I finally saw this puppy. I don't get CW (which is odd because it seems we're supposed to, but I know no one who gets this w/o satellite or cable) so I watched the director's cut on the 4Kids website. It went okay for the first few acts but by the end there were serious buffer issues and the vid kept skipping around after commercials. Anyway, it was fucking awesome. I doubt ppl who didn't watch the old turtles or knew it was based off of a gritty comic found it as funny. I wish it was out on DVD already.

I know Gwynn watched this. Anyone else?

I want to watch it...but I'm never up early enough on Sat to catch cartoons anymore. And I don't have a fast enough connection to watch it online so I have to wait till it comes out on DVD and rent it.

I keep forgetting.

Never even heard of it. When I wake up, I tend to watch the news or stuff.

I watched it when it first aired. 80's Leonardo's voice irritated me somewhat, but the rest were fine. The voice crew wasn't consistent throughout the original run, so it wasn't that jarring to me that some were different. It was nice to hear the old school VAs who reprised their roles, though.

The 80's show was silly, but not to the extent shown in this movie. When it went to CBS on Saturday mornings that it got progressively goofier, but they didn't stop and laugh at everything like a green, shelled Beavis and Butthead quaternity as they did here.

Although I felt they cast the 80's show in a slightly disfavorable light, I still loved the snot out of this show.

Yeah, I agree on all points, my fine rodentia. Was there ever a banana monster in the original show? Anybody recall?

It was a special made to commemorate the 25th anniv of the Turtles.

I don't watch tv that much anymore but if I wake up early enough and feel like watching tv, you know I'll be tuning in to watch my boy, Jerry Springer

...who is only slightly more ridiculous than the most ridiculous Turtles show

I think more so, actually.

Excuse me? Jerry Springer is AWESOME. Not only the show, him as a person too (as I had the luck to meet him last year, and I have a pic!). His show is pure win and now that is being recorded in CT I'm hoping I'll be able to go see it soon. Maybe I'll get some Jerry beads too

Derrick · « **Reply #10 on:** Jan 12, 2010, 08:57:01 AM »

They bus them all for free to CT, because they save so much more money filming there they can afford it.

Faye Valentine · « **Reply #11 on:** Jan 12, 2010, 11:57:05 AM »

No SHIT ARE YOU SERIOUS?!?!?! Do they pick you up from Manhattan or something?

Derrick · « **Reply #12 on:** Jan 12, 2010, 12:24:18 PM »

Yup. Jerry was on XM talking about it, the city of Greenwich (I think it was Greenwich) offered them basically everything for free. Smart, considering the amount of rednecks and niggas that would be flocking there for Jerry, Maury, and all the other awful shows. They love to spend every cent when they get it.

Wow, that's brilliant.

AWESOME. I'LL CHECK INTO IT.
Maury is there now too? HMMMMMMMMMMMMM

Derrick · « **Reply #15 on:** Jan 14, 2010, 08:14:48 AM »

And some of the other talkshows usually filmed in Manhattan.

Faye Valentine · « **Reply #16 on:** Jan 14, 2010, 04:00:51 PM »

Neither Maury nor Springer were filmed in Manhattan, I think they were filmed in Chicago. Which one are you talking about?

Fiero · « **Reply #17 on:** Jan 14, 2010, 04:54:25 PM »

I thought Maury was dead?

Maury moved to Stamford with Jerry. I don't know why I thought it was Greenwich.

Faye Valentine · « **Reply #19 on:** Jan 15, 2010, 05:19:27 PM »

Well so I was half right, Jerry was recorded in Chicago.
ps: fuck the steve wilkos show. wth, they really do give shows to ANYONE.

B E C K · « **Reply #20 on:** Jan 15, 2010, 09:10:11 PM »

I can't bring myself to see that. I've put it on there before and it's like he's retarded or something: You can't really laugh and it makes you feel awkward to watch.

Fiero · « **Reply #21 on:** Jan 15, 2010, 10:28:19 PM »

So is Maury dead or not?

Derrick · « **Reply #22 on:** Jan 16, 2010, 12:01:46 AM »

So long are there Paternity tests to anounce, he stall endure.

Faye Valentine · « **Reply #23 on:** Jan 16, 2010, 05:56:00 PM »

He's actually winning over Oprah on ratings

gwynn · « **Reply #24 on:** Jan 21, 2010, 12:47:31 AM »

I still haven't seen the Director's Cut, since the 4kids player kept messing up. I assume that is the version that will be coming out to DVD wheneverthehell they get around to making it.

B E C K · « **Reply #25 on:** Jan 21, 2010, 02:10:10 AM »

Yeah, that's the one I saw. It actually played fine for me at first but then it kept skipping whole segments and doing two commercials in a row instead, often spoiling the show in the process.

I can't stand his show. Nothing against him. It's the guest that disgust me. How is it that a dozen men can be tested for paternity and none of them are the father?!? How a woman could be with so many men in such a short time window is beyond my comprehension?

Derrick · « **Reply #27 on:** Jan 30, 2010, 03:00:50 PM »

Some women love cock. I don't know, it's great when she has like 4 men, and none turn out to be the father. The despair is so saddening, yet I never feel sad over it.

Rama · « **Reply #28 on:** Jan 30, 2010, 11:38:54 PM »

I think it's great. It's especially sweet after she has chewed him out about how the kid looks just like him and he knows it's his. Mmmmmmmmmm Human misery is so sweet.

You have to thank welfare for that.
