Turtle Tuesdays by James Rolfe (AVGN)

[hudemx]

What I really loved about this new Video was Ivey and how passionated she is when she's interviewed about the TMNT, no matter who interviews her - she's just brilliant

[Jephael]

Ivey has a lot of respect for people in the entertainment industry. She wouldn't sell any of them out in a million years!

BTW, I could've gone to that event but my dad had surgery a couple days before and I was broke.

Yeah Ivey is a really deep into TMNT, and it's great to see that after so many years she still got the spirit for conventions etc

Bummer dude, hope your dad is doing ok.

This was a really cool video. I liked the interviews with the various people, and it was cool to see Ivey make an appearance. And the pics of the fan made Turtle Van doesn't do it justice, it was nice to see video of that beautiful piece of machinery.

Thanks, Fugitoid Jones. My dad's doing fine now!

James posted someone else video this Turtle Tuesday....

It's a great video that I've watched many many times, but what a copout...

[Jester]

It's not like he hasn't said that Turtle Tuesday is for the most part done...though I'm sure that fans (both of James himself and the Turtles) could point to things we wish he'd talk about. I know I'd love for him to do more with TMNT: TF than just play it with Mike. Heck, how many TMNT games are there that he could review?

[SparkyMarky644]

Shredder is great, I love James Avery . But James Rolfe (AVGN) should do a new video, maybe review the 2003 series or something.

Looks like at least one more entry for Turtle Tuesdays. aw, the randomness of the early 90s'...

I've never seen this video before! I always loved the costumes in the MGM stage show. The shells looked like they were made out of $5 plastic, but the overall look is pretty great! I actually prefer them over the creepy, semi-realistic costumes of the Coming Out of Their Shells Tour.

When he touches on monster movies, it really gives a good summary of those references since I had never seen any of those movies when I first saw tmnt.

It seemed like he thought he caught an audio goof so he decided to devote a segment to it. The problem, however, is that none of the audio "profanity" he explains seems legitimate. The only one he mentions that might even be close is "pu$$Y" and even that is a stretch. It sounded more like puss.

Fun video.

Yeah the so-called profanity he heard was a bit over the top. I think he just sort of "thought of it" and then used it in his vid to sound funny. There were other innuendos throughout the show that he didn't cover. Too bad.

I do like in the latter part of the vid where he compares the ep titles to movie titles. And where he talked about quotes and references to movies that were in the cartoon. I noticed all of this on my own too.

In the early part of the vid he nails it about the whole breaking the 4th wall thing. My god, did that get annoying after a while! I dunno why there was so much of that in the series. Kind of takes away any seriousness the show ever had. And he's right that some of the jokes are so lame they weren't funny, but rather cheesy.

This was funny! I wonder how drunk they had to be to actually try some of this! I thought about doing something like this once, I know other TMNT fans have before. The only one that looked tolerable and actually sort of good to me was the marshmallow and pepperoni. They approved, so sometime I should try it.

Yeah it is pretty bad. Tho it's probably just a home-made, amateur costume.

Cool vid tho. What's funny tho, I was the same age (10) in 1990 when the movie came out. During that same year I remember my class used to watch it during our "free time", which was on Fri's.

Quadruple postin' a drome record!

[Lisardo]

It's because I'm just now reading thru this thread about Turtle Tuesday and watching the links. Sorry about that.

^^ Not trying to get on your case, Lisardo, but just for future reference, you can try using the multi-quote tab on the bottom right of the posts. Then you can put all your quotes into one post!




Seeing the MGM Turtles during my family vacation in Florida way back in 1992 was definetly the highlight of the whole trip. I have seen youtube videos of the stage show, but hadn't seen this new video. Very cool!

I know it's "over" but these latest Turtle Tuesday videos are rather lazy...

Spoiler:

I'm disappointed he didn't do a little internet research and give some love to the manga translation project!
