Third Movie comment.

~~Jarrah White~~ · 11-24-2003, 02:16 PM

I've just seen the third TMNT film but once again I have a comment to make; What's with those spots on the turtles' skin?

**Kali** · 11-24-2003, 02:28 PM

The Turtle costumes in the movies have always had spots. But in the first movie they were very subtle. In the second, you could see them easier, but I think that was more do to the bright lighting the movie had, opposed to the dimmer light of the first movie.

The spots in TMNT 3 were bad, I'll agree to that.

apparently there was something wrong with my keyboard. my touchpad sucks. anyway i believe kali is right

*The Defibrillator* · 11-24-2003, 03:31 PM

Whatever happened to that JoshBYawn kid? Had a chart that compared them, right?

*Bowser_Koopa* · 11-24-2003, 04:16 PM

i saw a picture of 3rd movie don with spots, and it was gross, no really, i was almost shaking

*Taloniss* · 11-24-2003, 05:24 PM

Maybe they were liver spots

they are Teenagers.. what can you expect

raphael90 · 11-24-2003, 06:28 PM

Yes, the costumes in the third movie were awful IMO, as well as Splinter's....he didn't even look real. The ones in the first movie were much more realistic IMO.

~~Jarrah White~~ · 11-24-2003, 07:29 PM

Yeah I thought so too. The first film had excellent costumes, but I was impressed and blown away by the facail expressions and movements seen in the second one.

*Deathknight* · 11-24-2003, 09:01 PM

I liked the costumes in all the movies but it really suprised me that Splinter was just a hand puppet in the 1st and 2nd movie.

*Buslady* · 11-24-2003, 09:36 PM

First off, whoever did the 3rd flick redesigned the guys. They look too cartoony. And like the first replier said, they always had 'em. They were very subtle in the 1st movie, made 'em look more realistic.

jasonorme666 · 11-24-2003, 09:51 PM

they also looked anerexic in the 3rd movie

*Cascadia* · 11-24-2003, 10:39 PM

they are just spots....they are definitely more recognizable in the third movie than the other two

not just a hand puppet, but yes a puppet....and do you know who was the puppetir??? The same guy who does Elmo. He did the voice of splinter also.... he's like a six foot 5 tall black guy....named Kevin Clash I believe.
I say this because i think he's versitial...and talented....to go from splinter to elmo. eek!

yeah and Splinter was more REAL with Kevin Clash and his crew working him.
I hope they don't fail the fans when they continue on the Hallmark special

Savanti Romero · 11-26-2003, 02:58 PM

I really don't think the spots looked that bad, it's just that no one was used to them.

**azure turtle** · 11-26-2003, 05:02 PM

Eh... The turtles looked like frogs in the third movie, and the spots didn't help much.

Jamezer · 11-26-2003, 11:15 PM

Im not sure about this fact, so dont hold me to it, but i think that in the first 2 movies, jim henson did the turtles costumes. I think that he may have allready been dead by the time they made the 3rd movie though.

It might have something to do with the lighting too.

MikesPizzaShack · 11-27-2003, 12:36 AM

well i know henson did costumes for the first movie but im not sure about the 2nd and im pretty sure bt the 3rd movie he was already dead...most movies that have puppets and costumes like TMNT hensons workshops around the world make them...its what their known for...

**Kali** · 11-27-2003, 01:09 AM

Henson's company did the costumes for TMNT 1 and 2, and he died during (before?) production of TMNT 2. I'm pretty sure there's a dedication to him the movie's credits.
