Topics like this aren't allowed since it leads to bashing and flaming.

*PizzaPower* · 11-30-2003, 08:57 AM

I like them both. So there no fighting.

**DarthRaphael** · 11-30-2003, 11:37 AM

Dosen't matter. Both are good toons. Neither one is better.

I'll let Krang decide if he wants this locked or not.

*cqb101* · 11-30-2003, 01:19 PM

IU like the new oe better for many reasons.

Anyway, this thread will be locked soon so it doesn't matter. Some people are too imature to discuss things like this without bashing.

milweskee · 11-30-2003, 01:36 PM

That sucks if they lock this, I was curious to see what you guys thought. What happened to free speech?

**Barkworm** · 11-30-2003, 01:55 PM

Free speech as far as the old toon is concerned led to bashing, flaming and insults here, so topics like this one are forbidden.
And btw I think it's ridiculous to compare these shows since they are different as day and night!

MW8979 · 11-30-2003, 02:48 PM

Exactly. They both have their good qualities. About the only thing you can compare is maybe the difference between the characters, but that doesn't really matter because it's all relative. I think the way TMNT are portrayed in each show perfectly suits the situation.

milweskee · 11-30-2003, 02:52 PM

Like I said, if you don't have a useful reply, then don't. The question is, which series do you like better? What's up with people and irrelevant speculation? Yeah, so they are different...which did you like better?

Neither show is better or worse then the other. It's unfair to even try to compare them, because they both have their strengths and weaknesses. I like the old show for various reasons, and I like the new show for various reasons. To compare and contrast the strengths and weaknesses of each series is unfair. They're both good for their time. And comparing them just leads to people bashing the old show. Which is against the rules of the forum. Besides, the old show lasted about 10 years. When the new show has done that, then we can talk.

Meira-Bates · 11-30-2003, 03:27 PM

Aherm...the thing is...you THINK the old toon sucks, and just cause you think that doesn't make it so. Both cartoons are good. The problem is, some people here aren't mature enough to understand that some people like the old show, and they flame, bash, ect fans of the old show, that's why threads like this one aren't alowed. While I like the new show better, I agree...it's not a fair comparison...the old show was ment to be comedy driven, then new show is ment to be action driven...it's just not the same...just cause I like the new show better does not mean the old show sucks, it just means that the more serious theme suits my tastes better, I still like the old show too.

Also, this is a private message board that is owned and run by Krang. Free Speech doesn't apply in cases like this. You agree to follow the rules of the forum, so have to agree to the terms of service. Which includes following the rules of not bashing the old toon.

**Karpo_007** · 11-30-2003, 03:58 PM

It's totally unfair comparison. It's like comparing the 60's Batman with Adam West to Burton's movies with Micheal Keaton.

They were producing a good cartoon, and even when I watch the new one, I think BOTH are EQUALLY good.

I hate these god damn threads, someone lock it

milweskee · 11-30-2003, 05:03 PM

When speaking of free speech, I realize the obvious rules of the forum, but that doesn't rule out the institution of American philsophy. But it's a lost cause. This site and it's forum are obviously biased.

Yes, it does. The right to free speech ends, on privately owned message boards. You have to follow the rules of the board above the right to free speech. It's just like if Krang owned a newspaper, you may have the right to free speech. But he doesn't have to allow it to be printed in his news paper. The site and forum arn't biased, they were built to honor the old toon, because the owner is a fan of the old toon. The new toon is good, but it should never be a reason to bash the old toon. So in a way, yes you are correct. It is a lost cause. Because 1. It's an unfair comparison, they are both good in their own respects. 2. It's against the rules of the forum to bash the old toon.

Lone Wolf · 11-30-2003, 05:26 PM

As far as "this board is biased" is concerned, cry me a river milweskee. Krang busts his ass on this site, and I gurantee you his primary motive is not to erect a platform from which you can piss all over everything that inspired him to build it in the first place. If you are so damn passionate about the principle of "freedom of Speech" on a PRIVATELY OWNED message board, go open up your own. You will have all the freedom you want there.

*jeff the cheff* · 11-30-2003, 05:41 PM

I dont think this thread should be locked, I think it's interesting to see who likes what, and just because they are so different doesnt mean you can't compare them and say what you like about each. Most people in real life like the old show better, but people here dont like it. I think the old show was more of a cartoon that everyone can enjoy, while the new one is just for the fans.

**Karpo_007** · 11-30-2003, 06:02 PM

The topic is pointless. There was a poll on this, and the results were clear. No reason to do this every week, especially if it will start flaming.

ichi · 11-30-2003, 06:09 PM

eep.. i like the old series better.. ever notice how the turtles seem like they're in their 20s in the new cartoon? Their voices suck nowadays, and april looks as if shes 15..
phew! im glad i got that out.
