Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

[B.J.]

For those of you huge TMNT fans out there, this year is the 25th anniversary of the heroes in a half shell. This was possibly the biggest TV series in the late 80s/early 90s.

To fans of both the 1987 series or 2003 series, there will be an anniversary special where the new meets the old. I think it's awesome to see TMNT, Rocksteady, Bebop, and Foot soldiers in modern animation. Here's a sneak peek of it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gUBLIi2FH1Y&feature=channel_page

What do you think of TMNT, when was the first time you experienced TMNT, are you still a fan?, etc.

I was into it. I watched the show, got all the toys, wore the underwear. And yet I still can't remember a single plot or story arch from the show. 

[sjonnoh]

can't remember when I saw it 1st but I did liked it, but wasn't such a big fan of it. 1st I saw the 80-90s version, later some series with real people and finally 2003, I liked 2003 most, only too bad they didn't used the older enemys and can't imagen that shredder suddently was not a human but that thing that used to be in krang. I always enjoyed to play an old nintendo game of it.

I never liked them.
It used to make me angry when people compared SPC to TMNT

[Gabya]

[sjonnoh]

top 3 of old cartoons will always be:
1. spc
2. bmfm
3. tmnt

I don't see why one would hate TMNT, which is rare in my eyes. I wouldn't lie to any of you when I say TMNT was my most favorite show back then and I'm sure it was alot of peoples'. I really feel sorry for today's generation of kids who never grew up with the type of shows we used to watch back then.

@sjonnoh: I am also having trouble getting my darn NES to work. The light still turns red when I turn it on but I get no screen (and no, it's not the usually "insert-outsert your NES game in and out of the system til it works" situation). My NES can be such a PAIN!

[sjonnoh]

well, there was something broken in my NES, the place were you had to connect the adapter was broken, so for me it was really impossible to play it... also the controllers were broke 1 time in the 2 months. If they would make a new NES that won't break so fast, I would buy it immediately

[B.J.]

Definately. At the TMNT worldwide tour, they're reselling old products like old action figures with new packages and I saw some of the old games being sold. I need to rebuy them, I can't believe how stupid I am for selling them. I'm also excited for the 2 new games this year; TMNT Smash Up (Wii) and TMNT: Turtles in Time Reshelled (3D remake for Xbox Live, PSN, WiiWare). My god, I'm living in Nostalgia Land!

[sans soul]

my best friend and i used to sneak downstairs into her brother's room and steal his ninja turtle action figures (including Crang), and play with them with our My Little Ponies.

ah the 80s....

I believe you mean the Utroms. There was an evil Utrom, who was ruthless, known as Charell. Charell went by many names on many worlds, most notably The Shredder.

yea, that's the "thing" I was talking about
but in the 80-90s shredder was a human, not a utrom, right?

Yes but the Utroms only existed in the 2003 series and other incarnations. In the 1987 series, Krang is just what you call "an alien brain in a robotic body".

[sjonnoh]

it looks the same
btw, just to think of what we talked earlier about: spc looks like tmnt, I just watched episode 7 and at the end speedy said: we're just waiting to hear from our agent about a big movie deal.
the narrator: that's were you have to wear the turtle costumes, right?....

[KageReneko]

New Turtles, Classic Turtles and Original Turtles in one image... I just can say... COWABUNGA!!!

I can't wait...

[KyoZaber]

W.T.Pf 

It looks... Interesting.

[blind2d]

I'll see this! Probably be disappointed... but I'll still see it!

[sjonnoh]

yeah it does look interesting...though the tmnt from 2003 looks better than the new ones

[Blackcat]

Well... as long as they dont include the clone turtles from the future...

[KyoZaber]

I respectfully disagree. I happen to enjoy the classic dudes. That's just me though.
