'Everything Wrong with...' TMNT (1990)

okay, so this guy is basically RIPPING off the folks at CinemaSins...BUT...

...he does make some good (and funny) points about Steve Barron's 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles'



- the funniest 'sins' to me are: 1) how terrible Raph's 'going out' disguise is, and how its very obviously him, and 2) the first two times a sword is actually used is to cut food,

whats funny is that, its so obvious that this guy is a blatant rip off, and people have been giving him so much s*** over it, but 1) he refuses to acknowledge whats hes doing 2) he refuses to stop.

its pathetic.

Raph's disguise is meant to be terribly obvious.

I didn't find it that amusing when he starts it off by counting product placement as fails. Some things he counts suggest no understanding of the plot or source material, others seem like nitpicks or opinions rather than fails, and as a Star Wars fan I don't tend to like people acting like everything is mimicking Star Wars when Star Wars itself is a string of literary archetypes and tropes.

I just didn't think this one was well done.

Right on. If he had been trolling then maybe it could have been a little funny... but for real though that guy is dumb and I felt insulted by his attempt to dupe us into not seeing through his blatant ripoff reviews.

To be honest, I think they will do one leading up to the new Movie release.

What a sad, sad man.

Although I always wondered how no one saw right through Raph's disguise.

I just took it as they are in NYC, and it's got some of the freakiest of people in the world.

I'm sure we'll get all 4 TMNT flicks before the release of the Bay movie.

Sexy is subjective. I for one, along with many others, find Judith Hoag to be very attractive.

But that's beside the point- April O'neil, contrary to casual belief, is not a sex object, nor was she created to be the series' eye candy. She's a regular girl who falls into some extraordinary stuff. Was she drawn to be pretty, well, yeah, but that doesn't mean she's supposed to be sexed up. Her purpose is to be the turtles' link to the human world, not their crush or yours.

Well thank goodness this newest movie will have Megan Fox then... Whom a department store mannequin could almost emote better than.


So is this guy who did this video known to do this for jerky reasons? I figured it was just in playful harmless poking and how it came across to me, but can't say I've seen anything else made by him or whatnot.
