Wow.........
 

Turtles which get mutated from some strange ooze, become human, and fight crime using nitjitsu.........who would have guessed ;-P

Yes the idea behind TMNT is so ridiculous that it has to work.

Yeah what's even more ridiculous is how a rat learned nitjitsu just from watching some guy! If he was so smart why didn't just escape from his cage!?

Because he liked his master.

Excatly. It's very Clear that Splinter loved Yoshi.

it IS amazing isn't it, I think I made a post saying something like "when you think about, it's pretty amazing how..."

whats ya talking about? this one time in band camp, same thing happened, i mean, god, when my neighbor is not fighting crime dressed like a giant bat, or morthing into a wolflike being with sharp knives above his fingers, he is teaching his pet rat nijitsu...:-)

I wonder how much pot kev and pete were smoking when they came up with the idea for the turtles

I think some british chick said that once in a segment from the BBC version of "I Love 1988".

um what did that have to do with this thread?

What does smoking pot have to do with TMNT?

Kev and Pete created the Turtles.

I once had a turtle, it was cute, it died a horrible death, until it died, I kept hoping it was going to mutate...
This thread is the most relevant one I could tell this story in... um, ok, bye

Probably should have bought some green ooze from Spencer's Gifts. That would have facilitated the mutation process.

Re: Wow.........
 

Exactly! How can you NOT like it?

lol I was surpised by the response I got from this.

What were you expecting?

I dunno, people to be mean and be like "um........yea"

I am glad that wasn't the case ;-P

well, that would be if you lied, but you have said the truth, and a wise man, or woman, doesn't argue with the truth...

I disagree I love to argue with people when there right! :P

and that's why we like you major pain.... :D

wait! did i say we like MP?! *shudders*

You should have seen my little sisters trying to sell the idea of the Ninja Turtles way back in the 80's. Here I was, an alumni of watching things with transforming robots and giant, 30 story radioactive monsters that shoot flames from their mouths, and I listened to my sisters telling me about bipedal turtles and talking brains. And I'm like, "Oooooooooooooooooookay." Like I had room to speak though. :lol:

the 1980s cartoons had many "far from reality" plots....the TMNT idea was neat. :D

Yeah... that's the same thing as it was for me. My bro is usually the blame for many of my interests, thyus he got me hooked on TMNT too. After all, I realized I also liked watching giant robots shoot at each other, four guys in brown jumpsuits running after ghosts, and funny looking animorph critters trying to recite the alphabet in one long burp.

Its funny how such a ridiculous concept can work so well. But hey, aren't we all glad it did?

Hmm, yeah, until my five year old (at the time) insisted on watching the TMNT cartoons, which I watched with her to see if they were okay, I didn't watch cartoons.
I thought the TMNT were pretty lame... until I saw an interview on 60 minutes with Kevin and Peter, and then they explained the concept behind the toon, and Kevin showed pages from the early Mirage comics, I thought, Hey, I want to read those... so... there it began. ;p

hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

whatever :P

It worked so well there were alot of Knockoffs like Radioactive Blackbelt Hamsters.

I want to see that 60 minutes, damn it!

:lol:
