    Admit it. ThunderCats was awesome and the music was legendary.
    Bernie Hoffer composed, in my opinion, the best theme an 80's cartoon ever had. Not only that, he created wonderful themes for the indivdual characters on the show. I like a bit of leitmotif me.
    So this is my tribute to Bernie and ThunderCats. I've made it a medley of the various character themes as well as the title theme.
    A variation of this track is currently being used as the theme for ThunderCatsLair.org's ThunderCast podcast. Check it out at www.thundercats...
    Based on themes written by Bernie Hoffer.
    Arranged by OminousVoice

    P.S. Contrary to recent rumour, James Lipton DID NOT compose the ThunderCats theme. It was an elaborate hoax perpetuated by cracked.com

      I'd radically reconcieve Snarf and make him the narrative key. In my mind he'd be a human scientist who got inexplicably transported to Thundera as it is collapsing and aids in the escape to Third Earth. The ThunderCats swear to protect this weird fleshy thing, and cloak him in furs to disguise his alien identity. Their actually language is unpronouceable, but he learns to inderstand it and translates their identities into what they resemble from our earth. Think 13th Warrior. The only word he is able to adequately pronounce is "Snarf" so that's what he is called and instructed to say if questioned. He serves as audience surrogate recounter to us of Lion-O and the ThunderCats deeds much like the Mako character in Conan. I'd cast Benedict Wong (Doctor Strange) or Peter Dinklage (which would also account for his diminutive size more immediately). Someone who we can actually take seriously.
      So suddenly the annoying mascot is integral and really interesting in his own journey while being our point-of-view translator of the mythology.
      That's the first essential in cracking the anthramorphized silliness of ThunderCats for a more plausiblly realistic feature epic saga franchise rendering.
      Bring in David Twohy and William Monahan to iron out the screenplay.
      Secure a top vfx house to deliver grounded detailed photo-realistoc cgi environments and character animation like MPC or Weta.
      Next I'd go down the list vying for a proper genre filmmaker who could usher this vision in with tactful skill and style:
      George Miller
      Jon Favreau
      Gore Verbinski
      Zack Snyder
      Guillermo Del Toro
      Peter Jackson
      John McTiernan
      Kevin Reynolds
      Martin Campbell
      Wes Ball
      Francis Lawrence
      Rupert Sanders
      Joseph Kosinski

      Roland Emmerich

That's what he gets for hanging out with those goddamn berbils. They actually stole the Sword of Omens because he couldn't pay them. And don't get me started on Panthro.

Not to mention the sword of fucking omens... I mean yeah, Liono sported a sketchy outfit, but it was only to show off is amazing lion-human physique am I right. I mean he left a place in his torso just for you to see his abs. If that's not badass I don't know what it is.

    This is brilliant! I love what you did with every theme. Especially Tygra’s, you reworked the one awkward moment of the original themes. Perfect idea starting out with Jaga’s regal theme, then moving on to the adventurous Thundercats! Then Tygra! Cheetara’s was probably the least changed. Panthro’s without the funkiness is a powerful melody, serene power! Just like Panthro himself. Then wrapping it up with the outro ending! It’s like storytelling through music. Beautiful work, wouldn’t change a thing! I wish this was the approach a Thundercats movie would take.
