yea...I keep hearing "well its for kids"...and the original one wasn't?  Why does "for kids" have to mean asinine and irreverent.  Also waiting to see what they do with She-Ra.  At Least the new Voltron is good

 I was four when the OG Thundercats came out and never had an issue following it, cartoons don't need to be some dumbed down like they are so often nowdays.  The new Voltron is freaking awesome, a rmake done right,, even better than the original IMO.  Hope if the new She-Ra does well that we will get a new He-Man.

Yea..I really don't get this style and direction now.  Not when you had Avatar: The Last Airbender not too long ago showing how an animated series could be smart, goofy, action packed and not dumbed down.  The creator said "as a fan this is the show I want to see..."

What. The. Frell? This looks terrible  >:(  :'(

Also good to know the new Voltron is good, I've been wanting to watch that on Netflix.

Yeah that does absolutely nothing but take away from the original.  Also, that's animation?  I guess knowing how to draw no longer matters? 

"Gimme a pen - there's money to be made!"

I won't be watching that.   >:(

I haven't watched the original, but this just looks absolutely horrible. I have a love and appreciation for good animation, but this is anything but that.

I think we can all agree that this looks so bad. Horrible in fact. Totally ruined one of the most perfect 80s cartoon series.

Just for you (and as a palette cleanser for everyone else) here's the intro to the original cartoon.

I'm personally not a fan of metal, but for those of you who are, rock on.

The new Voltron is really good, even better than the orginal 80's cartoon IMO.  It has a great story, great animation, and great voice acting.  And season 6 is on the way!

This is still my favortie cartoon opening of all time. The show had such a good soundtrack too.  I have several songs on my computer.

I didn't even listen to the video, but I saw that weak-ass man bun and immediately dismissed it.

HAHA!  That's no man bun though. That's just a straight up full blown I've peeked and I still have my 80's metal hair situation. ;)
And as for this this new Thunderkitten situation. All I have to say is SNARF NO!!!!

I blame this stupid reboot on Teen Titans Go!

Ugh, I'm so mad about this new show.  Who the hell thought this was a good idea???  This was my FAVORITE show growing up and it made such an impact on me, I always wanted the symbol tattooed on me.  When the first reboot came in 2011, I liked it so much, I went ahead and got the Eye of Thundera tatted on me.  I've always loved it. 

But THIS?  Ugh.  It's some kind of comedic farce that so dumbed down, I can't even make it through the "behind the scenes" crap.

My favorite cartoon as a kid and still one of them to this day. I watched a few episodes of the orginal series this afternoon and it still holds up.  You get so many bonus cool points for having the Eye of Thundera tatted on!!
