There's been a few, namely the live action TNM and power rangers cross over. And comic and cartoon ones as well. How do you think the crossovers done could have been better? And in a real showdown between the turtles and the power rangers who do you think would have actually won? Never bought into the idea of the power rangers beating the turtles. It's like when superman beats the hulk. There has to be a bad guy and they always lose but if doomsday can kill superman without kryptonite the hulk certainly can.

Maybe if they considered them 'What if..." stories. You can get away with a lot more in the stories if they aren't meant to be canon.

A lot of the time they way they come together doesn't really make sense.

Crossovers work best when they're co-produced by the two primary staff teams who provide the most authentic take. So many crossovers show the usual quality with their own brand, but the imported brand tends to be a weak parody that stereotypes too much. It can even happen intraverse in the case of Turtles Forever. The Next Mutation was okay since although both that and PR: In Space were Saban prodcued and have pretty good chemistry in the crossover, despite TNM having its standard weaknesses. Crossovers that aren't specials or multi-parter episodes/issues also can also feel too rushed, in the case of what the upcoming Nick episode reuniting the original 1987 cast will do, which leads to quick cameos and severy limits or eliminates the role of supporting cast members.

Really thought out nice, and true. And the new series is teaming up with the OT turtles?! :tcry: also I hated how stupid the OT turtles looked in turtles forever but it was still a decent movie
