There's only three complaints I'm gonna make about TMNT 3:
1 - The TMNT looked like frogs.
2 - Splinter looked like a dog.
3 - No Renet (and I've never even heard of that character until a few years ago)

I guess TMNT doesn't fall into that category?

1) I don't want to be a complete bunghole, but he's NOT Bush JR...technically, his dad is "GHWB" while he's just "GWB"...flame me.

2) I just remembered another dumb line from TMNT 3:

Don: "Ugh! I think I just swallowed a frog! Hope it wasn't an ancestor..."

That's actually a good sign for you; you haven't seen it enough times to memorize all those lines, whereas I had to suffer endless hours seeing that horrid excuse of a movie.

sure, the super kiddyfied mainstream TMNT was in that Simpsons time frame(back when Bart Simpson was everywhere) but those who remember know the TMNT best from the late 80's

Im pretty sure that All original Mirage fans will always remember TMNT, but most of the original cartoon fans have long ago forgotten it. The main stream TMNT was just a craze like pokemon is today, but the Mirage TMNT was a much more deeper experience.

I sure as hell haven't! And I'm an original cartoon fan!

Though I did stop watching the series some time in 1993 (actually, I don't remember when it was that I stopped watching it), there was never a time that I didn't like it. Every time I heard somebody had one of the games somewhere, I was always the first one to jump up and say, "OOO! OOO! I'LL PLAY!" To anybody that's read my post on my fanfic ideas, they'll know that one of the ideas for it originated back in '98 or '99, a few years after I thought I'd lost that TMNT touch.

The first movie is by far the best one. The second one was humorous but aliright. The third one in my opinion was the worst one. It did not follow the other two very well.

Re :

I just saw #3 again yesterday :

-Plot was OK.

-Villains didn't match Shredder but were OK.

-CJ returning was cool , he's one of my fav supporting characters

-It's OK with a little humor but it became a bit too much.

I give it 3 out of 6 points.

#1 will always be the best , #2 was decent (minus VI)

I think #2 was a lot better than #3. Although #2 definitely was geared towards the younger, mainstream audience, it was still decent and featured our faves like Tatsua, the Foot, and Shredder. I was disappointed that Casey didn't come back though. Also, since I was a little kid, I was real confused by April being a different actress. Anyways, although I hardly remember #3, I do remember that it was totally lame. The plot was again made for little kids, but this time it didn't have one oz. of TMNT familiarity to it. Unfortunately I don't remember Casey returning, so can anyone inform me on his role in the movie?

I'll make one more comment regarding TMNT 3:

I just watched it again for the first time in a long time a couple of weeks ago, and it was worse than I remembered...

Casey's role in TMNT III was limited to babysitting the samurai from the past. However, Elias Koteas also played Wit, a pirate that April befriends (and Raph jokes with, asking him if he has any relatives). I was sad that Casey didn't get to go with the turtles...

Boy, the third movie never gets any love. I must be one of only four people on the planet who 1) not only enjoyed the third movie, but 2) thought it was the best one in the series.

I can't quite say what it is about this movie that I like better than the first two. It's definitely more kid-friendly, which is always a plus in my book. I was glad they dropped the horrendous Super Shredder theme from the second movie and went back in time in the third film. I'd much rather watch Raphael teaching kids to fly kites and giving them advice about "watching their tempers" then see some actor in a ridiculous body suit and stomping around like an idiot.

The third movie was also the funniest of the three:

Donatello: "Did you know that in some countries dung is used as a fuel source?"

Raphael: "Did you hear what that guy called me, Leo?"
Leonardo: "Yeah, an ugly lump of dung!"

I also felt the third movie had more heart than the first two. I didn't care that Tokka and Rahzar were tearing up streets and flipping over cars. I didn't care that they didn't like doughnuts. But I did care when Michaelangelo ran into a burning building to save a child, and I did care when he got left behind in ancient Japan for a few minutes.

Even though the third movie is almost universally condemned, which makes no sense whatsoever, I will always consider it the best out of the three movies that were made.

Irma: "Where are you bozos taking me?"
Bebop: "Hey, lady. You ask too many questions."
Irma: "Well, how you expect me to learn anything?"
