Ah who knows, I bet they will make references to Krang, bebop, and rocksteady...you watch....but that is true though, 80's cartoon themes RULE! Lets not stray to far from the subject though...hehe

*Anarchistguy* · 02-09-2003, 07:02 PM

The new show is perfect just the way it is!! (in my humble opinion)

**DarthRaphael** · 02-09-2003, 07:06 PM

I like everything so far. It's more real to me.

Personally, I think that they tried to get a sleeker more modern look and made the colors to dark. The old cartoon was so much brighter and happier. The same thing happens with NFL games on FOX, and I get depressed, and i like watching ones on CBS better. Anyways, Its hard to get depressed when watching the turtles, so im not too mad

Not so much changes, but disappointments.
My major ones would be crappy backgrounds, with an even crappier theme song. Those are my major two.

At least they didnt have a Japanese studio make a sweet kick ass intro with art way better than the actual show(Like what happened with Savage Dragon season 2 on USA Network)

**Karpo_007** · 02-09-2003, 11:33 PM

Crappy backrounds?

They are just fine to me...

*R-iZZy* · 02-10-2003, 08:14 AM

CRAPPY BACKGROUND???

ur kidding, right? we've all been wanting a darker background along with the comical and gritty humor of the old series... IT'S PERFECT!!!

*heretic888* · 02-10-2003, 08:45 AM

The only major problem I have with the new show are the compromises what were done to Mike's character. I also think Raph's character is just a little over the top in the 'rage' area.

Other then that, the show is flawless, in my opinion.

**Kali** · 02-10-2003, 08:53 AM

I like the backgrounds. Yeah, they're simplistic and not too detailed, but I think that's good. It won't distract from the real action.

*Cascadia* · 02-10-2003, 09:40 AM

Everything is good with the new cartoon. In my opinion, this is the way it should be....darker and gritty.

**Karpo_007** · 02-10-2003, 10:22 AM

Yes, the style looks just right. And the way the turtles use the roofs... Just like in Mirage. And yes, Mike and Raphs personalities have been altered, but I don't have a problem with that. They work very good in the show.

Raphael · 02-10-2003, 10:30 AM

Raph is just awesome in the new show... not that I'm biased or anything...

I'd change nothing. I love this show.

Altered from what? Mirage? Well Raph's is very accurate to his Mirage self. Mike is definetely a little bit more of a wiseass in the new series. So far though I think he's been pretty funny: "This room, mine! And where you're standing over here, also mine!" Donatello on the other hand has been "nerdified" a great deal since the original comics, but again I'm okay with that.

**Karpo_007** · 02-10-2003, 10:36 AM

Like heretic said, Raphs character is little exaggerated, but It work for the show. Now it seems that Raph is older than Mike, in Mirage it used to be other way around. But Like I said, it works for the show, and Im happy with it.

*Anarchistguy* · 02-10-2003, 01:10 PM

Have you noticed that New Cartoon Mike acts just like Old cartoon Raph?

*Eye of Sarnath* · 02-10-2003, 01:13 PM

None of the changes bother me. I wouldn't want a simple rehash of the old toon, I'm ready for something new (new to those of us who haven't read the comics).

And what is this obsession with Slash? He wasn't THAT great. Good, yes. Great, no.

*Anarchistguy* · 02-10-2003, 01:38 PM

It must be because he's an Evil turtle.

It is pretty much new for us comic fans too. It's based on the comics, not a direct adaption.

no

Mondo_Gecko · 02-10-2003, 03:56 PM

There's something special about Slash i think that's why everybody likes him. He's a mutant turtle just like the guys but he's evil. He wears a black bandana he's like the 5th turtle. The Evil Turtle.
