i hear that people didnt like new tmnt movie and tv and why?

In my case, the 2k3 series seemed to sneak under the radar (the last turtles series I'd watched in full was TNM), but I also wasn't online in a turtle fandom back then either. I wouldn't even know about the upcoming Nick series if I hadn't been frequenting this board. Anyway, I do remember coming across an ep during its original run in about 2005 or so, but I couldn't fully get into it because it was too serious for me, but I can't judge the series based on that alone. I just never went back to it. I also didn't feel like waking up early just to watch it (I was in my mid 20s at the time). I might watch the 2K3 series one day...even with the whole Shredder fiasco for it.

As for the 2007 film, I didn't mind it too much, but I did have my nitpicks with it, like how I felt the focus was on Leo and Raph way too much and how, to me, Donny and Mikey were gypped for it. I didn't find Casey and April interesting either....well, their roles anyway. To me, movie 1 will always be the best of the turtle films. Seems to have a nice balance, and it didn't seem to overly focus on any of the characters. My main nitpicks with movie 1 was that it was way too short and we never did figure out what Danny's problem was and why he felt this need to join up with the Foot Clan.

Don't get me wrong, they're still done well. As I say, I just didn't find them that thought provoking. Certainly not as much as Batman: The Animated Series for instance.

I like that about the OT series too. I like getting the jokes and stuff that I didn't back then. Same goes for series like maybe Animaniacs. Man, those jokes!
