If the comics sell well enough and they see a viable market for an older crowd anything could happen.

It really all comes down to what will make them money.

I was thinking the exact same thing. How cool would it be to see an animated TMNT movie where they actually killed foot soilders. It be basically the Mirage Turtles in action.

I doubt ANY old stories will be adapted. But they may use characters in familiar situations, like Baxter using robotic suits, etc.

Here's a story I want told and revealed. How do Splinter and the Turtles get money for things?

*Koi* · 04-23-2011, 01:43 PM

That story has been told. They jack crap from the garbage dump.

I thought that was only a plausible theory.

Well not certain which universe we are talking about or if it's just Turtles in general but just about the only thing of interest that came out of the Garbageman episode of 2k3 was it set up a viable way for the guys to get a lot of things. They scavenge from the dump and then the homeless people would look for items they wanted for them and the Turtles would kind of barter by bringing the homeless people blankets and things.

Also in Mirage volume 2 we see April going shopping and asking the guys for their list of items they need. Leading me to believe that April and Casey probably do a lot to support the boys too later in life.

*Koi* · 04-23-2011, 02:08 PM

If you watched the 2k3, they visited the garbage dump quite a few times. They also have talked about the turtles having jobs in the cgi movie.

You guys want the weirdest things in the movies.

Hall of Lost legends and get some Complete Carnage in there too. In terms of Archie give Armaggon a little cameo.

*Cowabunga Carl* · 04-23-2011, 07:03 PM

Hall of Lost Legends, gosh I had forgoten about that one. It is a very good issue and a pitty we have not seen it animated yet. There are so many stories and some that have already been told that would be awesome to see. But as some have said here in this thread, if Nick goes younger with the show I don't know. I'm starting to become torn on whatI want to see from this show.

I was reading an article somewhere about the amount of good food both restaurants and grocery stores throw out on a daily basis. I could see Splinter having a routine down probably having different places he visited everyday so that the boys would actually have a rather varied diet.

I've never been a fan of Sponge Bob or the humor in it. On the fence here...

I was hoping this nick version of the boys would be similar in tone to Avatar the last Air Bender or Wolverine the X-Men or young Justice League, or heck even Star Wars the Clone Wars.

*ssjup81* · 04-30-2011, 02:49 PM

I liked the early Spongebob eps, where Spongebob came across as an adult who's moved out on his own and trying to learn how to live on his own. Holding down a job while going to the boating school to work on his license. After that premise was dropped, it just got strange/stupid. Even Patrick wasn't all that stupid in the beginning. It's like how in later eps of Rugrats, I think the writers seemed to forget that Chuckie was older than Tommy, Phil, and Lil and treated him as a baby too. Chuckie's character should've been more so with Angelica and Suzie's group since he was in between. Funny, even when the series started, he had a full mouth of teeth (like Angelica because he was two). Later eps, they ditched that and gave him a bottle. ><

I'm all about "Shell of the Dragon" and "49th St. Stompers." I would love to see those animated.

Ninja_Shoe_Repair · 05-02-2011, 02:58 AM

Mostly anything from the comics is welcome minus the Justice Force crap and some of the weird guest artist stories as well.

As far at TMNT goes, one of my favorite episodes is "Same As It Never Was". It's kind of a "what if" future scenario but it's awesome. Mike has one arm. Splinter is dead. April and everyone is old. Shredder and Karai kill everyone including the turtles. It's dark and a neat vision to see. Kinda like "Days of Future's Past" in the X-men series. I think it's funny how Raph loses his eye in almost every re-telling of the future. I would like to see an actual cool time travel arc like this or the Archie version and not any of that Fast Forward sillyness.
