Thundercats are go!

   The thunder cats were a popular cartoon in the 80’s.  The characters were cat like humans. They each had their own markings like a cat. The show’s plot was about a team of heroes that home planet has died.

    The team of heroes ends up on another planet called the third earth, which is supposed to be our earth in the future. An evil came to try to take over the third earth, while the Thundercats try to save their new home for the evil.

   The art is an early form of anime that most of the 80’s cartoons used. A way to tell that it is anime because of the way the eyes are draw smaller then in a show like betty boop which had very big eyes and a very big head to go with it.

The bodies look similar to the real human body, all the joints on the bodies move like a real human unlike mickey mouse or once a again betty boop. Their bodies had no sense of joints at times.

   The Thundercats started in 1985 and ended in 1989, though today it has been brought back with an updated look and a modern day plot. In the new plot of the 2011 show is that the planet has been attacked. The heroes fled in order to seek out a book called the omens.

     

  Though it is still based on the same concept the art and plot are the only this that was updated to catch the eye of younger children in today’s time.
