3 Ninjas

[XERO]

I just watched this movie Saturday, and I forgot how cool it was.

Although I'm older now, it's still a sight to see 8-12-year-old kids kicking the heck out of ninja-baddies. Rocky, Colt, and Tum Tum, 4 movies:

3 Ninjas

3 Ninjas Knuckle Up

3 Ninjas Kick Back

3 Ninjas: High Noon at Mega Mountain

If you remember these guys, discuss. :D

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

IMO these were VERY corny movies, but I LOVED the stoner-hitmen from the first one.

[XERO]

Yeah. Especially the one who only said 'Dude!' :lol:

[Weapon X]

Ha, I remember the first one the most, infact a tagline was "It's Home Alone meets Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", or something like that.

[Space Lieutenant Josh]

I actually have "Knuckle Up" on DVD (my grandma bought it for me--- she meant well!) and meant to take it back I think 3 years ago. I might as well just watch it, I guess. I always wanted to see it as a kid (obviously because of its enthralling sex appeal), but now i'm kind of afraid.

Remember the first episode of "Bonkers" that played before it in theaters?

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

Actually, I DO, strangely enough.

I loved those movies... though never saw 'High Noon At Mega Mountain'... I had a crush on Rocky, lol... though little Colt was quite a cutie, also... heh...

Though speaking of older movies... Who here remembers 'Sidekicks??' I absolutely adored that movie (mainly because of Jonathan Brandis) and still would like to own that today. ;) :)



...Oh yeah...


PS - Rocky loves Emily... Rocky loves Emily!! :D

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

I DID see "Sidekicks". I like that Chuck Norris is depicted as a magical being that makes kid's dreams come true.

[Jo Dawn]

*nods* Well, he IS Chuck Norris, after all. Hehe ;) :D

[GK Punk]

Which was the one with the Hulkster in it?

[Barkworm]

I think that was the only one I saw. The first one?

[XERO]

Nope. Hign Noon at Mega Mountain had Hogan in it.

He plays a has-been action star named Dave Dragon whose show has been recently cancelled.

He does one last show at the Mega Mountain amusement park where the 3 Ninjas are celebrating Tum Tum's birthday. Bad guys take over the park (Jim Varney is one of them, I might add :D) and it's up to the 3 Ninjas and Dave Dragon to stop them.

Though speaking of older movies... Who here remembers 'Sidekicks??' I absolutely adored that movie (mainly because of Jonathan Brandis) and still would like to own that today. ;) :)


Man, it's a shame that he committed suicide. I really loved that movie.

RIP, Jonathan. :(

I remember the first one vaguely.

Of all the parts to dedicate to memory, I recall them playing Super Mario Bros 3 in their bedroom. They were on the first level of World 1. Ten they had some sort of secret alarm to let them know when their parents were coming so they could pretend to be asleep.

The rest of the movie has decayed from my brain.

Edit: and I always liked Surf Ninjas better. ;)

[Mars-Chan]

You all just posted about a movie series that I absolutely ADORE!!!!!!!!! :D

:lol: How I could go on and on about this movie and spam the shell out of this thread...but I won't. ;) :lol:

Here are some of my favorite quotes from teh first movie:

[Grandpa is giving the boys names]
Tum Tum: Can I be Monster Destroyer? Or how about Super Killer?
Colt: How about Super Dork?

:lol:

Hugo Snyder: God, I love being a bad guy.
Mmm...where have I heard *THAT* before? ;)

Grandpa: Two lessons you have to learn from this battle. Lesson 1, never attack unless you're gonna win.
Colt: And lesson two?
Grandpa: Don't climb a tree that's full of thorns. Uh!
OUCH...XD

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

3 Ninjas and Surf-Ninjas

I mourn the demise of the "Kids suddenly becoming Ninja in ridiculous ways" genre. :cry:

[XERO]

Don't get me started with the quotes, Mars. :lol:

[Mars-Chan]

:lol:

Oh, why not, Ben-San? Those are some of the more classic lines! :D :lol:

[Jo Dawn]

Man, it's a shame that he committed suicide. I really loved that movie.

RIP, Jonathan. :(

No kidding.... I was bummed when I heard. Heck, I still am. What a shame, man... What a shame. :cry: :cry:

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

I never heard that he killed himself. How sad. :cry:

[Kid Icarus]

The first or the second one. Didn't care for the others much.

[Weapon X]

The first one was on HBO yesterday, so I got to watch it for the first time in like 10 years.

[XERO]

:lol:

Oh, why not, Ben-San? Those are some of the more classic lines! :D :lol:

Oh, what the shell... :P

I'll do the whole name scene:

(Grandpa is pulling out numerous masks while Samuel, Jeffrey, and Michael look on.)
Mike: "Grandpa, where'd you get that ugly mask?"
Grandpa: "This mask, my father gave to me on my day of names. And I will continue this tradition with you."
Jeff: "The 'day of names?'"
Mike: "We already got names, grandpa."
Grandpa: "Ahh, you may have family names, but not... ninja names! Ahh... (pulls out green mask) Samuel!"
Sam: "Sir!"
Grandpa: "From this day forward until forever, you shall be known as Rocky. 'Cause you're strong, solid, and cool as granite rock!"
(Rocky bows and recieves his mask.)
Rocky: (whispering) "Awesome... yes..."
Grandpa: "Jeffrey... (pulls out blue mask) ... Ah, you're fast and free. The spirit of a young wild horse! You shall be known as Colt!"
Colt: "Colt? (Recieves mask) ... That's cool!"
Mike: "What about me? Can I be 'Monster Destroyer?' Or how about, 'Super Killer?'"
Colt: "How about 'Super Dork?'"
Mike: "Shut up, spaz!"
Grandpa: "Ah, little one... (pulls out yellow mask) ... since your energy begins and ends with your tummy, you shall be known as... Tum Tum!"
Tum Tum: (laughing) "Tum Tum..."
Grandpa: "Huh... huh... huh..."

I love the first movie. I haven't seen the others, don't really have the urge to either.
