Official Episode Discussion #5 "I Think His Name Is Baxter Stockman"

**Machias Banshee** · 10-17-2012, 09:49 PM

Alright, everyone!

Warning: UK preview, ignore the whole 'monday' thing...

I'm so excited to see this next episode... As some may remember, this was the episode that was offered as a sneak peek to the special Fan Preview in San Diego back a couple years ago. It was not much more than a special animatic with some voices thrown it, but the little bit we saw was Great...

Well, now we all get to see the final product!

The boys are trying to sneak out with April for a night at the movies. Of course, you know Splinter probably would not want this to happen. So the boys do what any teenage ninja would do - they sneak out... but you KNOW they're gonna get caught. You can't hide things from a ninja master...

Our beloved (and sometimes tortured) evil scientist is finally making his debut, and there's no telling what mayhem he could cause the turtles (not to mention the city). Hopefully Baxter's dealings with the Shredder won't end up with him being reduced to a spinal cord and an eyeball like Robocop...

So...

WILL BAXTER BE REDEEMED AS A TERRIFYING SCIENTIST?!
WILL BAXTER KEEP HIS BODY PARTS IN THIS SERIES?!
WILL THE BOYS BE CAUGHT SNEAKING OUT?!

Stay Tuned!!

Splinter is so awesome.

Moonlight1102 · 10-20-2012, 09:03 AM

Having the Play/Pause/Rewind buttons form a person was pretty clever.

*Donatello19* · 10-20-2012, 09:11 AM

I'm loving the episode so far! I liked when Mikey was like "it's the po po!"

*MikeandRaph87* · 10-20-2012, 09:16 AM

One thing that is getting old ,but is great when sparringly done is the TMNT creating their adversaries. Baxter was already a loser scientist,but they gave him means to an end to start his villainy.

*NinjaMan* · 10-20-2012, 01:21 PM

Stockman Pod lol. Great episode. Splinter cracks me up. Good fight scenes. Baxter looks to be a fun villain. Loved the Koolaid man reference lol. I'm loving how Leo is impersonating his favorite hero.

*MrTMNT2012* · 10-20-2012, 01:41 PM

Loved the Episode, even better than last weeks in my opinion. It had way more Epic battles and funny moments!

*pannoni1* · 10-26-2012, 02:19 PM

Finally got a chance to watch this, and it was unimpressive, though it had its funny moments and there was some decent action, but a lot of it was predictable, and it felt a bit dumbed down at times compared to some 2k3 episodes. At least we got to hear Booyashaka for the first time when Mike uses his skateboard. I noticed some girl on the back of the skateboard; who was it?

Overall: 6/10

Second time. Mikey says it in the 1st episode.

Why is everyone comparing this to the 2K3 Series? This is the kind of stuff that made Ciro get off the forum, so then why are you still continuing? Just enjoy the show and stop being a bunch of stupid nitpickers!

**Jester** · 10-26-2012, 02:58 PM

Because the new will always be compared to the old. Nick just has the misfortune of 2 shows to be compared too,

*Xav* · 10-26-2012, 02:58 PM

Three if you count Next Mutation.

Every reboot for ANY franchise will always be compared to what came before.

Yea but that's no excuse for being a dick to the creative team behind the new series.

So what? This is a forum for discussion.

Oh no! Someone on the new Nick show got pissy apparently, lets forever never mention another TMNT version ever again!

*BubblyShell22* · 10-26-2012, 03:51 PM

I think the whole ordeal wasn't that it was being compared to the 2K3 series but that people seem to think 2K3 is better than this show.
