Does anyone else really like Captain Ryan? - Page 2

Konchadunga · 02-02-2013, 03:14 AM

He's funny. I think Splinter is funnier, but then, I've seen every incarnation of TMNT and no incarnation of Star Trek. Compared to Splinter, Ryan's lack of ethics also bugs me at times; not in that it's not funny, but in that it's disconcerting that a supposed ethical hero venerates him. If they want to play Leo as a bit of an antihero, though, then it could work...I just don't think they will.

Edit: Today my brother actually came in while the show was in one of the Space Heroes segments, and so didn't know I was watching TMNT!

He is a funny character, but in small doses only. I wouldn't want Leo to have a full fledge adventure with him going into the tv or something lame like that.

Konchadunga · 02-02-2013, 03:25 AM

I remember when Teen Titans did an episode like that, I thought it really sucked. Cringe-worthy humor.

*BubblyShell22* · 02-02-2013, 07:50 AM

I freakin' love Captain Ryan. He's awesome, and I think Space Heroes is an entertaining show. I haven't watched any Star Trek as I'm not a Trekkie, but I do like Space Heroes and how funny it is. I definitely want to see more of it. And I like how these segments relate to the core of the episode itself like when Captain Ryan was in a forbidden relationship with that girl, it mirrored the foreshadowing of Leo and Karai. Brilliantly done.

*Lethal Lullaby* · 02-02-2013, 08:28 AM

Lol.

having Space heroes in this show is like almost watchin two shows at once. I really like Captain Ryan. I love his way of solving his problems. (Slapping ppl especially)

He's funny. Not the kid of the person you'd usually see in a children's show.

His antics are what make him funny.

If you're not the one getting slapped or dissintergrated.

His antics always leave me saying WTF?!

I don't hate him; just don't like him.

Shouldn't Leonardo prefer watching martial arts and samurai movies instead? Save the science fiction for Donatello, and let it inspire him to make inventions!

I feel like Donnie would criticize every little detail about the show XD

Just because he does martial arts doesn't mean that should be all what he watches and revoles around.

I can't help but wonder what Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory would say about Captain Ryan. Would he find the parody of his favorite sci-fi series humerous or insulting?

I could totally picture Donnie doing that!! And I know this was said, but I do adore how Leo gets so excited to watch the show and even has eps memorized. And Raph making fun of him for watching the show is a riot. I am a Trekkie, so I appreciate the parody. Captain Ryan is hilarious. I also loved when Raph quoted a Ryan line to Leo.

Vivi · 02-03-2013, 09:07 AM

He's okay as a parody, but the joke can only last so long if the character has no other *ahem* dimension.

Red-eyed Jaguar · 02-03-2013, 06:48 PM

Well, since I'm a Star Trek Fan myself, I do like him a lot. This Guy amuses me, everytime I see him.
Like in the last Episode, even so I felt somewhat sorry for him, I had to laugh.

NiNi · 02-03-2013, 09:40 PM

I actually like Captain Ryan. ...particularly when he's extremely smug. For some reason that just makes me laugh quite a bit. XD

There's a reason why he was never any-ones fave turtle.

He was my favorite in the 2003 series.
