Yep, you guessed it.
I haven't even watched it yet but I would imagine I should say something along the lines of "warning, some language may not be appropriate for younger audiences" based on his other reviews. I'm a big fan of both AVGN & this special so who knows what side I'll be on...
Enjoy & discuss.

Haha, it's a misunderstanding. Your eyes are playing tricks on you. That's one turtles hand over another, man.

Lol, that makes sense since I'm tired as ****. I'm going to bed. Till next time keep jamming the Wrap Rap!
I have never been so embarrassed of being a ninja turtle fan... Thank god no one was looking.

Haha, jeez. You folks are harsh. I always loved it for its silliness... Oh well. I guess now would be a bad time to mention I watch it yearly.

Im hoping the Nostalgia Critic tears this to pieces one day. He's a pretty big TMNT fan and he's got a TMNT review coming up at the end of the month so Im totally hoping it's Turtle's Christmas.
I agree tho. This is FAR worse than the Star Wars special. I always recomend We Wish You A Turtle Christmas to people so they can send it to people they hate. The full thing is up on YouTube now.
One of my fave parts tho is when Mikey is singing opera and the sidewalk Santa in the background is all confused with a "WTH is going on?!" look on his face.
Love the description of Splinter in that review. I just refer to him as talking poop or something a cat barfed up....

I like it for it's silliess as well. I mean if you don't take it serious then it's pretty fun/enjoyable. Just like the cummin' out of their shells tour...
Funny ass review though.

There heads for some reason remind me of a bare skull:lol: I knoe that sounds funny but it does, it looks like they have no lips at all just teeth! And it also looks like the people in the costume are walking around with boners cause the way he pointed out the crotch area. I am sorry that's just a horrid video!:tthumbsd:

Dude! Did they put splinter into a blinder, washing machine or something? He has Sonic spikes going on and not in a good way.
Like...what? :teek:
From the review it doesn't look that bad, I mean it is what it is. Christmas Specials are usually pretty cheesy already, thats part of the charm of them in my opinion. Its definitely a sillier interpretation but it was also aimed at a younger audience who'd buy the VHS not older fans [by older I mean 8-12] and the suits get the job done, this obviously wasn't high budget release.
Even if I haven't seen it if that video truly shows the worst parts I didn't feel them to be that bad considering the points posted above, I think I'll likely watch it this year though. I think this is likely going to be easier to watch through than Coming out of the Shells, we'll see.
:PI also don't see why this couldn't be Movie Canon. Oh and as silly as the turtles act the Turtles Forever version of the OT still acted sillier. :PP

It can't be. I just watched the SW special yesterday, I don't know if there could be anything worse than that...

Watching it on YouTube. So far it's more entertaining than the third movie. :p I kinda like it.
I wish I had the tape. I'd probably do like Powder and watch it every year around Christmastime.
Edit: Actually, screw watching this on YT; I just ordered it, ha ha.

I always thought this came out sometime between 1989-92 when the cartoon was at its corniest. Nope, it was 1994, the year the cartoon became "darker"...it must have been compensating for this special.

Holy hell, that looks like my worst nightmare. I and another friend almost wanted to watch this as a kid. Totally dodged the bullet there.

I can't believe the Nerd didn't point out the Jamaiican accents when singing. I know the people posting comments did, but the Nerd never did.
Maybe Leo's Jamaican accent felt normal to him?

James Rolfe (Angry Video Game Nerd) has done a reveiw of the Turtles Christmas special.
Check it out here...
http://www.cinemassacre.com/2010/12/11/we-wish-you-a-turtle-christmas/
I'd never even seen or heard of this christmas special before I saw this, and I'm glad! It just looks awful...
James has also done reveiws of the Third movie, and also the NES TMNT games too. His site has numerous video reveiws, of terrible video games from the past, and if you haven't heard of this guy before, I highly recommend watching the other vids. Most contain adult humor..
Leave comments on the review, or write your own reveiw about the x-mas special below...
Hope you have a Merry Christmas folks!

His review brought back some bad memories. I actually owned that horrid thing on VHS. I also had the COOTS Tour tape. Honestly though he didn't need to review it because it makes fun of itself. His Turtles 3 review is pretty good but it lacks some information that actually raises even more questions as to why it turned out so poorly.

Yeah sorry, my post was kinda late too! I didn't see it on the first two pages, so thought I was the first (lol what a noob) Big thanks to the moderators for merging the threads.
@Powder, Man I can't believe you torture yourself, watching this every year! lol... Much respect for admitting that fact though! :thumbsup: I know I wouldn't... :)
Merry Christmas all! Hope you all got some cool Turtle stuff you wanted!

Ha, I watched it last night & laughed my shell off. I sang along as well (can't believe I know all the words now!). Merry Christmas to you also.

Anyone else surprised they mentioned Bebop and Rocksteady considering they were never in the any of the movie or New Mutation or any other live-action stuff.

Not at all considering it's cartoon based.
