I don't understand why people record themselves on youtube. Unless you get insanely popular, nobody is going to waste their time watching 15 minutes of some guy ranting when instead you could briefly read their post on a forum in less than 2 minutes and get the same exact point across.

Because they hope to become insanely popular....and you can't if you don't try...and even then more often than not you still don't.

So... let me get this straight... the show just "isn't" Ninja Turtles because some of the cast are younger?
... Well, might as well complain about the IDW comic, because the same thing happened there.

I know I'll never be insanely popular... but whatever little attention I get is good. LOL I'm lucky at least SOME people 'waste their time watching me for 15 minutes' and take the time out to either agree or disagree.

Now that I think about it. In IDW aren't only Leo and Don teens? Mikey and Raph were still toddlers when Tang shen died. At best Raph might be 12 and Mikey 11 or 10 at the least.

Honestly dude, your rants would score a ka-zillion views. Easy.

This 100000%

Because of your spammy nature, I will literally never watch one of your videos. Ever.

No, they were most likely older than that. From the art, it looks like Mikey was around three, Raph maybe five or six. They'd probably be at least twelve and thirteen- I'm guessing there was a year or less between each of them in the past life. And given that Asians have a long tradition of large families and women having children frequently, I'd say there were maybe only a few months at most between each pregnancy. They do ACT a little younger than the others, but since they are all around the same age as turtles it might all just be a moot point anyway.

Or if you want to post a video voicing your opinions and reviews. Start a single thread in the fan works section titles "My TMNT Video Whatever" and post them there. Don't post them in an area of the forum that is meant for discussions.

I read the title and I already knew who created this thread. It's another universe, not leaving a comment, abandoning thread.

When TMNT initially exploded into popularity, you had two completely different versions of the story- the gritty Mirage comics and the comical cartoon series, both with wildly different casts, rules, and interpretations of the characters. Since then, every incarnation has been free to be it own universe. TMNT is incredibly malleable so long as the core essences of the characters remain intact, and establishing that early on makes much of the fan base accepting of such fluidity. I'm pretty sure that's one of many key reasons for the longevity of the franchise.
