Which foot apartment fight?

*Sage Ninja* · 04-08-2012, 12:09 PM

One of the most iconic battles the turtles have faced is the epic fight scene in April's apartment where the foot clan attack Leo/Raph and then jump the turtles in a fight for their lives in April's place.

This was done in the first live action movie where Raphael was the one who was attacked and thrown through a window where a battle ensued. ANd the 2k3 series did this battle as well but with Leo like it was supposed to be in the comics which resulted in a battle for their lives.

My question is, which epic battle of this iconic fight for the comics was the best iteration of this battle from the comics?

The Live action film for me.

I gotta go with the movie, but i like the Mirage comic one the best

*Kendamu* · 04-08-2012, 02:54 PM

The original comic version is the best, but I'd say the Live Action one was second.

To be honest, though, I don't remember much about the 2k3 version.

All I remember is "Nice Hats!" from the 4kids version. Steve Barron's for me please.

How can people not remember the 4kids version? It was one of the biggest episodes of Season 1.

Same with me.

*BubblyShell22* · 04-08-2012, 05:36 PM

Definitely the 2K3 battle, though I did enjoy the movie one battle as well.

The 2K3 battle for me.

I watched the series only once. That's how.

*Candy Kappa* · 04-08-2012, 06:15 PM

Comics all the way, but since it's a adaptation poll. I gotta go with the Live action one

And after 9 years you never had the urge to rewatch any of it?

I've too just had 1 see through of the 4KIDS series (Fred Wolf series too for that matter) can't say the series as a whole have much replay value when you've seen it

**Jester** · 04-08-2012, 07:07 PM

I've watched through it a few times...but I've watched the movie many MANY more.

I've rewatched the 4kids series 3 times, so that means after the first time I revisited it two more times for a complete rewatch.

It's certainly worth revisiting if you enjoyed it the first time.

I'll go with the first movie, if only to see that one Foot Soldier electrocuted on-screen. On the other hand, the 2003 version had good snark, courtesy of Mikey:

Shredder: Say farewell to each other, while you still can.

Mikey: Oh, yeah, Mr. Spike-y Pants? Well, you're the one who should be saying farewell to, uh, to yourself!

Raph: Oh, yeah, Mikey, that got him.

Decisions, decisions.

I like the well choreographed fight in the first movie. Its a good mix of fun and tense at the same time. 1. movie I 2. 2003 cartoon 3. Mirage's vol.1#10. Its ironic that I like them in the same order i do the different incarnations.

Ever since the Season Sets were canceled a few years ago.... nope.

If some equivalent comes along, I'll probably give it another go.

*Andrew NDB* · 04-08-2012, 08:31 PM

I thought the first movie apartment fight was pretty cool as a 9 year old but it didn't take me long after that to rewatch it and realize how dodgy it was. All the Turtles do like the same moves over and over again... block, block, and a kick... block, block, and a kick. With slapsticky stuff intermixed. I love the score in that scene, though, really gives it a great energy.

There's only one real apartment fight and it's not on the poll.

There have always been other ways to watch the show.
