I stay away from all these debates that's been going on what qualifies as a quality product.

Pretty much, Yeah. lol

[Leo656]

Well, consider the point of view of MOST fans who've followed the property a long time. Metaphorically speaking, once you've had steak, it's hard to settle for eating dog food in a can. They may technically come from the same source, but only in the loosest sense of the word.

"Settle For Less" shouldn't be the rule.

C'mon, we've already been settling for less with everything post-TMNT 1990. That was the steak, everything else is just cheeseburgers. TMNT 2014 is a cheeseburger. The Nick show is a bacon cheeseburger (sometimes with fries). We're never gonna get a movie/steak better than the 1990 one, so we'll just have to cope with the cheeseburgers this franchise serves us.
I'm hungry.

I'unno, they've come close a couple'a times. Granted, they've fallen short, but this time they didn't even come close. Felt like they didn't try very hard.

I don't think you know what a cheeseburger is pretty-man. the movie this year was not cheeseburger, or maybe you eat badly, who can tell.

[Leo656]

I enjoyed the burger analogy. I thought it was an apt follow-up to my steak metaphor.

Although I'd argue that occasionally, we've gotten Angus burgers, which are technically both burger and steak. While the new movie was some kind of mystery meat using the parts of the horse you're supposed to throw out.

On the plus side, more horse testicles means more iron.

[IndigoErth]

So that's how the steroids got in there. Free range beef next time.

[Leo656]

So, basically... it's a matter of degree, yes?

[Bloodsucker]

this is the cheeseburger you mean?


or maybe this

[TrickOrTreater]

I've had some amazing cheeseburgers. I've seen some great TMNT media.

This movie was neither.

And to see "fans" just bend over and take what they're given because "at least it's something" is...sad? Hilarious? Sadlarious?

Yeah. Sadlarious.

Dude, you're the only one here who isn't funny. Everyone's funny & then your bitter & overly sarcastic posts always kill it. I'm not trying to be a prick, just had to get that off my chest.

I can't figure out why you said cheeseburgers.
Seriously, I've had some impressive cheeseburgers and I've had some shite cheeseburgers, but they all have cheese. Cheese, is great, no matter how you cut it.

If you'd compared to say, Taco Bell, or McDonald's, I'd be right with you.
2007 was meh, 2014 was blargh. Both sounds I make 15 minutes post meal, at either place.

But no matter what you do, do yourself a favour, go find a gourmet cheeseburger. It can change your life.

actually now I think of it, the film seems like something McDonald's would pimp. I'm suprised we never got TMNT Happy Meals at some point.

That's kinda prickish, honestly. Dude's pretty funny. At least he doesn't have a selfie attached to every post, making them somewhat hard to read objectively.

We have, like 5 times.

That's all I've been saying. It's not great, it's McDonald's.
