If the movies came to back theaters...

Albrecht · 06-09-2004, 02:57 PM

I think that this would be a terrific idea, they have re-released them in stores, and the 1st movie is based on the comic as is the new cartoon so kids would think it was awesome. I know that I would go see it, even though I have the first two.

What do you guys think

Hyper Metal Sonic · 06-09-2004, 04:19 PM

I'd go see it in theatres...considering I was only like 5 or 6 when it played in theatres the first time.

*Eye of Sarnath* · 06-09-2004, 04:25 PM

I think the real question is... who here wouldn't want to see it?

hazlov2004 · 06-09-2004, 04:44 PM

ok at the time i dont know how old i was but at the time i had seen tmnt-1 and tmnt-2 and have all three of them

*raphael_is_cool* · 06-09-2004, 04:47 PM

They did re-release the first one in cinemas in the UK. But in only a few cinemas nationwide...none near enough to me damn them...

Sorry I can't share anything else

host_punktmy · 06-09-2004, 04:52 PM

hey that's a great idea. I'd love to see them on the big screen again.

*Raven* · 06-09-2004, 05:00 PM

that would be great, because the only movie i saw in theaters was the 3rd movie, so i would love to see the 1st movie in theaters.

Krangfan · 06-09-2004, 06:50 PM

That would be awesome!

I would definitley go see the first two, and maybe the third.

Jasta3xB · 06-09-2004, 07:44 PM

It would be tight if they played the first 2 together cuz the 3rd was kind of stale. I know they had a big enough budget to make it better. But Ide love to see the first 2 again in theatres.

MikesPizzaShack · 06-10-2004, 02:24 AM

i would go se eit. i only saw movie 2/3 in theaters. i was still a toddler in preshsool when movie 1 came out in theaters but i did get it on VHS the day it came out. my dad used to work at Toys R us when i was little so i got all TMNT stuff right off the shelves when it came out. and then i was an only child so i was spoiled hehe

Tigershard · 06-10-2004, 05:50 AM

Many non-TMNT fans I've talked to have fond memories of the first movie, and still enjoy watching it (I lent people my DVDs during school), but they always come back saying they don't remember the second and third movies being so stupid and silly. A re-release of the first movie could do pretty well, but I'm not sure if the other two movies will hold up. Hmm, how about an Imax release?

The movie would be fairly sucessfuly, but not as sucessfully because the turtles were more popular when it came out, though the new series is fairly popular and will probably be on for at least 2 or 3 more years, and it would not be as successfuly in the first time in theaters because now grown up fans will remember it, but some people who watch the new show may not have been born when it came out since it came out in 1990 and current teengers were born in the late 80s/early 90s, and it is on DVD.

But fans will familizarise it with some parts of the show: April's apartment blowing up in Shredder strikes back, returning to new york after recovering in a place out in the middle of nowhere( in the movie it was april's grandmother's barn place with no phone for miles, in the new toon it was casey's deceased grandmother's house that was run down), raph getting unconcios in the movie(leo was uncounsios in battle in shredder strikes back), foot in uniforms and not robots, casey crashing in, sirens and shredder telling the foot to disappear(just like in the movie sirens are heard and tatsu says ninja vanish), the foot ambushing the apartment, hiding out from the foot in the apartment, Don saying they will be out of here way(but that was in the 2nd movie), Splinter being the rat pet of yoshi and experiencing yoshi killed(splinter clawed shredder in the movie, but clawed hun in the new toon), shredder being able to beat the turtles down (something shredder wasn't as able to do in the new toon).

I think it would fit well with the movie being released with the new toon, but older fans may remember the movie too well. I own the movie even.

I'd be there opening day like i was in 1990

Forgot to say Fans will familiarize with RAph being the first turtle to meet Casey, and him stopping casey from hitting bad guys with the club, and the puckbrain and gakface names(they were used in meet casey jones), and April and casey not getting along at first, but loving each other in the end, but it will differ to them for the new toon because April is a reporter and not a lab assitant to baxter, fans will be able to compare raph's anger and loner and storming off problem with the new toon and movie and splinter telling his students the art of invisibility.

I just think 2005 would be a good time to rerelease it because it will be 15 ( a milestone number) years since the first release.

Albrecht · 06-10-2004, 08:59 AM

^^ Hey dude, me too!

06-10-2004, 11:13 PM

I would so watch it!
Ah, yes, the good ol' days.
It was quite a time what with the huge TMNT phenomina!

My favourites are part one and two. Part three was... ok.
It would have been nice if it continued from part two with Super Shredder!

^_^

Keep in mind that the movie was super succesful the first time it came around and they made it due to the popularity of the old toon and it was not a whole lot like the movie (except for news reporter april, and and dumbass pizza addictions) and it did fine, so it will be even better (hopefully

)

Lisardo · 06-14-2004, 09:58 PM

I know it'll never happen, but it'd be sooooooooo awesome to release those back in the theaters. Esp. since I never saw any of them in the theaters! At the time I guess I wasn't as big of a fan as I had become later on.

**Jo Dawn** · 06-15-2004, 12:17 AM

I'd so be there.

You know, they show older movies for kid's matinees around here. They should so show TMNT. I'd be there for both 1 and 2.

Okay... and 3...

-->> ..well ..

..i'd appreiciate it if the TMNT movies came to the front theaters as well..

..maybe some of the middle ones.. and a couple of the quarter of the way ones..

..and yeh..when i sit in a theater.. i like to sit towrd the middle of the front in the back.. it really helps when you're wanting to see a quarter of half the picture..
