Raphael! I like bad@sses with an attitude!(Shadow could be exampled) Rock on with those mean sai's!!I read in the paper 'bout a year ago there'd be a new Computer Generated TMNT movie. Any more news on it?

no
i haven't heard anything lately
that'd be so groovy to have a cgi <computer generated imaging for the abbreviation impaired> turtle show!
as long as they were still kinda funny, and had their old lingo and say stuff like
"totally rad, mikey"
instead of using new slang and say
"tight, dog"

The CGI movie- there's nothing new on it yet...
on the official site, (ninjaturtles.com) you can check out the CGI promo video for the new cartoon they were planning.
As for the new cartoon, it's gonna be cel animated since the networks didn't wanna spend a whole lot on a CGI series (Peter Laird was disappointed).
Michelangelo's name spelling: That's an interesting topic... The first comic spelled it "Michaelangelo" with the extra "a". It was spelled like that until last December, when Peter decided he was sick of the 17-year old typo. Now it's Michelangelo, like the painter.
As for Shadow being a bad-ass, since when? Are you talking about Shadow from the TMNT? That's Casey and April's adoptive daughter after the City at War story arc, for those who haven't read it, the color series, or the new series. She never had much of an attitude, even now...
Lastly, I am making weapons in art class, miniatures for my TMNT action figures. Now they'll have real metal weapons! This'll be so cool!
-
I'm talkin' about that Ultimate Life-Form....SHADOW!!! Man I wish my Hundreds and Hundreds<I think I own them all give or tak a few> of TMNT action figures had real Metal Weapons.

hey, i finished my clay work
it's pretty cool <not to toot my own horn or anything>
on my project i wrote mikey instead of living with a misnomer my whole life <or as long as i keep the thing>
as for the others, i had leo, don,and raph...should i have made it donny, instead?
opus, is there DEFINATELY going to be a new series??
i know i have a LOT of turtle toys
the best ones are probably the ones from the movie <with the weird skin stuff>
or the wacky action ones
i also like the shell-packin' ones but never had the luck of owning them

It's not quite definite yet, but it's pretty close to a reality. Last I heard, the pilot episode was tested on some kids. You know how that goes: they put the kids in a room to watch it, and see if they like it. If they didn't like it, I don't see how hard it would be to hunt down and kill every last one of them.

Aren't you guys made fun of in school?
I mean, really, if I went around telling people I was a Ninja Turtles fan, I'd never hear the end of it. But, I'm not a fan, but I don't hate it. Not that it matters.
But, aren't you guys? I'd know I'd make fun of anyone in my class that still liked the Ninja Turtles, at least, as much as you guys seem to.

F them if they don't like da Turtles is my Motto. I'm not gonna stop likin' somethin' just 'cause it's not "IN" anymore. anyway I can draw TMNT pretty D@mn good I've been doing it since I could get a hold of a pencil/pen/marker/crayon.

Ha ha, you kids are even more resourceful than I thought, I guess I have misjudged you two. You guys have a great attitude towards other people, and make sure you never change it. Trust me, you'll meet people who'll get under your skin, and make fun of you for no reason what so ever, it may even seem like I do it to people, but with your attitude, I don't think you guys will have any problems at all.
-
Yeah, if people try to make fun of me for loving the Turtles as much as I do, it doesn't really bother me in the least. All I know is I'm better than they are because I've found myself (for the time being, anyway), and they can go eat poo out of Rocksteady's poohole for all I care.
-
OOOoooOOOooooooOOOO!!
black mage, how old are you?
i'm fifteen and haven't really come across what you're talking about
back to the turtles
what turtle movie do you like best?
i think the tmnt II secret of the ooze is the best
the first one was too dark and the third was... too bad

Well, I'm 17, but I had expericenced what I was going on about when I was about 14-15. I guess you just come from a better place than me. Heh...

#1 was #1! The first one, in my opinion, was the best. I like the Turtles in any shape or form they decide to come in, whether it be movies, comics, games, toys, stickers, cartoons, etc., etc. However, I'm gonna have to say that the one medium that was my favorite was the original Mirage comic book series. It had perfect balance- the storyline was the original, the Turtles' characters were done properly, there was a perfect blend of twists, humor, and action, and last but not least, every other character wasn't a mutant (this really ticked me off about the Archie series, as wonderful as it truly was). Therefore, the first movie was my fave, since it was very close to the original Mirage series. Certainly, a few things were backwards (it was CASEY's grandma's house in Massachusetts, not April's; LEO got the crap beaten out of him, not Raph; etc., etc.) but all in all, this movie was extremely close, and has been called the closest comic-to-movie adaptation ever. The second movie was good, too, but it didn't feel as much like the original, and it didn't feel as much like a real movie. It was nuts, and that's what I love about it. As for the 3rd? It wasn't all that bad... the plot was the most original of the three. So it did have a good plot, only... it was poorly executed. They could have done a lot more with it. They had all the original actors and voice actors back except for April, who was still played by Paige Turco (Judith Hoag was WAY better! What were they thinking?), and yet they just spouted one-liners the whole time. That was my problem with the sequels- there was no communication, only one-liners.
Thank you for your time.
-
which april was which?
the 3rd was a good idea in a bad way
personally, i think they should have stayed away from time travel
also i liked don's voice better in the second one, it sounds nerdier, which is what don is
does anyone know of a video store chain that sells super nintendo video games?
i want a tmnt game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Boomo arigatou gazaimash ita! and have a nice day!

"Cowabunga" is the first thing Laird wanted to get rid of, that and pizza. The reason is and has always been that these turtles aren't from California, so why should they have valley accents? There's no surfing in New York. As for the darker roots, that certainly isn't a bad thing. Now all the mainstream fans of the commercialized version will get to see what the turtles would have been like if they hadn't been kiddified. Not that the whole commercialization was a bad thing... if it weren't for this, Eastman would still be a lobster cook, and Laird would be a freelance illustrator... that, and I would have never heard of the turtles!!! Total suckage!
-
Kowabunga! and PIZZA TIME!! Are what make the turtles TURTLES!!!!!!!!
Mikey: Bodacious man,I'lll never stop talkin' in RADICAL 70's phrases!!
Raph: I GEWT THE LAST SLICE OF PIZZA!!!!
Don: IT'S MINE PIPE BRAIN!!!
*the two engage in mortal Kombat for the pizza*
Leo: *sigh* why don't you guys try Meditating? Hey.....is the Peanut Butter and Squid?!! IT'S MINE!!!
*The three wrestle for the Pizza*
Shreeder: HAHAHAAA!! I have kidnapped Splinter!!
Mike:(mouth full of Bean & Broccoli Pizza) Mmm? *Gulp* You got a splinter? Did you try to pull it out with tweasers?
Leo: MASTER SPLINTER!!! C,mon gang let's get Shellin'!!
*The Four whip Shredder's @ss in a gruesome Battle*
Shredder: Noooo!!!
TMNT: KOWABUNGA!!
Splinter: You have fought well,my sons. Let's go home and have some Pizza.
Mike: I want Jelly Icecream Fudge!!
Leo: I want brussel sprout SPAM Bean!!
Don: Extra cheese and Onions!!
Raph: BUT NO ANCHOVIES!!!

I dunno why he wants to get rid of pizza, but it's probably because it wasn't in the original series. Pizza was added when Archie created their TMNT Adventures Series, in order to identify with teenagers.

Well don't Blame me I'm not THAT old....I was only born in 1987.....Hey I think I'll ask my Mom....

Soitenly! I was so so SO incredibly happy when NT:TNM was announced to have no affect on the existing storyline and that Venus was proclaimed a non existent character. It was... scrumtrilescent.
-
Oh, and sais do have sharp tips- those prongs, the long ones in the middle. And some artists drew all three prongs as being sharp-tipped. He stabbed quite a few people in the comic, and one time he was "having some fun" with a terrorist type of guy.

No,No,I've seen real sai's,all three tips are (sort of)blunt,but are still able to Stab.
-
I'm sure there's different types of sais for different uses. I've also seen the type with the curved prongs on the side. Perhaps those are for stabbing people to the right or left of you while you block swords.
-
since we're talking about weapons
i watched tmnt II secret of the ooze yesterday and saw master splinter using a bow and arrow
is that a ninja weapon?

Y8FooD...well, you did
-
I think you're right Opus, I've seen different types of Sai's,but I'm positive there's a Blunt kind. Who here has Nunchucks? I mean real Metal Ones. They're so cool! I'd have Shurikens and Katana too,but my Mom would kill me if I came home with a sword. and Cable04,I think Bow & Arrows are sort of a universal weapon. But Samurai's did use them.
-
Samurais used swords and armor and a lot of stuff, but the problem with that stuff was that it was really expensive. In order to cut down on the military spending, many governments made it so regular poor folk could fight. That's where bow and arrows come from. Nice, cheap, deadly materials- it brought killing people to a whole new level!
-
You know there are a WHOLE BUNCH of Japanese Ninja Weapons the TMNT never used. Alos,why is Leo's Katana STRAIT? It's upposed to be Slightly curved and very STURDY,not wobly or thin at all. Alos,you'd be hard pressed to find a Ninja Carrying TWO Katanas.Peter& Laird kinda screwed there.
-
no no no
katanas come in pairs
that's how they're used
that's why it was stupid for leo to loose his arm in one of the comic series set in the future

3-way tie:

2. Lord Dregg- back in '96 I just loved to hate this guy!
3. Savanti Romero- he is a crazy, time-travelling jerk, but he looks cool! He was only in about 2 comics, i fmemory serves me right- #8 and Tales of the TMNT #7.

LeatherHead!! him or Good 'ol Rat King. Mondo-Gecko was cool too,but didn't he turn good?

That... is a REALLY difficult question. I pretty much like all of them equally. I guess I see a lot of my own personal qualities in Mike and Don, although I've been a lot on the Raph side lately. I don't have leadership skills, but I admire Leo's, as well as his fighting ability (He is the one who killed the Shredder, one on one).
-
Raphael is the Ultimate Bad@ssed Sai swingin Ninja Reptilian in Town!!!
-
i thought it was donatello who actually threw his bo to hit the bomb to kill the shredder
in the movies it was splinter who killed the shredder
michelangelo is a party dude!!!
-
Donatello (sort of) killed the Shredder the FIRST time. That was really a group effort though, as Donatello certainly didn't wear him down himself.
DON: This is the end for you, Shred-- OOF!
SHREDDER: You are overconfident, fool!
...Yeah. In the end, though, Don knocked him off the building and his thermite grenade exploded in his hand before he could use it for anything damaging to our heroes.
However, by using a blend of ancient Japanese magic and science, the Foot clan was able to resurrect their master. They found all of the Shredder's pieces, had worms eat them, did some tests, cloned the DNA, and ended up with four Shredders- well, one real Shredder, and three freaks, made from the worms that were dressed like Shredder. The turtles confronted these guys, but just as the fight got underway, Raph said, "Saki is mine!" Leo said he couldn't, they have to stay together, and chased him, leaving Mike and Don to deal with midget Shredder, lobster-claw Shredder and humongo four-armed Shredder (who were all good fighters, despite their looks... and they were later joined by more Foot members, including Shredder elite guards and other good fighters) Leo found Raph just about to be killed by a Shredder elite guard. He reprimanded Raph about how they were taught to stay together and told him to go help his brothers. Meanwhile, Leo took on the Shredder...
The fight was great. If you wanna see it for yourself, hunt down Mirage #21. It ends with a huge explosion. The turtles think Leo is dead, but then, he comes in with a bodybag and proclaims: "Oroku Saki... The Shredder... is dead. It's finished. Our destiny is complete. We have... one final task..." So they burned the body and stuck the mask on a flagpole, and lived happily ever after... except for the Foot's constant attacks, but that story can wait for another time.
-
so, in mirage comics, who is their main opponent if the shredder is dead?
_0-/<______________
who wants to buy a skunkle?
_0-/<):________________
Y8FooD...well, you did
-
Main opponent? There are many... It's hard to have a great story with just one opponent.
The Foot's more or less #1, as they continue to plague the turtles after their master is dead (until City at War, the absolute best story arc ever- maybe i'll talk about that later).
As the Mirage series was originally done by many different guest artists, there wasn't much of a continuing storyline or recurring villians. Ones that did come back at least once which I remember were:
1. Savanti Romero
2. Leatherhead (?-sort of an enemy, sort of not)
3. Baxter Stockman (came back in volume 2- the color series)
All in all, not too many recurring enemies existed in the Mirage series. Lots of good guys come back, but baddies tend to stay dead. In the new series (10 years later), the Foot is coming back next issue, so I guess the Foot is the main enemy (Even though Karai gave her word!!!!)
-
Oh, yeah! Rat King came back a few times too, but I'm pretty sure he's dead.
-
i think once someone is dead... they should stay dead
go ahead and talk about city at war some, but not too much at a time, if you want...
i'll listen

Y8FooD...well, you did

The only character who came back after dying was the Shredder. The reason I'm not totally sure Rat King's dead is I'm not totally sure that that was his body. As for City at War, I'm too tired to talk about it tonight, plus, it's pretty complex and I wouldn't know where to start! Pick one of these characters, and I'll tell you their story tomorrow.
1. The Turtles
2. Casey Jones
3. April O' Neil
4. Splinter
They're all pretty good- I mostly recommend Casey's or the Turtles'... the others aren't as action-packed.
-
definately the turtles
you don't have to give me all the details, and it doesn't need to be all at once
thank you for sharing your vast wisdom with my poor human self

Y8FooD...well, you did
-
No problem... lessee, the Turtles...
Well, April had left town for California, and Casey followed her. Splinter went off to meditate, leaving the turtles aimless. Without their master, the turtles had no guidance, and none of them could figure out what they should be doing. As it was, the Foot still often terrorized them (as Raphael said, "The head's dead but the body's till kickin'!"- "the head" being Shredder). One day they found themselves stopping a mugging, and they realized that they had been reduced to the neighborhood watch. But then came that violent street war...
That's enough for today... I'm tired from work. Sorry to leave you hanging, but nothing really cool has happened quite yet! Tomorrow, then...
