I gotta go with the super OG intro, with the "get a grip" line followed by the different colored backgrounds and the turtles gripping their weapons. :tgrin:

CudleyCowlick 04-29-2007 05:36 PM

I love them all but I'm convinced that the second biggest reason for the failure of Next Mutation was the theme song. We all know what the first one was...

cowabunga14 04-29-2007 06:20 PM

I'm going with the original intro because that's what I remember the most.

Courk 04-29-2007 07:17 PM

I didn't even know there were 3 intros. Are they very different from one another? I know the original theme song is my favorite, but now I'm going to have to find the various versions.

If you have Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles first cartoon dvds the the
the first dvd and season 4 you will see the 3 intros

Defentilly the first intro, its classic

Revan 04-29-2007 08:44 PM

Love the first intro. The animation makes the boys look so bad@$$. when mike is deflecting those shruiken... nice. And when the camera pans out and the boys are standing on the roof in shadows... :D love it.

That one will always hold a special place in my heart.

Courk 04-30-2007 12:07 AM

I don't own the DVDs, I'll have to seek out the intros elsewhere.

Go to Youyube and put in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and they will have all 3 intros

Aries10 04-30-2007 01:51 PM

I like both the original intro and the intro used in season four.

Courk 04-30-2007 06:04 PM

I finally found all three intros. The red sky one threw me off -- I thought I was watching a fan-made version with the movie scenes spliced in. That was odd...

Overall, I think my general preference is for the first one, though the second one isn't bad. The third one is a bit too odd, and I don't like the song, but I did like some of the actual scenes.

1st intro:
PROS
Shadowy entrance = sweet.
I like them drawing their weapons as they fly through the air.
Gripping their weapons is cool.
The action is fairly interesting.
The shuriken thing is pretty cool.
Running across the rooftops is also good.
Technodrome appearing - this part of the theme is the most vivid memory of TMNT I have.
It ends well.

CONS
I don't like the floating purple glowing baby turtles.
I don't like the Mikey dancing segment.
I'm not thrilled with the Donnie machine segment
I don't think I like the turtle hang glider thing.

2nd intro:
PROS
The groups scene right after the title is shown is pretty good. Mikey has something that's not a nunchuk, though (is it a grappling hook?). Is that just the version I happened to find, or is that any version?
I like the shot of shredder ordering the foot soldiers to attack.
The training scene is pretty cool.
The Raphael jumping around the building thing is good until he makes that face at the camera.
The scene accompanying the "Michaelangelo is a party dude" is better, though I don't like him getting defeated.
I can't complain about most of the ending.

CONS
Seeing their shadows on the wall at the beginning would be cooler if it lasted longer.
I don't like the scene right after that with them pointing at the sky.
I don't like Donnie and Mikey foiling Shredder.
I don't like this Donnie machine part any better than the 1st version.
Raph's face at the camera.
Mikey getting tackled by a pile of foot ninjas.
I don't like the pizza throwing thing.

3rd intro:
PROS
I like the action here the best, especially Leo vs. Shredder.

CONS
Live action splicing.
New theme.
Whoever designed it did not seem to be a fan of Mikey. It was rather Raph heavy, I thought.

I feel like splicing elements of these together to make my ideal intro.

UUGGHH! Can't stand the grappling hook deal. Yes it's his shell shaped grappling hook. They began to phase out his nunchuck use gradually in their attempt to transition to a hook, thinking we wouldn't notice. :x

Courk 04-30-2007 08:34 PM

Even the US version? *sigh*

I so desperately want it to make sense to single out that particular weapon.

SassyGal 04-30-2007 08:45 PM

I like the 2nd intro the best, though I think the shortened 2nd one is pretty cool too. I forgot they had a shortened one until I got the 4th season boxset. The 1st intro will always rule, but I am not a fan of the 3rd intro. It would be better without the live action stuff in it.

Courk 04-30-2007 09:33 PM

What's in (or, rather, not in) the shorter version?
