This explains my plan to actually get the DVD or Blu Ray...on the cheap that is. I have Turtle Tunes, Turtle Christmas and at least the movie cut of East Meets West on VHS (my reason for not picking up NM on DVD is it's edited. I'd like it as it originally aired, please.) As Powder said, it's Turtles...and it's video...I have worse pieces of TMNT A/V media in my collection.

I'll only buy a special "no nostrils" edition if they release it. No TMNT DVD will sit on my shelf with nostrils on the Turtles.

I'm starting a petition for an extra-large nostrils edition. Just massive nostrils, from their lips to their eyes. We can do this.

Of course I will. I'm slowly collecting all things TMNT. I'll get it even if I don't like it.

Meh. i'll download it from torrents. Just for the sake of it.
Maybe i'll watch it once, just cause the cam versions are low quality.
It wasn't good enough to be worth spending money on.

For the price it will cost, I could buy a couple packs of smokes and a couple steaks to throw on the barbie.

Will you add it to your collection?

I won't be adding it to my collection. This to me is along the lines of next mutation, it's there but I don't want it. I've never added next mutation to my collection nor do I intend to. With this one I can barely even remember it, it was just too freaking fast. Like next mutation it just isn't Ninja Turtles to me, it felt as if they had just been tacked on to a movie that was so poorly written it could have been anything. It also didn't help making them supporting roles in an April O'neil movie.

There were just far too many 'mindless dumb' things in it (I'm working on my own review I'll post it eventually) that I just can't add it to my collection. It doesn't help that the one thing that I truly remember hating in this movie was Raphael. The design should have been a red flag (Leo despite unnecessary bamboo armour clearly got the better end of the deal), to me this is with no doubt the worst Raphael ever and I remember not liking 2K3 Raph to start.

But at least the 2K3 Raph 'seemed' like a meathead who had other colours in him where Gregory Abbey gave him depth and shades which you could hear in his voice. Unfortunately, Alan Ritchson could not. He was a one dimensional meathead through out the entire movie, even when there was supposed to be emotion Alan's voice didn't carry it like the better Raphael's Gregory Abbey, Nolan North, Sean Astin and the #1 Raph of all time who set the bar Josh Pais. It also didn't help he could throw a freaking shipping crate but not move robo shredder and his freaking sunglasses & toothpick defied gravity. Donatello, Leo (Pete Ploszek), Mikey could be better with solid intelligent writing but nothing could save this Raph.

That being said, I think once it becomes available on a stream I will watch it again to see if I'm being too harsh as I quite honestly can't remember much that I liked but for the life of me I just can't put it amongst my collection. I just can't...

How do you guys feel?
Guess I have no business in this thread then.

Most likely, but probably via a strongly hinted gift idea.

Throw in a cold virus and it would be a winner for sure, esp with special edition snot bubble print packaging and added in Mikey snot jokes.

Nope. I don't like spending money and having things around me that I don't like, especially when there are so many other great TMNT things that I can have around that I actually like.

Maybe to those who LIKE it. There are still a good amount of people here who DON'T and Truly Believe this isn't TMNT and just a cash grab who are able to objectively state their reasons why without being unnecessarily insulting to other members.

I didn't like it. I've stated why. I won't be buying it. Simple. Agree to disagree but no need for the attitude dude.

I like how all the other movies are almost unanimously decided as.... TMNT 1 the best, TMNT II not as good, TMNT III horrible, TMNT 07 mostly bad except for the Raph vs Leo fight.... but this new one has such a strong divide. I remember 2007 had a bit of a divide too back when it was new, but nowadays most everyone agrees it really wasn't all that good save the Leo/Raph fight.

Kinda assume a few years from now most everyone will look back and see how lame this one was and wonder by the big divide.

He didn't have attitude. He was simply stating that if it's a TMNT related thing that he's buying it. He's not calling anyone out at all.

No need for the sensitivity.

I don't think so.

He could have said is water wet? With excitement not an eyeroll. It's the equivalent of saying what a dumb question. Not being sensitive just calling crap.

Anyway, I don't want to start something but have a look at the difference and you tell me.

This is like asking "is water wet"?

This is like asking "is water wet"?

Clearly they convey different things.

Are we really at the point where we are arguing about the semantic use of an emote?

Kill me now.....
