Halloween 3 has to probably be my second favorite in the halloween series (with 1 and 5)

What? This episode aired? I thought it wouldn't air until next week.

Three things.

1) The feels like the start of a story arc. The search for Mrs. O'Neil.

2) Renae Jacobs is a nice choice for who should voice April's mother.

3) We're going to see the Punk Frogs next episode.

Back in 1993 and still today, kids who watched Power Rangers saw a monster devour heroes and their heads appeared on its stomach.

So maybe if they saw that, then they could have handled tonight's episode.

I just had thought. If April's mother is still out and Mae Whitman's mom use to played Mona Lisa in the OT then do you think they will use her to play April's real mother and get to be Mona Lisa in this version too?

I find it funny the Punk Frogs are mutated in this show almost the same way they were in the OT.

Kids love being scared

you just can't scar them

I hope not. When I hear Mona Lisa, she's pretty much exclusive to Raphael, nobody else. This is a tradition I hope Nick sticks with.

This. If they didn't love being scared, and get that thrill from overcoming their fear, then what's the point of growing up?

No, not even close. Halloween Resurrection has it beat by a long shot. But I digress, This was still much more enjoyable, if slightly predictable episode. 8/10.

Mike Myers isn't even in it. At least he's in those ones.

other than that, love the direction they are going w/ the show

The only reason I can figure for that is that they don't want Leo to feel like a liability that needs to be sheltered and protected while he's recovering (though he's already proven he can handle himself with the Creep). For someone whose suppose to be the oldest and the leader, that would not help Leo's self esteem at all.

Of course I could be wrong and they were just being little chicken sh*ts.

AAAAH!!! NO NO NO!!! EVIL!!! EVIL NIGHTMARE FODDER!!!! I saw that clip when I was ten and man, did it mess me up!!! Ironically, it was when I was staying the night at my grandmothers....

You too? Yeah, I never like going in the basement either. But that's where we keep the litter box and it is MY cat, so it's my responsibility and....

Ok, 'bout the episode. Man, these are getting weirder and weirder. I really hope the writers are focusing on the plot as well as the visuals for this show. I mean that...thing was pretty messed up, but pretty clever in design. So, the Thing remembered April's mother getting captured and apparently they had been experimenting on her family's bloodline since her great grandfather?

Well, if they knew that the Kraang ship landed on that property...WHY DO THEY HAVE A HOUSE OUT THERE??!?!? I mean, April's mother had to have known that the Kraang activity should still be there, so why would they keep going back to a dangerous place like that? Maybe I missed something...

Once again, poor Mikey is said to be stupid and nobody believes him until it's too late. Although Pizza Face is still debatable. And how exactly DID he sense something was wrong with April's mother. I didn't notice any warning signs going off when Irma showed up or when Kirby was brain controlled. Still, I'm glad he was picked off early so we got it down to Raphael.

As for April's powers, that's still pretty confusing. It only seems to happen around Kraang when her adrenaline reaches a certain point. I don't think it's a sonic scream, like someone said, but more of a psychic blast. Her screaming is just from how much it hurts her.

I certainly hope that April's mother comes back or is somewhere. If her DNA is special since her grandfather's days, then she'd have been too important to just dispose of. But that would mean that the Kraang could've taken over the planet years ago as opposed to when April was born.

I really want to believe in this show guys. I really really want this to be as good as it was in the first season, but I'm starting to think we may have jumped the shark awhile back.

Still, I'll keep watching it, even if it is for episodic purposes.

*IndigoErth* · 10-17-2014, 07:31 PM

Felt kinda a tiny bit bad for the Turtles though along with April. Asking where "mom" is, rather than saying "Mrs. O'Neil"... words they'd never really had a chance to speak before. Too bad she wasn't legit and couldn't have gotten to know them as family, too.

Their version of the originals (except for the main cast) have always been very different so far. I wouldn't past them on doing something like that.

In H20 and Resurrection it might as well be Ghost Face wearing a bad michael myers mask, they couldn't capture what made Michael, Michael

Not really. Karai was initially connected with Shredder, and has her main bond with Leo. Irma was still best friends with April like in the OT (and that is still up in the air, the real Irma could still be out there, and the producers are just pulling our legs) Hun is still going to have his rival with Casey. Leatherhead is still buddies with Mikey the most. Casey was still introduced to the gang via Raphael.

It's actually funny you bring that up.

Because when you stop and think about it.

The Turtle's mom is right next to them.

Yeah that was cute and...weird at the same time.
And now it just feels so sad.
