What was Shredder's relationship to his ninjas? Adoptive fatherhood?
>>217021750Still better than every movie that succeeded it.
>>217021849TMNT 1990 doesn’t get nearly enough credit for having comic/cartoon accurate costumes way before the MCU came along.
>>217021987>comic/cartoon accurate costumesUnlike Marvel, where every costume was replaced with a black bodysuit, with a few exceptions.Also, occasional jibes and hijinks which serve to contrast or highlight otherwise dark and sober themes. Unlike Marvel, where every serious moment is deflated with a quip.
>>217021777The Shredder uses them. He poisons their minds. He cares nothing for them or the people they hurt.
>>217021987>>217022103The movie is nothing like the comics.
>>217022434The original early comics were a parody of Frank Miller’s Daredevil run. The first movie borrows Raph getting severely injured directly from them.
>>217022507>parody of Frank Miller’s Daredevil runi.e. intellectual property theft
>>217021750This movie is Kino of the highest order
>>217022103Marvel owns your mind, bitch. Rent free.
>>217021987>>217022103Can't you retards talk about your love of something without mudslinging? No one asked you about capeshit.
>>217022507He's still right, it's more like the cartoon
>>217023065Well yeah. TMNT has been a kid friendly franchise far longer than it ever was a parody of gritty 80s/90s comics.
Family? You call this >>>/pol/ here and that >>>/r9k/ there family?
>>217021987TMNT 1990 doesn't get enough credit, period. Being the most successful Independent movie of all time (at that point) is one thing and it being a comic book superhero thing means it was harder to do, not easier. And it's 100% kino.
>>217023194What even is /r9k/ these days? Every main board now is just a mixture of /pol/ and /r9k/ with a hobby/interest tacked on.
>>217022623>>217022507Parody in the best way. Like taking a spice the original tries to pretend isn't there and making a whole cake out of it.
non-James Avery Shredder will never be Shredder
>>217023222Pretty much
>>217023065the movie is basically the first issue with some parts from other issues added in (April, the Ralph solo issue and the farm getaway)
>>217021750>>217021777The major theme of the TMNT movie is...>FATHERHOOD...so yes.
>>217021750I am here because you have a fucking indoor skate park, arcade cabinets, big screen tvs and are giving free ninja lessons. Why the fuck wouldnt i be there?
>>217024960
>>217021750I agree but I'm not a footfag, sorry sir shredder
>>217024960>>217026571If I was an evil mastermind, I'd start a radical amusement park with really dangerous attractions to bring in new recruits and weed out the weaklings.
>>217027235that kid chomping the cigar cool as hell
>>217027235>tfw no slutty teenage arcade gf
>>217021987for me, it's secret of the ooze > OG > 3haven't seen any outside of the original trilogy.
kino incoming:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRSIAGDV5is
actual kino alerthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOV6H4NcGEs
>>217021750the upcoming street fighter movie is giving me early 90s tmnt movie vibes
>>217021750Shredder was swimming in bussy.
>>217024772You're being obtuse. The movie was very obviously targeting fans of the show and most of those people didn't even know it was based on a comic book at the time
>>217021750Seeing shredders lair as an 80s kid made me want to hang out with the bad kids as a 90s teenager.
>>217027447>3>trilogy Blud thinks he's part of the team
>>217021750Did they ever explain why the Shredder was building a teen/preteen thug army to be fodder for his ninja army? Like what is he after?
>>217028200The first movie is more violent and serious in tone than you’d expect, which is what makes it interesting. The sequels are much more kid friendly.
>>217021777........I need more older women to coach younger women.Its uhhh very inspiring.
>>217027297This looks like something Homer would build in the backyard.
>>21702851080s electronics. I think he was robbing the cargo docks of expensive japenese imports, but they arent above petty comic book streetcrime. If you had a teenage ninja army you'd let them steal nintendos and boomboxes.
>>217021750What's with the bicycle helmet? This clown is supposed to be a bad guy?
>>217024960you left out drugs gambling and loose alternateens.
>>217028635I'd get my teenage ninjas to steal Laserdisc players and imported anime discs.
>>217028520>The first movie is more violent and serious in tone than you’d expectCalm down, it's rated PG.
>>217028720Okay, how does that change anything about my post?
>>217028760I don't get why you're trying to frame this as some argument that you need to win, it's all good. The movie was very clearly only made to capitalize off the success of the cartoon and ALL of the movies are kid-friendly. The only reason it follows the comic at all is because the cartoon barely has a plot and doesn't have an ending.Movies being darker in the first one then more lighthearted in the sequel(s) was quite common in that era. Examples: Terminator, Back to the Future
>>217028880Uh huh, and again that doesn’t refute what I said at all so what was the point of your reply?
>>217028702Talk to the bad dude with the red arm band about your future with the foot.
>>217028903>movie 1 is dark but the others are kid friendly>all the movies are kid friendly>b-but I still have a point thought!You're a retard and your thread sucks.
>>217028954No, I said the first movie is more serious in tone than young fans of the cartoon expected, which is accurate.
>>217021750I would Invite you over anons but all I have is frozen pizza
>>217029076Original April was so much hotter than the replacement.
>>217029076Judith Hoag in that first movie defined for me what a "babe" was amongst professionals women with a career She was my first absolute crush
Go ninja, go ninja, go ninja, go!
>>217029097She didn't even show off any of her bodyPure personality and all face God I miss when our culture had standards instead of porno brainwashed niggerisms
>>217029258Hell, this brief scene has more sex appeal than any Marvel moviehttps://youtu.be/NZHGp77yOC4?si=sPrD7dMeZo22kbSP
>>217028584No one cares.Stop masturbating, like, forever.
>>217023065lolno. try reading the comic again sometime, if you ever actually did. plotpoints are directly lifted from the comics.
>>217030162I read the comics and they said youre a jerk.
>>217030240thats why raph is my favorite.
>>217028702Anime import market was always tiny
>>217028520This
more like it bores me
>>217027235I was just thinking today that what this movie does so differently is admit that all the stuff you're told not to do as a kid genuinely is really cool, it's just that it's not worth throwing your life away for. Adults usually lie to kids about sex and drugs and alcohol and hope it's enough to keep them on the straight and narrow but what happens when those kids realize they're being lied to? Isn't it better to just be honest with them about how temptation works and why it's not worth falling for? I like how much TMNT trusts its young audience to be smart when it teaches them a lesson honestly instead of trying to trick them.>>217027447Just rewatched Ooze yesterday after seeing the original again about a year ago. Will be watching the third soon since I got my wife the 4K box set for Christmas. Still gonna have to put the first way at the top but the second was pretty fun. Only remembered the back half of the movie from when I was a kid. Haven't seen any outside of the trilogy either but maybe I'll work my way to them after.
>>217030293that movie made a lot or Raphael fans. For me its Mikey because you can make homemade nunchucks if you dont mind hitting yourself in the nuts.
>>217024960dont forget that blowjob queen with the bubble gumanal for a carton of kools
