CRT/tanaka...Riiight.
 
So, the official site has a update on the main page that brings you to this:
http://www.ninjaturtles.com/html/crt.html
which has information on the 25th anniversary Shell-ebration.

Watching the promotional video, I am scared....very scared. I hate to sound like a naysayer, but come on. A few of my buddies and I could have probably have made an equally good promo.

Am I alone in my fears?

CyberCubed 10-29-2008 04:21 PM

The clips on the site never work, can someone youtube it?

Jester 10-29-2008 04:22 PM

It's a quick time video, and not on 4kids.

CyberCubed 10-29-2008 04:29 PM

Ok it worked, and when the girl with Leo's bandana turned around and smiled at the camera it scared the **** out of me. What the hell...

Creepy. The whole thing was hilariously bad, any average person could have made something like this and actually done it better.

Now I understand why people are worried about the 25th anniversary.

VaughnMichael 10-29-2008 04:36 PM

o Jester your not, that was f3cking retarded and emberassing to watch.
When Raphael says get a grip in the old toon theme song, I thought to myself yeah some one *cough* Gary*cough*Peter* needs to get a grip with friggin reality.:roll:
Oh not to mention that plug of those wonderful toys used in the video that Playmates will be re-releasing for like the 30th time now.

Ninjinister 10-29-2008 04:41 PM

I didn't see the video yet, but exactly what service are these ass monkeys providing? It looks to me as if they're just hired on to expand the Anniversary website... why did we need to know about that, exactly?

Jester 10-29-2008 04:45 PM

*shrugs* But someone needs to expand the 25th anniversary page, it's ONE PAGE! Seriously, all it has is the count down and the contest.

to p1ss the fans off more at what blind out of touch idiots these people behind the turtles are?

“Our decision to bring CRT/tanaka’ on board for the Shell-ebration was motivated by their expertise and clear knowledge of and enthusiasm for the Turtles,” said Gary Richardson, CEO, Mirage Studios. “CRT/tanaka made a powerful impression with their comic-book inspired proposal and Turtles-inspired video (see below). They brought a great vision, a strong team and a love for all things Turtles to the table.”
Seriously if there wasn't ever more of a reason to kick Gary to the curb before.
Quote:

“Taking the Turtles on the road in 2009 is a key element of our campaign and something our fans have been clamoring for,” added Richardson.
Seriously, wtf no just no not a single one of us has asked for that, what we want is better quality products! I don't know what fans this guy is listening to but I could give less about some turtlevan driving around the country. I seriously want to punch this man right in the crotch!
Quote:

“To execute the mobile tour in true Turtles fashion, we knew we needed a partner that would bring energy, creativity, and a spirit that embodied TMNT, and we found that partner in a Cow. From a buzz building, fan engagement perspective, Kicking Cow has a proven track record of successful tour execution. We look forward to their next big ‘road show,” this one starring the Turtles.”
Oh, and the fanboard idea wouldn't have done this, you know I'm seriously starting to get p1ssed off just like Rose and I've had enough of the Middle finger being tossed in the faces of the fans who want to help make this thing right.
Why is it the people at the top are always the ones the screw sh1t up and never understand their own product, it really makes me angry.

Ok, I've gotta:

I really don't understand what's even keeping you (or anyone else, really) from crossing the line and "joining" me.

Rob at Peppercom emailed the press release to me this morning and I had to use every ounce of willpower to not send a rude email in reply.

Raphael_ 10-29-2008 06:58 PM

This is a bunch of people acting like idiots.

This embarasses me as a fan of this franchise.

Because your dark powers are intimidating.

Is the BBB even considered a client?

I have yet to see this video, but it all just confirms from the reviews that Peter may still have the creative talent to bring about good animated properties.... But as far as business goes, he and gary need to not only get with the times, but also hire someone who actually gives a shoot...

Turtles has to be one of the top ten worst mis managed properties in history...

Lil G 10-29-2008 07:26 PM

yo the page is up! go to http://tmnt25.crtti.com/ and then u see the page! look at those donatello nike sneakers!

Buslady 10-29-2008 07:31 PM

I'm downloading QT right now to see this but do I want to see this mess?

I'm becoming pretty tired of alla this crap they're putting out, it's not what the fans are clamoring for.

Road trip? no. get real.

I may drop out of the fandom but I will never ever ever stop being a Raph fan. I don't have to like the crap they put out but nothing's to stop me from being the fan.

I'm starting to agree with Rose. This is ridiculous.

Raphael_ 10-29-2008 08:03 PM

lol @ publishing unfinished pages. This is so amateurish.
