It's Out!!!!
 

it is 12:01 am on march 23rd and the TMNT movie has just officially been released....god im soo excitied that i cant spell...

And I'm going tomorrow at 2:30pm :tgrin:

I'm going to try and see it twice this weekend.

Wooooooo!! Yeah!

i'm going to the 1 pm OPENING showing in my city tomorrow/Friday!!! woohoo!!! This will be the best movie EVER!!! COWABUNGA DUDES!!!

I'm going at 12:30 PM Friday. Can't wait:D

Saturday night. :ohwell:

I'm at school without a car so I have no choice

I'm soooo excited my entire family is going at 5:30 tommrow!

Apperantly the earliest showing here is 12:50pm....so I'll be going to that one.

the earliest showing in this town is 4:25 PM and I already have my ticket. :D

It's not really "out" until the first showing. Which for me is Noon Friday. :)

I've never understood the whole TwelveOhOne (12:01) thing, and now I finally want an answer.

What is so freaking significant about 12 oh _ONE_? 12 oh oh (12:00) is just as much March 23rd as is 12:01. Does this mean society is full of people who do not know how time works???

They could even have the start time as 11:55pm march22nd, since there are usually 15 minutes of commercials.. I'm sure that'd make it easier for morons.

since ill be around tomorrow ill probably go to the 11:30 showing tomorrow. that's the earlies showing around here.

Oi... someone needs to take his medication.:D

It's for symbolic impact. The movie's official release date is Friday, March 23. Doesn't mean the projectors in every theater start at the same time. It means that it's "the big day." Like a birthday. Or a premiere date. I doubt she meant to insult anyone's ability to tell time. It's more of a celebratory proclamation than anything.

Also, twelve-oh-one, you could say, has more lyrical quality to it, as it lacks the clumsy harshness found in twelve-oh KLAWK, which rhymes with walk, block, gawk, ****, hawk, stalk. One rhymes with run, fun, sun, begun...

I think I overreacted in kind to your passionate post.;)

I'm still not sure why they would start it (I've seen this happen multiple times) at 12:01 instead of 12:00. They're both the same day. But, only the 12:00 is the true midnight showing!

Is this the thread that we're going to designate to discuss the new flick?

LOL.:lol: Oh, we'll talk TMNT to death I'm sure, once enough people have seen the movie to engage in heated discussions. My roommate just got back from the premiere and said it was awesome. :D I was told: "Just go in expecting to have fun." Can't wait for tomorrow...

Yeah, I'm really wanting to talk about it with fellow fans because I too thought it was awesome and love it a whole lot. For me it's pretty much the best the Turtles have ever been on the screen, counting movies and television alike.

The first showing in Toronto is at 12pm. I'm so there, called up everybody i know to go. I CANT WAIT!!!!

10:25-- and I'm up now at 6:05 and already running late.

at 10.25am today I will be at Universal Citywalk watching it with my fellow online friends....:D

and I'm off...


bye bye!

I'm going to see it today with wife and bro and his wife tomarrow with extended family and next weekend since it's my b-day.:P I don't think three times will be enough I'm going to have to find other people to go with or else I'll just have to go by myself.:lol:

i'm going with about twenty friends and family so hopefully that will help box office sales. haha

Its been getting bad reviews over the internet but thats cause the idiots expect it to be the cartoon and they dont know anything about the comics heritage. They tick me off. :x

I'm going at 8 PM on Saturday. Here's my TMNT Saturday schedule:

7:15--Watch TMNT 1
9:00--Watch Lost Episode
9:30--Old series episode
10:00--TMNT FF New episode

8:00--See TMNT 4!!

I'm going to the 9:55 showing tonight :-)

I already got the tickets, this show is going to kick ass! :lol: :o

Now that's a cool day. You don't have TMNT 3 and your watching you Old series DvD Right. Anyway I will see it Today at 2:30. I hope That day is great for you.

I just got back from the 10:30 am showing in Kokomo, IN... let me begin by saying this movie was worth the wait for me.

At times, I will admit, some of the animation is lacking, especially in the humans. However, most of the time the animation rocked... especially the close ups of the turtles. I felt like I could reach out and feel their "leathery" skin.

I'm a little sad that a few of the scenes from the book aren't in the movie, especially the end of the book... VERY VERY end of the book. (Those of you who have read it will know) However, the Nightwatcher/Jersey Devil scene is one of my favorites. The rest of the audience laughed along with me as well. The Leo/Raph fight scene was brilliant. That fight was the best action sequence of the movie (better than the final scene if you ask me.)

Anyway.... I had to post here. I may get around later this week to writing a full on review when I watch it again. (I plan on going Monday in between shifts to see it.)

(about TMNT 3) Well, I'm not made of time. As you saw, that schedule's a little tight.

Just saw the movie at 12:15pm and I thought it was pretty awesome. the fight sequences, animation etc. was top notch for a company that isn't really well known. Munroe, Imagi and all of the other staff did real good on this. It's several steps closer to what TMNT should be.

The sad thing was, and this has nothing to do with the movie, but only five people showed up including myself for the first showing. If that's any indication on how well this movie will do, yeah, I don't think there's going to be a sequel.:cry: I hope I'm proven wrong.

Going to see it with my sisters, with whom I watched the first three films when they were first released in theatres as well. Not sure what we're going to eat for dinner beforehand.. hm... Pizza maybe? :)

Wait a minute, isn't everyone still in school at 12:15?

Yeah, the target audience probably wouldn't be able to see the movie until the early evening anyway because Friday's a school day. Have faith!

I just got back from seeing it here at a 12:05 showing in Nashville. It's the last day of spring break and there was a busload of kids. FUN.




Excellent work Kevin. Truly.

I ended up going to the Noon showing (which was the earliest in the area). The theatre I generally go to was closed!!! Gods was I pissed!! I didn't even know!! I left the house at 10am to buy tickets...and when I got there I noticed a sign on the door that said "Out of Order. Sorry for the Inconvienience"...and I was like WTF?! I really didn't think much of it...so I went shopping..baught a book I'd been looking for for a year. BTW... TMNT books are on sale at Barnes & Noble. Buy 2 get 1 free. Went to Target where they were setting up the toys. They were just putting the Verses figs while I was there. I ended up getting the Karai figure I was looking for (didn't realize you could switch heads...weird).

By 11 the theatre still hadn't opened and I was pissed...so I called my step-dad and he dropped me off at the more expensive theatre up the road. $7 for a matinee....but well worth it! The theatre was packed...more adults than kids but the kids that were there were all excited. As I was leaving I watched as more kids came in...from the parking lot you could hear em exclaim "TMNT!! TMNT!! We're going to see TMNT!" :lol: I have never seen kids THAT excited for a movie!

I am going to a 4:25 showing then go get some pizza that is right next to the theater. I already have my ticket. If I went to the next showing, it would cost $7.50 vs. $5.50

wow im going to see it saturday but i hope its not soo packed....
btw should i sit it the front?
i saw that mostly because no one sits in the front row...
i havent even picked a showtime

Just got back from seeing it a little while ago, 2:30 showing and wow, it was fantastic! About 20 people in the theater, which is to be expected in the afternoon. Started getting a lot busier after.

I didn't read any spoilers about this, so I went into this expecting something a little more on the goofy side aiming more at little kids, but it wasn't. I loved the story and it far exceeded what I was expecting. The stone brotherhood were great, loved them. Great animation. When some people mentioned Don and Mikey didn't have very big roles, I was expecting not to see them much, but they were in the whole movie. Sure, it was focused more on Raph and Leo, but my two favs Don and Mikey were great! They were giving out Tribute magazine too which had a move poster in it, so I grabbed a couple.

can't wait for the DVD :D
…and hopefully a second/5th movie (however you look at it) after Karai's statements!

Hah... so I wasn't the only one who caught a $5 matinee? :D

I really doubt all the kids understood the story-- I'm not even sure that ADULTS all understood the story-- but I don't think any of them cared. It was a good movie.

Thanks, Kevin & all y'all :)

I do not think anyone really understood the story. I was the only one snickering during the movie. The majority of the audience were kids...some of them got nutty during the movie. But they did not ruin my fun. I went to get some pizza that I ended up giving the majority of it to some homeless people.
