It looks like every other modern cartoon inspired by Pendleton wards comedic adventure Time style and tone.

Personally I feel that genndy tartakovsky could have done an amazing take on this since he knows how to do amazing stylized action cartoons.

But I'm not a thundercats fan so... Eh?

TTG is a good show, just not when it's the only thing on the tv channel for the next fourteen hours.
If we are talking shows that I have already watched, there aren't a lot of shows that I would sit and watch for 14 hours straight. Lol. Prime Simpsons and It's always sunny are the only two I can think of off the top of my head.

Basically, this style of art is lazy and looks stupid.

The artwork for Steven Universe is terrible.

I still watch it and even like the stories once in a while, but the art itself is fucking garbage. Lets not fool ourselves, please. That said, none of the remakes, good or bad, should impact our enjoyment of the originals. Those are still around for younger audiences to discover and enjoy.

TTG is a good show, just not when it's the only thing on the tv channel for the next fourteen hours.

If TTG didn't have to same costumes and voice actors of the other TT, I think many people would have an easier time just not complaining about. But they took characters that people loved and changed them in to heartless assholes. And the time between the reboot and the ending wasn't that long so people were still young and had those feelings still near to them.

Nah. TTG is legitimately bad. But it does have one talent, which is actual parody. When its not being brain dead and actually puts effort into the comedy, it can be good. But thats not the status quo of the show >_>

its essentially the exact same show as Hi Hi Puffy Ami Yumi, which if you go back to, has the same hit-or-miss style.

Hey, the 80s had the Gobots!

I'm glad someone mentioned Voltron. I haven't seen the Netflix version, but I loved the 80s version (the one with the lions, of course).

I also loved Robotech. I wanted to love Captain Harlock and the Queen of a Thousand Years, but it was just too confusing for me to follow, especially since I couldn't watch it every day. (I've seen every single episode of Robotech.)

Again, aside from being low on detail, this looks nothing like adventure time.

Eh, it's not a good show, but it does have some fun parodies and at least it's self aware of its own issues and makes fun of them often

Its honestly strange to me when adults claim TTG is a good show. I tried watching a bit of the show and was cringing every 30 seconds or so. Tried to watch the movie that everyone said was better and couldnt get past 15 minutes of it. I did watch all the way through the crossover movie but any of the TTG segments were agony (thankfully the movie seemed to focus on the serious titans more), especially the music gags.

Its all just so embarrassingly forced, braindead and unfunny. And being self-aware and pointing out your flaws only works when you attempt to move past them. I can understand children liking it since I liked some stupid shit when I was a kid, but I cant imagine an adult being able to stomach it. People like what they like though, I suppose.

What's wrong with people wanting more quality, and frankly there is a lack of diversity in animation now which is worse given how various series (like Steven Universe) are ridiculously inconsistent in their animation, Steven goes from looking 3 feet tall to five feet tall. Sometimes in sequential scenes, sometimes even in the same scene, while Hanna-Barbera had recycled animation (and they sure had a lot) at least it looked consistent.

Just like He-Man.

He-man is great. Like seriously, if a show stays in the public knowledge decades after it aired, it's definitely notable.

I do think Thundercats is kinda bad but it definitely has fans.

Yeah, I like SU, but its inconsistency in design is pretty odd. OK KO is even more blatantly inconsistent, but at least it plays with its inconsistency

The Roar one is well animated, but the direction is pretty bad, and the music just hurts my ears (especially that screech at the end)
Here's a much better opening of another new show with a cat protagonist
