Should the show parody other genre's besides horror?
 
Other than all the horror movie tributes, and the comedy nods, what other genre's should Nick TMNT spoof?

I'd love to see it take on the adventure genre like Indiana Jones. The Turtles usually go on adventures exploring ancient ruins, pyramids, or underground dungeons anyway in other series, so it would be nice.

More sci-fi is expected, with the Triceratons eventually showing up. We still need a proper Turtles in Space arc, with the Turtles on alien planets like D'hoonib and flying spaceships.

Time Travel we're definitely getting with Renet showing up, hopefully the first stop is the prehistoric past with dinosaurs.

etc.

Yes. Adventure is my favorite genre. Like you said, Indiana Jones would be great, and considering the cast, The Goonies could be another good one to be inspired from.

I would really love if they do parody of kung fu films and samurai movies.

Hell a whole season base on Seven Samurai would so awesome!http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/f..._thexcited.gif

I would love to see them do a Western.

They could do it in the style of Back to the Future 3, what with Renet showing up and all.

That is exactly what I was thinking.

Romantic comedy. :tlove:

Or maybe something like Mean Girls.

With a similar train and cowboy hats? Awwww that would be adorable. Oh and awesome too. :)

How about they have their own stories instead of referencing other ones?

Yeah they really should take a break.:embarass:
Maybe the references should be more subtle and in the background like they were in season 1.

They could parody war movies?

jenna 11-17-2014 04:48 AM

I don't think they should parody anything - they should just let the show be its own, unique thing. An homage here and there is fine, great if its nodding back to a previous TMNT incarnation. But why need it be a parody? Since they started parodying other films the show has lost some of its unique flavour.

TigerClaw 11-17-2014 06:32 AM

TMNT is a show that pretty much parodies every Genre.

Ciro mentioned during SDCC 2012 that The Goonies has always been a reference point for the turtles since early on.

Megatron 11-17-2014 11:24 AM

no, enough of this parody BS... they are over doing it and it needs to stop.

Jephael 11-17-2014 11:26 AM

How about a parody of The Breakfast Club at some point?

BubblyShell22 11-17-2014 03:47 PM

Well, I'd love to have Splinter for that one, but that would be cool. Turtles in detention.

Jester 11-17-2014 03:51 PM

Wait...you mean it hasn't parodied any other genre of film?

;)

BubblyShell22 11-17-2014 03:52 PM

It has, but I think people are getting tired of the horror homages and want to see something else. Not me though. I like what we've been getting and I say bring it on!
