Why did Turtles went from wrestler physique to malnourished Micronesian child physique?
>>153595588sounded funnier in my head
>>153595588They're meant to reflect the average man
>>153595600>They're meant to reflect the average manthen they should be fatter
>>153595605Although I'm not sure what is the point of making them average. I'm sure there was a ton of fat slobs in the 80s but people back then wanted their heroes to be above average.
Mutant Mayhem was absolute dogshit, worst iteration of the Turtles I've seen (haven't watched the Bay movies)
Just once I would like to see the Turtles depicted as the intensely grimacing, roid-raging furious creatures from the old game covers and magazine ads
>>153595588I think they were trying to focus on the 'teenage' part of their name. Gangly, awkward, still growing in to their bodies, that sort of thing.
>>153595954Donnie sounds like he's 10
>>153595954>I think they were trying to focus on the 'teenage' part of their name. Gangly, awkward, still growing in to their bodies, that sort of thing.I get it, but I still don't like it
>>153596012Oh sure, that's perfectly fine. Just because you understand why a decision was made, doesn't mean you agree with it. I prefer their 80's look, too. I'm just playing devil's advocate here.
>>153596002That's just because he hit the wrong button while 'doing machines'.
>>153595588Mikes was supposed to be 15 in that first pic.
giving a fucking ninja turtle braces is the cringest shit in designfor what reason?
>>153595588dude it's mikey, he's the youngest and weakest turtle.
>>153595588Faggots not understanding what a cartoon is should be shot.
A lot of the time they look too much like actual adults.
>>153597768Westoids are allergic to being genuinely cool. It's why everyone watches anime now.
>>153598194No
>>153595588Follow up question: Who decided Donatello is now a bespectacled dork?
>>153595954The other aspect is that they would look more like ninjas.Ninjas ought to be skinnier and sleeker.
While I don't always like the results I do appreciate the attempts to make them physically stand out from each other. I don't think anyone has done it and I imagine most people would hate it but I would love to see a version where Raph is the shortest.
>>153595588All I can say is thank god for TMNT: Saturday Morning Adventures. It’s the only version of the Ninja Turtles I find any enjoyment in anymore.
>>153598632Raph being shortest but also built like a tank would be a good way to take the character design. Like Wolverine.
Neutrinos episode when? I own this planet. You know WHAT?!>>153598783>>譚耀文I know that! I've known that since before Poole stole the code for this site from 2chan. Onslaught. Thus denying the fantastic four. [i]KRYSTAAAAAAAAA[/i]!
>>153598194Ninja turtles were never 'genuinely cool' and tonguebathing anime tells me you will be a child mentally for the rest of your short, impoverished life
153599453Just keep talking until they herd your entire country into a killzone microwaved from orbit. VICIOUSLY. KAY EUI KAYgo out with a roar and live forever
>>153599453Nope
>>153598278Stfu, tranny
153599576Point made. On your next public transpacific multiplanetary broadcast a classic episode of Cold Shower With Lilian Orchard. That's why John Bull grows old and fades into the sunset.
>>153598834>>153599534>>153599673What is this?
>>153595588Because Nickelodeon owns it now, and Nickelodeon doubles down on the "this is for little kids" shit in all of their properties. And modern executives believe kids won't watch anything unless they see themselves on screen. So you can't have superhero Turtles anymore, you get skinny salamander children who go to school and have relationship issues.
>>153597768Because teenagers have braces
>>153600095Who gave Michelangelo the braces?
>>153598632>Raph's true source of rage: The Napoleon Complex
>>153595588Women need to get out of the scene. You don't watch/read TMNT for the Teenage part, that's just an extra. You want cool, badass NINJA ACTION.
>>153600314The teenage part was never important anyway. It's just there because it was part of the parody aspect when the two creators were playing around with the concept when they created it. For all intents, the Ninja Turtles, at least up until about the time Nickelodeon bought it, were just funny muppet superhero ninjas that spouted one-liners or looked cool doing ninja stuff. That was what made the franchise appealing to kids in the first place.
>>153595588They are MUTANT TURTLES who happen to be Ninjas.
Its so they can fit better into licensed products by making a synergized design style over various media. 1987 can't be fit into Fornite, but 2024 can.
>>153600580I get what you’re saying, but it's a bad example to use here since Fortnite and epic games went out of their way to create new designs for the Turtles instead of using pre-existing ones, and they actually look pretty good
>>153595588>TEEENAGE Mutant Ninja TurtlesGee anon i don't know
>>153600548They're teenage ninjas who happen to be mutant turtles actually.
>>153601051Are you Toriyama?Teens don't have to look exactly like teens irl
>>153595588Are any of the IDW comics good?
>>153600116>Who gave Michelangelo the braces?Donnie, probably. And he probably macguiver'd them with some chicken-wire and shit. The real question is why do they have teeth? Turtles have beaks/bils.
>>153595588>malnourished Micronesian child physique?Ceos think children are all narcissist like them and won't watch lr by stuff that isnt just like them. It doesnt matter how many times kids go nuts for something that isnt about kids, a certain will want to take that thing and add kids to it, thinking they found a secret.This has been happening at least as long as Robin and Super Boy. Jonny quest and tintin were just kid adventurer versions of adult adventure stories kids were already reading. Ceos for whatever reason (Probably narcissism) push this shit every 3 or 4 years.Its the same reason they gender or race swap characters. They honestly dont think people will buy things if its not a copy of them in the show, movie, comic.
we need them to keep releasing new reboots until Rob Paulsen has voiced all 4 turtles.
This is a distraction from the real questionsVanilla Ice's Ninja Rap, yay or nay.
>>153603738Yay. Ice's finest work
>>153603384>The real question is why do they have teeth? ...because they're mutants. I thought that was clear
it became increasingly difficult to buy that these were hulking muscle monsters were teenagers
>>153595588>why did turtles went
>>153595588I mean, turtles aren't exactly the most muscular reptiles to be fair.
>>153595588Viacom is retarded and assumes highlight the teenage aspect of the turtles by making them stupider and all around more juvenile will some how equate to better success with kids. In reality it pisses off kids and oldfags alike. Everyone just wants to see the turtles beat the fuck out of the bad guys and kick ass. You see disney and sony doing similar things with Spiderman and Marvel though.
>>153595588I think they're trying to emphasize the "teenage" part of the name.
>>153595651Ever since the 2012 Nick series, all TMNT media has been unambiguously shit.
>>153598288The same Dickless asshole who decide to make April a fugly nigress.
>>153595588Like every other cartoon, they too are wokemaxxing.
>>153595844>Just once I would like to see the Turtles depicted as the intensely grimacing, roid-raging furious creatures from the old game covers and magazine adsdidn't the michael bay movies do just that? or were they just generic niggers in that one? I haven't seen it, the 1990s movies were already perfect (and iirc the highest rated comic book movies to this day).
>>153603738>Vanilla Ice's Ninja Rap, yay or nay.GO NINJA GO NINJA GO
>>153595588Retards at Nickelodeon though kids would relate better to actual teenage/nigger turtles, which makes sense for the Teenage part but they keep forgetting they're supposed to be Mutants. As bad/good as the Michael Bay movies are at least the get the fucking ugly mutant look right. Also stop making April black. It doesn't add anything to the character except people tuning out.
>>153600057>>153606303I dunno why it's become a "hot take" that Nickelodeon Turtles was always garbage. They don't make turtles because they love the characters. They make that crap because they're expecting a merchandising opportunity.
>>153600785The Smite designs were pretty solid too.
>>153606317Speaking of, since the comics made the Turtles nigs I don't care for them anymore.
>>153606868They focused WAY too hard on the teenage part. The only time you see them do stealth ninja shit in that retarded movie is when they're ROBBING A BODEGA.
>>153595588They still have the wrestler physique it's just that the wrestler is Adam Cole.
>>153606801These designs remind me of the Soul’s Winter TMNT comics.
>>153595588>Why did wentPeople called romanus they go the house???
>>153598194>Westoids are allergic to being genuinely coolThis is an understatement. It's like after the year 2014 anything vaguely masculine, badass or cool has been banned from ever being produced in American animation.
>>153598288
>>153595599That's okay. "Did went" also sounded more grammatically correct in your head than it is.
>>153598288Someone who wanted to give the TMNT more distinctive traits? I don't mind the change as newer iterations go for a more overtly comedic angle while still keeping the cool action we've come to know and love from this franchise
