There's a difference between remaking a show and making a new series of it. From what little I know of that Japanese transformers cartoon (the one where Optimus Prime was a firetruck or something), THAT was a remake. Take the old premise and characters, change them around, pretend things happened differently. Transformers series' like Beast Wars were not remakes. Beast Wars didn't pretend the original series never happened and reinvent all the old characters. It was a new storyline with (mostly) new characters that tried to tie in with the original, not replace it.
Never did watch Thundercats, so I have no strong feelings about this news. But the new show premise does sound retarded as hell. If you're going to remake something, at least don't make it SUCK.
Though maybe there's
worse ways to remake a show.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
