You should have seen my little sisters trying to sell the idea of the Ninja Turtles way back in the 80's. Here I was, an alumni of watching things with transforming robots and giant, 30 story radioactive monsters that shoot flames from their mouths, and I listened to my sisters telling me about bipedal turtles and talking brains. And I'm like, "Oooooooooooooooooookay." Like I had room to speak though.

the 1980s cartoons had many "far from reality" plots....the TMNT idea was neat.

Yeah... that's the same thing as it was for me. My bro is usually the blame for many of my interests, thyus he got me hooked on TMNT too. After all, I realized I also liked watching giant robots shoot at each other, four guys in brown jumpsuits running after ghosts, and funny looking animorph critters trying to recite the alphabet in one long burp.

Its funny how such a ridiculous concept can work so well. But hey, aren't we all glad it did?

Aignatius · 06-26-2003, 04:54 PM

Hmm, yeah, until my five year old (at the time) insisted on watching the TMNT cartoons, which I watched with her to see if they were okay, I didn't watch cartoons.
I thought the TMNT were pretty lame... until I saw an interview on 60 minutes with Kevin and Peter, and then they explained the concept behind the toon, and Kevin showed pages from the early Mirage comics, I thought, Hey, I want to read those... so... there it began. ;p
