New TMNT trailer

I used to love TMNT. I had sheets and everything. My parents bought an extra set of sheets so that I could hang that set on my wall when I was young. My wall was covered in TMNT stuff.

Oh, I owed the Ninja Turtle album too. "We're the turtles! You can count on us!"

 

Cool..

 

Wow, that was awesome. I can't wait to see that.

 

Wow, I was actually pleasantly surprised by that trailer. It made me laugh a little, and I actually like the style of the animation. For anyone that's ever read the old black and white comics, the size of the turtles is spot on, but it adds some of the style of the new cartoon at the same time. I think it'll be very action heavy, and while I was hoping for a bit more drama like the first film, going overboard with the eye candy might work well with something like this too.

As for the older turtles movies, II was my favorite as a kid, but I actually like that one the least now. The first I really think got better with age, just because of the maturity of it. And the only real flaw I can say about three is the terrible costumes...

 

Just when you thought it was safe to back into the sewer.

 

Not a fan of the Turtles?

 

That was embarrassing to any pre-'90s teen who's seen the movies. This is aimed at kids, pure and simple. And, well, why not?

 

Well, I apologize to any pre-90's teen(s) that I may have offended.

 

I might watch that on TV for old-times-sake, but I couldn't bring myself to go to the movies to see it.
I can't imagine it will have the appeal it once had while at it's peak.

 

Considering that this is based, more off of the comic and the current cartoon, it should be as good as the first film. I've also heard that this is supposed to take place after the first film, and they are forgetting the rest, but I don't know how true it is yet.

 

Actually its based straight off the original comics more so than anything, so this is what the turtles should have always been like. For kids, well what TMNT film isn't? Hell, while the original films were good and had a good level of mature content, this is a step in the right direction, and any turtle fan would know that.

 

Yep..

 

I think that trailer was awesome. I like the new show, but i haven't been able to follow it after year 2. It's just not on that much in my area, and the dvd's are expensive.

 

What I meant, whatever the movies were, they were actors stills, and at least the first movie was cool. This looks just like some cartoon, wacky and banal punchline loaded. Which, as I said before, isn't a bad thing; it's aimed at kids and they'll like anyway. But having experienced the after-school cartoons and the live-action movies . . . this is waaay different, silly even.

Still, '80s revival is a good thing. Open the door, get on the floor, everybody walk the dinosaur.

 

indeed..

 

Have you read the comic, or are familiar with them. They are pretty hardcore from what i've heard of them and they are a helluva lot more serious than the original animated series. The current animated series is supposed to be more faithful to the comic than the first series was. I try to watch the new series when I can, but classes and work get in the way most of the time. It's a sweet cartoon, as far as cartoons made for kids go.

 

Go ninja...go ninja...go!

 

im happy the turtles are back!
theyre bossa-nova! er.. chevy-nova?
EXCELLENT!


does any body read the Mirage title?

 

Nope, but I wish I did.

 

I actually used to collect the turtles comics, they were very brutal. Once the cartoon came out they calmed down a little. But I'll never forget when Leo got captured by Leatherhead and he escaped in a time portal. So, Mike, Raph, and Don tried to go to the future to find Leatherhead, and they end up meeting themselves in the future. But it ends up that the only ones alive are Raph and Don, and they have this flash back to the Rat King finding their lair at some point. And what followed was a pretty bloody scene of Mike, Leo, and Splinter getting killed and Raph losing his eye.

Yeah, the old comics rocked.

 

cool..

 

hmmm...i dont recall that story, was that from when Image comics?
didnt get in to that series, only the Mirage & Archie.
i know in TMNT Adventures (Archie) that they jumped to the future, an Raph lost
an eye. but they werent fighting Leatherhead.



anyway cant wait for this movie! March!?!!
LOVED the first one
more excited about the Turtles than the Transformers!

 

Same here..

 

Can I be honest... I didn't like Transformers when I was a kid. I watched the movie a few hundred times and collected the toys, but hated Generation 1 & 2. So, I could care less about the Transformers movie, but Turtles looks fantastic.

 

I'm definitely gonna go see this. I used to love the (old) animated series as a kid. Though I'll be honest, and say I've never seen the movies. So, I can't say if this one will be better or worse.
