Well, I think they were just making fun of the action-hero super manly face stereotype (hence the over-the-top metal music and explosions). Besides, they've already used the original cartoon animation style in earlier episodes, most notably in "Dreams", even though it was pretty much just the ending of Trouble in Tokyo with parodied dialogue. I love the original series a lot, but I don't think they have to take every possible chance to allude to it. TTG has developed its own unique, silly style and continuity, and I enjoy that.
