Are They Still Gonna Say COWABUNGA!!!

Turtle X · 12-06-2002, 10:59 PM

I wonder if the Turtles are gonna still gonna say Cowabunga!! or Turtle Power!!! You know like thier old Catch Praises!! what do you think???

**Kali** · 12-07-2002, 04:06 AM

I don't know. I hope they at least to a couple hints or "tributes" to the old show. Like inside jokes or such. I could see a well placed Cowabunga, but not every five minutes, or even every episode.

"Turtle Power" and "Turtles fight with honor" and some of those lines just got on my nerves if they were used too often.

**Karpo_007** · 12-07-2002, 05:05 AM

There might be "Cowanbunga" in it, who knows. Probably not "Turtle Power". ANd in Mirage the Line goes "Turtles die with honor" but that might be too heavy for the kids.

*Jephael* · 12-07-2002, 05:27 AM

I can see the "Fight with honor!" line coming back, but the other ones might not be used. I'd like to see them use that clip they had in the CGI trailer when Michaelangelo started saying "Cowabun-" and Raph stopped him.

**Karpo_007** · 12-07-2002, 05:33 AM

Yeah that was a good one. I really like the cgi pilot. Too bad nothing came of it.

**Nturtle** · 12-07-2002, 08:51 AM

I certainly hopr they will say Cowabunga!! maybe not turtle power but turtles fight/die with honor would be cool

Raphael-sama · 12-07-2002, 09:06 AM

Considering they say Cowabunga in the intro itself (ok, the Fox Box intro, but it was THERE nonetheless), the line will probably show up. In moderation though, like the movies.

-Badabing.

Yeah, the CGI clip is exactly how they should handle the Turtles. Okay, so maybe not exactly but it was really good. Nice action and humor combo.

I don't really like CGI, it puts amazing artists like BigThew out of business...plus it is the real thing.

Cowabunga will probly be used every so often, but they will probably think of a new word or something, cause I don't think many people still say wierd phrases like gnarly nowadays. If they want it to fit the new show, they will invent a new catch phrase.

No, it doesn't. And I quote Chris Hart, "Computers can render, animate and do a host of wonderful things. But they cannot create from scratch. There is always a need for people who can draw freehand. That's where computer character models come from."

I hope to go into the business myself. Artists will never become obsolete.

I use "old slang" all the time. Along with using "Dude" to mean anything from "Hey you!" to "That was sweet!" to "That's just sick." I just hope the catch phrases are better than those in TNM.

what do u mean quotes from tnm?

**Kali** · 12-07-2002, 02:08 PM

"It's Green Time!" "Raph and Roll!" "Shellquake!"

As much as I love the show, lines like that made me cringe.

MzTheInsomniac · 12-07-2002, 02:10 PM

ick i see what you mean, those are horrible

Greed · 12-07-2002, 02:13 PM

NTTNM had the worst catch phrase ever thought up

**Kali** · 12-07-2002, 02:20 PM

But the guys costumes were great!

They had "mega-motification" in the CGI clip, which Don used to describe their new wheels. Didn't like that one.

Shellfox · 12-07-2002, 02:28 PM

Bada-Boom

I can see Turtle power showing up if done in the right way, maybe having them run on a tread mill to power a generater to power dons computer and one of then off handedly saying "great Turtle power" Ok bad example, but if done right I can see it some how worked in.

**Karpo_007** · 12-07-2002, 02:31 PM

Well they are not going to run around screaming "Turtle Power!" or "Go green machine!" Like they did in the old cartoon. It's going to be much more serious.
