theonion.com— LOS ANGELES—In the largest deal ever made to s**t out a movie, Warner Bros. and director Michael Bay announced a landmark $50 million agreement this week to monumentally f**k up ThunderCats.

A "popcorn flick" -- is that where the people in the theatre are all obnoxiously chewing popcorn with their mouths open the entire time? Yeah, no thanks. No wonder I don't go to the movies anymore.
s**tlo La Douche is a good actor? Man, what low standards you have.p.s. The movie was so butchered and unbelievable that if I was able to even believe in gigantic robots with souls existing and searching for the ultimate power that we were able to hide from them, that would be the easy part.
see I don't care what you guys say, Bay's only good movie was "The Rock" I mean come on...Nicolas Cage at his most god awful. Ed Harris wasting talent, and Sean Connery...doing that weird trick through that flaming stove to open the door and then say "WELCOME TO THE ROCK"I s**t my pants everytime.
I watched ThunderCats growing up so I'm a fan of the cartoon. It's more a nostalgic feeling I get than anything else though. I just recently watched a few episodes on YouTube; I still enjoy them. I just don't see how Bay can improve upon the cartoon from what I've seen but a ThunderCats movie still has potential in the right hands.The special effects would have to be really good at least a step up from those we have seen to help us appreciate the unique abilities of the characters. He'll need to develop the storyline well also to please fans and people who aren't familiar. But it probably won't happen, of course.
