To those who disliked this movie more than Ninja Turtles 3 - Page 2

I actually liked TMNT 3, the only thing that was terrible with it were the cheap costumes, and the pure slapstick with the jokes and fighting. But the movie did have heart with the Mikey and Raph story lines.

Turtles 3- No villains from the show/ comics. Cliche stock villains. No final battle with the Turtles vs the villain. Horrible jokes. Lame cliche time travel storyline used in tons of movies at the time. Horrible costumes and animatronics. Sesame Street muppet looking Splinter. Killed the Ninja Turtles movie franchise.

Bay's Turtles- Shredder and Karai. Epic final fight with Shredder (whether you hate that Shredder or not). Jokes were a little better. Storyline containing elements from IDW, Mirage, OT, and 2003 Series. Turtles didn't look that great, but much more realistic than 3. Splinter looked better and actually fought. Made half a billion dollars and relaunched the Turtles film franchise.

Bottom line, even if you hated Bay's Turtles, at least it was more faithful to the Turtles legacy than that awful Ninja Turtles 3, which was clearly made for 4 year olds.

You're entitled to your opinions, but that is incorrect. The third film is based on Vol. 1 #17, making it "more faithful to the Turtles legacy" by default.

Leap frog=epic final fight with Shredder.

Yes I agree the leap frog part was silly but the actual fight was pretty good, in my opinion any way. Better than any of the fights in Turtles 3. Also other than it taking place in ancient Japan, I don't know what else in common it has with #17

For me, a little bit but still doesn't change the fact that the third film was still bad.

TMNT 3 is not nearly as ghastly as TMNT 2, unless we're to view TMNT 2 through 10 year old beer goggles. So I'm not sure this thread has much basis in anything resembling reality. At least there was an actual character arc in 3 (shoddy as it was) and the Ninja Turtles actually used their weapons at times.
