On a side note, I just wanna comment on the Casey Jones deal.

Cause last week, we're all hyped up to see Casey in action...and so far, it seems like we're more attracted to the elevator than Casey (in fact, his name hasn't even come up except in the 2nd post or something)

I think the voice actor doing Casey's voice is great. But the end bit with Casey and Raph beating each other on the ground is a little...umm...strange. Love him and can't wait to see more of him though!

No, it doesn't bother me either, but I too was surprised.

As far as casey...my friend sent me and IM while we were watching it and goes, "damn he's hot this time around!" I was like... yeah but he's no RAPH!

I do like Casey this time though...less crazy...and it looks like he has a reason to be mad....not just for the sake of beating people up. ya know?

I found an answer to the elevator, just read the summary for episode 15, Notes From the Underground Part 3.

Three other points:
Casey was one bad dude. They got his character right. I also liked the backstory for Casey. It now sets up animosity between him and Hun.

I also liked the role of the Purple Dragons in this ep. They were mean and well organized. They are hardly the braindead push over villian fodder of most cartoons. I'm thankful for that as well.

I really want to praise everyone over at FoxBox, Dong Woo, and Mirage for this series. So far the writing has been absolutely terriffic and the serial storyline is a brilliant idea. It's like a moving comicbook.

I'm waiting for next week when it's Nanotech monster time!

Speaking of the Purple Dragons, we can now be sure the original dragon leader from ep. 1 is gone probably...(I'm thinking the new leader's that Dragonface dude whatnots)

And in Casey's flashback, am I the only one thinking the big mean dude with a bandanna is Hun...he does have the dragon tattoo on his left arm. It'll be interesting to see how Casey will react once / if he sees Hun's face in later ep.

It was Hun, no doubt about it. I wonder if that other Dragon leader in ep 1 wasn't really the leader though, and if this new guy is. Actually, niether of them should bem Hun is the leader of the Dragons, or at least he's supposed to be.

I need to watch it a second time, but it was a very good episode. This is just one damn well written and animated cartoon. Just awesome stuff.

I think the official site said Hun's not in the Purple Dragons anymore but rather in charge of the Foots...here fresh off from that Sneak Peak @ the official site:

Hun is the commander of Shredder's Elite Ninja, the best of the Foot Ninja forces. Hun is a mountain of muscle with deadly Ninjitsu skills, and he's almost as feared as Shredder himself. The monumental man was taken in by Shredder when he was a child member of the Purple Dragon gang. After years of personal instruction from Saki, Hun is as formidable foe as the Turtles may face... save for Saki himself. Hun views Shredder as his father, and he would do anything that the villain requests.

The Purple Dragons are the toughest street gang in the Big Apple... but smart they ain't. They are a fierce, nasty bunch of not-too-clever, anti-social hoods. The one factor that keeps the Purple Dragons on top is that they're connected. Thanks to Hun's early involvement in their gang and his association with the Shredder, the Purple Dragons thrive as the Foot's lower level manpower, handling tasks like shakedowns, protection rackets and other small-scale criminal operations.

I missed the entire episode, I woke up and saw the credits, and then I went back to sleep. Did the new Casey talk like the old one, you know with that Clint Eastwood-esque voice?

It was very good...it was very similar to the microseries on Raphael. I would like to kill my videotape. It ran out of tape 5 minutes before the episode ended. Grrrrrr I have to retape it next week.

This episode was really great, I would like to know the mysteries behind that elevator chamber, But anyways, The chemistry for Raphael & Casey Jones worked really well on this episode, They both are equals in terms of the problems they deal with in there emotions, I cant wait for the next episode, Plus I would love to see April's reaction when she finally meets Casey, I'm sure in the comics they fallen in love at some point.

I liked it, but I'm not much of a fan of Casey's voice. It seems like the actor is trying too hard.
