More Turtle news!
Posted by Gord Lacey
1/22/2004

We decided to follow-up with Lions Gate/Artisan regarding the news we brought you last week about TMNT coming to DVD.
We've confirmed that the first set will be released on April 20th, along with 4 unaired episodes. Pricing, disc-configuration and any special features will likely come when the official press release is sent out later this week or early next week.

I'm sure you can guess by my avatar, or by me constantly playing TMNT Tunes in #TFP Chat that I'm pretty excited to see this. Three months unil I'm in heaven.

gnort · 01-28-2004, 05:17 PM

NICE! I love TMNT! The comics, the cartoon, the movies...everything! Im so pumped now....that made my night!

Mr.Deflok · 01-28-2004, 07:57 PM

Woohoo! I loved the first two movies but the third one kinda bored me. What'd'you guys think of the new TMNT series? I didn't think it was as bad as people said it was, mind you I've only seen the first 5-6 episodes.

GakFace · 01-28-2004, 09:15 PM

I grew up to them... So I can't wait to buy them. Some people may look at them now and say "thats crap" Then again I can look to some people who downright love Dragonball Z with a passion and say "whatever" Personally I think they kicked ass, that is my opinion, but they still did. Shit look at my avatars for cryin' out loud.

Oh come'on, "Whoops! More Logs!" That was one of many classic lines in the third movie! but yeah I liked the first two much better. I own all three on VHS.. now that I've seen a bundle for all 3 DVD's I need to go out and buy that.

I'm sure I am only one of millions who used to pretend with their friends they were Ninja Turtles. That show rocked.

The new cartoons I think are okay, but I'd certainly choose the older ones to watch. It reminds me of how my mom said she'd rather play Atari than any newer system.

feelgood · 01-29-2004, 08:13 AM

Wow, I remember watching TMNT all the time when I was a child. Totally rocked! Cowabunga! (Whatever it was...)

merkerguitars · 01-29-2004, 02:50 PM

Imagine that Gak excited abou tmnt...actually it's pretty cool I grew up to them too...it's sure to spark alot of memories

numist · 01-29-2004, 08:00 PM

the difference between cartoons when we were kids and cartoons now is like chocolate and shit... they were far better back in the day. Much better drawn, plotted, and everything. Shows now have gotten lame.

I may have to get this dvd set... very nice. Thanks Gak for the link.

I totally know what you mean..Just one day I watch Saturday morning cartoon and I was thinking "Holy fuck how bad did this get???" I remember TNMT, Ghostbuster, etc etc...

Starfish · 01-30-2004, 08:45 AM

I'm sooooo gonna have to get those. I used to watch the TMNT ALL the time when I was a kid.. I loved them so much. Thanks for sharing your news! It is really appreciated by me especially

wrongfullyaccuzd · 01-30-2004, 12:04 PM

That's awesome, thanks for sharing the good word. I'll be all over that in April.

By the way, I like the avatar, Super Shredder was the best toy ever.

GakFace · 01-30-2004, 08:10 PM

that whole mace staff thing.. thats an odd weapon, but cool none the less, but I think I like my Krang better.. just REALLY annoying when someone takes him outta his android body.. tis a bitch to get him back in!

mystmarimatt · 01-30-2004, 09:19 PM

illesturban · 01-30-2004, 09:24 PM

Oh hell yeah TMNT and Ghostbuster..my favorite two shows..ha

n0b · 01-31-2004, 06:40 AM

I liked the first season of the show. Very gritty and full of action. I felt the show got very "kiddy" as it went on.

Mr.Deflok · 01-31-2004, 12:04 PM

The trouble with cartoons nowadays is that they try to splice in morals and messages which is great to a certain extent but when I watch Transformers Armada I don't want see my Autobot heroes ceasing to chase the Decepticons through the forest because they're afraid they might smash a tree down. And I sure as fuck don't want a whiny kid to cry about the forest dying.

Yeah especially the first episode.. They were so.. badass in it. I'll probably end up buying this just for nostalgia's sake

Oh yeah... i've been using this S/N for like 10 years. I wonder where I got it. hehehe

onodrim · 02-02-2004, 01:05 AM

SWEET! Oh man, my childhood Teenage Mutant Turtles addiction is slowly starting to resurface...

t3m3st · 02-03-2004, 10:02 PM

at recess we used to wear our backpacks under our coats and they would be our shells

GakFace · 02-04-2004, 06:41 PM

Damn.... I finally post news about it.. and I'm no longer alone... heh.. and you all love 'em.

OMG! WE DID THAT TOO!!!

Kostya · 02-05-2004, 01:47 AM

My god, I loved TMNT so much.

I remember my Mum got me a Donatello action figure and my brother got Leonardo, and we were both cut that we didn't get Michealangelo. Raphael was awesome too.

During my playtime for a long long time after that, Donatello beat the living shit out of GI Joes, Legomen, then had a fight with Voltron, but then they became friends and went on a rampage through the kitchen bashing in the heads of army men. Then I got a Scorpion doll from Mortal Kombat and Donatello's arm got ripped off by the dog.

I also recall spending some gigiantic sum of money, like at least 12 dollars, which was a lot when you're 8 playing the Ninja Turtles arcade game. Only Golden Axe or Double Dragon was better than that shit.

Bah, backpacks under the shirts, everyone did that. But did you take the head off your mop and stick rulers in the backpack and beat the hell out of cacti out the back of your house...

Ahhh good times...
