I had TMNT action figures. April was always getting it on with Shredder.

― marmotwolof, Saturday, 24 March 2007 22:39 (eighteen years ago)

I hear there is no Shredder in this. Could it be true?

― Gukbe, Sunday, 25 March 2007 00:23 (eighteen years ago)

Oh wait, when I reloaded, the original image Edward III posted showed up again. Sore-y.

Is Shredder in this?

The Shredder is pictured very briefly in a recap at the beginning of the movie, but does not appear in the story itself.

Director Kevin Munroe says:

"As for Shredder in TMNT, yeah, I saw a lot of people saying he'll be making a cameo. We have nods to him in the film, but there isn't a scene with him or anything. But again, I wouldn't say he's gone from the franchise..."

Producer Tom Gray (in the IGN interview) stated they had felt they had done Shredder to death by this point with comics, TV shows, and first two movies, so they wanted to take a break from him so they could use/introduce some other villians.

There is a hint that the Shredder may appear in a sequel, and Munroe has more to say on that point in an interview (http://www.firstshowing.net/2007/03/04/tmnt-sequel-planned-could-we-see-shredder/):

"Because we now have these sort of better Shredder stories of how to bring Shredder back. But now if it works out well, and Karai coming to New York, that's a setup for a really good volume in The Turtes in the comics as well, it could work out to a really cool sequel."

He is referring to the City at War arc from the Mirage comics, in which Karai temporarily takes on the mantle of the Shredder. So it is possible that if we see the Shredder in a sequel, it will be Karai and not Oroku Saki wearing the armor. This is supported by past statements by Peter Laird that he does not want Saki to return.

I was fairly disgusted not to realise that this was on! Looking forwards to it!

― kv_nol, Sunday, 25 March 2007 02:01 (eighteen years ago)

They keep showing TMNT III on HBO Family. The costumes look relly crap in that one. I wish they would show the first two.

― marmotwolof, Sunday, 25 March 2007 02:36 (eighteen years ago)

They should have a Cerebus cameo like the comics...

― Abbott, Sunday, 25 March 2007 06:08 (eighteen years ago)

Dude no Ms. Incredible had some ridiculass going on. So many ass shots in that movie! Also, her joints seemed to bend more realistically.

There was one funny line in TMNT 2

"Hey it's Raph!"
"A little too Raph"

― Hurting 2, Sunday, 25 March 2007 21:51 (eighteen years ago)

I was just about to start a thread called "TURTLES MOVIE BICHIZ" so thanks Edward, from all of ilx.

― nickalicious, Monday, 26 March 2007 00:42 (eighteen years ago)

Anyway this movie kicked so so much ass. If I could I would be posting as "Cowabunga Carl" right now.

― nickalicious, Monday, 26 March 2007 00:44 (eighteen years ago)

do it dude!

― Curt1s Stephens, Monday, 26 March 2007 00:46 (eighteen years ago)

nicka, did your kid like it?

― g®▲Ðұ, Monday, 26 March 2007 00:53 (eighteen years ago)

omg that throwdown thing kingfish linked to

― latebloomer, Monday, 26 March 2007 00:55 (eighteen years ago)

haha the boy freakin LOVED it, I've never seen him so edge-of-his-seat into a movie, never...on the way back to the car he slashed me up with his movie-theater-drink-size soda straw katanas.

― nickalicious, Monday, 26 March 2007 00:58 (eighteen years ago)

no wonder they heavily edited the originals in the UK.

― Gukbe, Monday, 26 March 2007 01:00 (eighteen years ago)

The lack of Shredder in this movie didn't hurt anything at all, and in fact I was glad to have a whole new set of villains & monsters.

― nickalicious, Monday, 26 March 2007 01:01 (eighteen years ago)

ZOMG that youtube link.

its like my 11 year old brain melding with my 17 year old brain.

― g®▲Ðұ, Monday, 26 March 2007 01:20 (eighteen years ago)

the 13 monsters (lightning bolt ref?) were pretty cool. and it was funny! my 5yo xy and 3yo xx both loved it.

the only part the 3yo thought was scary was when leo and raf were fighting. which is strange, seeing as how one of her favorite pastimes is opening a can of whupass on her big brother.

― Edward III, Monday, 26 March 2007 01:46 (eighteen years ago)

She was scared because she fears when the big brother will take revenge.

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 26 March 2007 02:07 (eighteen years ago)

Anyway, it beat the Spartans.

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 26 March 2007 02:08 (eighteen years ago)

I didn't mention this before but the Leo/Raph fight scene in the rain is absolutely the best CGI I have ever seen in my entire life.

― nickalicious, Monday, 26 March 2007 21:13 (eighteen years ago)

yeah, rain is hard to do, that scene was well done.

She was scared because she fears when the big brother will take revenge.

haha I doubt it. she is a fearless amoral monster with no conception of consequence. just like her dad. her mother took some chalk away from her today and she shrieked YOU HAVE RUINED MY ENTIRE LIFE. I'm like, great, she got that out of the way, now what's she going to say when she's 16?

― Edward III, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 01:07 (eighteen years ago)

omfg that youtube link

this is my new film-want

― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 01:23 (eighteen years ago)

My brother rapped along to ninja rap for a talent show, and did the dance and everything. This was after a film of him walking around the high school looking for "a better future" while the Perfect Strangers theme played in the background. At the end, the better future was performing ninja rap...

― Abbott, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 01:23 (eighteen years ago)

not that youtube link THIS ONE

― g®▲Ðұ, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 01:26 (eighteen years ago)

haha i've had "hey, it's raph!" "yeah, a little TOO raph!" running around the back of my mind all day long, for some reason.

anyone remember those godawful TMNT comics that archie comics did, where half the stories involved them being in dimension X fighting boring monsters or something?

― J.D., Tuesday, 27 March 2007 07:48 (eighteen years ago)

two years pass...

Hot topic is selling TMNT Snuggies

five months pass...

Can anyone tell me when the TMHT (as it was known) animated series first appeared on UK TV? I'm almost certain it was 1990, but most Brits I speak to associate it with the 80s. I know it was in the US a lot earlier, like 1987, but this is a matter of extreme importance.

― village idiot (dog latin), Monday, 21 June 2010 13:26 (fifteen years ago)

I'm guessing 89 or 90, around when I was starting secondary school. I remember being a bit too old for it but my younger brother loving it.

― rhythm fixated member (chap), Monday, 21 June 2010 13:28 (fifteen years ago)

very late 80's, if not 1990- i think you're right tho
