Fugitoid Jones · 11-11-2003, 10:36 PM

Ever kinda compared the TMNT to Star Wars characters? Please share your thoughts.

Leonardo- Luke Skywalker
Raphael- Han Solo
Michelangelo- Jar Jar Binks
Donatello- Obi-Wan Kenobi
Splinter- Yoda
Shredder- Darth Vader
Casey Jones- Chewbacca
April O'Neal- Princess Leia
Hun- Boba Fett
the Garbageman- Jabba the Hutt
the Guardians- Jedi warriors
Foot Soldiers- Storm Troopers
Fugitoid- C3-PO
the Battle Wagon- the Millenium Falcon
Shredder's Skyscraper- the Death Star

Yeah I sometimes conpair Leo & Shredder with Luke and Vader, only Leo and Shredder aren't related.

I can't wait til Rez sees this...

Gosh, I have got to get out more. I'm starting to realize that I may be the only person left on the planet who has yet to see a "Star Wars" movie.

"Now that's what I call a cheapie!"

Sorry, but my thread completely OWNS this one

Fugitoid Jones · 11-12-2003, 09:16 AM

Sorry dude, I didn't know yours existed.

Whoever compared Michelangelo to Jar Jar Binks deserves a swift kick in the groin area.

Holy crap what did Mikey ever do to deserve that comparasion???

Fugitoid Jones · 11-12-2003, 11:43 AM

All right, I get the idea, comparing Mike to Jar Jar was a bad idea. I just figured because they both are goofy and think with their stomachs, that it was a good comparison, but after thinking about it, I guess not. Yeah, no body likes you, Jar Jar!

*heretic888* · 11-12-2003, 12:28 PM

Mike reminds me more of young Obiwan or possibly teen Annakin when he's not being psychotic.

**HorseTechie** · 11-12-2003, 12:58 PM

Have I ever thought about it... same thing as Rez. But my case was a few years ago, actually. I like your list too. It's more updated, but still similar to mine.

Oh no, it's alright...you see, mine was based on the ORIGINAL toon, whereas yours is comparing the NEW toon

So, it has every right to exist.

Raphaella · 11-12-2003, 03:26 PM

hehehe...

Shredder: *deep voice* Leo, I am you father
Leo: No - ! .... EH?!

I was watching the whole lot the other day, *moans* what the hell have they dun to Obi Wan in AOTC!? ... damn. *sigh* oh well, must get the old Ben Kenobi luk somehow.

~~Leo656~~ · 11-12-2003, 08:34 PM

Actually, I thought AotC Obi-Wan was bad-ass. For one, Ewn MacGregor is awesome beyond all reason, and two, he got to do a lot more than he did in Episode I. Though he did kill Darth Maul, which was pretty damn cool in itself.

I'unno, overall I love Ewan's Obi-Wan. Shame he got all crusty and old by Episode IV.

**Nturtle** · 11-12-2003, 08:40 PM

NOBODY deseves to compared to Jar jar, nobody....

I agree, Ewan does an excellent job as Obi Wan, the only good acting in the whole freckin' movie as a matter of fact. And old Obi Wan is awesome too!! Alec Guinness rocks!

Lisardo · 11-12-2003, 09:28 PM

GAWD, all the time do I compare TMNT to Star Wars. There are just many things that related or borrowed ideas taken from Stars into TMNT. Yeah the Leo/Skywalker thing definately fits. Tho Shredder is no Vader, despite the fact he wears a similar helmet. And def. no father figure.

I got that treatment on www.bond20.com, it's shut down now but when Iona Havelock RIP complained about me complaining about John Cleese as Q, the owner of the site Clint said I reminded him of Jar Jar (!).

Raphaella · 11-13-2003, 01:42 AM

Eek

Duh, of course Obi Wan was bad ass, but his appearance was somehwat ruined by his beard, he was so damn hot in the first one.

~~Leo656~~ · 11-13-2003, 01:48 AM

Facial hair rules, he looked way more serious and bad-ass with a beard. He looks too young without it.
