    Has he heard anything about the Thundercats lately? And not just the movie but the new series, videogames etc..

    And how did he get into voice acting?
    I´m really interested in that myself and would like to hear how you should go about it

  2. Larry K.

    Your 80′s vocals truley brought life into the Lion-0 character. I shall honestly hope that you can provide service again in the upcoming media releases.

    Just awesome…

    I’ve been a fan of ThunderCats for my entire life. I was wondering who is going to be in the movie. I also want to know if the ThunderCat twins are going to be in the movie. Thanks.

    Hi,
    I am a hardcore fan of The Thudercats. One of the best genuine entertainment ever made. Glad I grew up in the 80′s. My main question is will the chracter “Ben-Gali”, be in the upcoming movie and can give us any hint of who to expect to take this role? Also I would like to know what to expect from the movie and will it maintain its original elements? It will have to at least be better than “The Transformers” movie. Since Transerformers is the current benchmark of, remake of 80′s cartoons.

    Hi Larry, I hope you get to read this message soon. I can’t thank you enough for voicing Lion-O because he meant so much to me in my early years of growing up. The main thing was the messages he used to sent out to me through the episodes and it was your voice all along that made me listen. I don’t think I could have listened to Lion-O if it was anyone else.

    I really hope you voice Lion-O in the Thundercats movie I’v heard little about. I will honestly remove my arm if that was the only way to watch it hehe.

    again, hope you get this message. hit me back, just, truly yours, your biggest fan, mr. stan =)

    Hello Larry,

    I was wondering if you recall what your favourite episode or scene was and what episode/scene/plotline you disliked the most?

    Also, did you read any of the re-launched Thundercats comics and, if so, what were your thoughts on that.

    Thank you.

  7. Nim says:

    Bit of a random question but were the “outtake” sound files, that did the rounds on the internet a while back, real?

    If they were, it sounded like you guys had a great time recording the episodes.

  8. Melissa says:

    Larry-have to ask, will there be hints of relationships/actual relationships, like Lion-o/Cheetara or Liono-Wily Kit? If there are, could you please tell us the pairings?

  9. s.w says:

    Would he listen to my thundercats version theme? That could be great!!…Thanksss!!
    Cheers!

  10. Stewart Johnson says:

    Hey Lenny do you have an opinion on how they could pull off the rumoured live action thundercats movie, as these things can be tricky because there are sertain things you can only pull off in a cartoon? stewart

    owe and ps if it is live action do you think they should include snarf?

  11. Kenny says:

    Lenny,
    Your voice for lion-o was fantasic! I’ve been a big fan for years. It was and still is the best cartoon EVER made. What was is like recording the episodes for the show? Is there any aspects of yourself in Lion-o? All the best, a big, big fan, Kenny.
    P.S How can I get an autograph?

  12. Lenny, 1st of all i would like to say iam a huge fan of the Thundercats even though im only 18 thank my older brother 4 introducing me to it, i get excited everytime i watch my brother’s dvd box sets n i even cried when Lion-O said good bye to Jarga and when he meet his father Claudis and when he was dying, so sad i know.
    How does it make you feel to know that the younger generation who was not even born when the Thundercats were made really enjoy the cartoon?
    and will you be takein part in the new film and will any of the original cast members be invloved also?

    Big fan of thundercats, even though Lion-O wasnt may fave (Cheetara is) you still Rock!!!!!

  13. Just want to apologise as i put Lenny when your name is Larry =S

  14. Shekky says:

    Are you a fan og CG animation or would you be happier with traditional 2-D animation?

  15. Shekky says:

    a thundercats question now.

    In the anointment trials episodes. Would you consider when Tigra used his mind power to get the mutants off Lion-O’s path, him helping Lion-O? thus interfering in his trial?

  16. Erwin Juban says:

    Hey Larry!!, just wondering would you have any idea if they(The Studios) Have any plans of bringing back a New Thundercats on TV? like maybe on Cartoon Network or such other cable channels?

  17. Thundercats says:

    Will he have any role in the new movie?

  18. Chris says:

    I just wanted to know if there will be a video game and if the casting hasn’t takin place yet how will i be able to find out where to audition i would really love to be apart of this film even as an extra

  19. Brian Speakamn says:

    when is the video game being released and more to the point the movie my kids were the biggest thundercats fans ever and now there kids my grandkids are just a fanatical ho!!!!!!!!!

  20. Shannon says:

    Why is it that this movie is slated to come out in 2010 and no one seems to know anything on it. Like who’s doing the voices, the rough time frame that the movie is coming out, and there isn’t even an actual trailier out yet not even a teser. So, I guess my question would be do you know if it’s really coming out in 2010?

  21. Shannon says:

    By the way, Larry I love you man. Your awesome. you are right up there with Optumis Prim. Long live the Thundercats and Transformers.

  22. Josh Glennon says:

    Hi Larry, I was born the year Thundercats first came out, an since I was a little kid I’ve been watching Thundercats over and over, even now at 24 when I watch Thundercats, when lion-o says the famous words “Thunder, Thunder, Thundercats HO!” my stomach does flips, or when part of the theme song chimes through when something exciting happens same thing happens, lion-O was always my favourite, could you please email me.

    thanks and best regards
    Josh. G
