Next Mutation

[Jester]

At the time I think they both were involved with her creation, Laird was just not that keen on the idea.

Not sure why some fans hate Venus, so far I like her.

Then I wonder if we will see her again in the near future (ie IDW Comic)

Another thing that's gimmicky were those weird transitions that they used, such as a pair of sais or fire (oh no, the Leonardo is burning!) in between scenes. It's definitely a "not for everyone" show, and still disappointing that it didn't receive a proper finale.

Someone just watched James Rolfe's TMNT Live Action Left-Overs video.

Who was it that used to say "A turtle with boobs... how hot is that??"? Was it Jaleel White?

[Jester]

Yeah that's the kid...

Did they actually say that in the ot? I always thought they thought of each other as brothers in the ot.

[Jester]

Seldom do they ever call each other "brothers" more often "friends", or Splinter will call them "students" rather than "sons."

I think I can count on 1 hand the number of times they refereed to each other in familial terms. Heck, in the episodes when they revert to kids they call Splinter "Uncle."

Yeah this is one reason I appreciated the 2k3 series so much more. This is one of the aspects that I think the 2k3 series blows the OT out of the water

O well I'll still think of them as brothers And thats all that matters to me.

I think she'd be cool as a villain. More of a one dimensional minion though, not a "big bad".

TMNT have been reinvented many times along with their supporting cast (Leatherhead, Shredder, Karai, etc).

Venus on the other hand has only seen one form and thats how we know her. I personally don't like Venus, however I like seeing characters reinvented and shown in a different perspective

Funny, for all the people that Hate the next mutation, I've never heard a single valid complaint.

People don't like it because Peter Laird don't like it.

People don't like it because people don't like the idea of a female turtle.

The failure of logic is staggering. I'll have to put in on my 'to watch' list.

[ToTheNines]

Wow dude, way to ignore what most people are saying.

I don't hate it, but it's a garbage show. The voice acting is questionable, the animatronics are poor, the writing is not creative or very intelligent, the use (and abuse) of stock footage is embarrassing, the sound effects are moronic and there is a reptile with teets. Covered by plastron, but they're still teets.

Be easy on the noob, he is probably not talking about people here necessarily, but from other opinions, not on this board.

But I gotta say a Female turtle jst looks awful IMO, I have never seen a Venus Design that I can say I like, I think is bc how ridiculous boobs under plastron looks.

[gobo]

Real female mutant turtles don't have boobs. Fact.

real??? female MUTANT turtles do.
Real female turtles do not, but since they are humanoid, they have humanoid features.
Turtles also don't have thumbs. Do turtles have teeth?

[Jester]

RAWR!! I hate the Next Mutation for no conceivable reason...

Aside from:
1. The degradation of the Shredder. I mean the guy was beaten by shinobi mind tricks... LAME!
2. The incessant and unnecessary sound effects and transitions. Do we need Three Stooges sounds over fight scenes? And why are there spinning Turtle shells every five minutes?
3. The cast, especially Splinter, is laughable.
4. 2 clip shows in 26 episodes? Really?
5. and to me the big one...

Say what you will about the possibility of the Turtles not being biologically related, they are an ADOPTIVE family. They are as much brothers through adoption as my sister and I are siblings by blood.
