Seriously? That's the promotional video? I could make a better video with a production team of monkeys. I can't believe they let a bunch of morons work on this when there's fans out there, real ones not retarded college/high school kids who think turtles is cool because it's "retro", that could do a way better job.

at least they gave us a heads up that it was silly... And silly it was, silly willy!

Adam Riches · 01-12-2009, 04:18 PM

Well there went a 1:40 of my life I'll never get back.

*Ninjinister* · 01-12-2009, 04:46 PM

Am I alone in thinking it should have been professional, and not "wacky" (*cough*stupid*cough*)?

*CyberCubed* · 01-12-2009, 05:07 PM

We had a thread about this I remember, and yeah we made fun of it then.

*Kendamu* · 01-12-2009, 05:53 PM

I know a lot of people don't, but I like the silliness. Sure, something that looks better would've been cooler, but I like what we got for what it is.

*Roseangelo* · 01-12-2009, 07:00 PM

Silly can be good and silly can be crap. I like good silly. This is just crap.

Sounded as if that guy said Cowabonga.....

Canadian Turtle · 01-12-2009, 09:43 PM

Well at least what we working on right now looks 10 million times better...

The Shelf · 01-12-2009, 09:59 PM

Haha, I forgot about this thing. It's just as embarrassing now as it was when they first revealed it. I hope it's only a pitch video and not something they plan to use for any public advertisement.

Silly or not, it's embarrasing.

How much would it cost me to see you actually do that? I have no doubt it'd be better than this, but I'm ever so intrigued by your challenge. I MUST SEE IT!

The fact that it's been on ninjaturtles.com, on their Youtube channel, and now on the 25th anniversary site... how often do you see pitch videos released to the public on purpose?

**Jester** · 01-12-2009, 10:36 PM

*shrugs* COWABONGA DUDS!!

*Nickokapo* · 01-12-2009, 10:49 PM

What a disgrace

come on, it's the 25th anniversary!I was expecting maybe a short history on the turtles...or not, just not this...i wonder if they're preparing something else...i saw crt/tanaka (whoever they are) displayed at the end of the video, maybe mirage studios will be making their own video?

*sdp* · 01-12-2009, 10:52 PM

Shredder getting runover was pretty funny.

Yeah its kind of dumb but at least they are doing something for the 25th anniversary. Hundreds of franchises have much worse anniversaries.

Leonardo Mystic · 01-12-2009, 11:09 PM

Pathetic. -_- I would have thought they'd do a little short animation of the Turtles promoting the anniversary. Not this basement production with college kids wearing colored rags and bad acting.

prescribeddrone · 01-13-2009, 12:11 AM

Wow, that was. ... atrocious.

Ew.
