Official Ep Discussion #11 "Mousers Attack!" - Page 5

*Storm Eagle* · 12-09-2012, 07:38 AM

I can't believe I forgot all about Chris Bradford and Xever's mutations. It's kind of messed up how pretty much everyone ends up mutated though. I can only guess what will happen with Baxter Stockman.

We'll see the ratings on Tuesday (Hoping 3 million atleast) but My question for now is:

Did anyone watch the premiere of 'Mousers Attack' at 10/11 on Saturday?

I watched it at normal 11 airing time

I think the Alien Agenda episode will be a Kraang theme one.

I get all the eps on iTunes so I don't watch it when it airs. In fact I have not watched a single episode on Nick's cable station.

I would not read much into the ratings. Look at how they give away every single ep for free on nick.com! They are aware that getting people to watch the show when it first airs is a losing battle.

They are more interested in revenue from toys and other merchandise than the show. The show is just a vehicle to get people to buy that stuff.

How exactly would Spongebob and Ninja Turtles be in competiton given that they air on the same network?

I wish everyone would quit the laser focus on ratings and reviews. Everyone knows that people download,DVR, etc nowadays. Ratings are virtually meaningless. Merch sales are what will make or break this show. They seem to be having no problem in that department.

I agree...my boys are all about the new TMNT toys for xmas and they are so hard to find...even the Shell Raiser isnt going for cheap anywhere...:/

*Raph's Girl* · 12-09-2012, 05:56 PM

Finally got the chance to see the ep.

It was ok. Poor Mikey and Donnie being reduced to red shirt status.

Wonder where they got the Space Heroes pin-ball game??

....IRMA! IRMA! IRMA!!.... *looks about* IRMA!

Wouldn't it be funny if Burn Thompson was the principal of April's high school?

Next week: Leatherhead!

*CyberCubed* · 12-09-2012, 07:53 PM

I still can't believe this episode isn't online anywhere outside of itunes. Either Nick is cracking down on the illegal uploaders or all those people didn't know there was a new episode this week because of the rerun the week before.

high3 · 12-09-2012, 08:59 PM

Yeah, I totally missed it, my dvr didn't catch it... And so far there's no way for me to get it to watch. BUMMER!

Gokhan · 12-09-2012, 10:01 PM

Mikey break dancing was the best part hands down lol and I hate how they are glorifying Leo and raph. I like this show but that aspect is a turn off.

Also all this who fights better stuff was never a issue in the original mirage stuff. They were all high class ninjutsu users. Sure they each had strengths and weaknesses but ultimately they were a perfect match for one another no matter who spared with who

*CyberCubed* · 12-09-2012, 11:46 PM

I kept thinking Mike and Don would save the day at the end but they really didn't. The episode was kind of a letdown for that reason, which is a shame because most of it was pretty good.

I love how the Mousers one at a time are easily to kill, but when they just keep coming the Turtles have their hands more than full. Nice to see Baxter working for Shredder which was something many of us knew would happen/

Its starting to bother me that the Purple Dragons consist of a grand total of 3 people now. Seriously, are they going to get any new members?

*VaughnMichael* · 12-10-2012, 07:04 AM

I really liked this episode and the Mouser design is great.
Whoever said way back that Baxter would end up with Shredder and make Fishfaces legs gets a gold star.

Really cute that they had an Irma bit real fast, I really love all these nods.
I really do have to wonder though how Baxter got the money to make the Mousers, or at least so many.

He probably robbed a bunch of banks off-screen while he still had the t-pod.

I was thinking perhaps he used some of what he has left from his outfit to build a mouser prototype to rob places and from that he built others.
But who really knows, maybe we will get stuff like this in the new Nick comic.

Darth Knuckles · 12-10-2012, 07:59 AM

I really liked this episode. The Mousers looked really good and I liked their sound effects. The Mousers being an acronym was a nice touch. And Irma calling April.....awesome for us old schoolers. I loved the ring tone of the T-Phone.

Very cool! I also think that Baxter's first job will be to make Xever a pair of legs so he can be of some use to The Foot Clan. I do wonder what else Shredder might have planned for him though.

Red-eyed Jaguar · 12-10-2012, 08:42 AM

I liked this Episode!

The Mousers were great, their Sounds, their Movements..disturbing little Kreachers, I mean Robots.
So many Comic references, not alone their Design,but how Raph throw his Sai into the Mousers Eye or how Leo cut the Head off of it. Sure, minor Things, still like it.
Also that Turtle Poster with the red Bandana, the Purple Dragon throw their Darts on.

I loved the 'walking Dead'-Joke, since I happen to be a Fan of the old Enterprise.

I would like to see more Leo/Raph and Don/Mikey Team Action, but then again I think, it won't be a well balanced Team anymore,so I'm not sure if that's such a good idea.
Dogpound was also great in this Episode.I do enjoy this Character a lot.

FoxZerro · 12-10-2012, 10:38 AM

Just because its been worked into conversation a bunch of times since the episode aired I have to post probably my favorite quote from Mousers Attack

Raph: Its like comparing apples and oranges... if apples were way better... which they are.

Seriously just perfect the phrase the pacing. Great line

*CyberCubed* · 12-10-2012, 11:27 AM

Does anyone else find Baxter's pink shirt to be very bizarre? I mean its so weird.
