I want to address this because I would be one of the many people under this umbrella, but I am not a casual fan.

The making of this movie is the reason why I ended up registering for membership on this forum. I had checked in here occasionally for a long time before that. I've been a fan virtually since the day I was born because my older brother started watching the cartoon from the first episode (I was born in 87). I own all seasons of the OT on DVD, the four movies (5 including turtles forever) and have a large collection of various TMNT memorabilia.

I realize that this isn't all about everyone qualifying themselves as 'fan enough' to weigh in on the news of this movie as it comes out, but there are probably many people like myself who registered here because news is really starting to surface. TMNT is a massive brand, and certainly there are many people who haven't looked at a piece of TMNT anything since their childhood and are now expressing their interest in this movie. But there are also very likely a great deal of fans like myself who never lost interest, but didn't feel the need to come and discuss it on a message forum every day. I've probably watched each of the live action movies 2-3 times a year (maybe once once a year for the 3rd movie..) for as long as I can remember. I would think that the people who feel interested enough to come register and post on a TMNT message forum can at least match my level of interest.



There are a great deal of you 'senior' members here who are worse than religious people when it comes to TMNT. It is sad. (Powder, you are excluded from this in my opinion)
