Have you guys heard of this movie? Music by Elton John and Tim Rice, FTW. Lose the next twenty minutes of your life watching clips of every song from the film after the jump.

A while back, there was talk about a Thundercats remake. I imagine Hollywood works something like this:

Knock, knock.

Who’s there?

Hollywood.

Hollywood who?

Hollywood, who likes to ruin everything you ever loved about your childhood.

Last I checked, though, the movie was halted. Thundercats seems lost on the younger generation though. Anyone else remember in Juno when she says “Thundercats are go!”? I think she meant “Thundercats ho!” or “Thunderbirds are go.”

Speaking of Care Bears, this franchise of plush, colorful teddy bears were a staple of ’80s childhoods. Like many toys of the era, the Care Bears eventually found their way into a television series and (I believe) three movies.

In 2007, the Care Bears were reintroduced with the intention of ruining your fondest childhood memories. Mission accomplished. Well, at least Robot Chicken has a pretty funny Care Bears spoof.

File Sea Monkeys under “Pets for Kids Who Weren’t Allowed to Have Real Pets,” joining the ranks of the Pet Rock, Chia Pet, and Ant Farm. According to Wikipedia, Sea Monkeys are actually brine shrimp that have entered a natural state of suspended animation called cryptobiosis. Totally sci-fi!

Who didn’t love the book series about the vegetable-draining vampire bunny? From the moment when the baby bunny’s new family discovers a white tomato in the kitchen, drained completely dry of juice, most kids were hooked!

James and Deborah Howe’s Bunnicula was first introduced in 1979, back before everything cool about vampire mythology was appropriated by moody, Hot Topic-loving teenagers.
