    I'm so glad you're doing DVD review/disambiguation videos again. That was the reason I subscribed to you all those years back. :) (Of course, I definitely understand that you're free to film and post whatever you want on your channel. I just personally only have interest for your in-depth DVD videos).
    I grew up in the 90's, but I still enjoyed Thundercats when it came on Toonami. Even though I was a girl, I would always pretend I was Lion-O. Haha.

    Great closer look of the sets Sean.
    The anointment trials of Lion-O was supposed to air in a 5 part mini series one after another but for some reason that didn't happen and the same thing with when the DVDs were being put together.
    They were shown in order when Cartoon Network aired them many years later, CN also re-ordered the listing of episodes from episode 5 to episode 65 to give a more chronological order where Day One of the trial was the 19th episode instead of the 37th episode.

    Instantly gets my thumbs up. You are great, dude. I feel bad for taking so long to find your channel, although I've only just begun to collect officially.
    Thank you so much for these vids. I can confidently say that if you love this show, pick up the four volumes with lenticulars instead of the complete. If your worried about space, then obviously go for the complete, but if you have the space, the four volume set is so much more appealing.

    Our version has 3 slimline cases in each boxset, cool review man, grew up with Thundercats, makes for very nostalgic viewing, btw no episodes after Thundercats Ho the movie were shown on British tv so there are a lot of episodes I had never seen before getting these sets

    Just a question: You collect many version of the TMNT shows but you didn't pick up the new version of the Thundercats.... Have you seen any or all the episodes of the 2011 show? Im guessing since you don't have it that if you saw it you didn't like it. I quite enjoyed the new show and love the appearances of the different Thundercats' characters throughout the season and even references to other shows as well. It's really well done and it shows that the people that made it have a love for this franchise.

  • @David315842
    @David315842 9 лет назад

    Sean your rant is justified. Some people who like cartoons, just don't get it that sometimes broadcast masters and mono are the best they're going to get. ;) Another great disambiguation episode. Thanks for mentioning the lack of the Exodus movie with exclusive footage, I happened to keep my copy on video (Released by the Video Collection in the UK). Very interesting to hear that The Unholy Alliance had no sound, it was fixed for the UK release on DVD, which sadly did not have the lenticular covers and just standard pictures of the Thundercats logo. Also Thundercats Ho not being part of ANY broadcast season, that's just wrong. Warner probably put the last seasons together to try and compete with the two 65 episode seasons He-Man had?

    • @David315842
      @David315842 9 лет назад

      Wikipedia has Thundercats Ho! listed as it's own season and that there's five seasons, which makes a little more sense to me personally. :) And you won't have to worry about the DVD's. Usually Warner Bros. are VERY good with keeping stuff in print, once it's been released.

    Amazon still streams the version without the music. I picked up the lenticular cover version of the S1 V1 box set, but it has the corrected disc in it. But after watching both, I have to say that I just prefer the version with the music. The one without definitely seems odd. Plus, you mentioned the ominous silence as the mutants enter Mum-Ra's temple...well, that scene lacks any music in both versions, so you get the creepy feeling as the scene intended. Bottom line, I wouldn't worry about tracking down the version without the music, as I have been trying to do. Oh, and I have some lenticular box sets that are not embossed, and I have a couple without lenticular covers that are also not embossed. Only the S1 V1 set I have has embossed lettering. You cannot go wrong with these set. TC is one of the best cartoons of the 80's and my childhood. Some say it doesn't hold up. I don't know what show they were watching. It definitely is a great series, even today. Plus, the animation house that became Studio Ghibli supposedly worked on it, so go watch it over and over and enjoy it forever now on DVD!

      The new set is a straight up repackage. lt's the exact same contents and transfers as this set. The only difference is they moved the extras to a bonus disc.

    I just missed out on Thundercats growing up or at least I don't remember it too well at all. I was a TMNT and Transformers kid mainly and both Thunder Cats and He-Man passed me by. In the case of He-Man I'm glad personally, never liked the look of that show.
    I'm in the UK so I don't know if Thundercats just wasn't quite as big or what. I did though strangely enough own alot of the LJN toy action figures, like Lion-O and Mumm-Ra I remember really well. But I don't remember the show at all. It's weird.

      Thundercats was quite popular here Blaize, but the BBC only aired Season 1 up till the early 90's, the Thundercats Ho movie was the only other thing we got and that was only a VHS release and yes the toys were distributed here by LJN's UK branch; Rainbow Toys.

    Lets get this sorted...
    PAL is a TV standard.. DVD is a Region Standard. You can't mix the two. but you said "region 2 is pal"
    Without assuming people use a multi-region player, or code free player, your basically assuming in Australia i can play Region 2 DVD's by default

    • @zaranyzerak
      @zaranyzerak  2 часа назад

      Not sure how that was confusing, but okay. I completely understand all of that as I've been working with video since the 80s. Apologies if I didn't explain it adequately in this particular video from a decade ago, I thought I was pretty clear on the distinction between Region coding and video standards. I'm usually quite specific about that sort of thing because they are often confused or misunderstood. Such as when people see a DVD is Region Free they automatically assume it will work in their player no matter what, but nope - not if it's a PAL DVD you're trying to play in an NTSC player or vice-versa. Needs to be your video standard AND region coding (or region free and your video standard) if it's going to work. I discuss the differences and distinction between them quite frequently in my content and make a sincere effort to be clear on the differences.

      The masters are the broadcast quality master tapes. They are not VHS tapes, they are broadcast quality tapes which are much higher resolution than VHS. DVD is more than double the resolution of VHS, so even taken from the same master tapes the quality is substantially better than VHS could ever be.
