has anyone considered?

kev trashcan · 10-29-2009, 07:18 PM

now that a major corperation owns the turtles they are going away soon i think, sure when the new cartoon comes out it will probibly be arounf 6 years or so, but as soon as its ratings and viewers drop whats gonna happen to the franchise? i dont see a ren and stimpy 2 or a roccos modern life: back to the outback on nick. they will drop it fot the next dollar and we will never see it again, and after those 18 comics there going away too. this sucks.

I don't think the Nick series would bomb. Its airing on Nickelodeon which gets high ratings for lots of their shows, especially if its in a good timeslot.

We'll probably get around 7 seasons of the Nick show, then after that it'll take another break before they reboot it for the fourth time. TMNT is designed in a way to go through cycles each decade.

i really hope your right

Seven seasons is a ton. These days shows are lucky to go three seasons of 13 episodes each. I am simply amazed 4Kids TMNT went over 150 episodes.

you right, im just saying i dont want these to be lhe last versions, cuss i have a feeling they will be the worste.

No. Because there's a new movie and a new TV show coming down the pipe.

That doesn't sound like the end to me.

TMNT was nearly belly up anyway.

This is a chance to revive the franchise. If it doesn't work, they'll just die like they were going to a few months ago.

Arguably that would have been beneficial. Go on ice for a while, to come back properly some odd number of years later, for the first time ever.

Now that won't happen.

kev trashcan · 10-30-2009, 04:05 AM

im with andre on this all the way. and it sucks, i think there will and should be more serious fan animation on the internet in the coming years. maybe even fan movies. hell maybe alot of people should just write nick angry letters to do it right

Well, it won't happen in that manner, anyway. Time will ultimately tell, but I can't see a company paying $60 million for a property like the Turtles without exhausting every avenue to use that property and make money from it. If an attempt fails, that doesn't mean they'll just deep-six the entire franchise necessarily. It'd be pretty stupid business to not at least attempt to revamp the property to cash in on a different demographic.

It's been said before, but I hope that Nick is taking notes from how WB is handling Batman. They manage to make adult-oriented movies like "Batman Begins" and "The Dark Knight" at the same time as cartoons aimed at children, like "Batman: Brave and the Bold", appealing to a wide audience of very different demographics, while managing to keep everyone happy. If they play their cards right, the TMNT are more than capable of doing the same thing.

New blood moves into companies like Nick/Viacom all the time, so even if the worst-case scenario comes to pass, a few years later the franchise could be dusted off again and given a new direction.
