[SpiderHulkThing]

i'd like to see a thundercats live action for the hell of it.

 

[Abaddon]

shouldnt this be in the movies forum?

 

[NHawk19]

And I dont mean crappy power rangers style either.

 

[raybia]

Its not an 80s cartoon but Speed Racer seriously should be made.

Too bad it wasn't done in the 1990s as Johnny Depp was perfect along with Nic Cage as Racer X, and directed by Michael Bey.

And I dont mean crappy power rangers style either.

this is what i was gonna say..... with cgi and a star wars feel...this will KICK A$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

 

[Son Of Logan]

A Voltron movie would definitely kick tail.

 

[3dman27]

karate kommandoes minus chuck norris of course

 

[Hobgoblin]

Rachel McAdams has said she would like to play Cheetara in a Thundercats movie, so I'm totally behind that idea.

Voltron Live-Action Movie In The Works, New Animated Series

We should have been expecting something like this. After all, when it rains in Hollywood, it pours. All the buzz surrounding the Michael Bay/Steven Spielberg production of the Transformers appears to have inspired other producers to line up 80’s cartoon licenses of their own. This week The Hollywood Reporter has learned that New Line Cinema acquired the rights to a Voltron feature film, with the project being produced by Mark Gordon (The Day After Tomorrow, Speed). A quick visit to the World Events Productions website (owners of Voltron) currently reveals no additional details about the film, however, apparently there is a new Voltron animated series on the way, most likely to be officially announced later this year. Kickstart Entertainment are the ones behind it, and they have a promo video of the new Voltron series up on their website now. It looks pretty cool actually. As for the live-action movie… well at least it won’t require as much CGI as the Transformers flick, but every Voltron episode followed the same damn formula. “Form blazing sword!” Why didn’t they ever just start with the blazing sword??

HERE ARE STILLS FROM THE NEW CARTOON

It was slated to air last fall...appears to have been pushed back or cancelled.

Ick, the animation on the sight looks abismal Poor Voltron. I wish American animation could at least be a fluid as some of the good anime
