TF Armada has a kick butt updated theme intro why cant TMNT?
 

Im still puzzled...Transformers Armada has this freaking awesome technosih remake of the old theme song...yet what do we TMNT fans get? The biggest theme song abomination since the Poke-rap. Man, why oh why couldnt they have just did a cool tranecy electronic remake of the awesome original TMNT theme song? grrrrr...such a kick butt new TMNT show but with such a cringingly horrific theme song.

the song ain't THAT bad give it some credit!

it has pretty good guitar work and it teaches you how to count!

And that there are 4 turtles..I never knew that!!! 1-2-3-4 Turtles! Wow!

To most of the people, there is nothing wrong in the new theme. And you would want the old one in this show? :lol: :lol:

Yeah, "When evil Shredder attacks" kind of lines would really fit the new show. While I think the new theme is good as it is, it might be better with just a theme music without lyrics.

I don't have anything against the new theme.

LOL!!!! Ya got a point there! It's wholesome education, just like Sesame Street. :razz:

I love the new theme song. As Splinter said, "change is good."

I can't endorse it until they put Azure in the intro.

LOL!! :lol: Nah, I'm not a part of the TMNT universe. :razz:

But if they updated the old song, they would ruin your precious 80s theme song, and it would be "horrific" just like the early 90s.

And that's the problem! Not enough sex appeal in the new show. I mean, April's ok and all, with her belly shirts and pants that barely cover her hips, but what the show *really* needs is AZURE. Nothing screams "sexy" like a blue Ninja Turtle. :goofygri:

I think the current theme song for the new TMNT is right. I still like the first theme song from the old TMNT better, and I never get tired of hearing it either. At least, they didn't do a remake for the second theme song (third opening with some live-action scenes) of the old TMNT. That theme was oh-so-crappo.

[quote="Matthew138"]Ohhhh-kayyy...have you even heard the TF Armada theme song?
How is a kick ass techno update have anything to do with the early 1990's? ...*tumbleweeds*

I love the new theme song.

There were 3 theme songs composed for the new show, for them to pick through. That was the one that was picked, but another was released on a FoxBox CD by mistake. Have you all heard it? It's much better in my opinion and very similar to the original one. If you haven't heard it, I'll gladly upload it and post a link, but I think TMNT online has it on there already.

Yeah I tought Foxbox theme was better at the time, but now the new theme has grown on me.

I have to admit, I like the new theme.

:o Then how come my ears are bleeding?

No, that show is retarded.

No, because I have better things to do with my time. Like watching TMNT instead! :P

Now, beaker, what would you rather have?

1. A show with a cool theme song, annoying bit characters that take up all the screen time, a pair of writers who have NO experience in the field, and a complete lack of editors?

OR!

2. A show with a crappy theme song, well-thought out characters, excellent scripts that don't talk down to the audience, and a definate appearance of quality writers and editors?

Take your time now.

Well as I said many an occation on here, the only cool thing about TF Armada is the theme song(I mean its pretty much robots In Disguise: ie Pokemon) and my only complaint about the new TMNT is the theme song. Just was saying it would have been so perfect if the new theme song even came close to the rush of adrenaline of the original theme song. The new one is pretty disposable at best.

ALRIGHT BEAKER, THAT'S IT!!!!!!! YOU'VE FINALLY PUSHED ME TO SHOW YOU THAT IT REALLY COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE!!!!!!

THERE!

Now, Beaker, after listening to that one, which one would you rather have had? (I'm asking Beaker, nobody else answer).

Okie dokie, I won't answer. But prettier things than that have come out of my a$$. Just a thought.

I don't really like the new theme at all. I actually agree with Beaker on this one. I'd love a more modern-like remix of the old TMNT theme. No lyrics, though, just an instrumental.

I'm going to answer anyway and say that the FoxBox CD theme was way better in my opinion. Yes, now you can pelt me with tomatoes and garbage.

Josh

Leo, what about me? I am a sexy Ninja Turtle! (Well, not really!) :goofygri: But I am a cool guy!

Dear gosh, MAKE IT STOP, MAKE IT STOP! Ok you win...that had to be one of th emost upsetting, cringe inducing theme songs ever. (I couldnt even listen to the whole thing)

You kidding? The new April is by far the hottest female cartoon character I have ever seen...second perhaps only to some anime heroines...but still...wow. I usually dont say stuf flike that...but damn, where can I meet a girl like that?

lol what area of california do you live in? Girls like that are a dime a dozen, depending on what area of cali you live in!

*senses a flame war a brewing and steps in*

Okay guys (Beaker and Rez specifically), I'm going to have to ask you all to simmer down, or this thread will be ceased.

Your first and final warning. Thank you.

Actually he wasnt flaming me, he was giving me a link to the proposed TMNT theme song, and I would have to agree with him...dear gosh that sucked!

Am I the only one that thinks that the new intro could have been choreographed better? The intro animation to the original show can compete with most anime if you ask me. Afterwards it just went downhill. BTW whoever thinks that April is hot... needs some help.

And those who think that the Turtles are hot..? ;)

Transformers had a really cool theme song back in the 80's. And yes, it is still alright today. But Transformers Armada is a disgrace to giant robots. The Turtles theme (new one) sucks hard. Everyone disagrees with me but I'm telling you they should have had some thrasher band or metal band or something that sounded really cool come in and just start jamming on guitars with a lot of bass. It needs a song that would not only wake my ass up from the catatonic state I'm in at 10:30 am, but also resurrect the dead from the grave yard across the street. So I decided to write my own song called "It's 10:30 on the east coast time to kick some ass with the ninja turtles"....

It would be some guy screaming for like 1 minute about how the turtles kick so much more ass than you do, and that if you dont buy the toys they'll come and beat up your grandparents.

'NINJA TURTLES!
KICK ASS
NINJA TURTLES
KICK ASS
NINJA TURTLES
KICK ASS
AAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA

BUY THE TOYS
NINJA TURTLES
KICK ASS
THEYRE FOR GIRLS
AND BOYS
GO ON KICK ASS
IF YOU DONT
IM GONNA PUNCH YOU
KICK ASS

(REALLY BITCHING GUITAR SOLO)

NINJA TURTLES
KICK ASSSSSSSSS! (ENDS LIKE A SNAKE HISS)

the coolest part would be the animation during the theme, where it would be the Raphael bursting into a Girl Scout meeting and all the scouts would rush up to him and he'd be all pissed off and everything.

"Buy some cookies now dammit!" one would scream
but Raphael in a drunken berserker rage would punch them all and say something really witty at the end. And thats when you would know that every saturday from then on would be the greatest day ever.


Boy, I should lay off the dope...

Voltron...get help :P

Beaker: Sorry to have blown up like that...don't get me wrong, I'm not exactly thrilled with this new song either, but my whole point was it could've been much worse :D

Ok, but first I'm going to make a comic about Raph going ape nuts on some Girl Scouts.....

Hmm, I just listened to the FoxBox CD version, and boy... was I disgusted. It sounds like the band that plays all the Power Rangers openings did it. What is this Malibu crap? The cartoon is supposed to be somewhat noir, and yet this song version sounds to me like a bunch of pineapples and palm trees. Don't get me wrong I dislike the intro as it is, but man... this version sucks.

We're wasting too much space on this topic :) You either like the song or you don't. It's difficult to sway people in one direction or the other when it comes to music. Armada sux, hard. The theme song is cool, but what good does a theme song do you if the show ia an abomination and sin against man.

The new turtles song ("for me") is just as cheesy as the old one, and as a result, I love it.

Hey we can all agree on one thing. At least Vanilla Ice didn't write it to appeal to the fans of the second movie.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Cut like a ninja, slice like a razor Blade.

*arees whole-heartedly with Prowl* :D

Like it, hate it, or just get over it. Not the end of the world, yo!

*slowly backs away from Leo*
Heh... I didn't like the new theme at first, but now I really love it. And yes, I agree with Prowl too. :D

:( Why is Azure so afraid of me?! :cry:
