Spidey Freak Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 What the? That's truly outrageous! This definitely was the best girl-oriented animated show of all time! 1 Quote
kowhite Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Never heard of the property.Will the girls be hot? Important question. Quote
Spidey Freak Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Never heard of the property.Will the girls be hot? Important question. Depends on the actresses cast. And subjective tastes. Quote
Hanamichi Sakuragi Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 (edited) I remember watching a lot of this, back when I would watch anything that was animated. From what I remember, it was really dumb. Really really dumb. Edited March 22, 2014 by Louise Belcher 1 Quote
BadAtGender Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 (edited) I'm rather excited for this. Jem could be really cracktastic at times, but was never any dumber than, say, GI Joe or Transformers. My biggest concern is Chu as the director. Although this is probably more in his wheelhouse than GI Joe Retaliation was. Edited March 21, 2014 by DamienRoc 1 Quote

Really really dumb. That's crazy! Popstar with a double live, going on epic adventures with her band, running an entire orphanage of girls and fighting a rival rock band and their manipulative and sleazy manager? Plus in show music videos? This pawns stuff like Hannah Montana, which clearly got the "pop star leading a dual life" hook from this. Quote
Hanamichi Sakuragi Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Didn't the rival band frequently try to kill Jem and the rest of her band? 1 Quote
Spidey Freak Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Didn't the rival band frequently try to kill Jem and the rest of her band? Yes, and their evil manager even had the orphanage they ran bombed once. That's why the show was so epic. Quote

No reason this property can't be done. 1 Quote

Spidey Freak Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 I want THUNDERCATS, HO: THE MOVIE NAOW!!!! 1 Quote
Fancyarcher Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 (edited) I want THUNDERCATS, HO: THE MOVIE NAOW!!!! One of the best cartoon themes ever. The score of the show itself is a work of art. Personally I'd be all up for a live action Thundercats movie. The 2011 reboot was great and was seriously underappreciated and mistreated by CN. Basically anything involving Thundercats at this point (no matter how crappy it may be) will do. Edited October 17, 2014 by Pokearcher 1 Quote
