Official Episode Discussion: "The Manhattan Project" (aka "Wormquake!")

*Zulithe* · 03-02-2014, 01:51 AM

[Edit by Machias: Since the episode's up everywhere, We'll go ahead and have Zulithe's thread as the official Discussion.

Enjoy! ]

EDIT: Nick.com is now steaming "The Manhattan Project" for FREE, two weeks before its TV premier date. They are marketing this episode as "Wormquake!" but the true title is "The Manhattan Project"

iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/tv-seaso...es/id815769991

Yup the 42 min episode is already on sale. I'm downloading it now! This is the ep that doesn't air on Nick for two weeks!

Two sentence Episode Summary from iTunes:

Spoiler:

Here is what iTunes has to say about his second half of Season Two (plot details) [EDIT: iTunes has now removed this entire summary! Probably because it is too revealing about future episodes. Read at your own risk]:

Spoiler:

You can buy the two-part ep for 4.99 or buy the season pass for 24.99 and you will get access to the entire Second half of Season 2 as they become available

here is a little teaser for everyone. They altered the opening sequence... again! It has the zip line stuff now and also some of the new villains.

*EDIT after watching the episode*

WELL GUYS! I'm kinda in a state of semi shock right now, I just finished watching Of Rats And Men only to find out immediately after that this was out... and was not expecting it for a full two weeks! What a great surprise. I just finished watching Wormquake... but I'm hesitant to post much right now, I'm sure most people won't get to watch it until it airs on Nick... so that is going to be torture for sure. And I don't want to make that wait worse than it is. But there's definitely a lot to talk about.

*shredder orokusaki* · 03-02-2014, 02:27 AM

Then does it mean that people who buy the episode now from itune can also see it today?! While all the others have to wait 2 weeks?

*Zulithe* · 03-02-2014, 02:29 AM

I bought the season pass and i am watching it as I write this.

But it says March 14th on the episode... I can not guarantee what will happen if you buy it and not the season... I don't know enough about how these things work.

You could try?

For all I know this could be a mistake that it was released early.

*shredder orokusaki* · 03-02-2014, 02:30 AM

Can you buy using payasfe card?

*Zulithe* · 03-02-2014, 02:32 AM

based on google, I think no. but you can try amazon or other places that sell TMNT episodes. Sorry, I don't have a full list.

*EDIT* I just checked amazon and vudu, and as of this writing neither are showing Season 4 yet. If anyone knows of more places that sell the episodes or seasons please post it

Also: I'm sure they will work this part out, but it doesn't show as Season 4 inside your iTunes library yet. I've had things like this happen before, they will fix it later.

JH24 · 03-02-2014, 04:27 AM

Wow, thanks for the information, Zulithe. I hope you enjoyed it.

Although I can't buy it in my country it's nice to know people can have early access to the special.

Are you planning to post a summary or your impressions about the special?

LivingMutagen · 03-02-2014, 04:51 AM

So Newtralizer and Slash will team up, a thief will appear and steal Shredder's helmet, there will be a Turtle Mech, the Kraang will attempt to mutate April, Pizza Face and Karai and Dimension X.

*JTH* · 03-02-2014, 05:02 AM

Created an account just for this.

I'll get my 5 bucks out of this episode before it airs, I guarantee that.

*NinjaPug* · 03-02-2014, 06:31 AM

Hmmm. Do I spend the $5 now or wait 12 days?

The last part of the season sounds pretty great. I wonder who the thief is that tries to steal Shredder's helmet.

**Machias Banshee** · 03-02-2014, 06:47 AM

ALL the episodes are available now? That's gonna make the discussion thread setup kinda rough...

I could set up the threads ahead of time, but I don't have the means for setting up accounts to access the shows- they don't even have the episode names on the nick site.

No no, not all the episodes are available now. It's just a pay now plan at a discount, so you can just download and go when they are available.
