- Many of you probably wouldn’t consider Thundercats to be among the best of 80s cartoon shows.
Over the years, Thundercats has developed a beloved fandom, and people have appreciated the relevance of the content even for adults. For those of you who are unaware of the premise, it was about a feline-like humanoid species called Thundercats, who had fled their planet and landed on Third Earth. They tried to make it their home, but their arch-enemies follow, and it all boils down to a final showdown! We had some entertaining villains here, and in this video, we will look into the deadliest ones of the lot.

Thundercats was one of THE 80s cartoons. Definitely in my top 5 of adventure cartoons.
Thundercats was one of the absolute best 80's cartoons ever
Silverhawks too!!!
@@scottymitchell6708 you think
*Best cartoons ever* not just 80's
Best cartoon EVER! still watch it all the time
@@scottymitchell6708 Netflix is developing a silverhawks show, I can’t wait!
80's Thundercats was really pretty popular for the time............you had to be there.
Ah my friend i indeed was there.
I was there and was there for SilverHawks and transformers G1
I can't even remember all the names of all the awesome 80's cartoons!!! I got some late 70's too
@@Hello_Fuckers0 I come from 1970's Battle of the Planets on up. I'm right there with you.
@@timothyrountree9760 right on bro 🤘🏼
Lion-o looks fantastic and Cheetara looks beautiful as usual. Mummra looks frightfully good.
I always wondered if they were trying to setup a romance between Lion-o and Cheetara despite the age difference or maybe Lion-o would fall for Willa of the Warrior women.
@@biguy617
Well 1. since Lion-o’s pod broke and he aged and the others didn’t Cheetara would be close to his age. I know about a 10 year gap but still... but I think their relationship is more of a guardian and prince type. And plus Tigera already has eyes for Cheetara. And with Willa, there’s that species difference thing.
I was pissed when they canceled the 2011 run. It was a great story. A new tale on their origin.
Canceled that series and replaced it with that other cartoon that I will not mention 😐😐
What makes me more upset is reading the future plans and storylines that probably will never come to fuention. For example, a backstory of Cheetara where takes off her ankle weights to reveal she can move fast enough to travel through time. I would have love to have seen how the rest would have played out.

I loved Thundercats grew up with it both in the 80s, and on Toonami in 1998 when they ran it, the characters on both good side, and bad were great. A great voice cast, It had good music, and some good animation for that time. At times deep story arcs like Lion-O's Anointment, ThunderCats - Ho! though a movie was later made into a multi part episode.
The reason this cartoon was great is that it made the other cartoons of the time seem campy by comparison and actually made us think a wee bit... and a lot of us had Cheetarah fantasies.
I think it has good animation for its time and it seems to be one of the few cartoons with an actual storyline.
I loved ThunderCats so much! Between them and TMNT I was set! Saturday morning cartoons were the only reason to get up early on the weekend. My last name is literally "Lyons" so I felt a connection. I hope they do some kind of reboot but hopefully they don't fuck it up like they've done with other ones
To me, Slithe owes his design to both Gollum and The Goblins from Rankin Bass' The Hobbit. Not only was he animated and designed by the same studio( Top Craft with Ted Wolf/ Tsuguchi Kubo) but has their facial traits and body build!
Thundercats was bloody brilliant, still waiting for the live action movie!!!!
MV, this is going to be interesting
As long as Michael Bay stays as far away as possible from a live action Thundercats movie I'll watch it.
Jay Jay Abrams gonna make it.
Mum-Ra is the good guy protecting his planet.
Thundercats are invasive space cats.
Chetara loves Tigra, Liono is sad until he finds out Tigra is bi so they had a three way
@@sirlorddoctormajorphd3016 You left out the crap cgi and Megan Fox's ass
@@devilghostface8798 and the mutants are the good guys because they’re a diverse group while thunder cats are problematic cause they’re only cats with a patriarchy system.
Rumor has it that Adam WIngard is bringing a cgi version to theaters in 2023.
There is something missing about Mumm-ra's weakness not explained here. Mumm-ra become weak and restored to his original form if he sees his reflection, either from the mirror, sword of omens, or other reflecting surfaces.
As to reflect his true self and stop living in denial. 🤣 As a kid, I always felt that Mumra was that kid who got picked on too many times growing up and got fed up, so he joined the dark forces in their Hellish crusades to feel part of something bigger than himself, thus why he goes from a decripiped (sorry for typo) mummy to a massive lethal evil weapon of doom for those forces to use. 🤔 I always felt pity for him.
He also had a soft spot for Ma-Mutt and would give in if Ma-Mutt was threatened or placed in danger.
That is such a BS weakness, just to keep Mumm-ra from being too OP. How can the mightiest villain in the show be taken out by a make-up compact?!
@@munstrumridcully Agreed, women in denial wouldn't be turned off by a mirror. Accountability isn't done by perusing a mirror.
@@pscoolguy like when Lion-O stuffed Ma-Mutt in that tomb in the movie. WTF Lion? 😂
Thundercats is the best cartoon ever I'm still a fan and I'm in my 50s
Can't believe you left out MONGOR! The most terrifying and effective of them all. So terrifying was, that he was the personification of fear itself, and managed to defeat the TCs and even almost Lion-O. Also, I think Demolisher deserved a spot.
FYI, this show was actually more popular among children than people might know. It was down played in the media bc parents complained that Mummra and the mutants were introducing their children to the concepts of Satanism. The same reason why Dungeons and Dragons game and even the cartoon were being demonized. I remember having to sneak and watch Thundercats with my friends after school. We got caught, and we're made to watch reruns of Little House on the Prairie instead.😂
It was part of my cartoon block along with random stuff from hanble barbera: grape ape, captain cavemen and 2 different ghostbuster cartoons. my parents I don't think cared about the cartoon they had a thing about sound. especially my dad.
Thundercats did have a lot of imagery and symbolism from the occult, i can see why parents would have been worried
Are you kidding me! Thundercats was amazing! By far one of the best 80s cartoons!!
Thunder! Thunder! Thundercats Hooooooo! loved as a kid and still love it today
Thunder Cats was the best cartoon from the 80's. Better than He-man, Transformers n G.I Joe
This and silver hawks was a great 80’s cartoon
And brave star too
I’ll always get goosebumps from the intro.
I’ve heard that the Thundercats…
*…are LOOSE!*
I still watching most of the 80's cartoons show and tv shows on dvd, cause they are Culture classic.
I liked Thundercats better than Master's of the Universe. Definitely one of my favorite cartoons as a kid
The 2011 remake was pretty damn good. Far better than the travesty that came out a year or so ago.
Amen to that! Both points, ThunderCats Roar was a travesty of a show, more akin to a parody or pastiche than anything to do with any of the previous shows, heck the very _franchise_ itself!
If your interesting to continuing the next season of Thundercats 2011, ruclips.net/video/tYHS1rqTP74/видео.html
I used to run home from school to watch Thunder cats!! I even refused to start my homework until I watched it!! I now have the entire series on DVD.
Same🤣😅
Thundercats will always be my favorite
I had the pleasure of seeing both versions of this series and will forever be sorry that the latter ended on such a cliffhanger. Because I so wanted to know what came next. Had no idea it would be cancellation. Great job with the video.
We need an R rated live action thundercats movie, they are essentially evolved wild animals, imagine a scene where they get in touch with they're animal side and just start ripping the badguys apart
There to busy remaking films that suck lol
@@hankthetank1563 Indeed lol!😄
@@hankthetank1563 *their* off r they’re*
Next no that’s stupid as fuck they’re not I’ll repeat they’re NOT KILLERS and that’s the point 🤦♂️
Mumra alone seem to be a rated R villain too. Summoning ancient evil spirits and all. 🤔I know the Mummy movies made such things comical and all, but it can be quite dark.
GOT DAMN THAT WILL BE gruesome and very terrifying 😱
Just what I've been waiting for! Thank you! I was so exited about the heads up during your last live stream!👍👍👍👍
All these same voice actors went on to voice SilverHawks as well. I loved it equally as much as this show. MonStar was exactly like Mumra except space based. Same voice actor for sure Lol. You should do video on the SilverHawks. 🙂
Done!
The same animation and voice team had a third series, called TigerSharks, as well. They appeared on the screens of Mumm-Ra's pyramid ship in the 2011 reboot, which would make them a part of the ThunderCats/SilverHawks Universe. (Yes, the 'Hawks appeared there, too!)
@@jimjohnston5719 TigerSharks eh? Was not aware of those guys. Will certainly have to check them out. 🙃
I thought I was the only one who remembered SilverHawks that was an awesome one to
@@LilySteph1949 everyone seems to know the Thundercats but not a lot know of Silverhawks. I wouldn't say it was better than the TCs, but certainly a close 2nd in badassery points.
Love the thundercats, I also own the complete series on DVD. Would love to see a live action movie come out, just hope that it will stay true to the cartoon!!
First, let me thank you guys for putting out such AWESOME videos for all of us. This video was like all of your others meaning it DIDN'T DISAPPOINT!!! I wasn't really big on the remake of ThunderCats but the 80's OG ThunderCats was one of my favorite cartoons growing up!!! To this very day, I still collect Mumm-Ra
merch and memorabilia. My top two favorite 80's cartoon villains would have to be Mumm-Ra (of course) and Prime Evil from Filmations Ghostbusters. Like I said before, the video was absolutely STELLAR and your RUclips Channel is one of the BEST!!! Keep up the great work!!!
Thundercats classic 80s awesomeness
ThunderCats 2011 deserves love and a second season
It does, if your interesting to continuing the next season of Thundercats 2011, ruclips.net/video/tYHS1rqTP74/видео.html
we need a silver hawks live action movie as well as a whelled warriors movie and inhumanoids movie
They should do a Thundercats X Silverhawks
Silver Hawks was Awesome!
Live action does not work for these animated shows, it’s stupid and they always have to condense the story for a movie. A CGI or well animated series is much better.
Give it time...
Hell yeah!🤘🏼
10 Bizzare and Strange Powerpuff Girls villains my favorites were The Rowdyruff Boys still remember their first appearance
For me it was HIM. Lol
I miss Thundercats that was such an awesome show. Awesome video @Marvelous Videos.
Awesome video dude I still have the old original figures from back in the day on my shelf!😊
Good cannot exist without Evil. Fact
"As long as Evil exist. Mummra Lives!" Quoted
The 80’s cartoon Big 4:
•He-Man and motu.
•Transformers
•Thundercats
•G.I.Joe.
I just wish when people do videos like this they would do the research in order to pronounce the names correctly.
Me too.
This channel is DREADFUL for getting information right. It’s amateur
The remake was quite good.
2011?
The reboot was good. It just came on 1in the morning on Adult Swim. What kids we're the trying to sell this too?
@@amazingbro6723 Yes, the 2011 version was quite well done and wonderful overall, an excellent true successor to the 80's original. Infinitely better than Thunder Roar!
Thundercats was stellar! One of my favorites and Snarff was an awesome dragon\cat\lion thing.
Thundercats is one of the best shows ever & you forgot Mummra's weakness is seeing his own reflection.
To me, Thundercats was WAY better than "He-Man"! This video is bringing back some of my fonder memories of the 80s.
The narrator is wrong from the start Thundercats was way better than He-Man and the Masters of the Universe.
he just said it wasn't as popular as those others
and thundercats did not shove morals in our faces like other 80's cartoons did
@@greenrobot5 He also said many of us probably wouldn't consider Thundercats to be among the best of 80s cartoon shows.
I can agree, thundercats had a more quality animation then he-man 🤔
@@torquetheprisoner I loved the moral comments at the end,it kept a reminder to stay on the right path 😊not like now everything is immoral and going down Hill 🤔
He forgot about the Demolisher, The Enflamer, Driller and the Berserkers.
Don't forget about Zaxx.
You said driller hahahahahah
I can not believe he forgot Mongor who was the most terrifying looking villain.
Almost everyone did lol
I grew up loving Thundercats
Not true
Days ago completed my thundercats season one and two volumes dvd…binge watching all seasons….thundercats was the cartoon to watch in the 80s…biggest regret is not getting the thundercats figurines while growing up in the 80s…
Thundercats kicks Masters ass, Masters was too campy and didn't look as good.
Awesome video thanks
Mumm-Ra was one of the few villains that truly scared me as a child. They don't make them like that any more.
Very good.... I hope there's going to be a part 2 of this video. So many more villians to explore.
Hoooo!!!!!
Marvelous videos I’d love to see you do one of these on the ronin warriors enemies.
I love ThunderCats. 🧡🧡
The Demolisher to me was the hardest villian because he never give up, even defeating Mumma-Ra and Lion-O, Lion-O only won because he call the other Thundercats for help !.
My favourite toon series. Thank you for the video.
Loved both the 1985 and 2011 series of the Thundercats. Keep in mind thundrainium weakens them even as mist or fumes.
How about a video on the best " power-ups " in cartoons 😬 I loved Visionaries and, Jace & the Wheeled Warriors and Captain Cavemen 😀💙
He-man, thundercats, transformers, ghostbusters, silver hawks, GI Joe , Ninja turtles, just to name my top 7..😊👍
They need to quit playing and make this a live-action movie 😁👍
That would be nice as long as they keep out the PC attitude and wokeness
@@thebrownbaldywow, can you explain that 🤔
One of The "extreme toons" to marathon-watch immediately after school or during summer break. 💗 the list!
I love all these, and remember watching every episode.
Great 1980's cartoon. Thundercats, he-man, G.I. JOE and silverhawks are three great cartoon series til this day.
Thundercats was great back in the 80s i always loved that show
Awesome!!
Niiice!! I had to share
This is one of the best cartoons ever to exist you just had to be there to understand and live through that particular error in fact I really feel sorry for my nephews who didn't live in that time to just see all of these nice episodes every episode was really good
15:05 Ratar-O clearly uses his daggers to propel himself, thrusting with the energy discharge from the blades. Plus... he's bare-footed. No boots.
My favorite episode of The Thundercats is the Ghost Warrior. Grune the Destroyer
MINE TOO.
The way the narrator pronounces names like "Slithe" and "Monkian" tells me he has never watched the show...Just Saiyan
Strange Fun Facts Here:
Safari Joe is definitely a ruthless competitor, despite his cowardness
hide behind his Arsenal Gun. He overtook the Whole ThunderCat Crew
by himself!!
MacBeth isn't just for details, for he defeated Goliath, Brooklyn, Broadway
and Lexington, Hudson and Angela altogether!! And he's well Combat Trained
in the arts of Arsenals Tech.
Bishop in the other hand, Not only did he take out the whole TMNT Crew? he also
Took on and out, Splinter, Han and Karai by himself altogether.
they aren't just for show they are well ranked indefinitely.
I was not born to see this series when it debuted, but I did see it on Toonami when it was re-aired, and I enjoyed it along with Voltron in the 2000s or so. I remember an episode of Full House that Michelle was watching the show in the background. The show was fantastic for its time. The reboot was good, but sadly was cut too short.
I love this 😍
If there was ever another movie? Ving Rayms would've been great for the roll of Panthro, He looks just like him without Blue paint and he has the voice over for it.
Thundercats Hoooooooooo👍👌😜 one of my Top 3 Favourites 👊👍👌great animation
Good character descriptions
Nice one
I'm still shocked that shows still go by the amount of toys sold from a show, if not, they stop it, even if the viewings are good on it
Right? I think that is so stupid! If a show is going good, let it continue.
This guy pronounces everyone's name strangely. Did he ever watch the show?
I thought the same
Jagga
No way he has watched it
subscribed and liked 🤘🤘🤘
Liked and SUBBED 💪👍🏻!! SORRY, lol but Vultureman was sooo UNSCARY!! LOL! Thank you for the info and education!👍🏻🖐🏻✌🏻
Thundercats character names:
Jaga (JAH-GUH, first syllable rhymes with MA)
Slithe (rhymes with TITHE or WRITHE)
Alluro (pronounced ALLURE-OH, NOT ALLURE-UH)
I was born in 88 so as a kid I’d watch the reruns of thunder cats and loved it
Thundercats, Voltron, The Real Ghost Busters, The Centurions and Scobby Do were my favourite 5 cartoons of the late 80s & early 90s !
As a child I had the _biggest_ crush on Mum-Ra. One of the 2 highlights of each episode was:
*1.)* His transformation incantation (I got goosebumps EVERYTIME.)
*2.)* Lion-O's "Thundercats....HO!"
I was always confused as to why Grune (who _himself_ was the SAME SPECIES as the REST of the Thundercats) had a _FULL lion's head_ INSTEAD of the hybridized feline/human look the rest of the Thundercats spotted.
For fear, Mongor was the epitome of fear, and Spidera was awfully scary too.
Not as POPULAR as He man in the 80's ! Are you MAD MAN
You put Safari Joe on this list and not Mongor....dude even I remember that terrifying Goat Demon.
ok I'm in the 50ish age and I remember Monkey-man and then Simian and he was the coward
Epic!!!
I would kill for you to do a video on the 4 Subspecies movies. I'm sure there are many interesting facts and rumors out there I haven't dug up yet!
This was one of me favorites
It's Ma-Mutt, not Mammut. He's not a student on Mrs. Munger's Class from ABC's One Saturday Morning.
Mrs. Munger: Mahmoot!
Mahmoot: What?
I was born in 1980, it was one of my favourite cartoons. I didn't understand English when I was a kid, but I enjoyed watching thundercats!
Love this show.
Me and my family loved this cartoon and I even got the entire series on DVD for my father a few years back
"Eye of Thundera, give me sight beyond sight!" (NOT "sword of Omens, give me sight beyond sight") The amount of arguments I've had over this lol.
I loved this toon as a kid, the theme music was great, the main villain was just creepy enough to be genuinely scary and compelling to a young kid, it had it all. Definitely in my top 5 "toons from my childhood" list.
A live-action version of this would be great.
Man I loved thunder cats , Masters of,and G.i Joe ,Voltron, Dungeons and Dragons , The Turtles ,Nwa,WWF wrestling,Auto bots , Transformers glad I grew up in that era , Saturday morning was it .
I’d like to see a continuation of the 2011 series, it was amazing and was beginning to include characters from other series like He-Man, Silverhawks, etc. They should do another season and just improve the animation.
