Does anyone remember the name of a cartoon that was a sci-fi western? It had this sheriff who had powers so that when he said things like "strength of the bear" he would get super strength. He had a cyborg horse that could go from all fours to standing upright like a human and the bad guy kind of reminded be of Skeletor from He-man (in fact it was very much like a sci-fi remake of He-man, I swear). And instead of mining gold, they mined this red crystal stuff.
My mom and I loved this cartoon. We even have some of the toys based on it, but neither of us can remember what it's called.
And while we're at it does anyone remember the cartoon that was about these talking horses that lived in another dimension or something? They were different colors (like red, blue, green, etc) but the leader was a black stallion and this girl would travel to this world to help them out (No, it's not My Little Pony). The bad guy was some kind of zebra centaur.
I've been so nostalgic, lately. I watched Unico which I haven't seen since I was six and the other day watched The Secret of NIMH after having not watched it for years (though I still love it). I've also been tempted to seek out other old favorites but decided I'd better pace myself. The older stuff seems to send my imagination through a time warp.

Everything else: Please, no! I especially will never forgive that he ruined Thumbelina! It's one of my favourite fairy tale, the one I was always wishing Disney would make one day (aside from Rapunzel, and boy, do I love Tangled!), and I'm sure, after this travesty, Disney won't touch the theme with a long stick.

What with remakes being all the rage (and because I believe Thumbelina didn't do well in theaters) I think the story still has a chance. Disney could totally do their own version if they wanted

There is no creativity at all in this (though I like some of the songs - just not in the context).
