Turtle Tuesdays by James Rolfe (AVGN)

*sdp* · 04-05-2011, 10:17 AM

James Rolfe better known as the Angry Video Game Nerd will be doing Turtle related videos every tuesday through the Summer and he'll apparently be reviewing the OT during those.
The first video is a re-make of his TMNT Generation video thats been up on his angrynintendonerd youtube channel since his start.

Pretty awesome, especially since it was the TMNT NES game review that made the AVGN (and Screwattack) get noticed and a household name so the turtles definitely helped him become an internet celebrity.

when it shows the guys playing with them as if they were kids, it reminds me of that school project that Spitfire did where he's on the floor playing with action figures while wearing a mask.

wow, that was incredibly funny even though I've already seen it once before. The new footage is cool. Man James was skinny back then.

Yup, it was made when the first cut was shown.

Newton Gimmick · 04-06-2011, 10:02 PM

That sink is very gross.

**Jester** · 04-06-2011, 10:12 PM

Oye for "Donatello does machines."

*Jephael* · 04-06-2011, 10:33 PM

That is so cool! Believe it or not I know someone who knows the Angry Video Game Nerd and I wrote a TMNT book review I was going to have him make a cameo in.

Fugitoid Jones · 04-09-2011, 09:27 PM

James is the man. I love that guy. Now I'll have something to look forward to on tuesdays!

I wonder if he'll do new reviews of the movies? He touched upon the first two in his video on TMNT 3, so I wonder if he'll expand on them.

I'm kinda "meh..." about this. He wants Krang and the Technodrome in a new movie...*shrugs*

Bruce Campbell or Jeff Goldblum as Vernon?

Who doesn't?

*Revan* · 04-12-2011, 08:04 AM

I love his AVGN videos but I couldn't disagree with him more about his wishlist. Almost everything him and his friend said made me cringe.

*ToTheNines* · 04-12-2011, 08:31 AM

Yeah, pretty dumb. They keep saying they want a dark turtles movie, but you can only get so dark with such a cartoonish alien invasion story like that.

*oldmanwinters* · 04-12-2011, 10:15 AM

I am shocked that James's friend Mike admitted to going into the theatre to see the first live-action movie having never seen a trailer and assuming it was simply going to be a cartoon. I guess he missed the "Hey, Dudes, this is No Cartoon!" tagline on the threatrical poster? Dang, that's pretty embarrassing.

Ditto. I was hoping for something more of substance considering AVGN recently watched the whole OT series.

TerranigmaFreak · 04-12-2011, 03:21 PM

I'm pretty sure they weren't entirely serious. I mean, part of it is real, but part of it was just them injecting some humor into the video.

FearlessLeader · 04-12-2011, 07:46 PM

I was pretty ready to give all of their suggestions a chance even if I didn't agree with them until they said they didn't want Casey in the new movie.

They want the channel 6 crew but not Casey Jones??

A guy I know made a rather interesting response to James and Mike's video:

Fugitoid Jones · 04-14-2011, 02:58 AM

^^ "Mike Mattel" ??? It's Mike MATEI.

And I'm all for Bruce Campbell as Vernon! That would be sick!
