You know, with slightly better grammar. Quote:
As for Cheetara, I'd have to say that perhaps her powers aren't strong enough for her to sense the presence of undead. Or maybe the ASoE are just that good. As for the episode itself, I'm glad to see I wasn't the only one who enjoyed it, even if it was somewhat cliche. I liked the call back to all the folks Lion-O has helped, and totally saw the Forever Bag thing coming :P I was disappointed not to see the Drifter, but I imagine he'd be hard to track down, given his usual means of travel, and no one besides Lion-O has even met him. I did not see the 'Pumyra iz traitorz' thing coming, although now I'm trying to figure out how I missed it. It makes perfect sense. Her being dead was quite a shocker, but I think it adds depth to her character. Cliched depth, but depth. Actually, at the beginning of the episode, I was admiring how gently Lion-O rebuked her...now and again we see shades of the wise king he's going to be, and how far he's come since he left Thundara in a rage. A nice spot of brotherly-protection, too, with Tygra coming to Lion-O's rescue, with another one of those 'No-one picks on my brother but me' kind of lines. I didn't mind the exchange between Cheetara and Tygra either...their relationship seems to be settling down to a 'Yeah, we're together, this is normal now' kind of thing...I wouldn't mind seeing them face some sort of difficulty to shake them up a little bit, though not at the expense of action and plot. Let's see...Oh yes, and I thought Kit's bit at the end with Lion-O was quite endearing. Pairing nonsense aside (I hope you all aren't serious about that! o.O;; ) I really like the little sister role she seems to have become to Lion-O, who has been the younger sibling all his life. I'd be interested to see how Kat feels about someone else being his twin sister's hero. Anyway, with the way Lion-O seems to be jerked about every time he finally offers part of his heart to someone (friends and potential mates alike!), it's nice to see someone who truly, honestly loves him and looks up to him, with no ulterior motives. Beyond hoping he might lead them to the City of Gold and all. I think this was the best episode I've seen from the new Thundercats in a while, and has done a good job restoring a sense of urgency and plot continuity. With the Tcats being at the disadvantage now, losing a stone and an ally, it actually feels like they may have to step up their game again, rather than coasting as they have since episode 16 or so. A hiatus wouldn't be the end of the world, but I really hope this isn't the last we see of the new series for a while. This episode was a carrot...don't give us the stick now! < /long winded post of long-windedness > |

Man, I don't hate Lion-o at all, but I like villains too much, Mumm-Ra especially, to not enjoy this at all. It's like a fangirl's dream come true, a fanfiction with images XD Even I think that they made Pumyra kiss the hand-shield because, even cool as it is, tongue-kissing a mummy could be just too much XD |

Hey, if the ASoE can bring back Pumyra and Tygra's whole clan...who else could they bring back? Given the obvious Star Wars nods in this episode...I wouldn't mind seeing Claudus return in some way, shape, or form. I don't think Lion-O's quite gotten past the thing where he thinks Tygra would be a better king...or that he was a disappointment to his father. Ah, well, there's always fanfiction. If I feel brave enough to face The Pit (and not the one from the Dogs' City, either!) |
Quote:
But we are talking cartoons here, US cartoons, I have to add. If this was an anime, trust me, that kiss could be full showed and more other things :P Aside from that... Who thinks Pumyra in second season (let's hope it will be make) will have a new 'bad girl' outfit? I bet some Queen Luna kind of thing or some Mumm-Rana in evil :P Also about the ASoE and bringing more dead guys to torment Lion-O... Sure his father would be something shocking to him, in the same way his mother could be a low hit for Tygra. Man, now I really want second season >_< I want to see Mumm-Ra petting Pumyra, maybe with Mumm-Ra in somekind of throne like the one in season premier in Thundera, with his beloved in his feet resting her head in his knee... http://patcegan.files.wordpress.com/...ry-excited.jpg Hey, even villains need love too :P |
If Pumyra actually had this much hatred towards Lion-O, then why didn't she finish him off back in the Pit? Why didn't she tried to kill him when she had every chance she could get in the last several episodes?

Also in the flashbacks are the cats the ones that manipulate the book (Leo finding the stones) so maybe he can't make it work and now with Jaga inside, that could be even more impossible to him. |
Man, what a plot twist. Loved the episode. I kind of cried at the when Kit said... "But, look what you've gained" and pointed to the gathered animals.
I take my earlier comment back. I now feel sad to see the show go. :( |

Too late, the cartoon already did that :P Quote:
That was a present from Mumm-Ra, to his favorite slave girl :P Quote:
I only hope she doesn't end up trying to bury the Sword of Omens like the dog in the OS :P Quote:
Like someone said: Losing a girl for your brother is bad, but for the creepy Big Bad of your life? It's like seeing your highschool sweetheart with the highschool bully, making out... But, in the other hand... Man, how I'm enjoying this!! XD I'm a villain junkie since I was four years old. I saw all my series for the villains and I loved them a lot. Seeing something like this? For me? Christmas XD Quote:
|
if there is a second season, (which at the moment looks highly unlikley), i think they might go the route of half a season of Pumyra saying she hates Lion-o but relises that she really likes then and switches back over. then we get half a season of them not trusting her intill the final battle where she sacrifices herself to help Lion-o win
|
Pumyra!!!!!!
oh no you di'int! Not really sure why Vultureman betrayed his people? He didn't like the Thundercats because they wanted the stone that would make the city fall, so because they were his enemy,he joined forced with Mumm-ra as 'the enemy of my enemy is my friend' even though Mumm-ra wanted to take the stones and make the city fall too? I hope we get to see Ratar-o with the other four mutants at some point. I always thought the relationship between the five was underused in the old toon and interaction between Mumm-ra and Ratar-o would be interesting too as ratar-o doesn't seem the type to take orders. |
Great episode .... I want more. Felt great seeing slithe, monkian, jackalman and vultureman all together for that brief moment.
I really cannot fault this episode apart from it being a crappy place to leave it, if indeed it is to be the last episode. |

So mumm-ra has the tech stone but the berbils seem to be able to match anything the tech stone can do well at least so far. Is the tech stone the only one that might work for mumm-ra as it seems to be the only one to have worked for him in the legacy ep and it seems the spirit stone refuses to let mumm-ra obtain it again hence mumm-ra's comment "the stones are protecting you"

Wheres my Money Stewie & Brian (Hd) - YouTube The Generals together look all sorts of awesome. It would have been nice to extend their fight scenes. *image in my head of Vultaire getting wing sauce put on him by Atticus if he ever screwed up* |
Huh... so basically, Pumyra is a Revenant (for those who played D&D). Explains her constant anger... and now we know how Mumm-ra knew where the sword was, or how he got it, or how he followed them everywhere...
Awesome season ending. Just hope there is more. IMagine what cool new armor/clothes Pumyra would get, being one of Mumm-Ra's generals... Vultaire was hilarious. "Hey, what can I say. I am a politician." Sums it up nicely. :) |
Quote:
I don't think Myra is going to be his general. She's more like his little lovemuffin. *did I just make myself throw up there?* Maybe she'll get a Princess Leia outfit too. Or something to match Mumm-Ra's. Mumm-Ra: Come hither my little kitty-kat. Pumyra: *meow* Right here for you my undead Daddy-poo. JUST KIDDING! Their relationship to me struck more as a master-slave rather than boyfriend-girlfriend if that makes any sense. |

pumyra is a smart one isn't she, side with the person responsible for killing you and seek revenge against the person who did not know you were alive and who didn't happen to hear you when you whispered help.
and didn't mumm-ra almost kill a pumyra a few times, i know the writers will say that was part of the scheme they were pulling on the cats but lion-o barely saved pumyra from the mumm-ra dino thingy and there's no way they were counting on lion-o to save her last minute so i guess pumyra was willing to sacrifice her life and let mumm-ra eat her as long as lion-o was next on the plate. |
There is plenty they could do if they continued this cartoon.
There is still another stone to find. They can give Slythe and the other generals some more characterization. They can tell the fate of Lynx-O. They can introduce Bengali and the Lunataks and Mandora and all the other old school characters. |
Whatever happened to Jaga?
|
Slithe: Welcome to Mumm-ra's side.
Vultaire: What can I say, it will be an opportunity. Kaynar: Speaking of which, we have this little game we like to play. Vultaire: Oh, really. Kaynar: You dropped something. Vultaire: Oh, how clumsy. *Bends down.* Atticus: I'M FIRST!! *Jumps Vultaire.* Vultaire: AH! Kaynar: First one to bend down loses. |
And now what? Anyone knows what will happen next week will they go make a pause?

I don't think CN will do reruns. They haven't so far. |

The next set of threads ideas:
Discuss the overall Season 1 story. Separate character threads to talk just about that one character. Necrobump old episode threads and discuss what we now know to it. |
Addicus eats bird people, I suppose Vultaire will find this out later.
|
They better fix this whole Pumyra situation or this show is dead to me! Which might be the case already as it seems very unlikely the show will renew anyways... ugh.
|
One of the plans was to let Pumyra get into Lion-O's heart. Then when she betrays him, he would feel the pain of betrayal she felt when in her eyes, "Lion-O betrayed and left me for dead."
