That's trippy, I was just searching to see if they made one of these a few hours ago. Not their best in terms of presentation/voice, but they definitely hit a lot of the right points.

Expected funnier they didn't point out anything we don't already know.

Was hoping it would be a bit funnier, but had been waiting for this one to turn up. I mean how could they not?

Hilarious.

And yeah, completely true.

EDIT: Oh wait, except for the whole "it's a kid's movie" thing. Once again, kid's movies don't have to suck to be kid's movies.

That was great, but gotta agree with TrickorTreater, this "kids movie" mentality is stupid. Do people hate their kids that much that film's this bad are ok as they're made for kids? News flash - so is Disney, so is Pixar, so is Star Wars! Being a kids film is no excuse for being a bad film. If anything you've got more responsibility to get it right not an excuse to get it wrong/not care.

Oh and I'd happily watch the Ninja Rap on a loop for an hour and a half rather than the 2014 mess so Turtles definitely were "better in my day" (at least on the big screen)

I seen this, But they aren't all that amusing, Especially when they are poking fun at a property you loved, But they are just doing this for entertainment purposes anyways.

"That gets the spirit of the main characters right" -- isn't that kind of the most important thing to get right with this movie?

Yes, but it still needs to have a story and a plot that makes some sense.

What if their spirit was right but the entirety of the film featured them having relations with one another atop hot coals & broken glass?

That literally makes no sense.

That wouldn't be them getting the Turtles spirits right in the first place! We are talking about character portrayals.

And yet the Turtles barely even featured in their own bad movie.

Kinda sorta getting the Turtles right on the most basic level doesn't make up for the awfulness of the rest of it.

And I'm not talking about JUST on a filmmaking level. Important Ninja Turtle lore is completely erased in favor of some half-assed, poorly conceptualized and executed made-from-whole-cloth new backstory that makes Megan Fox the holy center of this movie's universe.

Even IDW, in all their origin changing, was able to keep the Saki/Yoshi dynamic.

Yoshi doesn't even exist in this universe. The director made that painfully clear.

And of course, as I mentioned previously, it's a poorly made MOVIE too. The video brought a lot of that to attention though.

I didn't think they got the spirit right anyway. Leo does nothing, Raph is closest to normal but never has a going off on his own because he's pissed at his brothers, Mikey is a creep and Don is way to over the top nerdy.

Not their best, but still entertaining as usual. Wanna watch the movie again now.
