Seems things are super slow right now aside from the Quotes game, so I thought maybe another game would gain some interst as well. A ThunderCat Trivia game, could be anything you want people to guess about the series. So I’ll start.
When Lion-O had to arm-wrestle a caveman, which ThunderCat stepped forward to help him and which ThunderCat told that ThunderCat not to? And what was the name of the episode?
That’s easy to narrow down. It has to be from the final 20 episodes, as we see the Ancient Spirits of Evil (apparently) start looking for a replacement to Mumm-Ra. Knock out the episodes where Mumm-Ra was the main threat, and there’s only a few left. But what episode did the old bag of bones help the good guys…
I have all the episodes on DVD and none of them on their cases list a title with an exclamation point other than ThunderCats Ho!
Merged Post:
I looked at the episode list at ThunderCats Lair web site and they also listed the Mumm-Ra Lives fiver parter with exclamation points (interesting since the dvd cases don’t) but no other. Question for you, did you see this exclamation point in the title at the beginning of the actual episode or somewhere else online?
It’s on the title card at the beginning of the episode. It’s probably also in the script. This may be a bit too arcane, even for a trivia challenge. If only there were a screen capture album somewhere that showed all the title cards…
Interestingly, ThunderCats Ho!, Mumm-Ra Lives!, and Return to Thundera! all feature exclamation points, but ThunderCubs does not.
ETA: Turns out it’s not in the script (or at least in the draft that I have). Just the title card. Wacky!
I found it! It wasn’t my first choice. My first choice was “Trapped.” That sounded like a good title name to have an exclamation point after it. Looked through titles trying to figure what sounded like it might have an exclamation point and after just a few, I found it. Yay!
The title is: Psych Out!
Next Question: Who was warned that there was a heavy duty meteor storm in their way of traveling to new Thundera and in their over-confidence, chose not to avoid it but went through it which caused them to crash land in unfamiliar territory? Who warned that person? And what was the name of the episode?
