Okay, Cipes, so you’d like to see Mikey gain a love interest, but as a fan of the original series, which character that isn’t in the new one as yet, would you like to see come in?

‘One by one they are all showing up. I guess every time that question comes up, [Executive Producer] Ciro [Nieli] says to say Mona Lisa [the female turtle] because it makes people mad! Just to stir things up, I don’t think she will ever show up,’ he laughs.

My favourite bit.

But Mona Lisa isn't the female turtle. Venus is the female turtle...

People don't hate Mona Lisa. People hate Venus! -_-

Other than that, cool interview it didn't really tell us anything that we already didn't know but still cool...

*Powder* · 05-19-2014, 09:08 AM

Some of us hate Mona Lisa.

CowabungaMikey · 05-19-2014, 09:16 AM

I prefer Venus de Milo to Mona Lisa.

LET THE FANWARS BEGIN!

Me too. Plus Mikey doesn't need a love interest. He's perfect the way he is.

Actually when Mona Lisa was first created she was going to be a female Turtle. However Peter Laird put the kibosh on that.

cute interview ^_^ thanx for sharing~

*CyberCubed* · 05-19-2014, 02:09 PM

I think its interesting that Jason Biggs was mentioned in the interview if he's fired.

Mona Lisa fans vs Venus De Milo fans is like two homeless guys fighting over a half eaten packet of chips.

*Shark_Blade* · 05-19-2014, 07:01 PM

Why would anyone hate Mona Lisa?

Venus is obnoxious and treated like "the hottest **** ever and the others are constantly drooling over her", but Mona is actually quite decent.

Plastron double D's. Mona got sh*t on Venus.

No no no. Seriously though. If the show is to be introducing new female characters, mutant or not, Mona or Venus. Don't have them as just girlfriend material, that's just sad.

And honestly, if a female turtle ver resurface to modern TMNT canon, be it Nick show or IDW comic, I really really REALLY hope they don't name her after a work of Renaissance art instead of an Renaissance artist. It just feels like a cheap shot.

what's a good female renassance artist name though? The turtles probably used the 4 more popular/good sounding ones. Notice none of them was named either Vincent or Van Gogh.

*Jephael* · 05-19-2014, 07:23 PM

Man, podcasts have gotten me spoiled. Here I was hoping for an audio interview, but it's just text.

More like Angelico. Van Gogh was way after the Renaissance.

I've heard the reason Eastman and Laird chose Renaissance Artist names to begin with, because they don't think of Japanese names that would fit them.

*drgon78* · 05-19-2014, 08:58 PM

I wouldn't mind Mona Lisa but I can't stand Venus.

how bout we skip the reptiles all together and have Alopex instead!

Creativecreature31 · 05-19-2014, 11:06 PM

^ Or Angel

Or Pimiko

Or Ninjara

Or Renet

Or Kala (The Neutrino)

Or heck I don't really care, I just want more females. Just make them more than just love interests

*Powder* · 05-19-2014, 11:14 PM

I think Renet is a must-have for the Nick series.

*Raph* · 05-20-2014, 12:43 AM

Renet would be cool indeed!

But for Mona Lisa, I'd rather have her then Venus deMilo. Venus disturbs the origin of our heroes, Mona does not!

Boobs should produce milk. Venus' however is just a pair of hollow lumps.. if you rap your knuckles on them it'll sound like a door being knocked.

So Mona it is.
