Critic= Leonardo since he's the one leading this review Nerd= Raphael because of his pure rage and rude attitude when reviewing Andre= Donatello due to his pure knowledge of Ninja Turtle lore And Jon (Epic voice guy)= Michelangelo because he just wants to party with the rest of the guys.
To be fair Leo in the 03 cartoon throughout the first 3 seasons was a decent leader sure he had self-esteem issues but he was still a decent leader, and throughout most of the first half of TMNT03:S4 he was the whiney/emo asshole we're familiar with but that was only due to his self-esteem being pretty much non-existent due to the combo of his greatest fear failing the team, and PTSD over the fact the only way they could beat Utrom-Shredder aka Ch'rell was nearly killing themselves via blowing the ship they were fighting Ch'rell on up with them still on it during S3's finale. As for 2012 Leo he was a decent if somewhat cocky leader throughout all of 2012 S1, and the first half of 2012 S2 however it's midway through 2012 S2 that we see Leo go into classic asshole jerk mode especially since there's a episode in the midway point of 2012 S2 where Leo goes into full borderline dictator mode and it forces Splinter to call Leo out on this and remind him that as leader Leo shouldn't be treating his siblings as slaves, but helping them grow heck when Leo tries to paint himself as being in the right by saying "Is it too much to ask for by getting a simple thank you, and for the guys to follow my exact orders without question." Splinter is able to counter Leo's argument by simply telling Leo "Yes."
@@derrickhaggard Wasn't the entire thing with that episode in 2012 that the other three weren't listening to him at all and not appreciating everything he did? Leo didn't want a thank you for not being followed unquestioningly, he wanted a thank you for all the pressure he's under. Splinter even had a talk with Raph about understanding all the stress Leo's under.
@@parycartoons6840 Actually Leo was at fault because he was literally acting like a borderline dictator while yes Raph, and the others were at fault for not understanding the pressure Leo was under that still didn't excuse Leo's behavior as Splinter told Leo "It doesn't matter if the burden is heavy all that matters is that you bear it." and then followed up by telling him that while yes Raph and the others need to be more compassionate, and understanding of the pressure he is under it still doesn't change the fact Leo as team leader has a responsibility to help the others grow and barking orders at them like a dictator, and complaining about the others has a negative effect on the others. Basically he told Leo yes Raph, and the others should be understanding about where he is coming from, but as leader he as a responsibility to help the others grow, and barking orders like a dictator, and whining/complaining about the others is in a sense trying to avoid bearing the heavy burden of leadership a heavy burden Leo himself asked to bear.
@@derrickhaggard True. Maybe I just didn't pick up on the in between the lines stuff of that conversation, I only watched the episode once. Not saying Leo was right, Leo was very much wrong, but at least in 2003 and 2012 there were reasons behind why Leo was acting the way he was which (in the case of 2012) the other's didn't help. It felt like actual family tension where everyone else was a little at fault as opposed to stuff like the movies where... Leo just says their opinions don't matter out of no where.
@@parycartoons6840 Exactly 1st half of 2003S4 Leo was dealing with pretty much both no self-esteem and PTSD over what was supposed to be the final battle with Ch'rell and it took a couple episodes before Raph, and the others to finally figure out Leo isn't in the right state of mind, and it took Leo a two-parter aka the training with the Ancient Master to get back in the right state of mind, and for the middle half of 2012 S2 Leo finally let the pressure get to him and while yes Splinter did have to give Raph, and the others a lecture on how they should be more understanding of the pressure Leo is going through, he also had to lecture Leo on how being a leader is about helping the others grow, not barking orders like a dictator, and that due to asking to bear the "heavy burden" of leadership, he is expected to bear that burden and the pressure it brings.
I think the idea of Casey Jones being a cop is actually pretty clever. In a better movie you could say he was throne off the force because of his violent nature and tendency to take the law into his own hands, which then led him to hate the justice system and become the Casey Jones we all know and love.
d good At least for the first few seasons, before the writers went downhill and produced seasons most of us like to consider an alternate universe and not really canon to the first seasons. But TMNT 2012 shouldn’t be forgotten or overshadowed because of the later seasons. It was really good.
Don't get me started. In the fourth season, one of the most extreme examples of the Turtles acting out of character and plot lines being rushed and underdeveloped is when the Earth is randomly destroyed by some aliens we've never heard of (not the Kraang) with only two episodes of buildup. So the Turtles go back in time with some robot called the Fugitoid-- from the comics-- and have to travel through space to stop the invasion before it starts. Then their future selves get back to the present, and now there are two versions of the Turtles, future and past. So how do the writers solve this plot hole? The past version of Fugitoid shows up with the spaceship-- again-- even though the world is safe now and it makes no sense for him to be there-- and tells the past Turtles to come with him, and in a scene that lasts _under a minute,_ they do. They squeal with excitement-- literally squeal-- say a hasty good-bye to Master Splinter and hug him, and go off with the Fugitoid, racing each other into the spaceship. Then the future Turtles hug Master Splinter again and say they're already back. I'm not even exaggerating. They don't know where they're going or when they'll be back or if they'll be back-- or anything about this robot that just randomly showed up in a spaceship-- but they just rush off in the last five minutes. It's so obvious that the writers didn't have any idea how they'd solve this plot-hole so they lazily half-assed it. It's so ridiculous and out of character and painful to watch. This is not the quality of writing from Seasons 1 or 2.
@@OfficerFriendly2006 everyone else what? Likes transformers movies? Because I can assure you a lot of people don't like Michael bay transformers movies
You guys really put your heart into this one. The three of you worked off each other perfectly for this review. I hope we get to see the trio team up again in the future :)
Why does everyone keeps talking about insects and the random Black scientist!!!!??? ....does....does he turn into some FLY-MAN in the cartoon? Is that why!?
The fact that there is a universe, within the DC multiverse, where Batman is taught to appreciate his team, Damien is taught how to be a kid, and Barbera is given a friend that she needs all thanks to the ninja turtles brings a tear to my eye. They finally got their happy ending and it's all thanks to Master Splinter's beloved children.
Cut! Right, now that was good, but I want you to try it again. This time try whining twice as much and add in some more exposition. Alright, now fluff up the jacket...good. Ready...and...action!
19:48 I know that the "They're monsters!" thing was kinda shoehorned in, but I can't deny that the look on Mikey's face and the crack in his voice broke my heart.
That could have been a really effective moment if they’d just totally omitted that dialogue. Just let the people’s horror and the turtles’ reactions speak for themselves.
0:42 it's funny you should say that since historically ninjas actually did use guns when they were invented. They weren't used often but ninjas definitely weren't above using them
Actual ninjas were more like hitmen or assassins that used whatever got the job done that looked inconspicuous enough. With that in mind, it makes sense to use guns if they could hide them well enough.
To be honest the Foot "Ninja" of the movies here are more accurate of ninja than the turtles in that they actually use technology. Shinnobi were very innovative and basically were like Batman if he were an assassin.
True! The samurai used guns a lot, so of course Shinobi (And the Wāko) would too. People seem to forget that the Japanese weren't fearful of other nations and their technology. They welcomed the Dutch with open arms, with the simple condition of "no trying to force us to convert to your weird Monotheistic religion. We're very happy with our own gods, thank you very much." So when the Dutch brought their guns and cannons, the Japanese easily accepted the western world's weapons, as they understood that they needed to change with the times. They only stagnated after Tokugawa's Shogunate Japan
I do see that, but I guess current depictions of ninjas don't want to throw out the intrigue of sneaky assailants who can eliminate their enemies without a sound. Stuff like guns are loud and modern, so it doesn't feel like what one thinks of when they hear ninja. Like why swashbuckling pirates can't be actual barbarians, and cowboys can't be unkempt hillbillies shoveling cow shit.
No they didn't, ninjas were around since the 15th century, where guns were completely useless for ninja jobs, they were inaccurate, slow firing and easy to use, all of which is useless for people that are supposed to be elite and silent, the use of guns for a long time was primarily peasants, while samurai and ninja would use them when it was practical, the samurai being elite warriors made the gun obsolete as for them the bow was a better weapon for a long time, while for ninjas unless they were setting off an explosion they were normally trying to get out of an area without needlessly revealing there postion and having a cumbersome weapon that doesn't actually help them in there job
Good points on Leo. He was an ass in this movie and the 2007 movie especially. in the 80s he wasn't that bad. He just seemed like an asshole because Raph and Mike would mess up a lot. Noticed that you didn't use the 2003 or 2012 versions of Leo as I think those are the best incarnations, especially the 2003 one.
Everyone is throwing out options for a decent Casey Jones, but I really just think it's about someone actually writing him well. Giving him the right attitude and motivations. And the right hair. I'll forever love Elias Koteas's Casey Jones from the first live action movie in the 90s, the perfect energy for Casey. I doubt we will ever get another live action Casey as good.
@@madelinemcmillan4020i get you, but in the OG comic they were literally married by volume 4, one of his main reasons for creation was to give April a love interest, it’s not shocking that that’s what it leaned into with him. and TBF his last iterations was Foot Recruit/Cassandra Jones, who is a great side character with no romantic subplot at all.
The appropriate response to seeing Krang for the first time..........."WHO ARE YOU!?!?!?! WHAT ARE YOU!?!?!?! WHERE THE HELL IS THIS?!?!?!?! WHAT!?!?!? WHAT!?!?!?!?
hes a Ninja king that rules a mass of too cool for school and wanna be thugs teen assholes whose number one enemy were 4 giant talking crimefighting ninja turtles and a big Rat.. i don't think anything surprised him anymore at all.
@@o.r2308 it's redundant, also that sentence grammatically implies he has problems with the issues themselves or those with them not that he struggles with anger himself
@@Doatello1991 Yea i grew up on the 1980's/90's series but even i have to admit that the 2003 version is the GOAT. Perfect combination of funny and bad ass.
Much like how the first movie was inspired by The Amazing Spider-Man (2012), a corporate businessman from a corporate company killed the main character's father and creates a antidote to mutate everyone (via reptiles) with another antidote that will cure everyone. Even the tower falls off the like the Oscorp tower at the end of that movie.
1) This is a MASTERPIECE (the Review I mean, not the movie) 2) I just met The Nostalgia Critic today and he was awesome 3) Tamara is WAY HOTTER than Megan Fox (imo).
NC sort of did. He called Amell a Chris O'Donnell (Robin's actor) lookalike and all three of them mocked Casey with the same whiny noises that NC did for Robin in the Batman and Robin review.
Watch it! I grew up with the 2003 series and it was literally the only good thing on the Fox Box/4Kids at the time. But, the last two seasons were the worst of the series. Other than that, it still holds up well.
Yeah, Shredder always goes out like a bitch; even in Turtles Forever where he's at his absolute best and most badass. When he's about to destroy the entire TMNT Multiverse because he'd rather cease to exist than allow the Turtles to exist anywhere, he's destroyed by 88' Bebop and Rocksteady plugging in an energy beam.
Also, I still don't know how anyone can sit through this movie. The turtles are just so freakin' ugly I can only bear to watch them for the time it takes for one of these clips, and even then I still don't like it :/
J Smith and the rest of us are talking about the person themselves, anyone can look like ANYONE with a simple change of clothes, you need to look at the PERSON, not the clothes
J Smith that's because you're a guy, probably white as hell too from how fast you're getting mad. but if a girl with the same skin tone were to dress up as her they'd look the same. point is, this guy's features look like the nutty professor
Honestly Stephen Amell probably would've been a good Casey Jones had the producers allowed him to act more like the Arrow and less like a whiny man child.
And cast Jane Levy as April O'Neil. She looks and acts just like her. Plus she was in another Nickelodeon right around when the 2012 aired. So wtf didn't they do it!?!
Interesting Fact Baxter Stockman was indeed a black man in the comic Why was he made white in the cartoon? BECAUSE - true fact - the studio was worried in 1989 they would be accused of being racist Really think about this - apart from gangsters or henchmen - until Serenity - How many really top bad guy black people were there in late 80s - all through 90s -early 2000s? Not many - in fact next to none by todays standards which is interesting, black people were denied villain roles in movies because of fears of backlash just like white people in certain roles are now -
Damn, that's a dumb reason. I mean, they gave Wesley Snipes a bad guy role to play in Demolition Man, and James Earl Jones voiced one of the best villains ever made, Darth Vader.
I am honestly sure that NC could make a good movie. He’s reviewed so many bad and good ones so if he did make a movie he would never make the same mistakes.
16:00 this change pissed me off so much. Humans did not evolve from pigs or rhinos. That is not how evolution works. The original cartoons origin was silly but this is just biblically idiotic.
Loudmouth Reviews Loudmouth Reviews year old, but I believe you mean “biologically” illiterate. I know it’s nit picky but it makes a difference in meaning. But yeah it is dumb.
it could glide, and stay true for some distance, but could not gain altitude. of all the stories of them returning with shredded tails, they usually still had some semblance of a rear portion, not a completly removed rear section.
@Ryan Struble: Exactly. There is a difference between a "shredded tail" and missing 1/3 of the aircraft. Even with a shredded tail you would struggle to keep it airborn, due to loss of aerodynamics and the drag it would cause. Losing 1/3 of the plane suddenly would most likely cause it to spin violently and then crash.
8:15 Yeah. What I really loved about the 2012 show is they gave the Shredder these burn scars that he hid under the helmet. And even the Mask-Helmet had a bd-ass backstory it being an ancient Foot-Clan Heirloom forged from the weapons of fallen warriors.
He acknowledged April's basic info in the current series in the 2014 movie's review. He "watched an episode" of the current series in the Transformers Age of Extinction review with E-Rod. He reviewed Turtles Forever as himself but I can guarantee he hasn't seen any of the other 4Kids series episodes to this day
The 2012 TMNT Series was more adult than the Michael Bay movies. And they had Rob Paulsen, Kevin Michael Richardson, and Greg Cipes in the show, arguably some of the best voice actors out there.
I can’t for the life of me understand how Stephen Amell comes across so whiny! He was EXACTLY WHAT THIS PART NEEDED in arrow, and he never once sounded like _that!!!!_

First time he was fought in the 2012 series.
Best handling right there!
THANK YOU!!
Oh yeah...
And people said that Endgame was the biggest crossover
If x men and fantastic 4 were there it would be bigger I know it’s due to liscensing stuff but my point still stands
@ANTHONY THOMAS Nah. It was Endgame
3 grown men freaking out about the ninja turtles
Not complaining
TTVDrewstein The 3 Guys with glasses
There are some adults who love Ninja Turtles.
In fact there are a lot of adults who like it.
That intro is actually really accurate, ninja actually used guns more than they used swords, the gun was a massive staple of the ninja arsenal
Aren't you thinking of samurai?
@@Thegreatercheese both used guns
No they didn't, ninjas were around since the 15th century, where guns were completely useless for ninja jobs, they were inaccurate, slow firing and easy to use, all of which is useless for people that are supposed to be elite and silent, the use of guns for a long time was primarily peasants, while samurai and ninja would use them when it was practical, the samurai being elite warriors made the gun obsolete as for them the bow was a better weapon for a long time, while for ninjas unless they were setting off an explosion they were normally trying to get out of an area without needlessly revealing there postion and having a cumbersome weapon that doesn't actually help them in there job

Wow. Cute way to demonstrate how you're a prick.
Good points on Leo. He was an ass in this movie and the 2007 movie especially. in the 80s he wasn't that bad. He just seemed like an asshole because Raph and Mike would mess up a lot. Noticed that you didn't use the 2003 or 2012 versions of Leo as I think those are the best incarnations, especially the 2003 one.
Everyone is throwing out options for a decent Casey Jones, but I really just think it's about someone actually writing him well. Giving him the right attitude and motivations. And the right hair.
I'll forever love Elias Koteas's Casey Jones from the first live action movie in the 90s, the perfect energy for Casey. I doubt we will ever get another live action Casey as good.
9:09
Hmmmmmm
I'm tired of him always showing up as April's love interest.
@@madelinemcmillan4020i get you, but in the OG comic they were literally married by volume 4, one of his main reasons for creation was to give April a love interest, it’s not shocking that that’s what it leaned into with him. and TBF his last iterations was Foot Recruit/Cassandra Jones, who is a great side character with no romantic subplot at all.
Now that AVGN reuploaded it, I realize that they made a reference to their fight
oh don't you talk about my boxes. I like boxes!!
Aadil Pathan Why do people like you exaggerate movie titles?
Shame that he changed the music from the original fight :/
"That would be like if Michael Myers was walking around without a mask"
That's basically Rob Zombie's Halloween 2.
This movie is better than the first one. But that's not saying much.
Donald Trump isn't Hillary Clinton. But that's not saying much.
MegaSoulhero I disagree.
Music Lovesyou why so serious!? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
it's not hard to rise a little above rock bottom.
yup, they acted too stupid, with they first fought Shredder in the first movie.
Why does Krang act like a pirate in this movie? Arrrr get off me ship!
You heard him,get off of his ship.
nopenopenope somuchnope YAR HAR FIDDILDY DEE, BEING AN ALIEN IS ALRIGHT WITH ME!!!!
Dr. Plague XD Well thanks.I now have milk all over my screen.
nopenopenope somuchnope DO WHAT YOU WANT CAUSE TURTLE IS FREE, YOU ARE A MONSTER!!!!
Well, he did make the turtles look like aliens, so why not make the alien look like a pirate?
The appropriate response to seeing Krang for the first time..........."WHO ARE YOU!?!?!?! WHAT ARE YOU!?!?!?! WHERE THE HELL IS THIS?!?!?!?! WHAT!?!?!? WHAT!?!?!?!?
hes a Ninja king that rules a mass of too cool for school and wanna be thugs teen assholes whose number one enemy were 4 giant talking crimefighting ninja turtles and a big Rat.. i don't think anything surprised him anymore at all.

"Take it from someone who has problems with anger management issues...."
Either get rid of "problems with" or "issues"
Why not both?
@@o.r2308 it's redundant, also that sentence grammatically implies he has problems with the issues themselves or those with them not that he struggles with anger himself
I read it as
Take it from someone who has problems with issues.
And that’s my life in a nutshell
you should've called Michael Bay The Franchise Shredder
Billy Esparza up high ✋🏻
Billy Esparza That pun's actually.....not that bad
Billy Esparza LOL Zack Snyder is Bay little brother
Billy Esparza he should have angry video game nerd wear a skid row wig.
Oooooooh
If you guys really want to have a version of the turtles that are funny, serious, and badass. Just watch Nickelodeon's 2012 TMNT series.
Want it on the live screen
At least that was good
It had too many goofy sound effects for me to enjoy it properly. Glad it was mostly well-received, though
@d good I preferred the 2003 series. Had all that and more fitting animation.
@@Doatello1991 Yea i grew up on the 1980's/90's series but even i have to admit that the 2003 version is the GOAT. Perfect combination of funny and bad ass.
I have an English assignment to do...but Nostalgia Critic is more important.
I should be doing homework and work on my script for a play that's due tomorrow BUT yeah Nostalgia Critic is way more important.

That's shredder?
He looks like Timothy DeLaGhetto with his Sun Tzu look from Epic Rap Battles!
WHY ARE YOU RIGHT?!
Correct

"What was the problem with getting the ooze on them and combining them with other animals?"
Animal cruelty complaints?
Use animal DNA samples I guess?
Ah, that makes sense.
or have them pet an animal in the zo. that explaination gave in the 2012 cgi series
It would have made more sense to say "Magical alien ooze kind of finds what animal you are deep down" than all that fudge about genetic ancestors.
Ian R. Nava Huber The 1987 series too.
It's better than the first movie. But that's all it's better than.
More or less.
Tactician! What are you doing?! Chrom says we march in 5 minutes!

i was gonna say baxter stockman looks like eddie murphy nutty professor

That's what I said xD. I was like " What the... What?! He clearly looks like Sherman Klump from the nutty professor"! XD
sweeshaman Glad I'm not the only one
sweeshaman i think its more if he started transforming back from buddy love and stopped 2% of the way
I kinda see it
This is the trinity right here
For the love of God do another collab if at all possible I beg you
I had no idea I needed these guys together like this. This was amazing. A Rifftrax series with these guys would be super.
I swear Megan Fox is in every freaking Michael Bay movie I've seen
Bay knows her attraction will draw in viewers. It's all about sex appeal.

This movie did a decent thing right.
Giving us a remastered new version of the classic theme.
14:59 what would have been better would be a clip of robin whining from the Batman and robin review
Throw in Anakin from the prequels, too.
S.S.R.C.P.B. Yeah that works too
The Star Wars prequels aren't bad, only Episode 1 is.
This movie is heavily inspired from avengers 2012, from the portal to casey being chased by Rocksteady looks like black widow being chased by Hulk!
Motherfuckers...
Hi Mr Stark!
Much like how the first movie was inspired by The Amazing Spider-Man (2012), a corporate businessman from a corporate company killed the main character's father and creates a antidote to mutate everyone (via reptiles) with another antidote that will cure everyone. Even the tower falls off the like the Oscorp tower at the end of that movie.
Nostalgia Critic thank you for showing me what Honest Trailer guy looks like I’ve been wondering for awhile.
he also appears in a smosh video
i wasnt ready for that reveal.
1) This is a MASTERPIECE (the Review I mean, not the movie)

Definitely earned that title Channel Awesome with this one. Seriously great job content like this is the reason network TV is dying
+john o Appreciate that!
Channel Awesome Yeah, it seems like you guys (the original Internet personalities) go unappreciated these days. Good to see you're still around.
Along Came Sonic Guess again, buckaroo
cartoon network & cw are doing fine
***** yeah TTG is the show you have to worry about
I love how they don't mention the 2003 show, even though it's the only one that got everything right.
Yeah, that's sad.
Ch'rell is the one true Shredder.
A S R FINALLY SOMEONE MENTIONS MY CHILDHOOD :3 I'm so happy
I love the 2003 show more than the 80's show and I grew up
with the 80's show.
2012 series is damn near perfect too. 2003 was badass
5:48 Imagine your watching a basketball game, you look up, and you see a bunch of giant turtles waving their arms and making bird noises 😂
The reason people would believe Will Arnet defeated the Shreder is this:
He's Batman.
Exactly
That is a good reason
Underrated comment
And he doesn't pay taxes
So that means Batman beat the Shredder in two universes
4:57 Because he's *LEGO BATMAN!*
Movies like these are the reason I don't go to the theaters often
Well your missing out on some great and subpar movies!
Tibasu You guys see doctor strange yet I liked it
Really? I dont go to the theaters because moviegoers are assholes.
Tibasu and the reason why people try to stay away from the turtles
kyotheman69 Not everything on Netflix
26:16 you guys might want to try Nickelodeon’s TMNT 2012 version
I would love more of this. The chemistry between you three worked so well that I just HAVE to see all of you together in a later episode!
casey jones in this movie reminds me on robin in batman and robin, i wonder how they didnt make a joke about that
Mersad Cehajic Well, they did call him a Chris O'Donnell lookalike, and he did Robin in those movies.
NC sort of did. He called Amell a Chris O'Donnell (Robin's actor) lookalike and all three of them mocked Casey with the same whiny noises that NC did for Robin in the Batman and Robin review.
Casey Jones reminds me of the guy from the Overwatch TV Show, that is currently on Season 5, that shoots people with arrows.
ShadeKill Gaming If I could like your comment more than once, I would.
Mersad Cehajic Casey is my second favorite character. (My first is Shredder from the 2003 cartoon) I'm so glad I never saw what they did to him.
Why does nobody remember the 2003 cartoon. Probably one of the best versions of the turtles to date.
Tony Kuehn They probably never watched it
The nerd did
I've heard praise that 4Kids did a decent job with it :P
That and the 2012 cartoon are literally my childhood. (Well, a chunk of it at least)
Watch it! I grew up with the 2003 series and it was literally the only good thing on the Fox Box/4Kids at the time. But, the last two seasons were the worst of the series. Other than that, it still holds up well.
Yeah, Shredder always goes out like a bitch; even in Turtles Forever where he's at his absolute best and most badass. When he's about to destroy the entire TMNT Multiverse because he'd rather cease to exist than allow the Turtles to exist anywhere, he's destroyed by 88' Bebop and Rocksteady plugging in an energy beam.
Bebop and Rocksteady saved the multiverse. Let that sink in.
Biff the BearKiller 2003 didn't go out like a bitch
EXCEPT for 2003's Return to New York. Sure, he doesn't actually DIE, but it was still awesome and badass
I always feel so sorry for the poor Awesome Voice guy in this :(
Also, I still don't know how anyone can sit through this movie. The turtles are just so freakin' ugly I can only bear to watch them for the time it takes for one of these clips, and even then I still don't like it :/
Mcyxof his sam elliot is scary good
Meh, their better looking here then in 2014. And i don't mind the look, that much.
Guys, please name all the movies that you remeber with a portal in the sky.
Avengers, Flash season 1 finale, Fan4stic, Suicide Squad, Man of Steel, Transformers Movies, Ghostbusters 2016, etc.
Ernie at least avengers did it somewhat good
Yeah
Mike Santillán MX TMNT 2
Tron legacy
I think this baxter stockman looks like the nutty professor...
***** yes
J Smith and the rest of us are talking about the person themselves, anyone can look like ANYONE with a simple change of clothes, you need to look at the PERSON, not the clothes
J Smith that's because you're a guy, probably white as hell too from how fast you're getting mad. but if a girl with the same skin tone were to dress up as her they'd look the same. point is, this guy's features look like the nutty professor
thundararious how does being white affect how fast one gets angry? I can think of a couple people who aren't white that get angry fast
The next episode is gonna have "The Klumps"
Honestly Stephen Amell probably would've been a good Casey Jones had the producers allowed him to act more like the Arrow and less like a whiny man child.
And cast Jane Levy as April O'Neil. She looks and acts just like her. Plus she was in another Nickelodeon right around when the 2012 aired. So wtf didn't they do it!?!
> less like a whiny man child
Which is… hmmm… how the CW Arrow used to act like😂
@@jimnovacancy are you talking about before or after he got off the island.
They could have had him be the Punisher in a hockey mask. And have the morals of the murderous Arrow from season 1.
Surprise DC and WB didn’t get on Stephen for doing a different superhero franchise
Awwwww i felt so bad for The Epic Voice guy
FlamingCookie Ditto...
lol the crying scene
FlamingCookie he was really adorable indeed
I wanted to cry
When he cries, the world cries.
Interesting Fact
Baxter Stockman was indeed a black man in the comic
Why was he made white in the cartoon?
BECAUSE - true fact - the studio was worried in 1989 they would be accused of being racist
Really think about this - apart from gangsters or henchmen - until Serenity - How many really top bad guy black people were there in late 80s - all through 90s -early 2000s?
Not many - in fact next to none by todays standards
which is interesting, black people were denied villain roles in movies because of fears of backlash
just like white people in certain roles are now -
Huh neat
Damn, that's a dumb reason. I mean, they gave Wesley Snipes a bad guy role to play in Demolition Man, and James Earl Jones voiced one of the best villains ever made, Darth Vader.
Also more odd since the very man who voiced the Shredder in the 80's(James Avery) was black
@@seandewar47 and shredder was black in the orginal cartoon.
pretty sure he was a black man in both nick cartoons and the 07 show, so the only time stockman has ever appeared as a white man is the 80s cartoon
I'll just be sticking to the 90's movies when it comes to Ninja Turtles.
Not the 3rd one though....
+Channel Awesome The only awesome movies using time travel I'll trust is the Back To The Future movies
Yeah, the third kinda sucks, but the first two are always good.
+Lydia Cebreros
And the two Star Trek time travel movies; Star Trek IV and First Contact.
catxborsuq1 I'm sticking with that one too, I grew up on it and I love it!
15:25 "CD's nuts" that made my day😂😂😂

AVGN knows about meme culture!
In the TMNT cartoon by Nick, Shredder is actually a good villain, in the sense that he hasn't died yet.
Grandmaster Tactician Randy No, he isnt
Eh. I like this Shredder anyways~
Yeah, each season he ends up getting the last laugh in some way.
Victor Riquelme who I was referring to.
Victor Riquelme be that as it may, I wanted to reiterate my point.
"green lives matter" XD im dying
now i remember hulk in civil war II
Honest trailer guy looks so adorable
I am honestly sure that NC could make a good movie. He’s reviewed so many bad and good ones so if he did make a movie he would never make the same mistakes.
He did make a few movies as anniversary specials years ago. They're called "Kickassia" "Suburban Knights" and "To Boldly Flee".
The movie he makes are kinda awful
"THIS IS TAMARA NOW" lmfao you guys
Every time a disappointing adaptation of classic cartoons is made, Jon Bailey cries. 25:29

lol! someone was a bit trigger happy
Lever happy actually.
it could glide, and stay true for some distance, but could not gain altitude. of all the stories of them returning with shredded tails, they usually still had some semblance of a rear portion, not a completly removed rear section.
@Ryan Struble: Exactly. There is a difference between a "shredded tail" and missing 1/3 of the aircraft.
Even with a shredded tail you would struggle to keep it airborn, due to loss of aerodynamics and the drag it would cause.
Losing 1/3 of the plane suddenly would most likely cause it to spin violently and then crash.
NC, AVGN, And Black Nerd in this awesome crossover episode. Great man!
8:15 Yeah. What I really loved about the 2012 show is they gave the Shredder these burn scars that he hid under the helmet. And even the Mask-Helmet had a bd-ass backstory it being an ancient Foot-Clan Heirloom forged from the weapons of fallen warriors.

Don't forget the 2003 series
I think he did mention the 2000s series with the 2000s series finale
i think that's what he meant
MrGamer1992 and the 2012 series
He acknowledged April's basic info in the current series in the 2014 movie's review. He "watched an episode" of the current series in the Transformers Age of Extinction review with E-Rod. He reviewed Turtles Forever as himself but I can guarantee he hasn't seen any of the other 4Kids series episodes to this day
The 2012 TMNT Series was more adult than the Michael Bay movies. And they had Rob Paulsen, Kevin Michael Richardson, and Greg Cipes in the show, arguably some of the best voice actors out there.
They also had Splinter with real Japanese Wisdom stuff.
And the 2003 series was even better.
