Anyone Worried TMNT Will Fail? - Page 3

*heretic888* · 01-21-2003, 09:15 PM

ummmm..... what about x-men or spiderman or batman??

**Karpo_007** · 01-21-2003, 09:40 PM

Atleast Spider-man and Batman they cancelled...

cable04 · 01-22-2003, 03:13 PM

well... x-men isn't still on, so i'm guessing they cancelled it
and batman switched networks because it's owned by WB

[thanks for welcoming me, and...uh... can i keep the dodger blue color if i make the size normal?]

**Karpo_007** · 01-22-2003, 04:30 PM

It doesn't bother me... And I think that 4kids own the rights to the cartoon, So if it will become popular and Fox decides to cancell it, Maybe someone else will pic it up. But It is clear that Fox does some heavy advertaising on the New show, It can be considered a good sign. I guess they figured oyt that they need atleast one kid's' show not full of crap.

Well being a big Japanese Fantasy fan I realy like Ultraman Tiga (Although the original 1966 Ultraman is much better) However they completely screwed up the dubb, their line of reasoning must be something like this: "We're loosing the kids attention spans, dubb in a lame fart joke!"
and the hero: Diago's voice is totally off
Hopefully Fox Box will lighten up on this approach, especialy for the third season: Ultraman Gaia, which is all about the end of the world, in the last epp two Ultramen battle a horde of demons that blot out the sun and a big huge angel.

Anyway back to topic: I'm just glad that we're getting 26 new eppisodes of TMNT, if we get anymore: Great! But if not I won't be disappointed, and we got some awesome new action figures, so be happy!

cable04 · 01-24-2003, 04:12 PM

i don't think it'll switch networks, 4kids owns fox now

**Karpo_007** · 01-24-2003, 04:13 PM

4kids owns fox?

lhb412 · 01-24-2003, 07:00 PM

No, they just run the Fox Box.

**Karpo_007** · 01-24-2003, 07:01 PM

Oh... So then it is up to them if the show gets a second season. That gives us more hope!

MzTheInsomniac · 01-25-2003, 02:40 PM

4kids owns that timeslot, so they decide what goes on their

**Karpo_007** · 01-25-2003, 04:25 PM

And since the Toys are seling well even before cartoon is airing, and Fox can't mess things up, the future looks bright.

Tell me about it! the toys are flying off shelves! I see TMNT toys in places like Wal-Mart and TRU then return a day later and find that they've all sold out, (Even the shell cycles!) Luckily I got to TRU right when they got a new shipment in and finally got my Shredder figure!

~~Tokka-B~~ · 01-25-2003, 09:03 PM

Hey, who knows? Maybe the toys will be the cushion in case the new show isn't all that great, and they will be able to continue it or make it better...

Wingnut · 01-25-2003, 09:43 PM

if the new show doesen't fly the toys will keep the spirit alive,im mean they're flying off the shelves and the show has not even started yet.I mean think how high the demand will be once the show airs and all the three year olds see them and then they'll want them,it'll never end

i think they are really, really hoping to make this their 'main' show.

I was actually thinking about that too, yesterday when I was watching it thinking some of these shows are crap but the new TMNT show looks almost out of place on tha tline up, maybe they're just putting all their hope into one show, for it to do good?

*Eye of Sarnath* · 01-26-2003, 01:02 AM

Yeah, Fox Box is putting A LOT behind the new show... they want to make sure all the kids know about it, and they're doing a good job of it, too, I think.

Yay! Funky blue font. Me likes.

cable04 · 01-26-2003, 09:58 AM

i was watching FOX BOX during commercial breaks, and every time they would show something TMNT related
it was GREAT!

I saw those previews too. It seems like a lot of money is being spent to promote the new TMNT. If I was 10, and watching these previews, I would probably think that this was going to be a great cartoon, just from the preview... However, now, without any reference of the TMNT, I would think the the cartoon wasn't going to be that good. On the previews, they make it look too much like some kind of mystery show, like Scooby-Doo. I know that it won't be anything like that, because I was a turtles fan for quite a while now. I think that the cartoon will be really good, and I am very pleased that there is going to be a comback into the cartoons, just like the comics were revived.

My overall conclusion of the new TMNT cartoon is that it will be popular, because of these previews. kids will be attached to these previews, and will be sure to check out the new cartoon and be satisfied. ANd to prove that I am a big fan of the turtles, here's something that I did: I watched the FOX BOX all morning for hours last week to be sure not to miss the theme song premeire, and I also had to sit through shows that I couldn't bare.

**Karpo_007** · 01-26-2003, 04:24 PM

You really watched Foxbox? Damn. Well Im sure the new show will be fine. I have seen some clips of the animation, and it looks just great!

I didn't even know kids still watched Saturday morning cartoons. The last time I was up that early on a Saturday, all I was were infomercials.
