"Name's Panthro"

[proteus_lives]

Greetings True Believers!

I've made several posts about the new Thundercats series and several posters were concerned with the severe lack of Panthro.

Let their worries be vanquished! The big 'cat has returned.

In an epic way.

Spoilers for the most recent episode and enjoy!



The Thundercats have made their way through a thick forest after helping a race flower/plant people and fear not, Lion-O learned a lesson.

They're being chased by a Lizard army and they turn to confront them and when all hope seems lost...

Shit. Just. Got. Real.

For the legal, the cover of an Avengers back issue I picked up at WW.

Oooh, that made my childhood tingle.

I'm about ready for a Jem remake now. Anyone else?

I've been hoping for a Jem remake for a couple of years. It could be amazing if done correctly.

Only if its done by the same team that does MLP: Friendship is magic.

I don't know. It really seems to me that Jem was a product of its time in a way that most other cartoons are not. The Holograms and the Misfits were both very much eighties bands, and the whole show was a product of the music-video era. It would be very hard to update that concept.

There's also just the problem of doing musical television in general: it's really hard to keep churning out good original songs at the rate that a daily or even weekly television series requires. Glee has gotten around this problem by the simple expedient of using songs that are already popular. That wouldn't work with a show that's supposed to be about a successful band (two bands, actually) performing original songs. How many songs do you remember from the original series other than the theme song?

Except for Phineas and Ferb of course.

You got my one guilty pleasure, bring back Jem already. I found the voice actresses on facebook, for both Jerrica and the Jem singing voice. If we're going all 80's bring on Jem! Outrageous!

Truly(x3) Outrageous.

I've been trying to WRITE a Jem remake for the past three months. Part of me wants to put Diana Agron from "Glee" as Jem/Jerrica and Lindsay Lohan as Pizazz.

Another part is crazier.

A third wants to keep the show's continuity intact and make it take place in the present day and...oh hell with it, let me open Office back up now. :D
