Continuation or Remake?
 
Just wondering since there is alot of room for interpertation on Nickelodean's desire to "fucus on the 80's toon" version of the turtles, theres been alot of speculation going on here. Could they mean they want to revive the old series with a continuation of that universe where it left off in season 10? Or Do you think they want to just take the same idea of the 80's cartoon and do a remake of of that universe with different scenarios and orgins for the same characters that have already been introduced in the orginal series?

Well I wondering what every one would prefere if the Nick decided to do one of these two things? Since they are going to concentrate on the 80's turtles, would you like that it was a contiuation of the old toon or a remake of the 80's toon?

hopefully they'll make something new

Doc_ock_4mugen 10-29-2009 10:46 AM

remake and hopefully get Cam Clarke and Rob Paulsen as part of their voice cast. (They don't HAVE to reprise their previous TMNT Roles, if they did that would be sweet!)

Its more likely that it'll be an adult show based exclusively on the Mirage universe that will only air on Nicks new adult block at night than this being a continuation of the 80s show.

Don't you go getting my hopes up!
I'm over here trying to convince myself that it's going to be a toddler show a la The Teletubbies, that way no matter what really happens, I won't be disappointed.

I... really don't know what to choose! *explodes*

Andrew NDB 10-29-2009 12:11 PM

Complete indifference (you might as well ask, "Do you want me to punch you in the face or kick you in the nuts?"). Either option is creatively bankrupt... but then it's for 6 year olds, not 28 year olds.

Indifference?! Being punched in the face is obviously the best option of the two. Or so I've heard.

Kendamu 10-29-2009 12:22 PM

I dunno. I've never had permenant damage from a kick to the balls. A punch to the face, on the other hand...

Andrew NDB 10-29-2009 12:23 PM

Yeah, your nose could be broken, or you could lose a tooth or detach a retina.

I've never heard of anyone breaking or busting a nut. At least in the context we're talking about.

Nelson 10-29-2009 12:29 PM

All good points. I'm ashamed of my lack of knowlegde of fistfights consecuences.

themaxonline 10-29-2009 12:36 PM

I'd personally like to see a remake of the original cartoon with most of the same characters but to have a greater focus on the history with Japan and the martial arts and stuff as well as more dire situations. I'd also like to have more Technodrome episodes but I'd hope it wouldn't be where the Technodrome is ALWAYS moving or on the run. I'd also like a continuing storyline instead of individual episodes. And of course, it should start from the beginning as well.

I can't believe I actually have a link to this, but I SWEAR it was just on Fark.

You're such a ball-buster.

I thinking it will be a new continuity that uses many of the characters from the 80's toon, not a continuation.

You really like Venus don't you.. Well I prefer April, OMG your perves like TURTLES ALOT LOL! Well Turtles are influenced by Frankenstain and Nemo, go to "Huge News: Nick aquares Global Rights to TMNT" for details XD!

Scandia 10-29-2009 07:39 PM

I'd prefer a remake with Splinter starting out as a rat. April can work as a reporter- but please put more of Casey. And keep the sarcastic Raphael- he is the most tolerable version of this character.

Tuxedo Moroboshi 10-30-2009 01:03 AM

Personally, I'd like something that's close to what we got with Archie, but with a few elements from other universes mixed in.

I second this. I've always felt the ninja, or ninjitsu aspects were not enough. Would be nice to emphasize more on this to balance out the sci-fi elements. And more drome is good! And a new drome toy to go with.
