Who watched the original 1990 movie in theaters? - Page 3

Nightwatcher · 08-14-2007, 09:19 PM

I think I did, but I don't remember if it was this one or a different one.

I'm positve I saw the third one in theaters and I know I watched one of the others. I'm pretty sure it was the first one though.

*Warhorse* · 08-14-2007, 09:24 PM

I saw the original in the theater. It was a great birthday present for me, since I'm born in March.

And I agree with Buslady. I was a fan of Raph in the old toon, but the movie pretty much cemented him as my favorite!

*Raph's Girl* · 08-15-2007, 03:14 AM

Seen all 4 in theatres. Thankfully my mom's a fan too (a major Mikey fan) so she took me to see the first 3. I was 10 when the first one came out and saw it as soon as it was available in Germany at the military theatres (which I think was in like June or July of that year).

It wasn't until I actually read the original comics years later that I realized that it was actually the OT that changed everything.

I was taken to the first one ~~so I would shut up~~ for my 9th birthday. I remember being so shocked that Casey Jones ACTUALLY took off his mask! ZOMG! Then he kissed April! I was like...THAT WOULD NEVER HAPPEN!

*Drtooth* · 08-15-2007, 10:28 AM

I was shocked there was a Casey Jones period.

I saw the first 2 and the last one in theaters. And all things considered, I'm disappointed I didn't see TMNT 3 in theaters. It was enjoyable, jut not in the same league as the first one.

TheAnimatedSeries · 08-17-2007, 01:06 PM

I saw the first one possibly on opening day, maybe a few weeks later, I cant remember because I had the flu anyway. I do remember thinking it was awesome, that two old ass comic book fans were next to us and I thought they were cool and weird for being there. I saw it again in the following weeks when I was conscious.

I saw SotO once and liked it, and TMNT III once and thought it was pretty dopestyle. This was when I was 7-9. When I watched them again years later, I found SotO to be insulting at best, vomit inducing at worst, while I discovered TMNT III to be the marvelous example of bold cinematic storytelling that it is. Truly, it is the greatest movie ever made.

Herr_Shredder · 08-18-2007, 02:24 AM

Sadly Much too young to have seen the first, a year behind me.

But I did see the other movies on tape, can't remember though

I CAN say I saw the 2K7 movie in theaters, with many screamy kids

As was I. I remember yelling, "YEAH!" to myself when he dropped from that tree. Quite an enjoyable surprise for me.

Lol, which is why you should go to the late showings (there will still be kids, but normally good kids.)

*Roseangelo* · 08-18-2007, 01:01 PM

During one screening we went to we ended up next to this kid who was listening to his iPod during the movie (loudly) and TALKING ON THE PHONE!

Serious desire to kick some ninja butt.

*ToTheNines* · 08-18-2007, 01:05 PM

Ugh, I seriously would have had to do something about that.

DTBlack · 08-18-2007, 02:18 PM

I've seen all four films in the theaters. The first was the opening weekend, second and fourth were opening day, and third I don't think was for a week or two later because it didn't look all that enticing.

Well maybe that's why people prefer DVD's now a days to the Theater

I once stood up and screamed at a row of teenagers behind me who were making a lot of noise. They didn't make another peep the rest of the film, and I got an applause from the rest of the audience. People generally try to avoid confrontation, but sometimes you just gotta have the balls to speak up.

*ToTheNines* · 08-19-2007, 11:22 AM

I avoid confrontation because you never know when you might yell at the wrong person (which I have done) and get your **** tossed.

Doesn't news like this make you feel ancient. Geeze, I'm not even thirty, and that kid's statement (I wasn't even born yet!) was a shock to the system!

*Katie* · 08-20-2007, 08:34 PM

heh.....him talking about his parents made me feel old. Imagine how old daddy dearest must have been at the time if he was sneaking into theaters

oh and...I did not see #1 in the theaters. I did see the other two though.
