People Dressed Up?

1984TMNT · 03-23-2007, 05:17 PM

Hey everyone, I'm going to the 10:10pm show tonight and I'm curious for feedback from those who have gone already...were there large crowds and/or people sporting their TMNT gear??

*Raph's Girl* · 03-23-2007, 05:22 PM

Pretty nice crowds for an afternoon showing. But then again the kids got a 3 day weekend here.

I did notice I was the only one there who was wearing anything TMNT related. I wore my hoodie, a pewter turtle necklase, my TMNT movie shirt, my purple dragon shoes, a hat with a pin on it (an old Don pin that I had gotten in a happy meal WAAY back in 1990), as well as a pewter turtle bracelet, my TMNT watch, and my italian charm bracelet (I have like 5 or 6 turtle charms). One kid at the book store noticed my shirt and exclaimed to his mom "I want that shirt!!"

Wow, that is VERY impressive!!!!!

I will be sporting my new TMNT shirt tonight, (http://www.hottopic.com/hottopic/sto...1174688568326), while my GF will be sporting both of these:

I have been thinking about what else I could do, but besides bringing my action figures with me (which my family would simply not allow lol) i'm fresh out of ideas.

One kid going with his dad at the theatre arrived rather excitedly one of the TMNT McDonald's figures. It was the Leo and he played with it while his dad baught tickets. *lol*

I was wearing a green t-shirt that says ninja on it and has Raphael's head above.

I didn't notice anyone else wearing anything.

Ra · 03-23-2007, 08:29 PM

I'm going to grab some red material and cut it out into a red bandanna, and possibly buy some toy sai. Then I'm probably going to go up to the ticket box and jokingly ask for a ticket to see "Mr. Bean's Holiday" or something that can not be related to TMNT in any way, just to see the reaction to whoever is serving me before I ask for my real ticket

*starts waiting the long wait of 2 weeks*

*Cascadia* · 03-23-2007, 09:06 PM

I wore my Italian charm bracelet and one of my new TMNT movie T-shirts. My t-shirt was a big hit at the movie theater. Everybody wanted to know where I got my T-shirt.

~~BartAllen~~ · 03-23-2007, 09:21 PM

I did see one kid with a TMNT T-shirt. No one wearing a costume or anything though.

Peanut · 03-23-2007, 09:26 PM

I didn't have anything, but JameO had his TMNT shirt on, and he also got one of those Happy Meal toys from McDonalds before we went in, so I was making it dance on the seat in front of me while singing the Ninja Rap. Kids were scared.

actully I think perhaps they do well at least some kids do because while going t the bathroom after the movie (those giant drinks will get ya!) I over heard to children both maybe about 10 i'd think said that they liked the old movies better and I'm not making this up.

The kids in this movie didn't know for sure. They were all under 7 at least. My posse were the oldest fans there. Anyone older was a parent, but who knows, some of them might have been Turtles fans too!

CJStyles · 03-23-2007, 10:14 PM

At my showing they had 3 twenty year olds sporting 80s version TMNT gear

Karai · 03-23-2007, 10:23 PM

I wore my black and red "Splinter's Dojo" t-shirt (Got it from 80stees.com a couple of years ago, it's not the same version as the one seen on hottopic.com). I saw a couple other teenagers wearing 2k3 toon shirts.

*tmntman* · 03-23-2007, 10:36 PM

Maybe I should have taken the crew jacket I have from the second movie. I might have been able to get a free ticket. Of course it doesn't actually fit.

*Tinuvielsdreams* · 03-23-2007, 11:19 PM

I only saw one other girl wearing any TMNT stuff besides my sister and myself.
I wore a shirt I made and my sweatshirt with the sais embroidered in the pockets, I had my big 80's TMNT pin and I since I didn't have much else to wear I decided to take my stuffed Mikey with me.

My friends little girl also gave me on of the McDonald's toy, I gave her gummy bears in exchange for it

*Buslady* · 03-23-2007, 11:20 PM

It's been hot here so I didn't take the trenchie...

instead I wore a TMNT shirt, ponytailed my hair with a hair tie with a red ribbon tied to that and took my Raph plushie then I bought the sai hoodie at Hot Topic, aannnd wore a necklance with a charm made by a fellow fan and my Italian charm bracelet...I was stylin

Sliced · 03-23-2007, 11:38 PM

I wasn't working today, so I was able to go to the 2:30pm screening. I of course did that to avoid the kids. But man, we were 7. Me my friend, and some kids with their parents to see the movie.

I'm pretty sure that it will fill up in the weekend, everybody enjoyed the movie, 2 of the kids did asked to see it again the same day with some friends. But no one was wearing any tmnt stuff. But one of the kids had a leo action figure.
