20 years ago today TMNT III came to theaters! Rejoice.

This movie was my first TMNT movie ever. :tgrin:

Thanks TMNT 3 for providing the flaming branch for the franchise to hit on the way down!

Lol, the TMNT franchise was on its decline due to Power Rangers. Even if TMNT III was a masterpiece it wouldn't have made much of a difference.

Power Rangers was after TMNT III.

Oh wow! I didn't realize it was 20 years already. xD That's pretty cool!

May not have been my favorite movie, but I do enjoy it in a sense.

happy birthday teenage mutant ninja turtles III!!!;)
I fondly remember the days and seeing a little documentary on the movie on old german television channel rtl plus(which was broadcasting childrens program)...aaaaaah very sweeet memories...
growing up I felt a little troubled about the different looking costumes but having grown up I appreceate so many more spects of the movie and actually enjoy rewatching it pretty much from time to time...

Now I feel old. I actually remember going to watch it. Although looking at IMDB, we got in August in the UK. I would have just turned eight.

Precisely.

The strongest memory I have of the sequels is just how horrible they became... and how the redesigned costumes that the filmmakers and puppeteers of II & III praised as being more advanced and lifelike were beyond bad! Trying to evolve and improve upon art doesn't always work! :ohwell:

EDIT:
And while I understand most of the changes were made to make the job easier... how could they compare the redesigned costumes to those of the first flick and consider them an improvement. :teek: Lord.

^ What? The Costumes in Movie 2 were much better than the first films.

I don't know, I preferred the faces they used in the first film. I think it was the eyes that I loved best about the costumes. The second ones started to tread in the cartoon territory, which, given the tone of the film, makes sense.

Seriously? Seriously?!

Digital Ghost 03-20-2013 09:28 PM

It was just my personal opinion, no offense meant. The costumes just had a more 'gritty' realistic appearance and the faces had more emotion. I'd agree with Kunoichi's 'cartoon territory' comment.

Actually I'm with ya! I like all four movies :shifty::tcouch:

awesome! not the best by far, but as a kid i did indeed like it. i really didnt realize how bad it was until i rewatched it after over a decade...

tmntpower1988 03-21-2013 09:48 AM

TMNT III works great as a sleep aid. Used to love the movie when I was a kid but now it bores me. The first movie all the way. The 2nd wasn't too bad, not as good as the first but better than the 3rd. I'd say the 3rd movie is my least favorite of the four.

plasticturtle 03-21-2013 10:10 AM

I saw this twice in theatres. Mainly because the first time I saw it certain audience members wouldn't shut the hell up and I couldn't hear parts of the movie. I had the same problem with the fourth one.
