Should Eric Sacks appear in the Nick cartoon and future tmnt versions?
 

What do you think?

He was actually my favorite character from the 2014 film and I think alot more can be done with him in future versions, so do you reckon he would make a good character if he was redone.

Eric Sachs is literally the worst TMNT character ever created simply because of what he represents. He was going to be a white man Shredder. No Oroku Saki, it was white man Eric Sachs as Shredder.

A disgusting 60 year old crusty old white man as THE Shredder. Sickening.

It's a disgrace to the character and an insult to the TMNT franchise. I HATE him. He's probably the only TMNT character I truly hate.

Just makes me sick.

Well he's kinda generic. I'd rather Venus return in some updated way.

I hate him. I HATE Eric Sachs.

I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him.

I HATE him.

I actually enjoy watching the beginning of the Dark Knight now because I enjoy seeing Joker kill him in the opening bank robbery scene by shooting him and placing the grenade in his mouth. I pretend its Eric Sachs because he's played by the same actor.

The character was originally going to be the Shredder, but then the movie was edited to make him a separate character. The problem then is that all you have left is an arrogant businessman who is also a scientist, a role easily filled by Baxter Stockman.

Although, as I was writing this, I realised that could be a pretty decent plot twist. You could there be a mystery of who Shredder is, most evidence points to the crimelord Oroku Saki, but then (with more discreet evidence pointing to him) it turns out to be Baxter Stockman, bum-bum-bum.

Dude, shut up. You got your point across, you don't like Sachs. No one cares. Please stop spamming it. You already spammed on the OOTS thread, you don't need to do it here.

Anyways, on the ACTUAL topic itself, I can see him having an okay appearance in the show, but I don't think he will stand out and he will be another generic villain. On the overhand, we don't have enough human villains in the show so him the series is not a terrible idea but not the best idea.

But honestly if I had to pick Sachs or Tatsu, I would pick Tatsu as Tatsu deserves to be in the 2012 series more than Sachs.

Finally, something new to trigger you with :lol:

lol, no. We have better evil business man villains to pick.

No. He was barely even a character in the one movie he was in. He was more like a leftover from when the movie was gonna be even worse, before they made all those edits.

No thanks.

plus, without Fictner's hammy scenery chewing, there is nothing special to Sacks as a character. "stupid rich" is his one note.

I may like the PD movies. But I ****ing hate Eric Sachs. One of the worst TMNT characters ever.

Eric Sachs should only ever be brought up again in the franchise as a joke, much like several others.

He was a little bit too much like an evil-leaning version of Max Winters from... the film right before it.

At least THAT guy's plan sorta made sense.

Sachs' plan was the intellectual equivalent of a Jackson Pollock painting.

And now we have Darius Dunn in the IDW comic doing the same thing.

How many evil business men do we need?

One more.

That's a businesswoman now.

Null becoming a female is one of the few gender changes I actually like. Hell has no fury like a woman scorned, literally.

Me too!... For, uh... Different reasons...


That reminds me, is she like a literal demon or just demon-like (think Nightcrawler)?

BTW, thanks for reminding me of the latest episode of South Park.

... What if Null is a mutant Hillary Clinton?

If IDW follows suit with who Null was supposed to be in the Archies then I guess IDW Null would have to be... .

Did they ever say who Null was supposed to be in real life?

Murphy did privately.

He did? How long ago was that? And how didn't I hear the news?

IDW will probably retcon Null into part of the Pantheon with Kitsune and Rat King.

Probably. He's supposed to be a bit meta... a bit of 4th wall breakage. If IDW just makes "her" into an actual demon, or part of some spiritual circle of beings... that's missing the whole point of the character.

Might've been the whole private aspect?

What he said.

Only if it's a crossover so 2012 (or other versions) can look at 2014 like, "Wait... this guy is you guys' villain? Seriously... "

Did he only tell a couple of his friends or something? I thought he would've done something like that on a blog something. :ohwell:

As an alias to Oruku Saki, but no more.

If they can think of a good story that Sacks would work in, why not bring him back?

Yes, I want him back.

I bet you revived this thread just so I would post in it. Eric Sachs deserves to rot in the fiery pits of hell and die a death of 1000 suns. Never before has these been a TMNT character that deserves to be erased from existence. I didn't even feel this way about Venus.

If they have a good story for him, sure. Null or Max Winters kind of use his function though.

I don't remember Null since it's been a while that I read Archie but he's not really like Max Winters; Winters was an aztec warrior who could live forever and had other warrior brothers, sure he was rich but that's about the only common thing.


Sacks is also a scientist and related to April which kind of steps on Baxter Stockman's shoes a bit but he's not such a bad character and I wish he would've appeared in OOTS since it feels like poor writing for him not to even be mentioned. At the end of the day he was not Shredder just as the turtles were not aliens and while he was a bit unnecessary you can work with him in a new interpretation. A foot leader who is a businessman and knows some science? Why not instead of some generic guy in that role.

Dear god, someone asked this and someone revived the thread? As many things I hated about that movie, Eric Sachs was the one thing I hated the absolute most, mostly because his inclusion triggered many of the plot's faults. I think Cubed summed up my own thoughts on this subject pretty perfectly:

Well Shredder is in hell, perfect time for Mr. "Stupid Rich" to step in as his replacement.
