Like getting a turd sandwich and people saying "just be grateful you got something".

It's so annoying.

That's every modern company's greatest compliance-gaining manipulation with the weaker fandoms. I vaguely remember even the guys from NECA pulling the "just be thankful that these toys are being made at all!" once....

What about the videogames? Both Shredder's Revenge and Cowabunga Collection have sold over a million copies.

Shredder’s Revenge & Rise movie came out last year; Mutant Mayhem is coming this year, how can it be over?

Because they were both based on the 1987 version.

TMNT ain't over, Because we have this new TMNT game from Apple Arcade, And if I remember, Paramount+ will be producing TMNT movies around the villains.

[shredder orokusaki]

No i will nevers top fighting and killing the turltes and the Splinter! Iwill fight them forever!! The movie is the best movie of the year and the next series will start after that!

Kids today don't seem very interested in TMNT. The Michael Bay movies really dragged the franchise down. It could definitely still be revived though. Maybe the Mutant Mayhem movie will be a good starting point.

[Anarchistguy]

I do think that the franchise needs a break, take time to breathe. I think kids are getting burnt out on TMNT.

Iam very popular and evryone loves me! I will never stop hunting the turtles and Splinter! Only the 2018 series was failure because it was les serious than the 1987 series. The 2016 movie failed becaus i didnt fough the turtles. The 2014 mvoie was very succesful as i fought and brutally beat the turtles it was the best movie of the year.

I have defeated April many times. She did nothing. I THEN hit her very brutally and took my revenge.

I don't know. Haven't been following the property in years now. And I'd be alright if it being over at this point. None of the Viacom era stuff has appealed to me.

is tmnt as we know it over

I’d guess not, what with Nick securing the OT rights, and announcing a sequel to a movie that hasn’t even hit yet, to say nothing of the two season series to follow said movie, I’d say the franchise will see bright days ahead.

Even without the movie stuff/new series, Nick airing the OT will keep it burning for awhile longer.

Assuming those plans work out that just means the franchise continuing to exist but if it's not a good product then I'm not sure it's really "bright days" we have ahead.

Just to have TMNT Product™ out there at all? Is that supposed to give me some kind of comfort, knowing that there are new kiddies consuming said TMNT Product™? Weird. It does the opposite, if it doesn't work. It just means in 10 years those kiddies will grow up with a false expectation of what TMNT is or should be because they grew up watching crap TMNT, if anything (and then yell at me on social media).

to be fair, i grew up watching the 87 series, which is (in my opinion) the worst Turtles out there. While I appreciate what id did for the franchise, its not my expectation that TMNT should be a campy Saturday morning cartoon even though that (and the movies) were my entire exposure of the turtles for 15 years.

...That describes every TMNT animated series ever. Even the 23k show.

Varying degrees of drama yes, but it's all still rather silly.

(update: he says this, but shills for Mutant Mayhem, which is probably even sillier than the old show ever was, so he's full of crap)

"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles brand is heading toward $1 billion+ in global retail sales.
By the way, that’s for 2023 YTD alone, all built by Paramount."


woweee

[Shark_Blade]

It ain’t over til the fat lady sings.

[ZariusTwo]

Well, the thread's title is accurate

It's 'over' in a completely different sense of the word, 'over' with the audience like how LA Knight is 'over' in wrestling.
