What do you think is the worst thing in TMNT history?

*Donatello19* · 06-18-2012, 08:12 PM

TMNT is one of the greatest things out there, but some of the stuff made has not been so good (cough we wish you a turtles christmas cough)
So anyway, what do YOU think is the worst thing that has come out of TMNT is? it can be anything! a show, a movie, a character, a voice actor, a piece of merchandise, anything! So tell me what you guys think!

The music stuff, Next Mutation...generally.

I haven't actually watched it, yet, but out of everything TMNT related that I'm aware of at the moment, I would have to say that the worst thing in it's history so far has been the Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation live-action series. Though the multitude of TMNT PSA's are a close second.

Though who knows, there might be something TMNT out there that I'm not yet aware of. I haven't been actively involved with anything ninja turtle related since the early 2000's, and even considering that, I wasn't aware of NT:TNM till last year...

Too depressing a topic.

Green Machine · 06-18-2012, 08:32 PM

Vanilla Ice?

*MikeandRaph87* · 06-18-2012, 08:36 PM

It all comes down to opinions. I will say the very fact that Venus exsisted edges out the decapitated turtles in Image.

I like how you start by saying that you haven't actually watched it, yet some how you know that is the worst thing in TMNT history. I think people from Utah are the worst people in the country even though I have never been there.... sounds real intelligent huh?

In my oppinion the worst thing to ever happen to the Ninja Turtles is the final season of the cartoon where they turn into big fat spiked messes.

The European Vacation episodes...

*CyberCubed* · 06-18-2012, 11:29 PM

Bob Fingerman's Archie TMNT issues, particularly the "May East" Saga.

I know those episodes really aren't very good, but when they showed up on the USA network out of no where, when I was certain I had seen every single episode there was, that was pretty awesome.

In reference to April as a drawing Peter told me once that two things bothered him the most during his tenure alone at the helm. One was Shredder as an utrom convict and the other was April revealed to being an inked drawing. The Chr'ell twist grew on him while the April drawing bit he disliked more and more as time went on. The latter so much so he likes to think of Robyn as the older sister to block out the idea that the older April was a child drawing to a childless couple.

Because people love to hop on the bandwagon, hate campaigns included.

What I like least may be portions of Mirages guest era, as well as that of the Archie series (specials & such).

liugeaux · 06-18-2012, 10:01 PM

The clear answer is the Coming Out of Their Shells Tour. Next Mutation was bad, but so was Power Rangers so it kinda was handcuffed by that. TMNT3 was actually ok and I loved the maimed Image Turtles, especially when it was written out of canon. Seeing something deviate so drastically in a series is fun and sometimes necessary. That's part of the reason I'm digging the new IDW comic so much.

*Roseangelo* · 06-18-2012, 10:04 PM

Volume 4 for me.

Wow, I always figured you liked it for a while but just got frustrated with all the plot threads that never seemed to go anywhere. Do you just hate it outright or think of it as a major lost opportunity? And do you think it started to go wrong at any specific issue?

Spoiler:

Well, I at least liked those Turtle costumes. They'd be the ultimate Halloween get-up. Although I still can't figure out why they mixed up Don and Mikey's body pieces. Also, FW voice cast was pretty cool in goofy live-action.

Darth Knuckles · 06-18-2012, 10:56 PM

For me it was the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation. And I actually really enjoyed the music for the Coming Out of Their Shells Tour and still do on a majority of the tracks.
