New TMNT trailer
Posted on January 22nd, 2007 2 commentsTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles – Trailer 2
I know I’m supposed to supply links and commentary, but I honestly don’t know what to say about this. They were making TMNT movies up to the mid-1990s, so this isn’t exactly like rediscovering some forgotten, beloved property. People still joke about TMNT lunchboxes and underoos. I think they’re just tired. I was a little interested in the first trailer because it seemed so edgy that I figured maybe they were ditching the kid’s stuff with all the pizza and “dude” slang and instead taking it back to the original concept of the comic books. But here’s trailer 2 and look: Pizza and Dude. Oh, and burping. Gotta have burping in any trailer if you want to appeal to kids.
Huh, I guess I was able to whistle up some commentary, even if it does depress me to bits.

With the exception of the Raph solo issue where he fights Casey Jones, I have to agree with the Spider. TMNT was always Daredevil, but with mutated turtles. They called the Hand “the foot” and Stick “Splinter” for goodness sakes.
The BW artwork was pretty gritty, but the narratives were always a little tongue in cheek.

What was the original concept of the comic books?
I mean, I have read the first three issues or so, but if you’re telling me that the trailers, including “pizza and dude slang” are far away from the original concept of the stuff I read… I truly am missing something.
