So if the Fred Wolf TMNT co-exist with the Nick universe...

*Jephael* · 10-02-2014, 05:28 PM

I was just thinking, at some point do you suppose we might see the classic toon's version of Dimension X?

*TurtleTitan97* · 10-02-2014, 05:46 PM

Anything's possible I suppose. It would be pretty cool that, in the near future, we got an episode featuring the OT Turtles teaming up with their Nick counterparts.

*Metalwolf* · 10-02-2014, 11:42 PM

I don't want it to. This show should not need to keep using the OT over and over. I get it that the OT was some folks favorite and seeing straight cameos of the OT gives off a nostalgic twinge, but enough is enough. This is not the OT.

If people want the OT that bad, then they ought to pop in a tape and get their nostalgia feels that way. Otherwise it starts to feel like a bunch of people who can't accept anything Turtles unless it copy-pastes the OT, because that's the only way it's 'acceptable.'

I don't want anything more of the OT, at least not straight cameos. Give us Mirage elements, where the real Turtles started.

Yeah. I want to see Donnie fixing stuff up around the farm, Raph and Leo fight and Leo ends up getting thrown through a wall. Mikey starts his journey as an author. Raph wearing the Shredder outfit for a spell and ruling the foot. The Triceratons coming in. And I'd love it if they could get some things from the 2k3 show. Maybe one of the voice actors can have a cameo? Battle Nexus has a few episode arcs. Bishop and Hun show up. And, one of my favorite things to come out of the TMNT world, the 2007 movie's The Nightwatcher.

I agree no more OT turtle stuff I prefer the nick show to be its own thing

I am really not looking forward to the frogs. I thought they were stupid in the OT, and they lost my interest real quick back then, and now when I'm seeing pics of them in the new show, they still aren't interesting to me. Not to mention, I really do not like Jon Heder.

*BubblyShell22* · 10-03-2014, 07:39 AM

Yeah, not looking forward to Napoleon Bonafrog either as I'm not a fan of Jon Heder and really don't want to hear Napoleon Dynamite coming out of a frog's mouth. And we already saw Dimension X, and I like what Nick has done with it. It's still very intriguing. We don't need the OT Dimension X. I think instead of just using OT elements, I want to see more comic elements and things like that. Heck, I'm just stoked we're getting April's narration from the comics and the bathtub scene in tonight's episode.

*LeotheLateBloomer* · 10-03-2014, 07:46 AM

All of these I agree with. I initially thought that this show was trying too hard to be like the original cartoon during it's first season. But starting with season two and so on, I realize that this show really is its own thing. The more I see OT influences though, the more I groan. I realize what it's done for the turtles but that was the 80s and 90s, this is 2014. When this show tries to do it's own thing, it is very unique. I'm not afraid to admit this but I actually enjoy watching this show more than the 87 cartoon. I can easily get in to this more at anytime than I can with that show.

I'm looking forward to it, and I guess it's because of the humor potential...and I love the Napoleon Dynamite film. ^^'

That aside I personally have no problem with them using some old characters and putting their own spin on them. It's interesting. Maybe the Punk Frogs will be interesting this time around, as opposed to being country bumpkins.

*IndigoErth* · 10-03-2014, 01:56 PM

As long as they are looking over all the old sources to pull inspiration from, not just a single old series, doesn't bother me where it comes from if they are simply using it as a starting place or putting their own twist on it and making it their own. After all, while people wanting more of the original series can go watch it...well no one is forced to watch the new one either and have other older options to choose from.

Although I strongly have to agree with the frogs. I hope their appearance is rather limited. Yeah, maybe they'll be cool this time, but I dunno...

JonesyKitty · 10-03-2014, 04:42 PM

Cam clarke accidentally (or maybe purposely) stated at Rose City Comic Con that they will be appearing again. Before he could really say much more Rob Paulsen kinda interupted and told him he wasn't supposed to say anything. I would assume maybe this is what they had mentioned before about Rob's characters interacting, but I'd love to see some longer cameos if anything. I think it'd be cool to see the 80s characters in cgi personally

Oh yes, most definitely. And it would cool to see the Nick Turtles in 2D if they went to the OT universe.

*BubblyShell22* · 10-03-2014, 05:10 PM

Wow. Sounds like awesome news if the OT Turtles are coming back. But I agree that while I like for other characters to appear with their own spin, I just don't want it to be OT exclusive and have other elements thrown in from other incarnations, which I'm sure they'll do.

I wouldn't mind a small arc of dimension hopping if they decide to do it, mix it up with some Mirage and various other incarnations. I think it'd be fun to see different team ups, maybe a different turtle from each highlight era as a team to save their own eras brothers or something. I would just hope it doesn't turn out like shows like the current Power Rangers where its non stop cross over episodes with like 30 Red Rangers in the opening and all one after another. A few in a row would be cool though

*snake* · 10-03-2014, 07:51 PM

Probably not. The OT turtles were a cameo only.
