Something about how it was animated. The angles were simplified too much in the run of the show, they looked like green Yeild signs with a ninja mask on it.

That opening shot in the Turtle Titan episode.... maybe it was at the wrong angle, but his mouth looked like an upside down V. Tikes.

Yeah, I don't like in FF how their heads look like upside down pentagons.

I am hoping that since the turtles will have pupils this time around that my sister will give it a shot. She utterly refused to watch the 2k3 series because she said the turtles looked too 'evil' with no pupils.

I'm not sure what to think of those designs quite yet, it's hard to tell without animation and context, but I just hope the stories and scripts get less stupid. And it would be neat if the show was to get a lot darker (both in terms of storytelling and sunlight) and more dramatic than it appears to have been lately (I gave up after one or two episodes of Fast Forward...did I miss anything worthwhile?).

I haven't seen that episode. I'll look for it on Youtube later.

I think they like funny mouths, ever since they did it to Bishop in FF. He kinda had a bunny mouth I hope they don't keep that . . .

Yes you certainly did, those episodes sucked (Home Invasion was good tho) but the show really started to get good near the end.

They looked MUCH better as action figures and production art. But when they animated them, they made them look so flat..... especially in close ups. There are certain times their heads almost looked triangular.

i think they look alright with pupils, although im not saying that they are better with no pupils. i still prefer all white for their eyes, but pupils do show their expressions and what they're thinking and who they're looking at and stuff like that. it also fits very well on them too.

even though the turtles didn't have pupils I thought the animators did a pretty good job at conveying emotion with the white outed eyes.

This preview seems to suggest that they lose thier pupils in cyber space.

I prefer no pupils. How are you going to scare criminals when you have big bright, beautiful eyes ? You'll never see Batman or Daredevil with Manga eyes.

personaly I think the pupils are going to grow on me. I do wish they gave the turtles diffrent colored eyes other than green, but all the same I'm starting to like it. The only thing I'm concerned about is how the turtle's eye will look showing emotion. I hope they don't go all beedy eyes when something freaks them out, cause that would stink.
