Bebop & Rocksteady
 
I just like Shredder's henchmen. I liked them better actually before they were mutated, but they were always good for a laugh later on when they appear more regularly after Baxter was gotten rid of. I love that scene on the Technodrome in 'Enter The Shredder'

SHREDDER: Bebop, Rocksteady...destroy them!

ROCKSTEADY: Rar! With great pleasure master Shredder!

Both goons charge the Turtles.

MICHAELANGELO: Jump for it!

KONK! Both goons run into themselves.

SHREDDER: You idiots!

DONATELLO: The mutation didn't up their IQs any....


Also when they trap them in the zoo...

RAPHAEL: Now you boys have fun together and we'll be back to check on you...in about ten years!

:lol:

I do kinda wonder what happened to them while they were in D-X, before they seemed pretty smart, when they came back their IQs seemed to drop a few points. Always figured either the animal sides were getting stronger or Krang decided to experimant on them.

eh?
 
when were those retarded characters ever smart??

Karpo_007 12-01-2002 10:50 AM

Never. But atleast they could fight in the first season.

heretic888 12-01-2002 10:57 AM

hmph
 
i wouldnt call running into each other the definiton of 'fighting'.

Karpo_007 12-01-2002 11:05 AM

Well Bebop almost broke splinters neck.

Actually, in Leonardo is missing Bebop and Rocksteady get the best of the TMNT when Leonardo isn't with them. The tmnt are winning at first but then Rocksteady throws Mikey into a machine and the turtles go over to see if he's ok and then Bebop and Rocksteady slam a machine into them.

Shellfox 12-01-2002 12:20 PM

Ok maybe smart was the wrong words but the first 5 eps, they actually worked pretty well, I mean the fights actually seemed like they were hard for the guys to win. Maybe its just cause they were new and the guys learned how to deal with them as the show progressed, but they seemed to have skill in the early eps that disappeared when they came back from D-X

Karpo_007 12-01-2002 12:23 PM

Thats because the whole show changed. The first season was action adventure, the rest were just slapstick comedy.

I never appreciated Bebop and Rocksteady for their physical prowess, or their ability to fight. I always liked those two goons because they could make me laugh. I know some people think they were stupid, but since I love to laugh, I thought the comedy they brought to the show was great. There are so many great episodes that feature those two bungling mutants, it's hard to decide which one to recommend:

Super Rocksteady and Mighty Bebop
Plan 6 from Outer Space
Rhino Man

Those are just a few worth mentioning if you're looking for something to make you laugh.

"It's RHINO-MAN!!! And his trusty side-kick, Mighty Hog."
"Hey! I thought you was gonna be the trusty side-kick!"

Rocksteady and Bebop, from "Rhino Man"

Karpo_007 12-01-2002 12:27 PM

Well I don't think that comedy is all bad. There were some comedy in original TMNT but the cartoon went overboard. Kids seemed to like it tough. Hell I even liked it when I was a kid. I stil like some episodes but i guess the show was made for younger audience.

Mondo_Gecko 12-01-2002 01:33 PM

Bebop & Rocksteady were cool, yeah they were part of a great show. And they do change a bit i noticed that after watching the first five episodes a few weeks ago. Rocksteady's voice is diffrent its more tougher and gruff then it was before. But i just loved them and its going be hard to have a new show without them, its going take me a while to adjust to with the whole new look and e verything, but its still going be a great show i'm sure.

Karpo_007 12-01-2002 01:51 PM

Probaby much better than the original. If the Overview is true, it will be hard work for them to make it bad.

Nturtle 12-01-2002 01:56 PM

don't count on it just yet Karpo, there are still plenty of ways this new show could be bad

Karpo_007 12-01-2002 02:07 PM

True. But I trust it wont.

Nturtle 12-01-2002 02:11 PM

hopefully, Jackie Chan adventures got old after a while and looking at some of the character designs like Shredder and Splinter and of course hearing the new theme song, I'm not so sure :dead:

Karpo_007 12-01-2002 02:16 PM

It going to follow the original plot line so it can't become boring. Of course after they start writing completely new plots it could, but i doubt it. And I like the Splinter design and I can live with Shredder if he can just fight fast. All in all i think it will be good.

Of course there is a down side. Playmates is funding the show again, and thus we will get the vehicles. But if they don't come up with new ones in every other episode I belive it won't be a problem.

Mondo_Gecko 12-01-2002 02:24 PM

Ah good Nturtle some agrees with me on the theme song and the designs for Splinter and Shredder

Deathknight 12-01-2002 03:50 PM

I dunno about the new show... Shredder being a successful business man? wtf is that about? I think the theme song is terrible and painful to listen to... if I encode the new show, don't except any eps with the theme.

Mondo_Gecko 12-01-2002 03:52 PM

Exactly i hate Shredder being a business man, and that song. Bring on the old show anyday.
