Who remembers seeing the first Ninja Turtles movie in theaters?
 

I sure did back in 1990 when i was about 8 years old, i was a big Ninja Turtles buff back then. I was excited about this upcoming movie when i saw a preview to it, when it came out in April i saw it three times in a theater here in Albuquerque and it rocked.

Still is one of my faves!

I must have been 9 when I saw it, I guess. I remember seeing it quite well.

And it's my fave as well. In fact, it's really the only one worth watching (though there is a special spot in my heart for TMNT 2... while I can't enjoy it at all as an adult, I do remember it being THE SH*T back when it came out).

I saw all four on opening weekend. I didn't remember the time-frames, until I saw the ticket stubs in an old scrapbook my mother had kept, when I was moving out last year, and Wiki'd the opening days...

I was 4 at the time and do remember being taken to see it but i definately remember the second two more vividly

The only one I saw in Cinema was the 2nd one. I saw the first one on video, one of my cousins friends "acquired" a copy of the movie from somewhere before it was released in the UK and for the third one, I never got to see it in Cinema, since I was out-voted by family in favor of seeing Jurrasic Park.

I haven't seen the first one in ages, since the only ones I have on DVD are the second two and the 2007 movie.

I think I saw the first movie in theaters, although I don't remember exactly. I do remember seeing the second and third movies in theaters, and of course I saw the new 2007 movie in theaters.

Yeah. My dad was doing the "Cowabunga, Dude!" and everything all day. I was really embarassed on the way out because of it.

Probably for the best ;-)

nope lol, the first time i saw it was on vhs at a friend's house when i was 4 or 5. i dont think we even finished watching it, we went and played with ninja turtles action figures like halfway through i think.

I remember when I was a kid. It was grand!
Though it should have been like the classic TMNT instead of live action.

I saw TMNT II in the theatures... it blew me away as a kid. I mean we only got see the first movie on video, but to see the sequel in the theatures was just super awesome.

My aunt took me when I was 6 in 1990, I remember.

I remember. Too bad they tore down the theater i watched it in and put in a bank.

I was a senior in high school.

I liked Raph in the old toon, but the movie Raph made me the awesome Raph fan that I am today after alllll these years :P

Even then, I remember hating the live action thing. I know it really hurt my love of the franchise and when the 2nd one came out I didn't bother to see it. Kept watching the toon though until 1992-ish when I stopped playing with the toys.

Ahh, yes, I remember it well. I still remember how the first trailer I saw for it blew my mind. :lol:

I also vividly remember how bad I wanted to see it then (I was 8), and my parents couldn't take me to the movies b/c they were having friends over for a coke party or something, so they forced my teenage sister and cousin to take me. You can imagine how two 16 year old girls were just thrilled having to drag some 8 year old to a movie about talking ninja turtles.

And, like anyone who's seen it, you probably know that they ended up loving the movie just as much as I did. Turtle Power indeed! :D

I don't remember the specific experience in detail, but I remember that I went with my mom to go see it at "the expensive theater" when I was six. I remember it also being the best thing ever, but that's about it.

Second and third
 

I just saw the second and the third one in cinema.
