Not really.

Ten or so people liked it. A couple of 'em used to post here.

Another ten or so said they liked it and defended it to the hilt but when pressed admitted they only liked it because it was TMNT.

Then there was a bunch a people who was clearly their job to say they loved it and everyone else was hater and we'd better strap in for a whole series.

Funny how things work out.

And see this is the crap I'm talking about

BS the whole statement smh

There were plenty of fansof the PD movie only shame was they should have axee the first movie and release the second movie as it was in the first place

But to just will fully ignore a large group because you couldn't be bothered to let those enjoy what they want to. That's the freaking issue smh

But it wasn't enjoyable. It spat in the face of everything TMNT. The PD movies some people will literally like anything with the TMNT logo attached and that's messed up. It means they can literally create anything and people will still pay.

If you only post when plants are being discussed and a new movie is being rolled out, well...

Watch out for the pesticide, it'll probably knock you on your @ss.

While I do think there were plants on these boards- and will be again- I do believe there was an almost witch hunt mentality that formed, of people looking for plants.While I do think there are moronic plants that should be called out. I think there actually were a few new people who just liked the bay movies, and they got chased off by overzealous gatekeeper jerks. While PD plants are a problem, not everyone who doesn't agree with the TMNT fan hivemind is a plant.

Look, I have two of the TMNT movies in my collection: the dvds of the 1990 film, and the DVD for out of the shadows. Those two movies are my favorite Ninja turtles films. Those movies, to me, are TMNT. the original is the best TMNT film ever made, and Out of the shadows has characters I wanted to see in a TMNT film. that is a personal opinion, and just because a new poster likes something everyone else thinks is trash, it does not make that person a plant.

If they make a TMNT reboot movie retelling the shredder battle/origin, I won't buy a ticket.

Here is a novel idea maybe things can be subjective like what makes tmnt great is it pretty expensive, so for some what makes tmnt is different from others, I enjoyed the first movie I know that not everyone did but what really made the movie bad was the toxic fans who just can't grasp that others might think differently.

Or maybe users on this site made it not worth stocking around to here the garbage the kept spewing again I found more receptive outlets to discuss with like minded fans

I liked the first movie I greatly enjoyed the sequel

Am I excited to see what they have in store for the next movie hell yeah I am
Does that make me a plant hell no

Well unless we have some very psychic members I think those who registered years ago are obviously not PD PLANTS

So far as newer people, Panda_kahn_fan made the point above, yes there will be PLANTS and there will be a number of people who do like the movie, just a case of telling them apart, as I said before I wasn't here then, I just hear that it was ugly all around.

I really believe that if they released out of the shadows first it would have done much better, it was a much better film, it was closer to the source. I honestly enjoyed it and it sucks I don't get to see what happens next.

But I am excited to see what they have in store for us in the next movie

If I don't see somebody commenting on the cartoons, or the comics, or the toys, or anything in the not-TMNT section... just in the movie section whenever movies come out...

I dunno, man. If Andrew calls those people plants, I'm not sure he's wrong.

I like you okay, though, plant or no plant. I remember you having a hard time with your mom a couple of years ago; hope you're doing well.

samxsteal's join date insulates him from any PLANT controversy. 2006 is very different than a 2014 or 2016 join date... or a 2019 one.

You legit are a freaking tool lol

Like wtf give you the right to didctate whether or not new fan joining ate plants for not this place isn't all they great to thing a movie company would legit spend resource into "plants" I'm sorry but this place doesn't have that much clout lol.

And your thinking it why this place has kind of stagnated

But sure keep pushing everyone off the site and sit on your pretend throne of almighty tmntship like you're opinion some how matters in the scheme of things lol.

I expect a lot of people thought Andrew was a plant when he joined in 2007, he joined the same year the TMNT 07 movie came out.
