Movie costumes

Usagi'sChick · 11-27-2003, 07:40 PM

Ok, so the 1st movie rocked! The costumes are great, it follows the story line pretty good, it was a hit. The 2nd aint too shabby, the costumes are a little different, they were better in the first, but then we hit movie #3. ACK! they are like grass green and shiny/rubbery looking.
Now why couldnt they keep the costumes from #1?

I liked them in the Next Mutation alright too, what erked me though is like mikey for example has that stupid hat-bandana. But they looked so awasome "bulked-out".

Your thoughts?

Bulked out? You mean their abs?

The costumes in the first two films were cool, though the second had better mouth/eye movements. The third film had the worst costumes. Splinter in the Next Mutation looks like someone's wearing a a giant stuffed animal/ And raph's mask looks like someone tore it from a rag.

The costumes for the first two movies were really well done. They had to get a different company to do the costumes for the third movie (those costumes don't last forever, ya know).

In TNM, the costumes for the Turtles were really good for the budget they had, although the costumes for other characters left a bit to be desired. And the animatronics could have been better. But hey, they weren't as bad as the Turtle Tunes/Turtles Christmas/Concert Tour costumes.

I liked the "pumped up" look, too. And the fact that their shells didn't quite cover their backsides.

Usagi'sChick · 11-27-2003, 07:53 PM

Yeah, splinter sucked in the next mutation, and like I said, I didnt like the hat-bandana thing, but I did like them being more built in the next mutation.
Although if I had to choose, i'd say movie 1 all the way!

I'm gonna watch movie 2 to take a look at the eye movement thing. If I remember, movie 1 and 2 their costumes looked pretty similar, perhaps more spotty in the 2nd?

which april do you like best?

*Bowser_Koopa* · 11-27-2003, 08:06 PM

i preffer the first april, she looked more serious, i do think april 2 too is cuter, but the first one is better for the part

raphael90 · 11-27-2003, 08:43 PM

The first movie had great costumes...they were very well done.

The second movie you noticed they'd changed but they still looked cool enough I guess

The third movie their costumes did look rubbery yeah, ick. Splinter was done awfully IMO. The costumes sufficed, but nowhere near as good as the first.

*Buslady* · 11-27-2003, 09:25 PM

I just watch #2 a little bit ago and yeah the animatronics were good, but I still think #1's were better all the way. I think most of the time the movements were smoother and just seemed more real, hell of alot more convincing. I heard that many times they broke down. The over all look of the original turtles is fantastic. I fell in love with Raph when I first saw the movie in '90. It's pretty scary you forget they're not real. (WAHHHH! Oh why can't they be real!!

)

The 3rd flick, oh my god what happened. The Creature Shop didn't do it, obviously. Hell If they weren't gonna I wouldn't have made #3.

Have you seen the rare photo of Mikey from #3 w/out his bandana? oh my goodness! hehe he looked funny. it was from a cut scene.

Splinter, done by Kevin Clash and his crew was right. The 3rd Splinter sucked. Actually all of the animatronics in 3 weren't up to snuff, they seemed too mechanical.

I also liked the original April better than Paige Turco's April.
And I missed Casey in 2. Keno was cool though.

And for TNM..I haven't really seen much except for the clips online, I have a favorite picture tho..that one of Raph lookin all pissed holding what looks like a pipe, ready to smash someone's head in with it? Oh man he's sexy in that...AAAAAAHHHHH! hahahaha

~~Jarrah White~~ · 11-27-2003, 10:38 PM

Anyone see a pattern here? The third movie is always the worst (With the exception of Goldfinger). Terminator 3 couldn't scare a two year old, Jurassic Park 3 had been spoiled by it's ending, I never saw it but I heard Godfather 3 wasn't as good as the first two.

*Buslady* · 11-28-2003, 08:08 AM

It's extremely rare when a trilogy is great. the only ones I can name right off, are Back to the Future, Star Wars(eps 4,5,6), Indiana Jones, and if you can consider it a trilogy, Trek 2,3,4<-those 3 go together.
For TMNT3, they should have done some kinda of City At War sort of thingy. Something based off the comics like #1 was.

Ooh, yes. I have that one printed out and tacked to my wall.

As for trilogies, my favorite is one that no one ever mentions, and it's one that's managed to stay (relatively) good through all three movies (and hopefully, a fourth.) Tremors.

Funny, I coulda sworn the Terminators were supposed to be an action series, but apparently they're supposed to be scary movies now...

Arnold Schwarzenegger isn't scary?

LOTR is a great trilogy too! (I don't care that the third one hasn't come out yet, it's going to be good!)

~~Leo656~~ · 11-28-2003, 05:07 PM

If he were holding a gun to my head he would be

Kiss_My_Shell · 11-28-2003, 06:39 PM

The first movie was well done,very well.The second was also perfect,but the third I agree did suck

Next mutation,I thought was pretty sexy actually

I loved the buffy muscles! Leo was alright,Don could of been better,Mikey was okay, and Raphael...was sexy.I'm sorry I'm a dumb person,but he was lol!

At least in my opinon. The voices were good too.I liked Leo and Raph's the best

~~Jarrah White~~ · 11-28-2003, 07:28 PM

Venus was kinda sexxy I guess, imagine if the show featured April... Cat fight!

Usagi'sChick · 11-28-2003, 09:18 PM

Kiss_My_Shell I have to agree with you! lol!! I'm just a bit shy to go right out and say it!

Ralph has always been my fav, but I took another look at leo in NM

Hahaha, Bond fanatic I see. Yeah Goldfinger was excellent. I loved the first and second movie, but yeah, the third one stunk, though there were some moments that I liked.
