Oh yeah! It was handled in an indie film style...thats why it was so cool! Well the Jim Henson Company was not really involved cept for a few things here and there with TMNT 2. And then I dont think at all with TMNT 3.

If JHC wasn't involved at all, how were the Turtle costumes able to be used?

**Karpo_007** · 01-26-2003, 05:01 PM

Someone else made them.

*Jephael* · 01-26-2003, 05:03 PM

Jim Henson did help design the turtle costumes for the first film, as did his company for the second film when he died.

**Karpo_007** · 01-26-2003, 05:18 PM

I tought they were made by diffrent company... If the company was same, why are the second movie ones so inferior?

*Jephael* · 01-26-2003, 05:26 PM

I thought the second movie costumes were perfect, even if the plot sucked.

**Karpo_007** · 01-26-2003, 05:28 PM

The suits looked ugly, with all those spots in them... I didn't like them at all.

*Jephael* · 01-26-2003, 05:39 PM

I barely noticed them in the second movie, they looked more like freckles. In the third movie though, it looked like they had liver spots.

**Karpo_007** · 01-26-2003, 05:45 PM

Yes they were much worse in 3.

Prowl · 01-26-2003, 11:23 PM

You can see technical differences between the first and second movie and the third one. Such as the lip movement in the first and second movie containing some good lip and eye movement, and the third one coming off as being very mechanical. The differences in the look were probably a choice for the sake of making the turtles less murky and more like their cartoon counterparts.

Yeah the Jim Henson Company in 1989 was very involved with the first TMNT, from the costumes to the animatronics to even the puppetry(KEvin clash, the performer behind Elmo and Clifford puppeteered Splinter)

Obviously JHC's presence was sorely missing from TMNT 2...though I think good writing was the main thing missing from TMNT 2(and even more so in TMNT 3) Bottom line, in my book TMNT 2 and 3 are a sheer abomination.
(both times I cam eout of the theatre beyond disappointed)

DEARGOD!!! I just watched turtles 1 and 3. The difference is sickening. Yes, I own Turtles three because I like the fighting (A little darker than 2, and the sound effects are a little deeper), but I could not stomach the animatronics in their mouths, not to mention Leo looking like a complete idot with his expressions. You can see, without question, the amount of attention Henson's shop put into the first movie.

I've read about this Hallmark project on the pages of volume 4 but I can't find anything on the net about it and how far it got. So, what happened to this project? Was it cancelled all of a sudden? Did some concept art or model came out?

Its an idea that fell through. It sounded horrible anyway, a live action made for TV movie?

You know, you could have started a new thread instead of replying to a nine-year old one.

I guess I should have waited one more year and come for the 10th anniversary celebration.

How far did the production of this show go? Did any concept art, model or plot filter out?
