I'm definately down for that! The only thing that makes we wonder is the date of the post. This is really old news, shouldn't we have have heard something by now?

Jester 04-07-2008 01:30 PM

Exactly, heck WB and New Line are sister companies, I'm suprised it didn't happen a year ago. :(

Spitfire 04-07-2008 01:33 PM

I'm not. They whored out that ****** box set of all 3 movies instead. They also sold the movies for 5 each. At least at Best Buy and Wal-mart.

Marketers do anything to keep the green man down... :ohwell:

What do you mean?

Anyway, I much prefer a Blu Ray release. We got TMNT already we might as well add the other movies on the list.

Jester 04-07-2008 07:52 PM

That could work, they could even do a 2 disk special edition regular DVD then, like they did with I am Legend and are doing with Walk Hard.

EDIT: A petition, it's bee done.

gobo 04-07-2008 07:54 PM

More than once, I think...

dwaynewest 04-08-2008 10:26 AM

The Shelf 04-08-2008 11:26 AM

I'm curious. What exactly could they put on a TMNT special edition DVD? They could attempt to bring a few people back for commentaries, but it's not like we'd get much in the way of special features beyond one or two deleted scenes (if those scenes are even still in existence). I would think that if they made any behind-the-scenes stuff or interviews when the movie was made that they would already be available.

Juniorx 04-08-2008 02:37 PM

heres a link for TMNT Speical Edition dvd petition http://www.petitiononline.com/tmnt1se/petition.html .

Raven 04-08-2008 04:20 PM

I wouldnt hold your breath on getting any kind of special edition DVD. Even if they did try to go through with the idea what conidition is the material in any way?

If its in rough shape I can bet you they'll drop it right there, I dont see them trying to throw some money into cleaning up the footage.

Well not unless theres a huge Turtles fan in the upper offices with enough say, but I highly doubt well ever get anything close to what we are hoping for.

Kendamu 04-08-2008 09:43 PM

I'd buy it even if it were only a new single-sided DVD with cleaned up footage.

As far as everyone knows, there's at least the two movie-themed music videos, Spin That Wheel and Turtle Power. The rest would be new-to-the-public. Of course there's a music video for movie 2's song, Awesome (You Are My Hero) by Ya Kid K, that I'm more eager to see.

Same here. ^_^

AquaParade 04-08-2008 11:28 PM

I could see a blu ray coming along for the three movies in a couple years...think we just gotta give it time...look at where we are now with dvds...they are at the end of their run and soooo many movies have been re-released...I think the same could happen for tmnt on blu ray.

Spitfire 04-09-2008 02:46 PM

I don't even want a SE I just want a cleaner version and it already exists in the UK so it's already been cleaned up they just need to release it here. A remix of the audio would do well as well.

Revan 04-09-2008 03:00 PM

What is different about the cleaned UK version?

Yes, but what's the difference between I am Legend and the 1990's TMNT movies? I am Legend was pretty much made into a DVD while it went to theaters. These days they make a movie specifically for a DVD release. That's why they have a million special features on newer DVD's, even horrible flops like Norbit. I'm guessing New Line or Warners junked the unused footage for TMNT, and other things like that. I mean, UHF wouldn't have had any deleted scenes in the DVD if Weird Al didn't keep an old VHS of them.

drasgow 04-09-2008 04:23 PM

wasn't there a behind the scenes documentary "behind the shells"? they could put that on it.

Jester 04-09-2008 04:26 PM

It came out Pre-SotO (Secret of the Ooze).

gobo 04-09-2008 06:40 PM

And, as soon as Roseangelo comes by, she'll insist that it's more about the second than the first. Just you wait and see. :P

(That's friendly teasing, Rose. I hope you know that.) :embarass:

AquaParade 04-09-2008 10:27 PM

You know youre close with someone on a message board when you can dictate what their post's will be about:lol:

gobo 04-09-2008 11:29 PM

Great minds think alike is all. ^_^

Well it's cleaner, which is great, and the sound is better. Also the removed nunchuck scenes are back but that's only a treat for people who live in Europe because it was only removed from the movie over there.

thebrownranger 04-10-2008 05:24 AM

Man, I hope this works. I signed that petition online just recently. Does any body have TMNT Behind The Shells they could post up on youtube? I know there's part 1 on youtube, but the rest isn't there.

gobo 04-10-2008 02:10 PM

Really? I thought that tape was Macrovisioned...

thebrownranger 04-10-2008 02:36 PM

Ain't sure what thats means, but yeah its on youtube.

gobo 04-10-2008 02:43 PM

Copy-protection that would render any attempted copies unwatchable... I learned what a pain it is to get around while trying to put my Video Yearbook to DVD. >_<

Tinuvielsdreams 04-10-2008 02:59 PM

I have the VHS and access to a VHS to DV transfer deck...
ummm I mean, I would never do that, I certainly wouldn't even think about it...

Yeah I had to try it a few time for film projects in college, it's really a pain when you go through all that trouble to set it up and it doesn't work anyway. It was kinda funny though cause they were basically teaching us to bootleg.

Someone must have gotten it though cause it's on there...

dwaynewest 04-10-2008 03:33 PM

found it
 
this the nearest i could find

thebrownranger 04-10-2008 06:31 PM

Like I already said before man, its been posted on youtube. *sighs* doesn't anybody read what i post? :dead:

AquaParade 04-13-2008 06:19 PM

It really would be a treat so see a cleaned up version of the film. It does look pretty grainy...although I do wonder if that would steal away some of the charm...Imagine them trying to make it all bright and neon to appeal to kids.:lol:.....:|aw crap.
