SDCC 2015 Thread
 

Nick announced the details on the SDCC panel this year.

Friday, July 10
Nickelodeon's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles – Turtle Power! – Secrets of the ooze are revealed by the mutated minds making Nickelodeon’s hit animated series. Moderated by the internet’s biggest fanboy, Andre Meadows (aka “@BlackNerd”), the panel features executive producers Ciro Nieli and Brandon Auman as they provide sneak peeks into season four and discuss the epic and bizarre adventures in store for the four talking turtles. Also on hand will be the extraordinary and talented voice actors of our TMNT world; Seth Green (Leonardo), Rob Paulsen (Donatello), Greg Cipes (Michelangelo), Eric Bauza (Tiger Claw), Fred Tatasciore (Rocksteady) and more special guests! Booyakasha!

Hopefully we get more Season 4 info and character sketches like we did for past seasons. I'd love to see Lord Dregg's design and more of the Triceraton/Fugitoid arc they have planned.

I'm guessing the first 7 or so episodes of Season 4 will all be set in Dimension X, similar to the 7-part Northampon arc in Season 3. Only this time getting to see the Triceraton arc finally done in the show will be a good thing.

Lastly, a confirmation that a Season 5 is being ordered will be nice

So....Andre's the moderator, eh? Man, how do you get to be a "Professional Geek."


...and I ain't about to bite any chickens' heads off.

You can't have any real open public opinion of anything and have to kiss the asses of people constantly.

Three hundred thousand youtube subscribers doesn't hurt.

Well, I'm out then. :D

I'd suggest asking if that missing person milk carton in The Noxious Avenger will be important? And why we haven't seen Kraang Prime in Battle For New York.

Sean Astin has attended the last three Comic Cons, but he won't be at this one. I guess he has something else going on that day. I think it's great that Andre is moderating it.

I think it will be awesome to have Andre as the moderator who knows he might even show us things we couldn't see on other YouTube channels couldn't record

Sounds like it'll be cool. Hope we get confirmation for a season 5 either before SDCC or during it.

How is it that Andre manages to host the Nintendo Championships AND moderate the SDCC?! What's his secret?!

Maybe its because he's a professional TMNT fan. That was kind of acknowledged in the episode The Noxious Ranger. The very episode that possibly further supported the rumors that have been going on since The Invasion.

It helps to have an easy-going personality and not being a stuck-up curmudgeon!

Many professional game reviewers on Youtube and Twitch would like to have a word with you. :P

Andre has really proven himself to be quite the fan, hasn't he? :D

Well unfortunately I will never be like that because holding back my true thoughts and opinions on something makes me feel like I'm keeping secrets in fear of losing 'studio acknowledgement'. To me that's paranoia.

Still, I'm happy that Andre is living the dream life. I wish him well at SDCC. :tsmile:

That's insane. Half the people here are bigger fans than he could ever hope to be. Where's their tickets?

I think Andre is just a more well-known TMNT fan. It would make sense for them to decide that Andre is moderating the event.

I hate when people give credence to these YouTube personalities that think they are celebrities.

Well, technically, they are celebrities. Over 2 billion people have a Youtube account, so they would have no problem subscribing and supporting the Youtubers that they find entertaining. Eventually, if they have enough subscribers(fans), they can become well-known, almost like a celebrity.

You too can host an upcoming nick event! Just be a shill that fakes excitement at the drop of a hat!

Hey, I like Andre. He's the only thing I watch on YouTube next to Screen Junkies and How it Should Have Ended.

This guy is hilarious, and brings back a lot of nostalgia back from my childhood (good and bad). I'm happy he gets to do this. I mean, I think he is critical about certain things, but he loves the show. Some of you guys feel he should be downright critical, but that's not healthy all the time.

You can stick with your views, but he shouldn't be punished because of how different he is from you. He's a true fan in his own right.:tcool:

Black Nerd rules, and I'll take him over Smosh any day.

I agree with Bauer. I like Andre. How do we know he's holding back his opinions? Maybe he just really enjoys the show. From time to time he can be critical about some things. To be honest I'm a bit like that. I've never had any major issues with the show and I don't feel the need to go on massive rants about it. Just because he's not like a lot of people on the forum doesn't mean he's not voicing his opinions. I wouldn't watch his show if he was complaining about the show the whole time. Everyone is just so negative and complain about the same things over and over again. Complaining and ranting is just the norm on the forum and the Internet in general. If you're not, apparently you're not being honest. People can have and say whatever opinion they want but I'm just defending Andre because I don't think he deserves to be seen as a fake. Some people are easily excitable.

Exactly. Andre is a fan just like all of us, and he's lucky to get to moderate an event like SDCC. I believe Michele Ivey (Iveyangelo) also moderated an event at a Comic Con once. So, there you go.

Yeah, just because Andre doesn't find as many problems with an episode as another fan or isn't as cynical doesn't mean that he's being dishonest or anything. He's definitely criticized a couple of TMNT-related matters in the past. (Mikey's fluctuating intelligence, the dull period in Northampton, the 2014 movie in general, etc.)

The Friday SDCC schedule is up. The TMNT panel is at 2:45 PM EST.

So that's about 10:45pm in the UK. Looks like it's going to be a late night for me if I want hear all the juicy info.

Edit

Wait it says here it's 11:45am till 12:45pm

San Diego isn't in the EST zone

So if this is Friday where is the hype? This thread had almost fallen to page 2 before I bumped it up. Nobody cares about seeing previews to Season 4?

It'll blow up on Friday. It's Sunday.

Nothing to really talk about until Friday but here's what I hope we get from the panel:

- Season 5 confirmation
- Visuals of Fugitoid and Triceratons

Hopefully whatever art they share is released officially online immediately after like they did in 2013.

Congrats to Andre for getting to moderate it. :tcool:

The only things I'm interested in from this panel are confirmation of season 5 and possibly some Blu-ray releases of the show? It's about time, don't ya think? :P

I Wish They Had Live Streaming So People At Home Could Watch And not Have To Wait For People To Post Bits And Pieces Of The panel on YouTube :(:cry:

I agree!
:l

Why even charge admission for the convention, right? :trolleye:

I feel you, but like, ya know, if you want the full experience, you've got to be there. That's kinda the point. You buy a pass, & you get to see new/exclusive content before the rest of the world, if they even get it after the fact.

It wouldn't be fair to those that paid 100 to 1000 dollars for their Comic Con Tickets if they did that no would it.

They stream panels at a lot of conventions now. Hell, you can buy BlizzCon on PPV. It makes sense. They could stream every panel at the con and it would still be a huge sold out event. Its not about learning about the new content, which is always online minutes later anyway. Its about the networking opportunities, the swag, getting to meet the creators, and just experiencing the content in person.

Yeah I guess you're right about that it would be unfair to the people that paid to go

I don't think season 5 will be confirmed. I don't even know if we'll GET a season 5.

It's starting to look like this year is a bit of a bust.

No Marvel, no new Star Wars info, No Paramount...

So Maybe a DC trailer for BvS?

Hardly worth the price of admission.
