favorite April
just wondering which April (likeness of April) is your favorite? cartoon-movie-action figure- whatever :tgrin:
|
I'd have to go with a tie between Movie I April and 2K3 April
|
I gotta go with OT April, 100% all the way.
|
My favorite would be the original cartoon April. I love how she was a news reporter. Makes a lot more sense.
|
Mine is a tie between movie 1 April and Mirage April
|
it has to be secret of the ooze april for me... love me some paige turco :)
|
My favorite April is the one from Mirage Vol 1 #11.
It's one of the few times she's actually a well rounded character. Close on her heels is Judith Hoag in the first movie. |
YAY. Another excuse for this
http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/b...cs/april-2.jpg 4kids April is definitely my favorite. She encompasses all that is good in a character such as hers. She is strong, kind, and smart. I think, all things considered, she is the most complete version of the character |
This is tough. I loved Sarah Michelle Gellar's April in the TMNT movie. And April in the original cartoon will always be "classic April" to me. But I think I'm gonna have to go with Veronica Taylor's 2003 cartoon April as my favorite.

Mine is April from the 4kids cartoon.

I am going to have to go with 2k3 April, jst edgeing out first movie April.
I think OT April is still be the standard, my only gripe with OT April is that she was to generic, she lacked character depth, but thats bc it was a kids show for the most part |
Here's a similar thread that has been active fairly recently:
http://forums.thetechnodrome.com/showthread.php?t=30821 Before this thread turns into a ludicrous mess of arguing and awkward photos, I figured I'd state my take. A lot of people think of Fred Wolf April O'Neil as the stereotypical damsel-in-distress who had to be saved "at least once a day." In fact, April wasn't all that helpless in the Original Toon, she just got in over her head far too often (as recently recognized by the Nostalgia Critic). Any human being wouldn't be much of a match against an army of androids, two muscle bound mutant punks, and a well armed ninja crimelord packing Dimension X technology. She also gets an undeservedly bad rap as being helpless and cowardly. While it's true that she may have often become a damsel-in-distress, it was usually because she always threw caution to the wind and got in over her head trying to get a story. The fact that the turtles always bailed her out probably gave her more confidence to keep taking foolish risks. Once she became close with the turtles, bad guys started to target her directly just to get at the TMNT. She really was a Lois Lane clone in that regard. Also, OT April had a number of hidden talents, the most notable of which were her phenomenal driving skills! I think the Archie Comics have probably done the best job with April's character development so far, making her a multi-dimensional character and a competent physical thread but doing it gradually (despite her weird supernatural backstory that was cited as an explanation for her quick progress in the martial arts). Given the choice between fighter & supporting character though, I'd prefer the Old Toon version over the "Lara Croft" portrayal seen in the Imagi flim. I like the idea that a person doesn't have to be a fighter in order to fight evil and help save the day. |

For me, I can only go by the Aprils in the films, OT April, Mirage April, and Archie April. Movie 3 is a blur for me...since I've blocked the movie out. My cousin and I pretend movie 3 never existed :trazz:
Movie 1 April I liked, since she had a, "I'm going to try to fight, even if I do fail!" Movie 2 April was okay too. TMNT April, alright, but found her a little bit boring, or maybe it's just because of her role in that film that bored me, along with Casey. OT April I didn't fully mind, and liked how she'd do almost anything for a good story. Brave and definitely would try to defend herself if she could, just was way too ambitious (Slytherin =P) and always ended up being in over her head. I still don't view her as being a damsel in distress, though. Sometimes it's not even her fault that she gets abducted or "kidnapped". Wrong place at the wrong time. I also liked the fact that her character did eventually mature to the point of knowing her limitations and not putting herself in danger for the sake of a story in the later episodes (Red Sky arc). Mirage April was okay in the early issues, but just grew boring after a while as a character in general. Casey and the Turtles were way more interesting to read about. Archie April I really did like, I suppose, in comparison to the others. I like how she gradually learned self-defense and martial arts. I also like the story with that boyfriend of hers. That was pretty interesting. The only gripe I had with her, just like with Splinter, was the character design. Man I couldn't stand it. She looked more like a Disney princess than what my view of April is. So, guess Archie April wins this for me followed by movie 1 and 2 April and then OT April and then Mirage April and then TMNT April. |
i liked the 2003 april more.

I'd have to say 2k3 and the first movie April are my favourites they are both quite different, but deep and realistic characters. 2K3 April worried a lot, and movie April was very happy and, like the OT cartoon was persistent but was probably a far bit smarter and multi-dimensional.

BTW this would be good as a poll (but then I'd have to choose! Damnit). |

OT April
Ah, nostalgia. |
Going to go with Archie comics April. Like others have said, I like how she gradually became more able to defend herself with martial arts. Plus, she eventually dropped the yellow jumpsuit. Sure, her later outfit was a bit more generic, but it least it provided a little variety. You'd think April would at least have that jumpsuit in different colors, like maybe black for when she wants something slimming.

OT April. Definitely.
|
Fred Wolf April.

Before I forget, OT April and Movie April are my two faves!
|
classic series April all the way. For the reasons OldManWinters gives. I'll say more later.
|
Judith Hoag's April is the best.
Mirage April had her moments... 2k3 April was pretty cool too. Hated OT April, she was too self-centered and annoying. |
OT April: Looks like Ripley from Alien (which is cool).
2k3 April: Could have been hotter. I admit, I think April in the second and third film was not bad. I'm hoping for her to look really beautiful (or HOT) in the new CGI series, comic, and movie. |
I didn't like Paige Turco's haircut OR acting in the 3rd movie at all.
