Wolfie I am glad that you referred to SK too!!

Preview Pics for next week's episode: Across the Universe

Aska_Badoura · 03-05-2005, 01:24 PM

I loved it! It was just so hokey!

--Turtle Anatomy Rant-- The scanner they had showed Mike's skeletal structure. I WISH someone would do research on a turtle's skeleton some time. It doesn't look like that, unless they've drastically changed inside when they mutated. I'm embarassed, I've made mutant-Turtle bone-structure diagrams and everything.

Quote:

And Mikey and Mikey HAD to think alike, otherwise I don't think the superhero version of him could have pulled off that whole acting bit with The Sliver. Two Mikeys...a horror for turtles in both dimensions. >.>

LOL. Bloboid was a little less... random. Mentally, anyway. Physically, he was all over the map.

It did kind of bother me that that was the only time he changed color as well as shape, though. That could be a useful talent.

Quote:

Anyway, this episode was good; pretty funny. I do wonder though, was Mikey sent back home, or somewhere else? Methinks he may have been sent somewhere else. Maybe the Nexus? It just seems strange that Ultimate-Draco's magic would have something more in store...

I was surprised when they left that a mystery, but I guess it's more interesting that way. We'll have to see at the end of the arc.

Quote:

I think Mikey scared Klunk because he was trying to pat his head and Klunk moved away!

I read it more as him gesturing widely as he was talking, and Klunk ducking out of the way.

Quote:

It was nice, too, to see Mikey being given credit for his intelligence for once in his idea for solving the problem of the Sliver (cool parody of Splinter's name, btw). He's a LOT smarter than his brothers, and even Master Splinter, give him credit for being, and I hope they get into that more as the seasons go on.

Yeah, I did like that. He does think very creatively, and sometimes that's what you need to get out of a sticky situation.

Quote:

On last note: I did NOT like how easily that "Ultimate Drako" found the Lair.

What can I say? The Time Scepter is dangerous. Allows you to pinpoint specific locations, as well as specific points in time. Not something good for a vengeful duo to have.

*blinks* Random thought: the Battle Nexus tournament is multi-dimensional. Why, then, don't the Superturtles know about it? I guess not all dimensions have discovered the Nexus yet.

Quote:

Did anyone notice that the actors sounded like they're trying to deliver those lines in a corny fashion as well? Like Leonardo when he was leading the turtles at the enterance of Sliver's fortress.

LOL, yes! They did a great job. (er, which I do mean as a compliment, in this case

)

Quote:

One gripe: (and if KROW were here he'd so second this) Casey....what's with the sudden change from tough street vigilantie to bumbling oaf?? please...i beg of u write Casey better....

Aww... they were coming at him from an unexpected angle, I liked it. He looked nice with the tidy hair too, though not something I'd recommend for the 'normal' Casey. :p Speaking of hair, April's was longer, and a bit more wild, I thought. Guess that's a comic book thing too.

Quote:

What was with the number when they were showing the preview of next episode. Which look cool and Raph got a new bike.

He ends up having to compete in the races. It's his racing number. I doubt he'll get to keep the bike, though.

Now I feel like I have to read Planet Racers. Which was Peter Laird's plan, I'm sure.

Semi-off topic: Okay, alternate-dimension super-heroine Venus is now in my list of things to draw for my website...

Any ideas for powers? (besides instantly killing oneself, you guys... :p)

**Kali** · 03-05-2005, 02:40 PM

This episode was so… well, exactly how they intended it, I’m sure. I’ve never been a big fan of superheroes, and this episode had me cringing and rolling my eyes plenty of times. If I wasn’t recording it, I may have changed the channel.

But I liked seeing everyone’s counterparts, even if it was one corny cliché after another. LOL! But comics were built on this foundation, and it was a fun ride.

And super-powered Venus is obviously telepathic/telekinetic. Though having her turn invisible would please more people.

*Kazari* · 03-05-2005, 02:54 PM

Yeah send her in a dimensional rift please! LOL

Aska_Badoura · 03-05-2005, 03:35 PM

Yes indeed. I might throw that in just for grins.

Quote:

:p Hey, I'm trying to improve her, remember? You're not supposed to want to get rid of her, I've barely started yet.

Now, BACK on topic...

Sanjuro · 03-05-2005, 03:41 PM

AH, this was the first episode I recorded in High Definition using my DVR box. Worked beautifully! Also I just read the comic while at work today that the characters in this episode were based on. Very good episode, I cannot wait to see the other 3 in this series.

*Kazari* · 03-05-2005, 03:55 PM

Okay Okay Aska! I trust you *Giggles*

creativerealms82 · 03-05-2005, 04:05 PM

yeah this episode was very corny but that was the plan and it worked out nice. I liked that them joked around about comic bood Cliche's such as Sliver's bomb none having a shut off feature. It seems every super villian always has a shut off feature for their weapon's of mass destruction and it was a nice jab having Sliver comment that he did not.

Splinter ok Sliver in this case was killed again this is the third time Splinter died this season.

*Kazari* · 03-05-2005, 04:06 PM

Maybe the writers are going through this "I Hate Splinter" phase LOL

**Jester** · 03-05-2005, 04:34 PM

makes sence....considering how little Sensi is in the show recently....

Leonardo Mystic · 03-05-2005, 05:39 PM

*giggles* This was really good, even if it was totally off the chain with weirdness. I liked Leo's counterpart because he could fly, and he looked wonderful in his costume.

I loved the scene at the beginning where Leonardo was practicing, and slicing candles with his katanas. So that means, screen capture request time. ^_^

*Kazari* · 03-05-2005, 05:58 PM

Here's something funny that my friend pointed out to me. In Big Brawl Part 4 when Traximus is talking to Raphael about the assassin rat. He goes "Goes by the name of Shard..or Sliver.." LOL Then today Splinter was called Sliver.

Dinogrrl · 03-05-2005, 06:25 PM

That was a fun, goofy episode. The super turtles were well done, totally what one would expect from superheroes. I'm no superhero fan either, but it was an entertaining ep, especially the part where Mikey came up with the idea of Lavoid impersonating him to escape. And evil Splinter/Sliver was awesome!

Never having seen Planet Racers, it'll be up in the air as to how next week's will go, but bikes and Raph go together like ham and cheese, so it should work fine.

BTW Kazari - I like your new Don sig. especially where Electroturtle or whatever he was called is posed in the middle.

*Kazari* · 03-05-2005, 06:31 PM

LOL Thanks!! I do too! It took me forever to make this sig!

*J Legault* · 03-05-2005, 10:13 PM

This episode was good for another superhero episode.

We always know Mikey dreams of being in comic book world till this episode was his dream came true.

I laughed when he comments how cool everything in the Superhero world is.

April as the Mayor. I agree with Mikey very cool. XD

Casey as April's clumsy attendent very funny. Doesn't use Violence for solving unlike the Casey we know.

Sliver reminds me of that GnatRat charater that appear in one TMNT issue, same idea with a Splinter look alike only it turned out it's not GnatRat but an evil Splinter named Sliver.

I thought it cool to see them make a statue dicaded to Mikey aka TurtleTitan! I bet Mikey would be so thrilled if he saw that Statue.

I think the next 4 episodes will each show what turtle is doing till Ultimate Drako appears then part 5 will show where Mikey ends up in. I bet each of the endings will incould the turtles erased out in the ending.

Rate: 5/5, Raph in Planet Racer Universe cool!

IceFlash78 · 03-05-2005, 10:21 PM

:cries: WHY WHY...

As you can probably tell, I didn't see this episode

I was in NY for scholarship interviews at Hobart and William Smith colleges. And it sounded sooooo good too!

I can promise you that I WILL not miss next week's episode!

*Kazari* · 03-05-2005, 10:37 PM

Awww Im sorry

How did ur interviews go? You can see the new ep next week starting March 15 on CN at 2:30pm

Doppleganger · 03-05-2005, 10:57 PM

I liked the episode. It wasn't serious but pure fun. I do find that comment Traximus made funny now Kaz.

Hey want to know another thing I thought I saw connected to the Battle Nexus? Anyone remember Klaw? He was the big purple guy Mikey fought in the finals of the Battle Nexus. I thought I saw him as one of the villains that the Superturtles pointed out.

Casey being an oaf again was not good.

I liked the Superturtles. But I think a better name would'a been "Teen Turtles". Especially since their light looked the big T that is Titan's Tower in the cartoon.

Ookami Blue · 03-05-2005, 11:01 PM

Leo with whip= good episode
