This Fake Thundercats Trailer

Cheesy as hell, but kind of awesome anyway. Why doesn't someone actually make a Thundercats movie? I'm 100% certain it would make a boatload of money.

Slick cuts from Aliens and Stargate. Still wonder why Thundercats are retro cool but He-man is still kitsch (even crypto-racist?) despite its more original and coherent techno-magical aesthetic.

I blame Diablo Cody and Rousseau.

I would see this on opening night. Twice. But then, about half of my imaginary friends growing up were the Thundercats (also He-Man, She-Ra, a few GI Joe characters,... you get the point).

Forget a real movie. Can we just ask the people who put together that trailer to make a whole movie? I mean, what studio is actually going to pay for Brad Pitt and Hugh Jackman to dress up in cat costumes and fight?

Yes. I want to see more.

i never understod why thunder cats and he mans used swords and tridents wen there were laser guns all over the place (see action figures) was it b/c swords are more useful if you neeed to pick something off the ground like the dudes on the side of the highway please answer without using the letter 'p'

Swords are classier. Why use laser guns, even, when you can just nuke everyone?

I'd just want to see Brad Pitt in a tight and shiny catsuit or a skimpy speedo--hell with the movie.

Only if Brad Pitt promises to use a vaguely English accent for yet another character from a foreign country/planet that is nowhere near England. But he should still show his thighs.

I never really watched Thundercats, so I don't get most of this trailer. Seems well made though.

I love how this is cobbled together from like 30 different movies. And Garfield is Snarf! How crazy is that?

Still, the idea is sound. Make it so Hollywood.
