- Teenage Mutant Ninja.....(what other animal?) -

Has anyone ever thought about what other animals the producers could have used instead of turtles and if so, would it have been as much of a sucess as the Turtles? It helps if it rhymes with the rest of the title, (Teenage Mutant Ninja Newts?).....lol

Teenage Mutant Ninja... KITTIES!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anarky 10-14-2003 04:50 AM

Jellyfish?

Reznorite420 10-14-2003 06:33 AM

Gorillas...at least that's what this one "punk-loving" guy at my former school suggested..

"Why out of all animals did they have to choose TURTLES? Why not GORILLAS? THEY can actually fight and are strong! But turtles? That's stupid!"

Look who's talking...keep in mind this is also one of those typical "Mirage-retarded" people who thinks TMNT started as the cartoon. Here was his reaction to after I told him about how it really started:

"OK, but first off how did they [Eastman and Laird] figure that a goofy comic full of turtles in colored bandanas..."

At that moment I had to stop him. From day one that guy thought he was right about everything, not just TMNT. He and even got into a debate on whether Weird Al Yankovic actually made his original songs (he firmly believed that he didn't, but in fact his original:parody ratio is about 50/50).

I'll stop ranting now.

Lizards, they'd fit in pretty well the entire sewer thing, plus they can climb walls

Jephael 10-14-2003 07:33 AM

I wonder how they would've looked as Racoons. That would've made the colored bandana theme look more interesting.

Raphaella 10-14-2003 08:02 AM

I wud have sed lizards too, but what about rats? what if they had decided to use Rats for the turtles (since there are coutless down in the sewers) and Yoshi turned into someting else such as a lizard - or maybe even stayed as a rat? A whole family of mutant rats in the sewer.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Rats?

Lol - funny idea - what if it had been birds? Okay, stopping there.

Kali 10-14-2003 10:31 AM

Well, I could see lizards, rats, or cats as well. But also dogs. Though a mixed cast would have been neat as well...

Jephael 10-14-2003 10:39 AM

Now there's a possibility. If my knowledge serves me correctly, Eastman's original TMNT drawing was of Michaelangelo. So what if Leo had been a salamander, and Donatello a racoon like I brought up before?

Mars-Chan 10-14-2003 10:41 AM

Why change them? They're fine the way they are! :D

Blaze DTGG 10-14-2003 11:05 AM

I don't think anyone wants to change them .but it's interesting wondering what could have been.

what if they had picked animals more fitting of each individuals personality. what animal would they be?

I think it has to do with a turtle being so small and slow and a ninja being so big and agile. Reality-wise, it would be impossible to have the two combined as one. Kevin probably created a turtle as a ninja just for laughs or pure enjoyment and never thought it would grow as popular as it is today. Why did Bob Kane choose a bat, or Stan Lee choose a spider? It's hard to figure out where these guys come up with such ideas. I'm just happy they're here now with us. :)

Oh piff.. everyone knows a green Teenage Mutant Ninja Pony would've been the waay to go! :D

R-iZZy 10-16-2003 11:43 AM

I'm seeing... Teenage Mutant Ninja BUNNIES!!! Michaelangelinio would be crazy for carrot soup. Leonardi would probably brush up on the art of hopping some twenty feet high in the air. Donamushi would definitely be thinking of different technologies all powered by carrot juice. Raphion would probably be hop kicking people on the streets. As for Splinter, I'd rather he be a rat... rats and bunnies always seemed like a perfect couple to me!

BUNNY POWER!!!

Geez, you can get Samurai Fish online, but not old cartoon episodes? This so called "cyberspace" is pretty scary.

I've created years ago a Samurai horse and a flying fox(that's a big cute bat). I named the bat after Toshiro Mifune's Kikuchiyo from 7 samurai, i love that character. THe horse , i never did much with.
