Ninja Turtles, cartoon on, was never a high-quality piece of thoughtful entertainment (I never read the original comics of it). It's really irritating to me that kids are being marketed the same things their parents were 20-30 years ago. Maybe this trend's gone on for a long time but I never noticed it. Today's children need their own pile of singular inane, commercialized shit to cherish.

I pretty much deny all knowledge of the turtles after the first movie
and even the live turtles in the first movie were a liiiiiiiiiiittle creepy
more fun as a cartoon imo

BTW, Michael Zulli's three-issue run on TMNT in 1991 is the benchmark of the whole series...

feel like the bay movie is likely to skew toward the zulli look
― terrible rappin' barney rubble sounding thing (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 20 March 2012 23:19 (twelve years ago) link
and that zulli will see zero money
whether or not there's any validity to the complaints, can't we all at least agree that professional grief being heaped upon michael bay is net gain for humanity?

Thing I liked most about the first couple of movies was the connection they had to NY/bboy culture, however vague. It was like watching a live action anime about a bunch of breakdancers. Also hands up everyone who can sing the verse couple of verses of the T.U.R.T.L.E. Power rap from the 1st film....?

Massively OTM! When current generations hijack the nostalgia of previous generations, we get Woodstock '94. And '99. Never forget.

Also kids have plenty of their own dumb shit and I'm sure they were trying to market "the Apple Dumpling Gang: the next generation: the animated series" or something when I was young. I have to say it is p weird working w/eighth graders & they try and school me on who the Ninja Turtles are, though.

I was a huge TMNT nerd as a kid, but the only thing I'll really rep for these days is the Archie Comics series (geared more towards kids and ostensibly an offshoot of the not-so-hot cartoon) and some of the original black & white stuff.

xxpost sometimes it's cool though - my niece's path into anime started with Robotech when she was about 10, and as her grownup Aunt and Uncle, Mr Veg and I couldn't have been more psyched to hand her the armload of dvd box sets.

The Nickelodeon sale was two years ago - first issue came out in 1984.
(Eastman stopped working at Mirage when Tundra launched c. 1991, sold all his share bar a creator interest to Laird/Mirage in 2000, and Laird bought the rest out in 2008.)

at least 'life in hell' used to be great. tbh i think eastman and laird's original comics are pretty mediocre. my fondest TMNT memories are of the arcade game.

NES version was great except for that one level where you had to defuse the underwater bombs. prob among my most frustrating childhood experiences.
