I was exspecting some seller guy telling Mikey to pay the chips in alien language. Oh well. The chips would have a better taste than Fritoes.

Are you kidding me? I love Fritos so much, if I were Michaelangelo, I'd be putting them on my pizzas!

Like how I used the fritos comment?

since when ever i think of that seen with the chips i think of JarJar using his tougue on the merchant's food props.

Or as Mikey would say: Care for some non-salted space chips?

Great episode! The action part where the Turtles were fighting the Federation troops when they first arrived was amazing. Raph has got some serious moves.

"It's time to rage against the machine" -- Leonardo

I thought that was pretty funny. I wonder how many youngsters would pick up that reference?

The part where Mikey saw the version of the Turtles with Splinter in that dimension in the sewers was hilarious. All in all, this was a good episode for Mikey. He had quite a few funny moments in today's episode.

I can't wait until next week when we will see more of the Triceratons. The sneak peek of General Mozar was cool as heck.

About the change in animation...I noticed that the eyes were a little bigger, and that bothers me because their eyes might just keep growing and growing and soon they will have big stupid anime eyes...then their mouths will grow to open to gigantic sizes when they talk... then when they close their mouths it will be a small line.

ok that prolly wont happen but they shouldnt change how they look...they looked fine how they were

Whooo!! Season 2! I pressed "record" on my VCR this morning before heading to work and just got to watch it tonight.

The new animation style. Complains? I haven't decided how I feel about it yet, it's more angular (arrgh) and they look like they're smiling when they're supposed to be... well, not smiling. I didn't really mind the enlarged eyes. I really enjoyed the grin Raph gave Leo while piloting the tank near the end.

Other comments on the animation... I could really tell where computers were used to cut corners and probably costs too. Everything flowed too smoothly (like with the tank) indicating that it was the same object just dragged, dropped and rendered.

To make up for it though, I agree that the opening fight sequence kicked serious arse.

The rage against the machine comment made me cringe. -_-;

Fugitoid was cool. I too was reminded of C3PO, and then of R2D2 when he interfaced with the tank.

The people on another planet looking like Humans didn't bother me, but I think that's because I'm used to watching Stargate. And Star Trek, and Star Wars and all such lovely Sci-Fi shows that have humans on it that are from other planets. Speaking of Stargate, I enjoy how they expect Donatello to figure out all things electrical and "smart", including alien machinery and languages in about 30 seconds. He reminded me of Daniel. But I degress...

Over all it was good. Awaiting more next week of course...

*kicks self* Ok, last week, i forgot to set my VCR to non- daylight saving time, and ended up taping SonicX (not that that's a bad thing, but i didn't want Sonic, I wanted me Turtles) and so I thought they weren't gonna start the new season until January. So I never saw Search for Splinter part 2 and now my quest to get all the TMNT taped in order is kinda shot.....

Onto Fugitoid:

YAY!!! D'HOONIB! Prof. Honeycutt = cute!!

Leo: Well guys, fight or flight?
Raph: I vote Fight!
Mike: You always vote fight!
oo! new sig quote!

Even tho I didn'thave my contacts in, the ninja ratties were SSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CCUUUUUUUTTTTEEE!!!!

Gotta love the power-hungry megalo-maniac bent on world conquest..*coughDubyacough*

EEEKKK!! TRICERATON!! *duck and cover* Hey, wait a sec... he sounds like Sean Connery !?!

Hopefully over the summer I can figure out how to get everything intothe right order.... with any luck, i won't have to retape the last half to the casette...

the more that i think about it, the more this reminded me of star wars. the tanks were star wars ish, the guy at the market with the wierd eyes looked star wars ish, the fugitoid really reminded me of C-3PO/R2D2, and the whole thing about the federation and all these worlds at war etc.

also, when leo said it's time to rise up against the machine, that was so Matrix.

overall a good ep. never noticed the animation change the first time, but after i read about it here i noticed it.

For me, "hate" is an understatement

Yes, the Triceraton was awesome, but I don't recall him sounding like Sean Connery

There IS no animation change, other than what you normally get from show to show and animation crew to animation crew. Keep in mind that this new series has been churnng out these shows at a fantastic rate (according to Peter Laird they're already working on season 3)! Quite frankly I'm amazed they look as good as they do! Also, computer generated effects are actually MORE costly, and not a cost cutting measure.
