Thundercats – TV Trailer

thundercats-small

We’ve had plenty to say about thundercats in the past both on and off mic here at (Cool) Shite. We all loved the anime style opening, we all loved the theme song. We all had our pet hates too, be it Snarf, Mar Mutt, the annoying kids, or just the internal animation quality.  It was only very recently we showed you a clip of the CGI style movie that never came to be.  Now Cartoon Network have got something to show us with this trailer for their upcoming series, with animation done by acclaimed Anime producers Studio4°C.

They look to have really upped the backstory and the world building of Thundera, to let us really understand where these characters came from and whats at stake.  If this is a patch on the 2002 He-Man remake this will make for some entertaining viewing indeed. Check it out!

Synopsis

Roaring to life through WBA and Studio4°C’s use of the Japanese animated artistry of anime, ‘ThunderCats’ characters Lion-O, Mumm-Ra, Panthro, Cheetara and others will spring off the screen with realistic cat-like characteristics inconceivable in previous incarnations.

The new ‘ThunderCats’ will appeal to viewers who have loved the characters all their lives as well as young newcomers to the franchise. A sweeping tale combining swords and science and boasting ferocious battles with the highest of stakes, the grand origin story of Prince Lion-O’s ascension to the throne – and of those who would thwart his destiny at any cost – takes on epic dimensions in this sharp new telling. As the forces of good and evil battle each other in the quest for the fabled Stones of Power, Lion-O and his champions learn valuable lessons of loyalty, honor and mortality in every episode.
