Last time I did a series rewatch, I tried to count how many fight scenes there were in each episode. Some episodes had a lot of fighting, while others had no real fighting at all.

Its actually kinda funny how they did an action cartoon with no fighting in some episodes...

The classic toon was really more of a comedic take on the old goodguy/badguy shows from the 60s, especially during seasons 3 and 6

All the different pizza topings, reused one-liners (like Bebop's "you little creep", Shredder's "tonight, I dine on turtle soup", etc), blatantly reused themes (age reversal, time travel, body-swap, etc), # of times guest characters or vehicles show up, mobsters, mutants, mad scientists, aliens, dimensions...

That's all I've got ATM. I don't expect you to do all of them. Just giving you options.

Is anyone else emailing them about the Turtle Tip shorts?

No. Just you. And, all Lionsgate employees are instructed to ignore you... for some reason.

I get that it's "fun" to make fun of CC but how can the fandom not express any interest in trying to get the Turtle Tips shorts out? Most other fandoms would go out out of their way to help out, and it's like this fandom doesn't even care.

*CyberCubed* · 05-30-2012, 12:59 PM

My only hope for the Turtle Tip shorts is they're the last special feature.

LeoNerdo · 05-30-2012, 02:38 PM

It takes a few minutes to watch all or most of them on youtube. If they were included it'd be great, but it won't bother me if they're not. I'm happy to have all of the episodes, and that's all I really wanted to begin with.

Burping or croaking? Because I often interpreted it to be the latter, myself.

A meter would probably break if one had to measure all the times everyone (mainly, the villains) insulted each other. I don't have all the DVDs, so if anyone would want to take up the cause until I can, I certainly would be appreciative. And besides, no one has lived until he/she heard Shredder utter "mutant moron" for the millionth time?

As for whether Turtleoids will be in a single episode format, vs. its syndication splitting, I'll bet (and hope) on the former. Especially, as we'll have chapter/scene selection to deal with any format issues (which Lionsgate has become decent at with latter TMNT DVD releases). However, if they do the latter, as long as it is uncut, it isn't necessarily the end of the world, either.

Why don't you have all the DVDs? You can buy pretty much all of them online right now, and for cheap too.

The polite non-answer would probably be "none of your business," as I frankly don't wish to discuss about my current DVD/money issues. However, I'll still give a decent answer. As I may have said before, any spare DVD money that varies from month-to-month has to go on soon-to-be out-of-print Pokemon DVDs -- because, I, like an idiot, didn't buy them, at the time, as I didn't care for the DVD format, back then -- then focus on the 87 Turtle DVDs. It's a matter of priority, and I don't have to worry about the 87 Turtle DVDs immediately becoming scarce or expensive. (Conversely, someone said on the thread or elsewhere on the forum about one of the 2003 DVDs being really expensive, so.) One thing at a time, okies? Besides, I got the essential-for-me seasons (1-2, 7 and 8 for curiosity's sake, mostly), so that's enough for now.

Fortunately, I should be able to grab up Season 10, when it's out in August. Granted, I'll be pushing myself about it, because of the Turtleoids special, but motivation is motivation. (Because I want my Chrome Dome 1st appearance caps, darn it.)

do you know why the Pokemon dvds are going out of print?

Also the release of the final season dvd of tmnt can not get here fast enough

It depends, as some sets are easier and relatively cheap to get, and some really aren't (especially in mint or really-close-to-mint condition, which is a big deal for me). My best guess -- and take it for what it's worth -- for the out-of-print is time (the last release from the series I want was done 5 years ago) and the fact they haven't been re-released in any form since. Technically, yes, select episodes were released for the 10th anniversary DVDs and the new Elements series, but it isn't the same thing. Viz for whatever reason is being really lazy about a re-release, which really doesn't help matters. Weren't for that, I would wait until one of their new box sets, as done with the first few seasons.

It's a headache, but as seen from the TMNT 87 DVDs, I don't have such concern with that series, not yet. After all that, I'll try to figure on the 2003 series DVDs, but it's probably best to wait further. (I love the series, but 300 bucks to get a DVD? No, thank you.)

Are you talking about the Johto DVDs? Those only have 3 eps per disc and are from like 2002 or something.

Kanto and Orange Islands were re-released in nice boxsets only 2-3 years ago I believe. Plus all the newer seasons get regular boxsets ever since Battle Frontier.

Oh please, it was just harmless curiosity. I only asked since he seemed so enthused about them.
