If we are going to bash things.....let's bash potatoes. Then we can have mashed potatoes to eat

*VaughnMichael* · 11-13-2003, 12:53 PM

I wasnt agreeing with karpo
in fact I supose I was agreeing with you...
I love the next mutation which I get bashed for all the time and frankly i think you shouldnt allow that either...
I get bashed for loving the red sky episides of the old toon more then anything but no one ever stops that....
people bash the new toon all the time to.....
I'm just saying allot of people here are bashers and it's not cool...
frankly I loved the episodes with lord dregg and mung and when they went to find shredder and krang and lord dregg had krang as part of him ....
it's a shame no one else cares for these episodes that could be compaired to 2003's new sow in my opinion
sorry if I have upset you and I now hope you understand what I am saying but yes I do understand you....and frankly I love the old show more so no worries...

Actually, I have many times said I like the red sky second best after the first season.

*VaughnMichael* · 11-13-2003, 01:46 PM

awsome I'm glad I'm not the only one I totatlly agree the first season of tmnt and the red sky are the best I also liked night of the rogues but not many people liked that one....
I didn't mean you were bashing that stuff though..i'm trying to explain as clearly as I can so as not to make everyone all ticked off lol

Just thought I'd add my thoughts.

I too agree that the first season and the red sky seasons (particularly the first one) were among the old cartoon's best work.

I also did not perceive any "bashing" taking place in the thread beforehand that was closed to Krang. But, hey, that's just me.

*Dane E5R* · 11-13-2003, 03:18 PM

I still don't quite agree.. As I said before, I've got nothing against Krang, he's a great administrator, but that doesn't mean he can't make mistakes. I haven't seen anyone bash the old cartoon in a long time, and I didn't see anyone bashing it in that last thread. No one is "turning on Krang," they just don't agree with him on this particular case.

Ummm.... dude?? I was agreeing with you.

*Dane E5R* · 11-13-2003, 03:56 PM

Yea, I know bud. That wasn't directed toward you, I was saying I still didn't agree with Krang.

Its ironic cause this forum is the only place where people complain about the old show... I've never met anyone in real life that didnt like it.

raphael90 · 11-14-2003, 05:28 PM

Personally, I love the old show and still like to watch it. I might gripe about some episodes and stuff here and there, but overall its a fun series. I never did see the anime, next mutation, or the new stuff yet...

~~Tokka-B~~ · 11-14-2003, 06:16 PM

Yea, the old show was pure quality. Of course the constant whining of April really degraded the show from an older person's standpoint, as well as that stupid "5th turtle"...but everything else worked.

Unlike many people think, I don't completely hate the old show. I still enjoy some episodes, but most seem just boring to me. It's sad how you overgrow the things you liked as a kid...

*jeff the cheff* · 11-14-2003, 06:34 PM

Did you watch the show as a kid?

Yes, I know that, Tokka. I was just trying to prove a point. And, hopefully, people got it.

It was my favorite cartoon show as a kid.

I have to agree with Karpo, and Krang o this one. Yes Karpo wasn't bashing the old cartoon, but the way I see it is Krang locked the thread so no bashing would occur. Krang, you are greatly appreciated by me, atleast. I visit a lot of forums, and this one is deffinately the best, and you are the best Admin, I've ever seen at one. Keep up the awesome wrk, dude!

~~Leo656~~ · 11-14-2003, 09:32 PM

I will say thought that I have to agree with Jeff... aside from this forum, I have never met anyone who liked the new TMNT over the old. Most people only know of the old 'toon TMNT, and that to them is the "real" version, and they accept nothing else. Some people actually refuse to acknowlege Mirage because the darker tone "ruins their image of the characters" that they've had since childhood.

Kinda sad in a way. Me, I accept all versions of TMNT as valid, I just have my preferences is all, and I prefer the new show over the old.

I'd never even read the comic until this year when someone got me one of the comics put into book form...yeah, it is very different to someone who'd watched the cartoon and movies all his life. It was very interesting to see the Turtles in their early incarnations (same color masks, more violence, language, etc.). The darker tone and violence doesn't really bother me I guess but perhaps I am stuck in a time warp and can't see the Turtles this way...although I understand this was their beginning. I can't say I'm a big fan of the comic but it was interesting for a Turtle fan like me anyway. I guess I'll always be partial to the old toon but I'm sure I'll like the new toon when I get around to seeing it.
