Jesal , ,yes I completely agree with you , , Hollywierd just keeps getting it wrong ,because they think NOTHING of the source material , , for live action versions of anything , Hollywierd has NO respect , , 😸👍👍
It will never cease to amaze me what kind of insane shit people are able to create just by sheer love and dedication to whatever they are fans of. This is not something a big studio or even game publisher did on a huge budged, it's done by a guy who loves his craft! I'm utterly amazed.
yo! this made me tear up, i love how he kept it original and just gave the graphics a today's look. That's how re-boots should be and not changing everything to be modern...this was perfect
@@ajspice You cant beat the atmosphere of the music, voice acting and (japanese?) old style animation. Same goes for the old Transformers and gi joe series.
Agreed- Because the fans (ones who genuinely KNOW and LOVE what they make) don't have to go through all that corporate 🐂💩 and the corporate execs who are more concerned about counting beans, than creating something that honors and respects the source material (99% of the time)😉.
Man, im from South East Asia - Malaysia. Born in 75, and boy let me tell ya.. 80's cartoons like thundercats, transformers, starcom, gi joe were the best things in my childhood! Never miss em.. Platinum!
Can’t avoid to see this with teary eyes 🥹!!! The best time growing up! When we used to play outside and comeback inside and watch Thundercats,Transformers,He-Man,GI-Joe,Gobots, etc…….. when being a kid was good!!! I thank God to let me grow up in the best times ever!🙏🏻 To the creator of this…… You did a video but…… you did more than that!!!! You brought happiness to many of us the look back with a smile 😊!!! Thank you sir!!! God bless you!!🫵🏼
Anyone who thinks that those mummification wraps are toilet wraps are just kids from 2000s. Go do your homework kiddo and watch Ben10. You have no right to undermine the animation and concept art of the 80s ya dumbo.
As an old schooler like myself who use to watch this show from way back when and once own the entire toy playset I can admit it This CG opening was so AWESOMELY AMAZING I thought it was a new movie trailer or a game teaser or something....
Yes that essential screaming From Mumm Ra is fabulous you know I think the guy name was Muhammad right that played Mumm Ra back in the '80s yes without that that roar from Mumm Ra it will not be a classic ThunderCats movie 💜💜💜❤️❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗 I'm looking forward to it 2023 🌠🌠🌠🌠🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💜❤️🤗🤗🤗🤗
@@MikeBoothFilm, if by "alive" you mean in a way that involves chemistry, alchemy and lightning, topped up with some maniacal laughter, then I miiight agree with you.
Thudercats roar is a disgrace to the OG creators and fan base. And also degrading the kids imagination and artistic taste. Thundercats 2011 animation was a step in the right direction but well we all know what happened to that.
Thanks for the love everyone! I know how passionate the ThunderCats community is so it's really awesome to see such a great reaction. Some things that come up a lot in the comments: How long did it take? 4 months. I started by modelling the Sword of Omens in April, progressed to the Thundertank, then the Cats' Lair, then the characters, and before I knew it, I was doing the whole thing. It's too bright/dark! Yeah... that was actually a deliberate choice on my part to give it a more stylised look (and hide some of the dodgy CGI), but I agree I might have pushed it a little bit too far. Doh. Do one for Silverhawks/M.A.S.K./Transformers! Oh man, I could really only stomach doing this amount of work for the ThunderCats. Sorry Silverhawks fans. Otherwise, I think it's alright. And anyone who says otherwise has a poop mouth with poop opinions.
Thank you so much for this. I am 42 years old and now I am crying like a baby. This was definitely the most amazing design opening, in addition to the wonderful soundtrack
I so wish this technology existed when this and other shows were on the air. Original transformers and voltron are so much better than the modern ones came out. This was my childhood. I even remember when lion voltron and vehicle voltron met up
@@TheAmerica4evr One fan did this for fun and you want a better version?! How about you pay for a fucking supercomputer for him then, you complete an utter entitled tool.
Guys, this made me cry 1 minute in, I was smiling and suddenly got emotional and confused about it. Even though I had just listened to the original intro this actually made feel the happiness I experienced as a child when I used to watch this. Kudos to the creator
Dude. This is not only incredible but also just shows how legendary the editing and choices made in the 80s intro were. Thundercats was genius. And so is this.
Agreed. To this day, I still think of the original as the best animated intro ever. The cuts, angles and composition of those "shots" were fantastic. Should be awards given.
Pretty solid work as a concept piece. The only things I would tweak would be the over exposure in certain scenes and add more detail and texture in the faces -- getting a bit of that uncanny valley look. But very impressive for someone who just started 3d animation this year. Give this man a real budget and more time to polish this and we will have something truly amazing.
Considering pretty much all of our cartoons at that time were just high-budget toy commercials, we did actually have some pretty great animation. I compare it to some of the shows we have these days, and most of them look like 65% of the animation budget was blown on coke, and not the good stuff either, the cheap shit cut with baby formula for the common folk.
Man, I'm Brazilian, and here in my country this animation, makes history and fans since the 80's, 90's. I'm happy for the work, respect and affection that you had with this animation. Now a request from a fan: recreate the opening of the Silverhawks ... for God's sake kkk you are blessed bro.
Considering Brazil is the one that managed to get the kids from Dungeons and Dragons home, despite it being a car commercial, is high praise in and of itself.
That's krazy man..I jus asked dude to create the Silverhawks intro before I even seen your comment...lol.. Silverhawks was a slept on classic..Monstar was one of my favorite villains he had sum dope transformations
Just an FYI for unfamiliar readers, the "kkk" in the original comment is a giggle like "hehe" in several countries, just wanted to be clear preemptively. :)
Showed this to my 40 year old uncle... he literally started crying as he replayed it like 10 times 😭 lol. Amazing work and this even brought back memories for me!
I don't know your uncle but I bet his reaction was same as mine; I am 40. And yep I did a loop of this like 10 times too and had tears of joy rolling down my face too. Lots of happy memories flooded back. Mostly jumping off sofas and shouting Hooooooo. This is a very rare followup that is actually good and worthy of being called thundercats!
Like most stuff online it's because it's made by fans, for fans. Not having to go through a network who think they know what the public want but don't have a feckin' clue! Until fans are allowed to make reboots they'll all fail miserably.
Man..i love thundercats opening. Whenever i hear it, my skin feels like ants are crawling all over me. I also love gavan and neon genesis. These 3 openings are really the most kickass since the invention of tv. These three are the goat. And what a fantastic job youve done for this recreation. Far cooler then the recent strawberry thunder kittens i seen but cant unseen on tv
This one is probably one of the best intros to any show ever. Its captures the mood and experience of the show. It primes your body and mind of what to expect in the next 30minutes
I was just telling my daughter that while showing her my DVDs. I basically said that the theme songs is what helped make some of these cartoons popular
I LOVE THIS. As an animator and filmmaker myself I think this is one of the best 2D to 3D remake I've ever seen. I like how you gave the Thundercats title at the end a sorta yellowish tint to give it an old film-ish feel. Feel the magic, hear the roar man!!
I’m 17 now and I’m so glad my dad got me to watch it with him when I was younger. It’s rare to see modern cartoons that have that much heart put into the opening. I might be a modern teen but I live for older cartoons like Thundercats.
yes it is.....many come close....but nothing i have ever seen in animation has ever topped this intro.....Batman the animated series has a masterful intro...but it does'nt get the adrenaline going like this ...not even close...this is TOTALLY the greatest cartoon intro ever...and it has one of the best theme songs ever as well
@@keithmorrison9372 you are an idiot. This is a fan made intro. Not produced by any major studio. It is a bit raw but not bad. With more budget it can be upgraded for sure. That being said if you didn't like it have some respect for this person who made it. What have you done? This short video is wayyy better than that stupid thundercats roar reboot. All in all. If you have nothing good to say please don't say anything.
I have to throw a mention to the opening for Gargoyles... but there's no way I'm gonna say that either is better than the other. Just worth bringing up in the same league
When I saw the video title, I said to myself, "why would someone do this, the opening is perfect and already has the best animation of the whole show"... I'm glad I clicked and watched anyway, because this is f'ing phenomenal. Really great work.
As impressive as that cartoon series was, I never did get into it, but I always respect it's originality. Seeing devotion for things like this that are dearly loved by others, as you've shown here with your hard labor, is what keeps me from abandoning TH-cam entirely. Terrific, Mr. Booth!
I mean I'm a 40 year old man, but like this is EXACTLY how my child brain rendered those awesome 2D cells from the OG series in my brain 😁 Amazing recreation.
When are the big movie studios going to see that Thundercats is perfect material for a reboot first a movie to explain the backstory and then a full blown action packed serie....oh and give this guy top dollar to oversee the project, this remade is frigging amazing!!!!! lets hope Warner Bros. is smart enough to do that!!
@@fxranger326 how exactly thundercats would do that? and who told you to judge before anything happens? isn't that contradictory? too much fox news , my boy. Remember that it is not a real news outlet.
HELL YES!!!! Just found this and DAMN! Thank you for the perfect animation on Cheetarah. I LOVE her scene and I was afraid in CGI, it would look too slow in her run animation, but DAMN did you nail it!!!!! Thanks for your work. You did my heart proud and at 45 and a retired soldier, I NEEDED something, I didn't know it was the reworking of Thundercats opening. LOL. BAD ASS!!!
30 years later and that theme song STILL makes me wanna run through a wall!
Broo same
Same here dude. Got so hyped.
Lol
Whew... truth
Yes
SOMEONE GIVE THIS MAN A BUDGET AND A STAFF TO MAKE THIS AN ACTUAL NEW REMAKE. FFS... TOP NOTCH STUFF. Loved it
Netflix should be like 😍
Fuckin agree with that
+1
How about patrons, he could try get it there
For real that was awesome hope they give him the budget to make it
This was my whole childhood summed up in one cartoon intro; no, I’m not crying, you’re crying!
I still listen to the soundtrack while working out!

They do because they got the heart and love for it.
The creators and coorporations only got love for their pockets not love for fans.
Once, a long time ago, the creators of the series were also fans of their own work; or so the legend says...
You are correct sir
Can we all just take a moment to admire how on point mummra was
True INDEED
To that I sat 1:03
This$ mummra was even better than the original! The reboot needs this guy for the cgi!
Just needs more saliva then bang on
Some kids will never know of this show's greatness.
💯
Some kids nowadays won’t know greatness of any of these shows as all they want to watch now is a load of shit. They wouldn’t know who sonic is.
The intro was the best show introduction to hype a show!
True
@@CasualGamer2K24 except there's 2 Sonic films and Thundercats had a remake a few years ago (arguably better than the original too)

Mumm-Ra has less "toilet paper" flying around him during his transformation, but that's understandable because of the shortage.

Man..i love thundercats opening. Whenever i hear it, my skin feels like ants are crawling all over me. I also love gavan and neon genesis. These 3 openings are really the most kickass since the invention of tv. These three are the goat. And what a fantastic job youve done for this recreation. Far cooler then the recent strawberry thunder kittens i seen but cant unseen on tv
The musical score of Thundercats 80's was magic. Really set the tone of the series.
Its incredible how kids shows back in the day had amazing music intros. This sure brings backs memories. Well done.
This one is probably one of the best intros to any show ever. Its captures the mood and experience of the show. It primes your body and mind of what to expect in the next 30minutes
Well you havent seen Japanese kids movies back in 80s
I was just telling my daughter that while showing her my DVDs. I basically said that the theme songs is what helped make some of these cartoons popular
yeah Pokémon intro can go suck it!
I used to enjoy the opening just as much as the actual show.
Indiegogo my dude. I’ll throw down some money. Don’t let this die.
Absolutely beautiful. Respect
Someone make this happen, I'm down for a thundercats film.
Someone send this video to Netflix and tell them to toss $$$$ at this person to make episodes! Id watch this for sure! 🙌🏼
So they can make a remake that is “more inclusive”, politically correct and then shit all over our childhoods? No thanks bud, fuck Netflix.
This is probably the most remarkable homage to the Cats ever. Well done! I think we all felt the magic, we all heard the roar. You are very talented
I LOVE THIS. As an animator and filmmaker myself I think this is one of the best 2D to 3D remake I've ever seen. I like how you gave the Thundercats title at the end a sorta yellowish tint to give it an old film-ish feel. Feel the magic, hear the roar man!!
Oh my god, it even fits perfectly in time with the track. It's like an exact 1:1 with the original, this is beyond dedication.
Now that you've given a taste of what's possible. We want the complete series, nothing less.
@Jocko Mofo snarf snarf
Bro this gave me chills. So well done man honestly I'm tired of reboots I would pay to see original Thundercats updated like this.
What I love about this so much is you can see how much love for the original cartoon you have... it's such a respectful effort. Amazing work.
Kids today will never know just how great cartoon theme songs were.
back when the entire budget went into the opening
True, Silverhawks had a great Guitar Solo
No they won’t
I’m 17 now and I’m so glad my dad got me to watch it with him when I was younger. It’s rare to see modern cartoons that have that much heart put into the opening. I might be a modern teen but I live for older cartoons like Thundercats.
Through the magic of TH-cam and the fore sight of parents that show them, yes they will.
This is the greatest intro to a cartoon ever.
yes it is.....many come close....but nothing i have ever seen in animation has ever topped this intro.....Batman the animated series has a masterful intro...but it does'nt get the adrenaline going like this ...not even close...this is TOTALLY the greatest cartoon intro ever...and it has one of the best theme songs ever as well
No this is crap. This is so horrible. They look terrible. The original was so much better.
I grew up watching this cartoon. This is garbage
@@keithmorrison9372 you are an idiot.
This is a fan made intro. Not produced by any major studio. It is a bit raw but not bad. With more budget it can be upgraded for sure. That being said if you didn't like it have some respect for this person who made it. What have you done? This short video is wayyy better than that stupid thundercats roar reboot. All in all. If you have nothing good to say please don't say anything.
#FACTS
Congrats on the Cheetah movement’s. Her original animation stand up until today.
Nobody puts cheetarah in the corner
And longer hair with more volume, looks too short and too slick compared to original.
Dont you love critics :P
Lol, yeah, Cheetah was one of the first "waifu" crushes I had as a kid. Her and Evil-Lynn.
@@michaelespinosa9168 hahahahahahahaha Made my day!!
Spectacular. Using this same level of CGI, remake every original episode, and I would watch then all. Just brilliant.
The Thundercats have the single greatest cartoon intro of all-time! They definitely captured its essence.
Great job.
Ghostbusters is the only one that u could argue mayne better
There were a few he man was up there with Thundercats. One of the defining terms was the creativity, humour and background music
In matter of Cartoons Silverhawks is very close to this one. But then, it existed something called "Pegasus fantasy"
I have to throw a mention to the opening for Gargoyles... but there's no way I'm gonna say that either is better than the other. Just worth bringing up in the same league
Xmen animated dude
This is Beyond Dope.... Does anyone Remember "SilverHawks"!?!
I'm not the only one? 0.0 I've been asking that question for 20 years and everyone looks at me like I'm crazy...
Sure do bud... Hope to see them old classics on the big screen...centurions, he man, swat kats
Sure do!
yess..
Dude...you must do Silver Hawks!...please I beg you...🙏
"....made with nothing but respect and admiration for the original series."
When I saw the video title, I said to myself, "why would someone do this, the opening is perfect and already has the best animation of the whole show"... I'm glad I clicked and watched anyway, because this is f'ing phenomenal. Really great work.
I don't know why, but this got me very emotional.
Didn't realize till now how much I needed to see work of this sort being done on Thundercats.
If Netflix can do War for Cybertron, they can hire this man and give him the money and a team to make a proper Thundercats series!
This NEEDS to happen!
I know right gave this man a job he's has something respect for what he's doing & loves it 👍♥️
When fans make better then pro designers, thx so much for this, this could clean up our eyes from the horrendous new TC show!
Glad you enjoyed my take on it
New? It was years ago
@@craigbeard4614 I think he's referring to Thundercats Roar (aka Ben10-Cats)

Thank you for this . You just took me back to my childhood i wish you will make the episodes. This looks amazing
As impressive as that cartoon series was, I never did get into it, but I always respect it's originality. Seeing devotion for things like this that are dearly loved by others, as you've shown here with your hard labor, is what keeps me from abandoning TH-cam entirely. Terrific, Mr. Booth!
Omg this is BRILLIANT. Im in fanboy heaven. Next up: Silverhawks and Tigersharks please!
I support the motion!!!
Second that
Also Mask and voltron
100% full support
Jayce and Wheeled Warriors!!
I mean I'm a 40 year old man, but like this is EXACTLY how my child brain rendered those awesome 2D cells from the OG series in my brain 😁
Amazing recreation.
@Robd1 replies Netflix Optimus Prime was a lame at first. Truly disappointing
When are the big movie studios going to see that Thundercats is perfect material for a reboot first a movie to explain the backstory and then a full blown action packed serie....oh and give this guy top dollar to oversee the project, this remade is frigging amazing!!!!! lets hope Warner Bros. is smart enough to do that!!
We wait this jewerly in cinema, hope to be soon.
Why bother? Nowadays any reboot or first try at launching a new movie franchise will just be woke sjw garbage.
@@fxranger326 how exactly thundercats would do that? and who told you to judge before anything happens? isn't that contradictory? too much fox news , my boy. Remember that it is not a real news outlet.
@@Ralkila
Have you seen the woke sjw bs Hollywood is pushing?
@@fxranger326 Such as?
Seriously though, Mumm-Ra scared the crap out of me as a kid 😂😂😂
This brought a tear to my eye. A modern twist on a classic without ruining what makes the original great. Nostalgia is a powerful thing.
Thank you!
Bruh, this is more than just “a little bit carried away”, this could introduce a new generation to ThunderCats!
That has to be the best CGI/updated version of Thundercats ever. Fantastic
OMG, that's incredible. They should hire you do re-make the entire series. I'd watch that
Too bad the original voice overs will not be involved 😢😢😢 our childhood is dying!!!!
“Sword of Omens… give me sight BEYOND sight!”… man this was awesome! Makes me miss the cartoon
I felt the magic and the roar. IN-FREAKIN-CREDIBLE!!!
Late to this party, but one things for sure, this remade opening is TOTALLY worthy of the legendary Thundercats Intro. Great job sir.
AMAZING. There’s a whole lot of nostalgia right there. Brilliant talent. I take my hat off to you sir.
Thanks for the amazing nostalgia Kick 👍

HELL YES!!!! Just found this and DAMN! Thank you for the perfect animation on Cheetarah. I LOVE her scene and I was afraid in CGI, it would look too slow in her run animation, but DAMN did you nail it!!!!! Thanks for your work. You did my heart proud and at 45 and a retired soldier, I NEEDED something, I didn't know it was the reworking of Thundercats opening. LOL. BAD ASS!!!
