Also fun fact: before she started work on this Judith Hoag was working on Cadillac Man with Robin Williams. And when she told him what she was doing next it turned out he was a big Ninja Turtles fan so he gave her some information about her character that she said turned out to be very helpful. Just one more way that wonderful man shaped our childhood.
So big, that his daughter, "Zelda" appeared on 2012 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (as Mona Lisa) and 2018 Rise Of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (as Karai).
If i remember correctly she also looked down on this role back then which ironically ended up being her most popular role by far..shes obviously embraced it since then
I didn't need more reasons to love Robin Williams, but I will never turn down another one. 🥲
19:31 I noticed he didn’t do Mikey and his weapon but Michelangelo got the nunchucks because he’s actually the most naturally gifted at being a ninja but he doesn’t really like violence and likes fun so doesn’t focus well. Nunchucks are really inefficient weapons but Mikey not only is gifted enough to use them effectively but it also helps him focus and have fun while doing so.
There’s actually a reason why each of the boys got a different weapon. Nunchaku require more dedication towards hand eye coordination and focus along with calculating where it’ll be before it arrives. Mikey is the wild aloof brother. That’s why splinter gave him a more complicated weapon to master.
I love the idea of the Foot Clan in this. It's not just a ninja group, it's a cult luring kids in with games and food and friends to train them as ninjas. Awesome, but also kind of terrifying.
That is something that is not really shown when it comes to other iterations of the shredder.
This version of him, adds reverence To the idea of being a ninja for this clan.
That the mask is worth more than anything money could buy. You really think about the things that he had asked of them. It’s not really that ridiculous that people would just listen and follow.
Steal this take that. It could very well have been things that they were already doing before they were taken in.
Go after a news reporter?
She’s reporting on them making the public aware they exist that’s dangerous for them so of course they would need to silence somehow.
There are these creatures that have been stopping us. All they needed was the order from shredder to go after them.
Critics try to say that everybody who works for the shredder are a little crazy because they don’t question going after a bunch of giant turtles.
But truthfully, once you get rid of the unusual of what they’re going after why they’re going after them makes sense for their organization .
And there’s another thing to think about.
Essentially, this is the story of two rival ninja clans clashing,
It isn’t some grand superhero story, shredder isn’t about to enact some planned to take over the world.
He’s the clan leader of us, New York City sect of ninjas that are just stealing anything that isn’t bolted down.
It’s kind of refreshing to have a surprisingly grounded plot.
@@Nazo-kagethat is actually a great analysis. I like this interpretation
true, It's the TMNT version of Pleasure Island in Pinocchio
All they need now is a white van.
@@2BeeAdorable Exactly what I was thinking.
When they were hiding out in the farmhouse, it was actually Mikey who yelled for Splinter on the roof, not Raph.
It was supposed to continue his arc about not wanting to even consider the idea that one day they will no longer have him around. When Donnie tried to talk about it, Mikey changed the subject acting like he didn't care.
But that moment on the roof of the house, and a deleted scene where he was training in the barn, was supposed to tell us that Mikey is the one struggling the most from Splinter's absence.
@@brucechmiel7964 And he is the Last Ronin, so that makes sense
In the original comic, it was Leo who got jumped, and Raph who looked over his brother due to their verbal spats prior to his coma.
Fun fact, tho the Ninja Turtles were huge during this time with cartoons and toys, no major movie companies would agree to making this movie. So this was actually an independent film and was the highest grossing independent film until it was beaten by The Blair Witch Project
Wow
Huge is a understatement it was Turtle mania worldwide 😆 ...New Cinema blew up in the 90s
Turtle 🐢 Power !!! & here are a few fun facts:
- All of the actors inside the turtle suits make cameos in the movie like Josh Pais (Raph which he also did the voice of) was a taxi passenger, Michelan Sisti (Mikey) plays the pizza delivery man, Leif Tilden (Donnie) & David Forman (Leo) both play Foot Clan Ninjas
- Judith Hoag didn’t like this role including the idea of the iconic yellow jumpsuit, but actually Robin Williams (a huge TMNT fan) helped her by telling her everything about April
- Jim Henson helped out with the turtle costume’s & puppets
So Mikey delivered the pizza to himself, and still wasn't willing to cut the man a break on the pizza being late? That's harsh.
This movie was so simply and comedically made, that it's just a fun classic to watch. Who else agrees?
Fun Fact: Splinter was played by Kevin Clash who also Voiced Elmo.
Really?
@@complex2live Yeah, seriously!
Look up Kevin Clash and check his filmography.

"You're HANDS Mr. Noodle, not your FOOT! Cowabanga!"
On the subject of non GPS pizza delivery: You had a clipboard/packet that had a map of the area your store delivered to, usually black and white with numbered sections marked off, for each of those sections you also had a smaller map that was blown up to display just that section. For example one order might be in Section 3, so you drive to the section three area, then use the section three map to locate the street, then drive to the street, then locate the house number. Most people in the day would have a porch light on or something to help you find the house, but it was recommended to purchase a spotlight lamp so you could shine it on the house to see the numbers from the street for safetly.
I was always shocked when the pizza guy managed to find my house back when I was a kid.
We lived in a literal marsh/swamp with no landmarks, street signs, or lamps. But the guy always found us.
I still don't know how he did it.
3:40 - The thing with the suits was that they kept trying to make them more and more similar to the cartoons. There were actually people who felt that the original suits from the first movie were "too scary".
4:22 - There's a Domino's near me that still has the big map of the area on the wall near the back door the delivery drivers use. By "big map" I mean 4-foot by 6-foot poster size.
There's a deleted scene where Shredder walks into that big meeting hall and sits down, has has the four guys who failed to mug April attack him, and fights off all of them without getting up. You can see one of the guys in the background holding his injured arm when Shredder gives the new gang member his Foot Clan mask.
HELL. YES. This movie had no business being this amazing, yet here we are. The best part is that it's mostly based on the OG Turtles from the 1984 comics.
It combined elements from the comic and cartoon..best turtles movie 34 yrs later
found the DvD rip of the movie at Goodwill when I was like 10-12 and watched it RELIGOUSLY. something about the vibe of it was so cool to me.
(At 16:05) surprisingly I actually like the idea that "Raphael" was the one jumped by the foot clan instead of "Leonardo", because this gives Raphael more character development to grow.
This movie is literally on peak along with the 80's tv show, 2012 and 2003
Every time I see a TMNT movie I wanna order pizza
Its pizza time! 🍕
Dude THANK YOU for bringing Idle Hands to my attention. I never heard of this movie and looked up the trailer and now I'm dying to see it, I would totally watch you guys react to that movie
All of the suit actors for the mutants have cameos out of costume. Mikey’s is the Domino’s guy, Donnie’s is the lead ninja who attacks April in the subway, Leo’s is standing behind Sam Rockwell when he’s talking to Casey Jones, Raph’s is the guy in the cab in the first Casey Jones scene and Splinter’s puppeteer and voice is the guy with the umbrella who walks over the sewer when Raph screams.
(At 7:45) I don't remember who played Raphael in 1990s, because I was born in 1990, but from what I read when Raphael took the trash can off his head, the actor who played him in that suit broke his nose.
It’s interesting separating Hamato Yoshi and Splinter in some things
Not just here but the 2003 tv series and Michael Bay films. These times Splinter started out as a rat and not a man
But this is the first I’ve seen Hamato and Splinter both together at the same time
I actually prefer Splinter and Yoshi being separate characters.
This is how it was in the original comics, it was the 90's cartoon that introduced the idea of them being the same, I believe both to simplify the backstory even more, but also because that way they remove the murder from the backstory as well, making it less violent.
tmnt 2003 cartoon goes so hard
Remember: Wise man once said, "Forgiveness is divine, but never pay full price for late pizza"
Ninja... Vanish...!
fave line of the movie for some reason. the time in the burning building as the foot try to get away.
I think my favorite 'fact' of this movie is that they use the actors that are in the suits in different roles. The Dominos Pizza man is Mikey, Raph was the passenger in the taxi he flips over, Leo's is one of the gang members, and Donny's is the person who slaps April.
I'm sure a lot of what I'll mention has been said.
The puppeteer of Elmo is Splinter.
There's very obvious ADR in this film that makes me believe this film was originally rated PG-13 and had to be edited so kids could see it. Tatsu clearly killed that Foot Soldier, but the coughing was dubbed in with someone saying he'll be alright.
From what I've read, the porch swing was intended to break, but the actor wasn't told beforehand.
That's one way to get a genuine reaction.
You know you guys would probably love the movie Batman vs the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Yes there is a movie with a Batman and Ninja Turtle crossover and it’s epic. Leaving this here as a recommendation.
PLEASE DO BATMAN VS TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES, PLEASE!
I got that movie when it came out, and I still rewatch it to this day lol
Are you guys on a TMNT movie spree? First Rise, now this!
If they are, they definitely have to check out the TMNT 2007 movie whenever they have a chance in the future. It's underrated in my opinion.
I've always felt like Splinter's line "All fathers care for their sons." can almost immediately lose its weight cuz, yeah there's a lotta folk out there that shouldn't be having kids, but I always interpreted his words as "You are only a father *if* you love your children."
Fun detail that some people miss, but when Casey and Donnie are working on the truck together at the farm, and they keep insulting each other...they are insulting each other alphabetically. Vocabulary lessons, NYC style 😂
Also, this soundtrack slaps hard.
I still have all three movies on the original VHS tapes and I'm never giving them away!
I haven't had fun with a movie like this since the last time I watched this movie
Facts
Came back to rewatch you guys have to react to the rest of the movies! Especially the CGI 2007 one!
Oh we going way way back! A classic!
Casey Jones is Elias Koteas since 2014 he has been on the tv show Chicago PD as Alvin "Al" Olinsky for 5 seasons and many movies/Tv shows
Oh dudes you guys gotta watch Monster Squad!
Group of kids take on Dracula and his monsters with a magic amulet. It’s ultra campy and so good 😂
Lol..kick him in the balls!!..Great Halloween classic! The costumes were awesome and still hold up imo. Dracula was cliche but overall good film..Imagine this and Goonies crossover back then..Epic!!
(At 7:15) they did the same thing on the anime series in 2003 and 2012. Raphael gets jumped by Casey Jones and loses to him because he loses his temper.
I never get tired of watching these movies, the third one included. I’m at the point where my memory ain’t what it used to be, but I can still quote quite a good amount of this movie. It’s why I probably can’t watch it with anyone, because I won’t be able to resist talking over almost every line .
fun fact: my mom worked for the Jim Henson company for a very long time back when we lived in los angeles...but anyway she worked on the second movie for this series, as well as many other Jim Henson properties, like Muppets, dark Krystal, labyrinth, etc ^-^
grew up watching it and love it
fun fact: this was one of the first acting roles for a very young sam rockwell. he was the guy showing the kids around the hideout and told the cops where the hideout was in the end. yep. this movie had a future oscar winner in it.
also, in various continuities, the turtles do have sex with females of other species: other mutants, aliens, dimensional beings and humans. yeah. they got it on with regular human women.
if you watch the 2012 TMNT series (highly recommended), they do an episode where Donnie becomes frustrated using just a bo staff and tried to tech it out, but it backfires on him, leading to the realization that his mathematical mind is what makes the staff so effective.
Mikey used nunchakus because they used sweeping motions, which complimented his breakdance-style capoeira, and Raph used sai because he could reverse them and use them as brass knuckles for his brawling style.
(At 19:50) That's only three two turtles. You didn't mention why Michelangelo has the nunchucks.
(At 26:26) It would've made more sense if he said, "I'm a friend of your sons (or your son, Raphael)"
I like how all the turtles were raised in New York but only Raphael is the one who has the accent.
Their colors match their personalities as well. You rend to see that in a lot of things. Certain colors represent certain characteristics. Blue is usually nice, red is hot headed and etc.
Also I learned something to actors from this movie return to the 2012 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, everyone doesn't like. Corey Feldman (Donatello) and Robbie Rist (Michelangelo).
Where's Teen Titans?
It should be coming out Saturday
I made a comment suggesting a movie you guys might like (it's The Crow, if you're curious; it's on Paramount), and I don't know if it got straight up deleted or not, but for some reason it's not showing up in the comments section even if I refresh it. TH-cam really needs to get maintenance done on the platform
the opening about the Twin Towers reminds me of last year during the NBA playoffs, ABC aired stock footage of New York before a Knicks/Heat game and it had the Twin Towers in the background... the Knicks were so infrequently in the playoffs that the networks refused to reshoot any timelapse footage
Jim Henson might have been proud of the suits but didn't like this movie cause he was one of those that thought it was too violent. Also , one of the creators of TMNT (Kevin Eastman) has said he prefers part 3 over part 2 but to each their own, I liked them all, still do actually . The first movie is a nice mix of the comic and the cartoon. Second one is more the cartoon while 3 is back to comics with some cartoon.
😂 splinter came on the roof with the straight 8 mile line. "He think he a shredder? His real names Clarence."
The swinging bench chain breaking @ 21:13 was, in fact, an accident. It was so perfectly timed that they would've been crazy not to keep it.
I love how in this movie Splinter is the one that comes up with the famous cowabunga catchphrase, then he laughs like an old man.
That was a great touch and how they saved it for the very end!
Love how Ralph hugs Splinter in the end while others celebrating.
Requiem for a Dream - Jared Leto, Jennifer Connelly, Marlon Wayans
Vanilla Sky - Tom Cruise, Penelope Cruz, Cameron Diaz
Eyes Wide Shut - Tom Cruise & Nicole Kidman
Oh my God dude...I remember Saturday mornings, sitting on the floor playing TMNT on Nintendo, in my TMNT pj's, eating TMNT cereal, out of my Leonardo bowl (with Trix color changing spoon). The marketing force was strong with this one. This story bears repeating: My brother and I went to see the original movie when it came out as kids (7 and 9?) Afterwards we were looking down the sewer drains to try and see them on a rainy night. 30 years later...he and I went to see the special anniversary theatrical release. It was absolutely amazing nostalgia. As far as your "Liberal Cities" go. This was filmed mostly in North Carolina
(At 12:45) Oh man you cut out the part where they come back crying, after losing their father.
Is there a community post incoming about this change of scenery? It actually caught me off guard, and I'm now noticing some recent videos on this channel adapt to this new setting. Glad to see you guys are getting more comfy.
Shout out to that Pizza Delivery Dude for being almost on time to a FAKE ADDRESS 😂😂😂
2:08 apparently Judith Hoag was real difficult to work with and was rude to the stunt crew so they had already planned to replace her almost immediately. 5:06 I use gps so if I want to go down a different road or stop someplace off the beaten path. Also lately Waze has added a ghostbusters theme where your car can be Ecto-1 and the voice is Ray Stantz that gives you tips and lets you know if your car is possessed. My daughter loves it when I use it.
When the actors I did like the best has to be Corey Feldman as Donatello.
I was born in 1979 in Queens New York, off Jamaica ave and 212 st. i was a child in the 80s.. we got robbed at knife point for my pizza, and another time we got robbed coming out of the chinese food spot 2 blocks away at knife point for $14 in change.. them cats had a knife to my throat.. my cousin STILL wants to find them dudes that did that us.
You guys. Thank you for reacting to this movie!! Off topic: I GOTTA know where you got that Ginormous Appa plush that's between you. My best friend will LOVE it
If there's any doubts about trapping a spear like that, I did it using my granddaughter's martial art belt, just to prove that point...
3:09 "i feel like there would be a more efficient way to do that" If you're referring to Raphael throwing the sai, a sai is actually a throwing weapon.
It's always funny to think that Uncle Phil from The Fresh Prince original voiced the Shredder in the first animated series.
So I really think yall should react to the 2003 TMNT show as it would be right up your alley. Lots of action and story especially through season 5. The last two seasons aren't as good but are still awesome. I don't know if it's been suggested or not but it would be awesome to see you guys watch it
19:58 the Turtle/Weapons combo was confirmed and mentioned in the comics.
I got this on BLu Ray a few Christmases ago. One of the best Christmas gifts I ever got.
I love this movie to death
Fun fact: Tatsu appeared as a boss in 2 of the TMNT games for the Sega Genesis (back when companies like Konami had to make separate licensed games for individual consoles due to the rivalry between Nintendo and Sega, i.e., Turtles in Time for the SNES got rearranged levels and some different enemies like Tatsu and became The Hyperstone Heist for the Genesis)
I don't necessarily think Donnie was boring, he was just really smart. He had the mind to do a whole lot with a little, hence the staff or whatever he used. He was also the tech, invention and gadget kid.😁
The Suits in this are so great, although I can't look at them again after seeing that one banned commercial
This movie despite its age is still amazing and while I love this movie, the story adaptation that was in the 2012 show is some how even better
This TMNT film hits home for me so much, a household favorite of mine from when I was a kid and still is to this day!
The gang member in the white no-sleeve shirt is a young Sam Rockwell
I love the nunchaku showdown between Mikey and that Foot Ninja. But the scene that will always hit me in the heart is when the Turtles are sitting around a campfire, and they get a spectral message from Master Splinter.
Fun fact about Master Splinter: He was puppeteered and voiced by the same man who originated Elmo on Sesame Street, Kevin Clash.
Casey was like 'I whoopsie a murder' lol
To me, this Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie from the 1990s IS THE BEST ONE!
Watched it when I was littel and I still love it to this day! It will always be the best one with the best ending rap song!
TURTLE POWER!
Am I in the minority in that I wanted a hangout like the non ninja teens hangout? Half skate park half game center, all no Fs given.
I've always had a theory that Mikey is definitely the most skilled of the group and that he only pretends to be dumb in order to get his opponents to underestimate him.
Fun fact 1: The whole 'getting ambushed and beaten by the foot and thrown through April's window' is actually Leo's thing. In the original Mirage comics it was Leo, and in the 2003 and 2012 series it was also Leo. I wonder why it was changed to Raph for this though.
Fun fact 2: Now I don't actually know if this one is true, but I heard that the shot with Raph screaming onto of the roof at the farmhouse was actually supposed to be Mikey. Mikey was supposed to go through this whole anger arc at the farm house, but it was cut and edited so it was Raph instead.
So if the bandanna on Raph, in the roof scene and punching bag scene, looks a little too orange, then that's because it was originally Mikey.
It makes more sense for it to be Raph..he's the hot head who likes doing things alone, like..makes him great target for foot. Leo being responsible would be someone who stays around to keep watch on others or take someone with him. Cause he knows it's better to stay together..But they're teenagers, so the fight between him n Raph makes sense and someone like Ralph could get under Leo's skin to make him say things he said..thus he feels the most guilt as failing as a leader and most important as a brother, when Ralph is hurt.
These movies still hold up. Love TMNT. Especially the ‘07 movie and the 2012 series.
Had to add another, BACK TO THE SEWER SLAPS
This is one of the greatest comic book movies of all time
Lets gooooo! My childhood !!! 😭😭😭😭
TMNT was my absolute favorite thing as a kid. i had all the toys, shoes, everything. and i knew every line from these first three movies. and every song and dance move from their Coming out of their Shells Tour, anyone remember that?
This is the first movie I saw in a theater as a kid
Dudes and dudettes, major league butt kicking is back in town!
as a New yorker every time is see the twin towers in movies I get nostalgic. I use to work near them and see them everyday.
A TH-cam channel called Gaijin Goombah has a video on some of the Shredder content cut from this movie that has roots in legitimate ninja practices. It was super cool. If I can find the OG video I’ll post the title in the replies.
This movie was my childhood and introduction to the turtles. I never knew it was being very faithful following the same beats to the comics. Not only that, but every single event in this movie has referenced itself in other renditions of the turtles in a way.
(I've also grown accustomed to the early 2000s TMNT cartoon)
What bothered me was that this was the one turtle movie apart from the other three films, that they used their weapons for fighting. Parents made complaints about it being 'too violent" so the 2nd and 3rd film toned it down with the use of weaponry
You guys should make tmnt 2003 a series
The first TMNT movie is timeless. They have to watch the sequel for the ninja rap.
I had to come to the comments as soon as I heard Ruff mention a possible Idle Hands reaction to state that I would totally watch the hell outta that.
you should definitely watch the 2003 tmnt series!! it kinda reminds me of avatar, so you might like it :)
27:35 is my favorite part of any TMNT property. The head going down into the shell indicates to the viewer that these aren’t just ninjas that happen to resemble turtles, these ARE turtles! They don’t do this sort of thing often enough, in my opinion.
21:14-21:15 That wasn't scripted, but they kept it anyway cause it was like universal karma on Casey
I love this movie! Can’t wait for second movie and I recommend the CGI 2007 TMNT MOVIE!
(At 24:20) What are those things made of, 50 lb of lead?
I always like to see if anyone recognizes Sam Rockwell is the Thug leader for the non-ninjas. You might know him from Galaxy Quest, The Green Mile, Charlie's Angels, Iron Man 2.
Yeah I did..also Michael Jai White cameod in part 2 when Keno and thugs being recruited.
@@greato80 it wasn't until years later that I realized that the actor for Keno was the little kid in 1985 Red Sonja staring Brigitte Nielsen and Arnold Schwarzenegger.
there is a female turtle named Venus in another live action tmnt show and in the same show they did a crossover with the power rangers
