Why are TMNT cute?
 

The TMNT have been referred to as "cute" more than once in both toons. So I know it isn't just the fans that think this way about them. While I'm sure the answers are of great number and all pretty obvious, I'm just curious to know: What specific details about the TMNT do you think make them cute? And how would they react if you told them they were cute?

Big heads, big mouths, small green bodies, shells on their backs. And the petty fact that they're always wandering around almost naked.

I'd end up with a sai thrust in my throat.

I never thought they were cute :ohwell:

I think if the fangirl mob army was chasing them screaming that they were cute....the'd be petrified and horrified and all other-ied. :D

The old toon Turtles are cute because they have big eyes and round cheeks. The new toon TMNT aren't "cute" at all in appearance.

...except for when they're Kid TMNT. Then you have the big eyes thing again.

Aren't you forgetting in the opening of "Time Trevails" when Renet refers to the turtles as "cute, little, green bald guys" and at the end of "Legend of the 5 Dragons" when Michaelangelo says, "We're cute, green, and way the shell out of our league."? Obviously, their big eyes as kid turtles wasn't the only thing that made them cute. Besides the new TMNT have round cheeks also, maybe not as round as old TMNT, but round nonetheless.

Renet's a ditz, and Mike was probably being sarcastic.

Well, your opinion's your opinion, but I go by what I observe, and you're welcome to go about it whatever way you choose.

I meant to put a question mark at the end of that last post. Personally I don't see how the TMNT are cute, but I don't see how Tobey Maguire is cute so maybe some people just think X feature=Cute. It's dosen't sound like something you normally think about, seeing as how it's other people's opinions.

Too true *lol*

But for me the kids turtles in the new toon weren't cute...I think that made their voices. They were horrible.

Why are they cute? Cuz they just are darnit!


Seriously tho.. I don't consider Leo and Mike as cute... Don now....he's a cutie patootie.... Raph is a major hottie... :evilgrin:

They are cute for so many reasons;-)They`re green teen mutants ,with smooth skin and beautiful smiles:D

Yeah Tales of Leo they were very very cute when,That one with Donnie and Mikey were very cute thier voices,But too be honest those turtles I find hot and cute is Raph and donnie in the new show :D:D

Already being a reptile fanatic helps. Me. I love reptiles.
Mutating turtles is so perfect, they're cute!
You got green skin, a shell body that shows no muscle but you got these big arms and legs full of it. They got different faces, in a sea of sameness, they're different. Snouts instead of these silly human noses, big mouth...dunno where they got that idea, turtles dont have big mouths...i dunno they're just cute
Raph's personality is strangely attractive, you don't know if he'll bite yer head off or ignore you. The tough guy exterior with the soft sensitive interior is attractive.

anyways

The cutest IMO is, well most of you guys here know....

MOVIE1 Raph!!! HAHAH DUHHHH hehe..ok im shutting up now

they'd at least look acha funny if ya called em cute

"So ya think I'm cute huh?"
"Yup."
"Alright, prove it. Tonight, my room."
"Okay."
"Bring beer an' pizza..."
"Okay."
"I'll bring the entertainment."

tmnt are cute thanks to the CREATORS of TMNT :D

They're cute because of me.;) ;)

The TMNT are cute?

I don't think its so much that they are "cute" in appearance, but rather that some of their mannerisms and nusances are cute.

The classic toon the turtles are drawn cutely and because of that they where cute.

In the new toon because of the fact that the turtles are drawn in a much more threatening way, hightens their softer, cuter, mannerisms. It creates an irrasistable contrast. :D

Leonardo is generally calm and serious and generally so grounded, that I think his reactions when he is flustered or taken aback are quite adorable :) . And he is quite cute when he makes his " note to self" refrences.

Donatello is just a cutie pie in general. He has a cute voice and charming personality. And when he goes into lust mode when he sees a pretty new technolagical toy, its just all around cuteness :) .

Raphael is just such hot head and so gruff that I find any time that he shows his soft side or gets even romotely sappy a kawie fest :P :P

Michaelangelo...if you can get past his overly hyper personality and in your face persona, he is cute. His innocent love of super heroes and wanting to help others is endearing. And when ever he is all scared or freaked out is kinda cute, I even find his girly screams a bit adorable on occasion.

Here here!

Yeah, I think it's their... personalities; their... innocense, too in some ways.

Ugh, I can't explain it as well as Sage Ninja. ;) :)

LOL, Thankyou :D

I still say they're cute because of me. I mean look at me:

8) :P ;) ;)
