Quote:
Saw this pic on Twitter, so you can tell that When Worlds Collide was meant to air before the Monster Arc. Spoiler:

Airing before the monster arc also makes sense in the context of the theme song which shows Newtralizer after Zombie Shredder, Tiger Claw and Kavaxas.
Haven't seen the episode yet, but can't wait. We're also getting a new tmnt short tomorrow |

I have to watch it again, But I think it was just a plan by Lord Dregg to follow Sal Commander and Mona Lisa (because they were going to earth to capture Newtralizer) to earth, so he can get his vengeance on the Turtles and invade earth.

Those were some really cool episodes! I liked it, was good to see so many old characters returning.
Only thing that irked me were Mikey's sudden electric powers, I was just sitting there like "What the hell?! " But oh well, at least they're gone again, so I guess it was kind of cool, he definetely had some awesome fighting scenes. And yay! Mona gets to stay on Earth, I have to admit that while I don't particularly ship any of the characters (I usually don't care about that all that much), if I had to choose, Raph and Mona are my favorite couple out of the bunch, they're really cute. And while we're on the the subject of couples, I was kind of confused by the first minutes. The others are acting like sickening sweethearts, Raph gets annoyed and even complains to Chompy how he "doesn't need love". I have the feeling I'm missing something here. Did... the other pairs become official or something? A little later when Raph and Mona reunite there's also this little weird scene with Karai and Leo, where Karai doesn't quite get what Raph likes about Mona and how Leo responds to that. Maybe I'm also reading too much into it? I don't know.... Last edited by Mukouno; 06-18-2017 at 06:09 AM. |

Well, that was a very disappointing amount of screentime from the Utrom Council. And April didn't even address the Irma look-alike, which is probably the worst part. My girl Queen barely even had two lines.
And yeah, there's a ton of half-@$$ing so far.

I thought it was a great episode, lots of action, and most important of all, more Mona Lisa, plus she gets to stay on Earth, and she will make a great addition to the Mighty Mutanimals.

As far as 1-hour specials go for TMNT, this Aliens VS Predator (with a hint of Cloverfield): TMNT Edition could have been so much greater. I put this better than S1's finale but not as good as S2 or S3's (but this isn't a finale so of course it isn't going to live up to that). You think that since they had an hour they'd explain better as to why Newtralizer was so violent instead of just one line by Bishop "lol you got brainwashed by the Kraang, man". Could have given Newt a good resolution but no, just explode in electricity. Could have had Newt actually kill Sal Commander and make death actually mean something again, but nope. How many times has this show given us a character with a badass design and amazing skills and then fail to actually flesh them out? I'm starting to think I'm too old for this show, because on top of all of that, Mikey coming back with electrical powers irritated me so much. It doesn't make an ounce of sense. At least Dregg was back, with more half-tailing explanations. Armaggon, nowhere to be found. Just great *sarcasm*. Truthfully, the only thing I liked about this episode was Newtralizer beating up/killing everyone. Good homages to Aliens and Predator, however, they fail to make up for the shoddy explanations and too light-hearted of an hour-long episode. 7/10.

Nevermind once again Redworld96 comes to the rescue. I can watch it I love Utrom Klatu and Utrom Nicto references to The Day The Earth Stood Still and Army of Darkness

This episodes was great. Yeah I didn't care much for Michaelangelo's electricity powers, but I just kinda rolled with it. Bishop was hilarious, great seeing the Utrom council again, and seeing Lord Dregg finally invade Earth and Newtralizer make his grand return are great.
Looks like they really are wrapping up the main villains of this show. Dregg and Newtralizer are likely dead, and we can assume so since we probably won't see them again. Nice to see this show will be getting some proper closure ??? Armaggon is just a bounty hunter, last we saw him fall into a pit in an alien world. If that was his last appearance, it's fine. Would have liked to see him again, but it's no big deal if he doesn't. |

That's the beauty of subtle sexual innuendos, you don't notice them. It's subliminal humor for us adults.
You will understand in due time. In the low rent community and colourfull trailer parks that kind of talk ("Just because I like you, it doesn't mean I'll go easy on you." etc) is the equivalent to stupid upper class phrases like "do you have protection" (whatever that is).
