Official Ep Discussion S4 Ep 4: Outlaw Armaggon
 
Today's the day...the day we encounter televised version of Armaggon.

In this episode Lord Dregg hires Armaggon, a notorious space bounty hunter to apprehend the turtles and their companions.

A lot of people have been looking forward to seeing Armaggon on screen...is he everything you expected? Is he better then you expected? We don't know, but we look forward to finding out.

All I can say is that it's about time. I'm excited. Hopefully after this episode we can get a figure of him fInally.

GoldMutant 11-15-2015 09:30 AM

Armaggon, don't disappoint. :ohwell:

Something I don't get though, where are Machias and the other mods? This is the fourth episode in a row now; I did see Jester during the Wyrm thing, but what happened?

Vicky82 11-15-2015 10:01 AM

No livestreams working :cry: So have to wait till those other 'sites' to upload the episode.

No, Dregg in this show is Peter Stormare.

Thanks I knew he sounded familiar. Love Stormare

I've been going on and on about how this series is just not at the same level of quality as it could be recently, but I gotta admit, this is the first episode of Season 4 I actually thoroughly enjoyed.

xenopokemon 11-15-2015 10:33 AM

This episode was a lot less Armaggon and a lot more "OverMind". He felt a little unnecessary, but he did build character for Fugitoid.

pannoni1 11-15-2015 10:33 AM

Pretty good episode, it was a great way to learn more about Honeycutt's origin, Overminds' functions, and of course the notion that the battle will only get more intense with the ever-popular catch phrase at the end, a good contrast from the Wyrm episode that used the rewind button as an escape route. The ship must be pretty strong if it can survive Armageddon's force.

Grade: 8/10

kelligrafie 11-15-2015 10:35 AM

Is it not slightly rude to call Leo, Captain Leo, when it's Fugitoid's ship? :lol:

(I get it's just a nickname, based on Captain Ryan and they're humouring Leo)

Blimey that was quick. I bet Max gets to watch the episodes before everyone else does.

Can you please share the link? :)

xenopokemon 11-15-2015 10:40 AM

What did everyone think of Armaggon's character? I love his voice, a little western with "ain't" and "y'all" fits his outlaw self quite well. He pulled a Boba Fett at the end though, thruster got hit with a sword and spiraled out of control into an untimely demise.

The way Leo said "Armaggon!" made it seem like he 'cared' about him slightly. I'm starting to think Armaggon isn't evil he's just doing a job.

NinjaPug 11-15-2015 10:44 AM

That was my favorite episode of the season but thought they wasted Armaggon. His character was essentially just used to set up the real plot.

Armaggon looked awesome though. Great design.

GoldMutant 11-15-2015 10:48 AM

After being disappointed by these last three episodes, thank God this episode was worth it. By far it's the best episode of season 4 thus far at least of the current episodes and outside the Triceratons, Armaggon was the best new character. Praise be the Ron! (Voice kinda seems like Killer Croc from the Batman somewhat)

My main gripe of the episode is probably the underdevelopment of April saving the day while minimal to the sudden introduction of the robots, and not enough Armaggon! Seriously, we need more of him, kinda feels like a lackluster introduction when he really wasn't the focal point, kinda feels like false advertising.

Besides April's powers getting improved (about time), I really wish this robot was more fleshed out, it just feels like a left field outing. Though some of the stupidity of Casey is a bit grating yet again after Wyrm and freezing plus the spice not being addressed (please!), any issues I have with the episode are limited. It's a good episode, not great but something I'd revisit again.

The spice isn't important enough to mention again, it was a drug Dregg was selling we know all we need to know about it. And I'm pretty sure it was mentioned when Dregg was talking to Armaggon although I could be remembering incorrectly.

Tetsu Deinonychus 11-15-2015 11:00 AM

My first "New Episode Disscussion" in a long time. :)

It's cool to finally see Armaggon in animated form, and I like this interpretation so far. I kinda wish he had played a bigger part in the episode, but I get a feeling he'll be showing up again.

The real villain of this episode was a decent HAL9000 homage, but to me the episode's highlight was some character development for Honeycutt. And, I love that the illustrations during the flashback had a similar style to the original comic.

The Happy One 11-15-2015 11:02 AM

Wow that went quick! I thought it was a pretty good episode!

It was so nice to see more on Professor Honeycutt and his struggle on being 'just a machine'. Though I wish we saw more of our Armaggon, the Overmind idea was pretty awesome, too:D

+More revelations on April's psychic powers!

+Captain Leonardo taking names :lol:
+I'm liking the change of scenery in each episode. Gives us variety.

+Jaws refrences, of course:)

+Fugitoid is a blessing and Ron as Armaggon was just the best!
+Raph being a loyal bro and waiting for Leo *sniff* Bros helping Bros!:lol:

- It went so quick! I look up and it's already two minutes left.

I give it a 8/10 as well. Good job Turtle Team:tthumbsu:

What? The spice is pretty damn important. It's why Dregg's hunting the Turtles to begin with.

I meant to say it wasn't worth elaborating on.
Edit: He didn't mention it and upon re reading GM's comment it appears that I misconstrued the meaning of his state ment as "elaborate on the spice", my bad.

TigerClaw 11-15-2015 11:11 AM

I thought the episode was pretty good, We have not seen the last of Armaggon, though not quite like the one from the comic, but he kicked ass.

Majcvd49 11-15-2015 11:47 AM

So how did the episode lay out exactly? Did they all get taken down one by one and then escape or something? We're April and Casey used as bait?

asfaloth12 11-15-2015 12:01 PM

Well, that was a good episode. Absolutely love the Fugitoid/Professor Honeycutt. His design is adorable, and his voice actor is doing a great job. I also liked the introduction to Armaggon; look forward to seeing him in future episodes. Glad to see them developing April's powers more; I've really been liking her character lately.

Cjmart019 11-15-2015 12:08 PM

Good episode. I hope they make an Armaggon figure/vehicle. April has terrible aim.

I'm sure they will.

Majcvd49 11-15-2015 01:21 PM

Can someone lay out what happened in the episode?

Ninturtle 11-15-2015 01:25 PM

Brandon Aumon told me he'll that he'll be back.

they will and Playmates will find a way to **** it up. Also Raph was pretty good in this episode but the "raph fans" will find something to complain about.

Now all we need is an explanation to how Fugitoid already became affiliated with the Utroms.

Ron Perlman sounds different than I remember. The last time I heard his voice was on the Adventure Time episode Gold Stars.

Tetsu Deinonychus 11-15-2015 01:59 PM

I don't think I noticed it was Ron Perlman. I gotta say he fits the character.

drgon78 11-15-2015 02:13 PM

Good episode, liked that there was more then one threat.

OrangeNinja1987 11-15-2015 02:17 PM

Great episode. I wasn't expecting much but it definitely exceeded my expectation by quite a bit.
While I love all the new space elements, I still love seeing a traditional battle with their regular ninja weapons. But I wonder how they could understand Armaggon when they didn't have their space suits on, which have the alien-language translators? Does Armaggon just know English?
Loved the creepy vibe. Armaggon was great. Fugitoid gets better each episode (I was hoping they'd elaborate on his backstory).
The dumbest part was when they were being turned into robots. How does covering your face in metal make you "mechanized" and give you a robot voice?
The fight scene between Leo and Armaggon at the end was amazing, even if it was short. I loved that Raph saved Leo this time, after so many times of it being the other way around. It would have been even cooler if Raph stayed behind with Leo to help in the fight, but I'm not complaining.
Overall: 8/10

cookie jar 11-15-2015 03:11 PM

Really good episode. :)

Vicky82 11-15-2015 03:21 PM

Wow what a great episode, love Fugitoids back story. loved that the Turtles had to face 2 threats. Armaggon was awesome he's such a badass. I love that Leo was concerned for him when the space station started blowing up. I also love that Raph went back for Leo.

I'm guessing that this episode was based from the movie 2001: A space Odyssey.

Fugitoids backstory reminded me of IDW issue 44/45. I wonder if they could actually have one of the turtles badly injured (obviously not too graphic) and transfer there brain into a robot while there body recovers.

Etsyturtle2 11-15-2015 03:52 PM

Today was armagonn? I missed it, I went to the dry cleaners and had mcdonalds for lunch.
Can anyone point me to where i can watch it? If illegal, never mind, I'll watch it on demand.

BubblyShell22 11-15-2015 04:03 PM

I loved this episode. Loved Fugitoid's back story and how he doesn't want to lose his humanity which tied into him being possessed by Overmind. I also loved Armaggon and even though he wasn't in it a lot, it's obvious he's coming back. Loved the way Leo shone in the episode and how Raph tried to save him. I figured it would be April who would have to save Honeycutt, and she did just as she did for Splinter. Overall, a very decent episode. In fact some of the robots reminded me of the Cybermen in Doctor Who and I could swear I saw one that resembled a Dalek.

kelligrafie 11-15-2015 04:18 PM

17 minutes in we have a possible nod to some of 1987 Krang/Shredder's robots.

I can't remember the exact episodes but they look awfully familiar.

I WISH we could get Bill Nighy. Or Jim Broadbent, who could've made a rather good Fugitoid himself.
