REmember Tatsu, how did you all view him as as the right hand man. I had a few feelings about him like he does not speak much except Grunt and he is a very skilled and tough leader and never went against the Turtles except the end of Secret of the Oooze when the Turtles bodyslammed him in the club
part i Loved of Tatsu: when Shredder gave him an angry glare because he failed to destroy the Turtles, Tatsu was soooo mad that he smashed boxes around, went in the Locker room and beat everyone up and threw barbells down, threw 2 together, slamed one against hte locker and beat one until he was unconcious. How do you think Shredder felt of Tatsu doing that to the Foot teens. What if TATSU LOST HIS TEMPER IN FRONT OF SHREDDER
What would any of you do if Tatsu lost his temper in front of you??
How did you like that of the Foot Clan being delinquent and Dropout teens, and Danny joined it, but went good.

I loved Tatsu he was such a cool underling for Shredder. I like much better than Hun from the new series and I wish they could have included him in the new TMNT movie. I thought that scene where he loses his temper and starts throwing stuff around and beats up a foot teen was incrediable. Also thought that he had beat the that foot teen to death, at least that was the impression that I got when I saw the other foot ninja pull off his face mask and started talking all concerned like, which made Tatsu seem all the more threatening because of that scene. I also thought his training sessions with the foot teens was pretty cool as well, I'll never forget the "never lower your eyes to an enemy" line that he delivered in that raspy voice of his.
Tatsu was just great but I think his best scene was his show down with Casey Jones. :D
What would any of you do if Tatsu lost his temper in front of you??
Probably the same thing Casey did: Grunt just like him, make jokes, then get punched in the face. Then I'd smack him with a nine-iron and that alone would be enough to not only send him flying across the room, but knock him out. Apparently, Tatsu dropped the paintbrush while studying the art of ninjitsu.
That fight was epic.

Tatsu looks like an asian version of my father. Seriously, no ********. Seperated at birth.

I thought what Casey did was funny of making jokes and he even did it when he dealt with a short tempered skilled leader. I love how Casey hit TAtsu across the room. I still wonder what Shredder would do if tatsu lost his temper in front of him. I know Shreddre would win if he faught TAtsu
REmember Tatsu beating the foot member and saying never lower your eyes to an enemy. They also never made a tatsu figure.

Tatsu was cool. He's gotta dojo up in LA in Little Tokyo, I think I seen it.

I dunno he kinda reminds me of Oddjob from Goldfinger. IMHO I'd go with Hun anyday.

Ever see Enter the Dragon? It's totally taken from that.

yah except Tatsu speaks a few times and Goldfinger does not have as bad of a temper. How do you think Shredder felt when Tatsu beat up all the foot members and injured one due to his anger after the bad meeting with Shredder.

For his character it showed a loss of control. I thought it gave Tatsu some depth. I didn't care much for him otherwise.

Tatsu was a skilled warrior but he didn't speak much. If Tatsu lost his temper in front of me, I'd run like shell.
Who do you think would win in a fight: Tatsu or Hun?

Hun lost to anyone who could pose like a ninja in the show. Tatsu all the way.
To give the big guy credit we've never seen Tatsu go all out in a fight and the guy got decked by a golf club, but still Hun's just a big guy who's speed and agility took the turtle's by surprise the first time they ran into each other. After that, until Dragon's brew, it took seconds until he was unconcious off screen.

Tatsu was awesome. When I was a kid I thought he was a replacement for Krang because they couldn't do the puppetry or something (this was before I realized there was no Krang in the original comics).
But thanks to Tatsu I remembered to never lower your eyes to an enemy. Miyagi taught something similar, but not as harshly.:)

I doubt Shredder noticed, or cared.

My thoughts exactly. To Shredder they were all just his minions that did his bidding. I'm sure he expected a few to get killed by the turtles or end up in jail somewhere. I doubt he cared if one got his ass beat. I really liked Tatsu because he seemed so badass, but had like a very strange loyalty to Shredder, even though it seemed like he was kind of resenting him. I dunno, I think that Hun would own Tatsu. But that's mostly due to his size.

yah Splinter told them the Shredder uses them and cares nothing for them.
I just watched this scene a few hours ago and foot teens were running out of the room when Tatsu was beating people up and throwing the Barbells down.

I wonder how TAtsu would do in an anger management course?

haha I'd imagine there wouldn't be much of one left.
"Stand up and state your name and problem."
Tatsu would grunt and chop his chair in half

Maybe if Shredder gave Tatsu a direct order not to assault anyone, including Nicholson, and his special brand of "anger managment" things will turn out more hilariously entertaining. ;)

The image of Tatsu and Nicholson singing "I'm So Pretty" is making me laugh. Or maybe Jack would sing it and Tatsu would just grunt along.

Jack singing with Tatsu bobbing his head ala roxburys SNL skit is a visual in of itself. ;)

I can't say I ever thought too much of Tatsu...It's not like he really did much lol. But I guess I'd be interested in seeing him return in some format.

I wouldnt say Tatsu is that interesting of a character, but because he was Shredder's main guy and appeared in not one, but two TMNT films, I can certainly see why fans who grew up watching those movies would have a particular fondness for the guy.

Yeah I don't know what it is, he just seems so badass for some reason.But I thought it was funny that he never really fought the Turtles, Just Casey and then was crushed by the four of them. That must've hurt.
