Mirage TMNT cartoon

RiseAbove873 · 05-13-2010, 02:21 PM

Do you guys think we'll ever get a cartoon that looks like the original Mirage universe? Like in Turtles Forever?

*Powder* · 05-13-2010, 02:23 PM

No. No. No.

*Spitfire* · 05-13-2010, 02:27 PM

No, if we did it would be short lived. The Maxx, Spawn, those series didn't last very long. Spawn never tied up it's own loose ends and The Maxx just randomly jumped to the end. There's no network that would air it left I don't think. People can say "Adult Swim" all they want but I doubt that. I also didn't like how they looked in TF. They would need to revamp the animation style.

Honestly that short animated version of the first issue was the closest we were ever going to get. It never happened though. We might get a movie like the comics but if we do it'll be a long way off.

This is of course not to even mention the whole Nick, geared towards children, public remembers it differently thing.

Outside of an animated DTV movie like DC does with their comic adaption movies, I'd say no.

this may have already been mentioned, but i would love to see a tmnt animated show similar to the clone wars. imagine the possibilities!

*Candy Kappa* · 05-13-2010, 02:48 PM

in a world that sees the turtles as fluffy, pizza-eating-crimefighters who use slapstick humor to defeat their enemies. no

*Samhain* · 05-13-2010, 03:16 PM

As much as I would love one, no. We wont.

*gobo* · 05-13-2010, 03:36 PM

I'm sure we'll see one soon enough... if only in our wildest dreams.

TuЯco · 05-13-2010, 07:34 PM

thatd be cool for like a day then itd die out.

Spacebabie · 05-13-2010, 11:34 PM

I wish. Maybe it might work on something like Adult Swim, but we would still be lucky to get 13 episodes. The 4kids version is proabably the closest we will get for now.

It wouldn't work on Adult Swim, besides an anime or two the only "adult" animation people give a chance is if its a comedy with teenage humor. sad but true.

Well look at the boondocks-

It can be drawn amazingly, full of violence, humor, borderline offensive material, & occasionally a lesson. To me, that formula sums up the turtle comics perfectly so I don't see why that wouldn't work as a tv show.

The guy who did Boondocks tried to do turtles didn't he? I seem to remember it not working out very well. I think Boondocks rides a lot on appealing to a certain "urban" demographic. The turtles doesn't have that and the day they actually start saying "Ninja Please" I stop watching forever.

*sdp* · 05-14-2010, 12:34 AM

Boondocks is a comedy series and nothing like Mirage TMNT.

*shuriken* · 05-14-2010, 05:09 PM

A deep throught provoking TMNT Cartoon that has all the violence, action and red bandana wearing like the Mirage TMNT? you have got to be joking. As amazing as that would be it'll never happen. Adult Swim is for the most part comedies and TMNT are known for the most part as kiddie-fare. Unless if someone high up is willing to take a chance on the green team it won't happen.

jaymq · 05-14-2010, 09:01 PM

An on-going cartoon? No, but would be interesting to have the occasional animated movie based on mirage turtles.

*Koi* · 05-14-2010, 09:03 PM

To me there should be enough artist talent within this fandom that the fans themselves could create it. But, eh. Oh well.

I was thinking of doing that , but its just too much work for one guy.
I would need great quality scans , voices, sound effects and actually go into the comic and draw extended body parts and/or backgrounds to make it work .
But like i said its time consuming and I dont have much time right now .
