Yeah, but Leo wasn't just standing there. He was flipping around on the rooftops. And was very distracted in the lair.

I'm not saying the writers didn't do this for the effect, they certainly did, but it's not impossible to believe that Leo could miss his target. He may be a ninja, but ninja aren't perfect, they're still human. Even Leo's got "human" weaknesses, like guilt.

Even if Leo does have a good deal of skill and training, there's no way he could hit the bullseye every time, especially on a bad day.

I agree with you, with that point.

I can not wait for city at war part2 .in the words of raphael," I am sooo going to enjoy this".

*terran631* · 03-18-2004, 08:16 AM

Sorry I'm so late. But I only just saw the ep this morning? Ahem....
Anyone else noticing an interesting pattern as far as Leo's behavior? I mean, this is like the fourth time he's used REALLY bad judgement as far as his course of action. In Leo's defense I understand why he would feel guilty and obligated to help...BUT in all honesty what could he do? Take on all three factions by himself? OR sit them down over coffee and tell them how naughty they were being? Neither one would work out very well for him or for the city. He could try to protect the "innocents" from being caught in the crossfire but that's not what he did.
After the disastrous first attempt to take on the Shredder <after Splinter said not to>, and walking into a trap to almost get himself killed you would think the boy would learn by now to not take on more than he can handle. Guess not. I hope Splinter rips into him but I doubt he will. Although he did backhand the four of them that one time. I don't know. Guess poor Splinter will have to keep reminding himself.

Better hope Leo fairs better than what you did to him in our RP...

*Cascadia* · 03-18-2004, 02:26 PM

I will be missing parts 2 and 3 but my faithful VCR is set for the next 2 saturdays

*J Legault* · 03-18-2004, 07:19 PM

(Let's see what should I post?

Oh I got it!)

When I saw the scene with Mikey and his 3 toys on a map of NY. I thought he was trying to create his own game of "War". But I thought too soon, I'd be as questionable as Don.

It be funny if there were to be a TMNT Board game called "City at War" coming out with Ninja-Bobble Head:The Foot, The Duck

urple Dragons, & Monster Robot: the Mob.

Now to make a Nano-Operation game.

Nooo! Not Operation. I hated that game as a kid.

Heh, me too! And I just saw it in the store the other day... I was really tempted...

*Taloniss* · 03-19-2004, 06:15 PM

Just 13 & 1/4 hours til Part 2! Feel the excitement!

jestergoblin · 03-19-2004, 08:22 PM

*explodes with excitment*

Pher · 03-19-2004, 09:06 PM

Im definitly digging the way this story arc is going and does anyone else thinkl ralphs been doing a lot of growing up lately in the series?, seeing him in favor of not fighting, instead its leo who goes against splinters wish's, really changes the way i look at him.

Cant wait for part two

*Taloniss* · 03-20-2004, 07:02 AM

28 minutes, babeeeeeee. I can't wait. *tries to amuse himself til the show comes on*

Weee, just saw the preview, Karai vs. Leo, today!

Utrom · 03-20-2004, 07:59 AM

I really liked this episode!

Mikey: Captain America, eat your heart out!

(For some reason that cracked me up.)

And Casey and April are back! I can't wait for Part 3!

*Taloniss* · 03-20-2004, 08:00 AM

A foot soldier finally spoke!

The guy on the bus that was trapped sounded alot like one of the Turtles. I couldn't tell which one, it was either Leo or Mikey though. The robot also sounded like Nano when it was electrocuted.

Nice to see Raph buckling up. Gotta get that message out to the kids. Whenever you drive a bus at a large robot, wear your seatbelt.

Mikey was great today, as usual. "Captain America, eat your heart out" hitting the food in the head with the ladder, the attenae, hidding in the bedding, running to the shop and getting April in a tizzy, telling Casey to sit down because Leo/Raph argueing could take awhile (ain't it the truth?) it was all great. Mikey > All.

The acton was superb, from taking down the robot, to the dragons shooting up the street, to Karai's foot vs. TMNT & Friends. I think this was the first time the Turtles fought in the day. The lighting was really great on the rooftop battle.

Was that the first appearance of April's van? It looks just like the one from the comic, beside the colour scheme. The Turtles staying in the water tower was a nice idea, who would think to look for them there? (Besiede the foot, but they had advanced technology)

This episode was just, perfect. even better then last weeks. I can't wait til the conclusion!

rayfillet101 · 03-20-2004, 08:12 AM

I loved this episode. It had everything I wanted. It had foot, Mobsters, Purple Dragons, Stockman, Karai, and Casey and April! It even had the water tower! This episdoe was great cept for the conclusion to last weeks. "good thinking to hold up this handy beam donny." corny? yea.
