A Voltron Movie?
This is the most awesome thing I’ve heard of in a long, long time. Voltron kicked ass. I had all the lions until my mom heard a rumor they were painted with lead paint, and then they disappeared mysteriously. But I say learning disabilities be damned, Voltron was worth it.
Even better is near the end of the article, when they mention that Dreamworks is currently working on a Transformers movie! Now Voltron was awesome and all, but Transformers seriously kicked the most ass of all the 1980’s morphing robots.
Update 07/28/2005: I can’t believe I forgot to include this before. But here it is : the most complete history of the Transformers you will ever find.
Gobots sucked. Although it was somewhat cool how they could shoot using their hands and didn’t need to carry weapons.
Badass.

Voltron did indeed kick ass. Let’s hope the movie holds up to the memories in our heads.
The Transformers, in their first incarnation, *kicked serious ass*. Indeed even more than Voltron. I mean, shit, they were automobiles. Given my obsession with all things automotive, you can see why I was hooked at a young age.
They did fuck with the Transformers though, because they made a new cartoon a few years ago sans automobiles. They were just animals. What a let down. They called it Beast Wars. Bollocks, I say.
The GoBots were weak, except that they had one that was a Porsche 911. Needless to say, I had that toy.

Agreed. Go-Bots were losers. The original Transformers movie was great.
