Did you watch the actual show though? It was so bad it was almost laughable.. scratch that I did laugh. But I am kinda biased, based on my profile pic you can probably tell what my preference is. Although this is definitely one of the greatest american theme songs period
That's because the intro was produced by Topcraft, a japanese company, many of who's animators went on to form studio Ghibli, who didn't work on the rest of the show, unfortunately.
It was false advertising. The show's content themselves were typically slow herky jerky motion. The intro was designed to sucker us into watching. They knew what they were doing, the pricks.
Cause she was the adult female of the group. Little boys had crush on adult women more so than little girls. Admit it , no boy ever cared about Wily Kitt
One of the best intro ever. I still hear this intro and get all pumped up. Lol, 0:19 When i was kid I remember looking up as if i was looking at the symbol in the sky.
It comes from an era of amazing intros and theme songs, and managed to be the best. The 80s were like Salusa Secundus of cartoon intros and this one came out on top.
MumRa: "ancients spirits of evil, transform this decaying form into MumRa, The Inmortaaaaaal!!!" Pikachu: "Pika, pika!" Parents: "OMG Pokemon is so satanic!"
To this day, the animation (especially the Intro) for something made over 30 years ago looks amazing. Now we got this reject Thundercats Roar crap coming next year. I thought it was a parody cartoon when I saw that. ╰_╯
Crashing through the skies comes a fearsome cry COBRA! cobra, COBRA! cobra, COBRA! cobra Armies of the night, evil taking flight COBRA! cobra, COBRA! cobra, COBRA! Cobra Nowhere to run, nowhere to hidepanic spreading COBRA! cobra ----- mwahahahaa!
In my humble opinion, this is still of the greatest opening themes of all time. I remember jumping all over the sofas in our living room because this used to get me so amped. Such a simpler time that I am forever grateful for.
The 2011 reboot at first had me rolling my eyes, but it was not as bad as I was expecting. Pissed me off that they did one season then axed it. It had great potential to be a (ugh... I can't believe I am actually saying this) a reasonable reboot.
El mejor intro de todos los tiempos, no entiendo porqué hasta la fecha no han producido una película con estos fabulosos personajes que nos cautivaron en plena década de los 80.
Justo por qué como está la animación actual podrían hacer una falta de respeto total a la serie, como ejemplos de ello el terrible reebot que fue Thundercats roarh
Porque lo han intentado varias veces y no han podido replicar la magia. Lo mas cercano fue el anime que produjo warner bros y que desgraciadamente terminó cancelando debido a un negocio que tenia con Lego. Cartoon Network terminó haciendo una completa blasfemia con Thundercats Roar y la indignación de los fans fue tal que terminaron cancelando.
Men having a manly body and women having a feminime body are considered bad, inappropriate and offensive things nowadays. Men and women are also not allowed to act or dress manly or feminime anymore.
Ice King I was referring to the original and the new reboot. The 2011 one was pretty epic, too bad when that one came out people complained about the art style too saying it was “gay ass wannabe anime”. People just can’t be happy about anything smh
Igor Those idiots don't know it was animated by an actual Japanese studio, Studio 4℃. The original was animated by Japanese studios as well, those studios were Topcraft, the predecessor to Studio Ghibli, and Pacific Animation Corporation, which became Walt Disney Animation Japan. Kids these days, am I right?
Rab lablook Well the reality of this situation is that the original episodes of the 80s are still no where near the animation quality of the reboot. Do you really think that actual episodes match the quality of this intro?
In terms of this intro, it is great. But I am not afraid to admit that the 2011 reboot had better quality in terms of the actual episode's animation, action and drama, and to this day still far surpassing Thundercats Roar's quality.
my parents knew that if i was interrupted watching Thundercats, that i could've suffered a nervous breakdown...... i was left in peace to watch it thank god.
Joseph Gillespie I noticed that in most 80s cartoons...amazing intros with jawdropping animation..then you see the show and it's not half as cool as the intro...
Dude this gets you so hyped!!! That digital mechanical cat Roar, the drums, the sick electric guitar riffs, when is song Just pulses and drives forward with catchy lyrics everything just it's a masterpiece!! and that slick animation and that part at the end when liono absorbs a blast from mumra with the eye of thundara YESSSSS! I am so lucky to be born in the 80s kids of this generation have absolutely no idea what they missed
Yep. The centerpiece of the whole intro, as it should be. She's the most beautiful character on the show, and her power is the most visually arresting.
Ah yes thundercats... The magic of the 80's clever writing....where you almost never see them doing the stuff you see in the intro, and when you finally do see it--it disappears as quickly as it comes.
I just had to come and watch this today after I saw that atrocious upcoming 2019 trailer! I feel so blessed watching this growing up instead of what kids will watch today.
Vagelis Stefanopoulos Be Thankful. Kids didn't watch Thundercats 2011 and Kids AND Fans of Thundercats won't watch that new show either. It will be cancelled and then forgotten about.
I am too young to have seen this show during it's original airing, but I watched it on Cartoon network as a kid and it is near and dear to my heart. Thundercats Hoooooooo!!!
Its 2023 and this opening is in my opinion the best animated intro ever produced. It has really dynamic sequences, its beautifully drawn and colored and comes backed with an iconic music theme. Its a masterpiece.
Thundercats Roar is absolute GARBAGE!!!!!!! CN please remove Thundercats Roar and put this on instead. Kids today need to see good cartoons! I pictured Gumball from The Amazing World of Gumball saying that he has to go bleach his eyeballs!
@@bonesnharmony3422 Yes, it was ahead if it's time. I think the idea was to create a perfect looking intro to attract viewers. But skimp on budget for the actual show.
Nací el año 2000 y esto me impresiona ver como algo es tan épico y luego lo suelen arruinar unos años después cuando tenia 6 años vi su intro por primera vez
I was born in 1994 and saw this classic 1980s show in the early 2000s but its better than any other cartoons and animes I ever seen, its my most favorite animated show of all times, nothing will change that, Thunder Cats Hoo!
33 years later and that intro still hypes me up. 80's and early 90's were the golden age for Saturday morning and daily cartoons.
That's how you do an intro.
I was 1980 I remember watching this in 1980s when I was young from Ireland
Hell yeah
Never did like thunder cats as a show...but I always watched the intro, it was just too badass.
Wrrraaaaahhhhhhhhh! Perfectly describes how I feel about my coworkers on some days.
Yessir
Seriously, this animation is better than most of the shit we see today.
Did you watch the actual show though? It was so bad it was almost laughable.. scratch that I did laugh. But I am kinda biased, based on my profile pic you can probably tell what my preference is. Although this is definitely one of the greatest american theme songs period
I meant the animation for the intro.
I remeber seeing this for the first time thinking it was gonna be badass but then getting an animatic for the actual show.
That's because the intro was produced by Topcraft, a japanese company, many of who's animators went on to form studio Ghibli, who didn't work on the rest of the show, unfortunately.
It was false advertising. The show's content themselves were typically slow herky jerky motion. The intro was designed to sucker us into watching. They knew what they were doing, the pricks.
I showed this to my six year old son, and he was in awe. So looks like we'll be watching Thundercats from on
You should win the parenting award.
And don't forget the Dragonball sagas...my kids loved them.
I have a three year old. I'm gonna start him early.😘
Can’t beat the 80s best cartoons! I was more into Voltron.
Showing this show to a new generation? I’m proud of you.
The coolest font to exist in the entire history of mankind.
and the coolest logo
I've just bought a thundercats neon logo sign for my man cave off of eBay. Looks great!😁
Yes Im only 11 but i jused to watch This with my dad when i was 6 and then i mean the old series
Admit it, sometime in the past, we ALL had a crush on Cheetara.
Cause she was the adult female of the group. Little boys had crush on adult women more so than little girls. Admit it , no boy ever cared about Wily Kitt
you damn right, sir
She was ok, but I was in love with Pumyra.
Yes
I fucking admit it.
One of the best intro ever. I still hear this intro and get all pumped up. Lol, 0:19 When i was kid I remember looking up as if i was looking at the symbol in the sky.
Lmfao
And I thought I was the only kid that did that!!
Best intro ever
It comes from an era of amazing intros and theme songs, and managed to be the best. The 80s were like Salusa Secundus of cartoon intros and this one came out on top.
We had an awesome childhood
Am I right or am I right👍
Never lose that feeling!
Shh my child, I will not let roar ruin you
_not today_
MumRa: "ancients spirits of evil, transform this decaying form into MumRa, The Inmortaaaaaal!!!"
Pikachu: "Pika, pika!"
Parents: "OMG Pokemon is so satanic!"
Lmao! Brilliant!
When did people call Pokemon Satanic?
GinHindew110 wasn't is "the ever living"
It*
GinHindew110 Lmao! So true! My mom banned me from watching Pokemon and Power Rangers when I was younger because she said they were evil lol
Best fucking intro of all cartoons, period. Animated by Japanese animation studio Pacific Animation Corporation.
i agree
To this day, the animation (especially the Intro) for something made over 30 years ago looks amazing. Now we got this reject Thundercats Roar crap coming next year.
I thought it was a parody cartoon when I saw that. ╰_╯
Best cartoon intro and theme ever. They don't make them like this anymore!
Crashing through the skies comes a fearsome cry
COBRA! cobra, COBRA! cobra, COBRA! cobra
Armies of the night, evil taking flight
COBRA! cobra, COBRA! cobra, COBRA! Cobra
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hidepanic spreading
COBRA! cobra
-----
mwahahahaa!
Never again for sure
They do in Japan. Watch anime. The Overlord is one of the best with a completely original protagonist.
The MegaMan cartoon intro is pretty hype too! 😤
Batman TAS and Batman Beyond have good intro and theme.
I'm 48 years old and Mumm-ra's scream still sends chills down my spine...
Yah that ain't going away 😂
Same 😂
This intro still gives me goosebumps. This IS my childhood. Had all the action figures too.❤
Getting chills as im watching. I had forgotten how much fun the world was once was
In my humble opinion, this is still of the greatest opening themes of all time. I remember jumping all over the sofas in our living room because this used to get me so amped.
Such a simpler time that I am forever grateful for.
Even at 40, I still feel the pump when I watch this old intro.
I am crying in pain. Just saw the thunder cats roar. So sad
Me too, haha
Yeah! Such a stupid age of reboots!
The 2011 reboot at first had me rolling my eyes, but it was not as bad as I was expecting. Pissed me off that they did one season then axed it. It had great potential to be a (ugh... I can't believe I am actually saying this) a reasonable reboot.
Disappointing it was, i tell you...

por que harian una porqueria. y mancharia el legado
Porque los van a destruí con tantos cambios que les haran a leono lo volverán negro y a mujer la harán lesbiana y meterán a la comunidad LGBT
Porque lo han intentado varias veces y no han podido replicar la magia.
Lo mas cercano fue el anime que produjo warner bros y que desgraciadamente terminó cancelando debido a un negocio que tenia con Lego.
Cartoon Network terminó haciendo una completa blasfemia con Thundercats Roar y la indignación de los fans fue tal que terminaron cancelando.
RIP To Arthur and Jules. This one of my fav shows of all time and Silverhawks
Who else keeps putting it on repeat? No matter how times I go away, I keep coming back to this intro.
Back in the day when the intros were a million times more awesome than the actually show and its slug-like pacing.
I rewatched some episodes and it wasn't too bad. Animations weren't very good but the things that happened were quirky in a sort of respectable way.
The Golden age of cartoons saw this reign supreme
Omega Supreme from the transformers agrees
I had to come here after seeing what they've done with the new series.
This makes me feel better.
Una de las mejores series animadas de todos los tiempos, que buenos recuerdos me traen.
MONOS ANimados para niños de verdad, nos las mierdas de cristal ofendidas de hoy en dia.
la intro de esta y los halcones galácticos son geniales
@@QueenKlausSalvatorePetrova los alcones galácticos son Gatchaman en su versión original?

Scott Pickering i did
ssjfuturetrunks93 same
Me. This new show is an insult to my cat Snarf who passed away recently.
Yeah that is what I'm thankful for. Hopefully this shit show won't disturb his eternal sleep.
Oh shut up
Goosebumps all over, again. Never failed this 80`s Cartoons.
I want a movie so bad!!
Just don't let Michael Bay get his hands on it
maybe bryan singer can direct it
lol at dont let Michel Bay do it
There was a movie. Just a direct-to-TV kind in 1985.
It has explosions tho... lol.
or Paul Anderson
Best cartoon opening theme song ever!
bruhh i was born in 2004 not even close when this was aired on TV. and just the intro makes me wanna watch the whole thing
My dad had showed me this when I was 6 😓I thank him for this
Came here after witnessing the horrible new reboot which I still can't believe exists
FUCKING MILLENNIIALS.
Goddamn tumblrcats man

Go Thundercats! Today's cartoons can't compare to this!

Grew up in Bangladesh in the 80s. Remember waking up to this on weekends. The theme alone got me so hyped!!!
I just came back to remember when Cartoons were good and not a mockery of itself.
Millenials don't know nothin' bout running home from school to catch your cartoon....
Aki recordando miniñez 46 años despues . Como no teniamos tele en ese entonses buscava alguna casa q tuviera de lejos lo veia

OMG brought me straight back. That's a cartoon
Best. Animation. Intro. EVER.

Bless your wise parents
Very good you're very right about it
I think this was just one of those shows that blew all the animation budget on the intro....but hell i loved this show all the same as a kid.

THE MOST EPIC INTRO OF ALL THE TIME!
Hell yeah it is still this day 😊😊
Growing up in the 90's was a gift from Heaven.
Pasan los años y esta intro es la mas electrizante de todos los tiempos !! Algún día vamos a ver la película que nos merecemos
I love my grandmother so freaking much for recording this to me so I could witness this awesomeness when growing up in the 90's
De las mejores series y los mejores años maravillosos.
Now compare the "Thunder cats Thunder cats gooo" intro to the new intro of midget Lion-O just walking on screen... No cool music...no nothing
Best intro ever at the time. Way ahead of it's time. Loved this show so much. Xx
The most bad ass intro ever!
Panthro with the nunchuks and killer kick= epic
Cheetara... I think deep down I watched the cartoon just for her lol.
If you were like me you were in love with Cheetara haha
I just saw the 2018 version of thundercats, holy cow it’s so baaaaaad!
0:35 Of all the Thundercats ,Cheetara's animation in this intro was the most awesome.
Yep. The centerpiece of the whole intro, as it should be. She's the most beautiful character on the show, and her power is the most visually arresting.
Nothing ever will come close to this epic intro! Animation kicks ass and song is badass!
This intro is a masterpiece of animation!
I am 47 and this still gets me pumped up. This is the best intro EVER. Silver hawks comes in second for me.
Ah yes thundercats...
The magic of the 80's clever writing....where you almost never see them doing the stuff you see in the intro, and when you finally do see it--it disappears as quickly as it comes.
Animation wasn't cheap back in the 80's.
***** agreed, just check AKIRA from th 80’s or Ghost in the Shell as well
TheGamingTurret Go to hell. Thx.

So awesome! Ever since I was a little girl I wanted to be Cheetara. She was fast strong and powerful. Love the Thunder Cats!
Incredible animation, music and style. Full of energy

This is the most epic cartoon intro I have EVER SEEN! All these years later still nothing to match.
THUNDERCATS - exploding on screen, when i was a child, i never missed a single EP, just wish they make a movie out of this great cartoon :D
I just watched the first two episodes of Thundercats Roar and I had to watch this intro to cleanse my brain.
Thundercats Roar is absolute GARBAGE!!!!!!! CN please remove Thundercats Roar and put this on instead. Kids today need to see good cartoons! I pictured Gumball from The Amazing World of Gumball saying that he has to go bleach his eyeballs!
Kids in Greece diidn 't do homework when Thundercats were on the tv. Favourite 80s show ever. I believe not only in Greece then, but in all Europe....
BEST INTRO EVER!
Its even better than the much newer 3d version. And this is 1985
30 years later, and this intro still gets me fired up.
i think cheetara was my first crush too. even at 5 or 6 years old, i knew she was hot
In the span of 1 minute 16 seconds, the 2018 abomination has been slain by superior production quality.
80's and 90's cartoons are super awesome! glad i grew up in those periods of time! plus the music are iconic! miss my childhood!
I remember when Cartoon Network use to play this. Use to be one of my favorites.
Holycrap! What is this incarnation of a cartoon i must watch everytime its appears on my television set. My 7 year-old self.
