if you could pick one episode of the 80's toon for them to make a live action full lenth movie out of, wich would it be?

Tuxedo Moroboshi · 11-06-2009, 05:35 AM

With all due respect to the 1987 cartoon... none of them. I really don't think any episode of that show would translate well to live-action.

Return of the Shredder. Less science fiction, and more martial arts action.

*Scandia* · 11-06-2009, 06:59 AM

The Legend of Koji.

It shows the origin of the Foot Clan and thus would be a VERY good storyline for the theatre.

*Icebot* · 11-06-2009, 07:42 AM

Divide and Conquer

*gobo* · 11-06-2009, 08:55 AM

My pick: "USAGI YOJIMBO". It's likely we'll never see another TMNT/Usagi crossover unless it's in Mirage.

*Coola Yagami* · 11-06-2009, 09:00 AM

Somehow adapting the first 5 episodes into a live-action movie.

I remember when word first came out about a live-action TMNT movie way back in the 90's, my friend and I thought they were gonna bring the the first 5 eps into live-action and kept wondering how the heck they were gonna do the special effects for Krang.

*Jephael* · 11-06-2009, 06:04 PM

And borrow the Stockholm Globe Arena to use as the Technodrome http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fi...n_aug_1988.jpg

That would be hilarous.

Hordak · 11-07-2009, 01:43 PM

Heroes in a Half-shell movie or Leatherhead Terror of the Swamps!

*Powder* · 11-07-2009, 05:16 PM

Either the legend of koji, or The rogues gallery one. Orgin vs. a mutant fest bwahaha.

This.

Most episodes were full of science fiction.

**Shredder** · 11-08-2009, 11:34 PM

I prefer animated TMNT to live action and this is more than one episode, but I think it would be cool to see the "Big" episodes (Big Rip Off, Big Break-In, Big Blow Out) made into a movie. Even if the rest wouldn't translate well into live action, the visual of a giant CG Technodrome rolling around above ground would be pretty cool.

*shuriken* · 11-10-2009, 03:26 PM

Planet of the Turtleoids. That would be a huge clusterf*ck, but I would like to see it.

DonatelloDomeHead31 · 11-11-2009, 05:03 PM

The Incredible Shrinking Turtles...who wouldn't want to see a close up of April looking at the turtles in Shredder's lair in live-action on the big screen...that would be cool.
