Other Movies/Shows that Remind You of TMNT?

*Spike Spiegel* · 04-23-2009, 03:48 PM

I'll start with "Rush Hour"...I think of TMNT for some bizarre reason whenever I see that movie.

A lot of shows with talking animals do:

Swat Kats
Street Sharks

Also, Battletoads. Was Battletoads inspired by TMNT?

They're marketing sure did make (unflattering) comparisons to TMNT.

And what about the Samurai Pizza Cats. That was one show I could never bring myself to watch.

Gold!

I would watch anything with ninja in the title when I was a kid cause of the turtles. 3 ninjas, surf ninjas

It was a reminder of course.

The funniest things was when I was young and Cow boys of moo mesa came on I loved it cause it reminded me of the turtles...Of course! When I was a little older I found out who created them LOL

Haha! "Dinosaurs"?

I loved that show, but didn't really appreciate the humor in it until I saw it again on the Disney Channel a couple of years ago.

There was a Christopher Reeve movie that had Morgan Freeman in it, I think it was called Street Smart, but the look and feel of that movie reminds me of the original Turtles movie.

X-men.

Or actually when I watch TMNT I see much resemblance to X-men, Beast and Donatello are very same, Cyclops and Leonardo have similarities, Wolverine and Raph have are also similar characters, though Wolverine is much more violent and Iceman and Michelangelo are both comedians of the team.

Others: Biker mice from Mars
Battle toads

johnnyblaze · 04-25-2009, 07:55 AM

Haha if I'm not mistaken the technology Jim Henson and his crew created for Ninja Turtles 1 and 2 inspired him to create the show Dinosaurs. I'm pretty sure I read that in that huge Jim Henson's workshop book that came out a while back.

For me, it's because both have "mutants". When I was a kid watching the X-Men for the first time, both shows having mutants made me wonder what a crossover would be like.

There's also the Street Sharks. A definite TMNT knockoff.

*Original TMNT Cartoon Fan* · 04-25-2009, 09:33 AM

Street Sharks
