Well....in my case I love all of them....! :tgrin:
....Just some fans are more "fans" of some incarnations than others....Usually the criticisms/comments/discussions are often more stringent or are more associated with the original idea which first approached ... |

Jealousy, I suppose. ^_^
The 2000s' version of TMNT was just a bit more rational and thought-provoking. The more casual fan of the cartoon from their childhood probably liked the fact that it was mindless entertainment; no thought required to enjoy the show. Other than that, I'd assume they just have a stick up their butts about how nothing could possibly be as good as when they were kids. Some people are like that. :ohwell: |

Me personally I loved the show and the movie. People who didnt like the movie jst didnt like the CGI or the fact shredder wasnt in it and there is a wide array of opinion on why or why not the person doesnt like the movie |
I tended to fall in both camps. At the time, I didn't like the new 4kids series because I just couldn't believe they'd just rehash the Fred Wolf version I'd grew up with, plus I missed the cheesiness/comedic aspect of the original. Also, given I was in college and had lots of stuff to do, would have rather enjoyed other things. It was simply not knowing and appreciating the Mirage Comics which I had never even read at the time.
For the 2007 movie, I hated how it was in CGI and not 2D or live action, which is what I'd prefer, plus I felt that it was designed for "the younger set" and thought I wouldn't be appropriate watching it, given I was about to graduate college and felt like falling back on Turtles wasn't the smart thing at the time. The 4kids has really grown on me nicely, but I'm still divided on reflecting on the 2007 movie. |
Seeing Turtles Forever got me into the 4Kids series. Can't believe I missed it the first time around!
|
The 4kids series was very well received, I don't see how anyone can say otherwise. I was around when the show was just starting in 2003 and there was a ton of hype around its debut, and the show had a massive fan following of praise at least up until Fast Forward, which got unwarrented hate because Season 5 was skipped at the time.

There were maybe 5 FF eps that I thought were crappy and pointless, I liked most of the others. |
People didn't like the new movie because Shredder wasn't in it. People didn't like the new series because it was serious and lacked goofy characters like Krang, Bebop, and Rocksteady. Yes both had other shortcomings but the #1 complaints I hear from casual, and oddly even hardcore fans, are what I mentioned. Casual fans seem to be harsher towards 2K3 and kinder to the movie as where hardcore fans seems harsher to TMNT and much kinder to 2K3.
Some people just only like the OT and won't accept anything else. |

Are there fans who like the 4kids series and nothing else? Or the movies? Or even Next Mutation? |
I've seen fans who hate the OT and love 2K3 but have never read or cared for the comics. The others you mentioned no but I'd be quite frightened if there was someone who only liked Next Mutation.
|
What would be really messed up is if there were people already who only liked the NickToon, and nothing else.

Do you imagine a New -Wave- Fan:.....What people talk about TMNT in forums Before the only true Nick´s TMNT ???? :tlol::tlol::tlol: |

I'm just getting ready...:P |
The key word there was "already". I don't doubt that there is someone in the world who already has their mind made up that NickTMNT is the only version they like. But, seriously... How messed up is that? >_<
|
Most of those "OT only" fans don't even watch the original cartoon anymore and never even bought the DVDs.
They just vaguely remember whatever they can in their memories and leave it at that. They're not real TMNT fans since they were just people caught up in the fad and drifted out never to return. |
^^ those are the "casuals". I don't have a problem with casuals, I mean, I'm a casual fan of Thundercats. I liked the old toon alright and the new toon is pretty cool, but I'm by no means a hardcore fan of Thundercats. And if someone is the same way with TMNT, fine. But once they start thinking that their opinion on the Turtles matters, then I get pissed.

As far as the cartoons, I think it requires a lot more skill to write and perform comedy like the OT did, than it does to write action or the occasional drama like 2K3. Comedy is much more difficult. Plus with the OT I can watch it now as an adult and pick up on jokes or references that I didn't understand as a kid. I'm not sure the same will be true for more recent turtle projects. Don't get me wrong, they're still done well. As I say, I just didn't find them that thought provoking. Certainly not as much as Batman: The Animated Series for instance. You don't have to agree; just my opinion. :) |
The 4kids series was just a very well done action cartoon with some character development along the way. The set pieces and choreography during most of the action sequences was done exceptionally well.
Its true the 4kids series really failed with humor, only a few small times did jokes ever work on the show, but otherwise it was a well done show with a likeable cast. |
I grew up with the original series but I also watched the 4kids and saw tmnt in theaters. I like them all there's some episodes of the 4kids series that are really good and I like the action and darker tone of it to. But at the same time the original is "golden" to me its what I grew up with and I love it. And I love going back and watching them on DVD. O to go back to 1990.

In the Titanus episodes after Raph/Don stay there and Mike/Don walk off, Don remarks that there's only two of them now. Mike responds, "Does that mean the show will only be half as long next week?" Raph also kept up his sarcasm through those seasons too, even if he got slightly meaner. |

In my case, the 2k3 series seemed to sneak under the radar (the last turtles series I'd watched in full was TNM), but I also wasn't online in a turtle fandom back then either. I wouldn't even know about the upcoming Nick series if I hadn't been frequenting this board. Anyway, I do remember coming across an ep during its original run in about 2005 or so, but I couldn't fully get into it because it was too serious for me, but I can't judge the series based on that alone. I just never went back to it. I also didn't feel like waking up early just to watch it (I was in my mid 20s at the time). I might watch the 2K3 series one day...even with the whole Shredder fiasco for it.
As for the 2007 film, I didn't mind it too much, but I did have my nitpicks with it, like how I felt the focus was on Leo and Raph way too much and how, to me, Donny and Mikey were gypped for it. I didn't find Casey and April interesting either....well, their roles anyway. To me, movie 1 will always be the best of the turtle films. Seems to have a nice balance, and it didn't seem to overly focus on any of the characters. My main nitpicks with movie 1 was that it was way too short and we never did figure out what Danny's problem was and why he felt this need to join up with the Foot Clan. Quote:

I hate it, the 2003 version is a convoluted mess to the point where the plot gets ridiculous and all they do is talk talk and talk( like what happened to justice league unlimited)... and lets not forget the time travelling business and the multiverses. The Turtles should be keep basic ( sewer,new york) and the enemies. should be the ones invading new york. I believe that the best way to enjoy the original story is via the comics. As for the movie.... Where Shredder?? that is all....0 stars. I always hate adapted stories... they will never work because they always have to cut things for time or if they try to adapt it to 100% they are transfered to the screen as a convoluted mess that can last for 6 hours. The 87 series is superior because the turtles are funny ( in the 2003, 4 unfunny guys)

Possibly casual...

To be honest, I really have no clue what he just said...
