Wow, I am definitely going to enter this. I've been a big DS fan since the first one, even though I'm admittedly not a great player. If I can manage it, I'd like to do a character creation piece of art for this, hopefully with moves and a story and everything.

It would be amazing having your own original character appear in a Darkstalkers game in the future...I wonder how much of a chance there is of that happening?


Good luck everyone! As long as one of us wins something, I'll be very happy! :heart:

April O'neil: Mae Whitman  -  The voice of Katara in Avatar: The Last Airbender as well as the actress that played evil-ex Roxy Richter in the Scott Pilgrim film, so far she hasn't had a whole lot to do yet...but I think her voice is just fine for the younger April of this series.
... her?

Yep!


April's a psychotic lesbian with a whip-blade...........go figure.

They're not going to have sex. That ain't happening.
It happening or not is not the point at all. Of course it won't happen, it's a kid's show. But it's still turtle-human romance which calls out to it in an obvious way.

I hope they get married...and MetalHead is the flower girl.  ;P

Wow...if I was involved with making this show with as much love these guys have been putting into it, some of these comments would nearly break my heart.



"THE THREE TOES" DEBATE:

In their original Mirage design, they always had 3 toes on each foot...it's just that the third one was on the back of their heel, which always kind of bugged me. Secondly, they have 3 fingers...so why wouldn't they have 3 toes? The toes were the first thing I noticed, and I quickly thought, "You know, I actually like that better." Their feet certainly look more like those of a true turtle that way, in my opinion.



"THE VOICES SUCK" DEBATE:

Really? I honestly LOVE the new voices, all around. This is my favorite voice cast aside from the 2007 animated film.


Leonardo: Jason Biggs  -  Plays a serious Leo well when needed, but also the inexperienced 15-year side who still has to gain respect from his brothers. I have a hard time even hearing this voice as the same guy from American Pie.

Raphael: Sean Astin  -  Does a fantastic job showing Raph's eagerness for action and penchant for sarcasm, but also shows his hidden softer side without dropping the tough attitude. He's a much better actor as Raphael than as Samwise Gamgee, in my opinion.

Michelangelo: Greg Cripes  -  The voice of Beast Boy from Teen Titans. I've never really been a fan of Mikey...until this rendition. He's like the little brother who is full of heart, but often feels left out due to his immaturity. I haven't yet cringed at any of his lines, and that says a lot compared to Mikeys of the past for me. He's actually funny, and I love him in this series.

Donatello: Rob Paulsen  -  As the voice-actor of Raphael in the original 80's animated show, this guy was born to play Donny in my opinion, and fits him way better than being cast as Raph. By far my favorite voice actor ever for the character.

Splinter: Hoon Lee  -  This guy has made me actually really like Splinter, another character I never really cared for from the other series. Gone is the decrepit grand-fatherly figure of the past...here we see Splinter as a proud, capable, and even intimidating martial artist master. He is a strict teacher, but also still shows heart as a father figure. I can now believe that Hamato Yoshi and Oroku Saki were bitter rivals and equals in battle. By far the best version ever of the character.

April O'neil: Mae Whitman  -  The voice of Katara in Avatar: The Last Airbender as well as the actress that played evil-ex Roxy Richter in the Scott Pilgrim film, so far she hasn't had a whole lot to do yet...but I think her voice is just fine for the younger April of this series.

The Shredder: Kevin Michael Richardson  -  This guy has done a lot of voicework, and I think he does a great voice for the serious and imposing version of Shredder of this series. Not a trace of humor in his voice...he's a dark master who you do NOT want to disappoint while under his employ.


The series has also had some other very well known actors lending their talents:

Frank Welker - The voice of the original 80's Megatron. A legend in the industry.
Lewis Black - Perfect for portraying an obnoxiously irritating NewYorker who tests Raph's patience.
Phil Lamar - Does a great Baxter Stockman, who is black again as he was in the original Mirage comics.
Danny Jacobs - The voice of Victor Zsasz in the Batman Arkham games.
Nolan North - The voice of Assassin's Creeds Desmond Miles, as well as the voice of Uncharted lead Nathan Drake.
Jeffrey freakin' Combs - Do I need to go into this? I love this guy.

So, yeah...there is certainly a lot of talent going into the voice acting.



"APRIL IS JAILBAIT" DEBATE:

Okay...look......April is different in every version of the TMNT. She's been a woman in her 30's, 20's, and now she is a teenager. Who cares? I think it's a fresh take on the character, and she's actually now the same age as the Turtles. That kind of makes it a little less creepy to me, it makes it less like she's a mother figure, and more like a real friend. Also, I don't understand why anyone would have any problems with Donatello having a crush on her. They are the same age, and they are both tech-geeks. Besides, Donny had a platonic relationship with April in the 2003 series.


- - - -


One of my favorite aspects of the show is that I genuinely get the feeling that these four turtles are truly brothers. Sure, they fight and try to outdo each other...there's that aspect of rivalry. However, I truly buy the fact that they all four really care about each other when things get real, just as true brothers should.

This series is really fun and has a lot of heart to it, and I again hope that everyone gives it a chance. It's a perfect mix of humor and timing that actually works, as well as the action we all love. It's like they are trying to mix some of the better elements of the various imaginings of the franchise in an attempt to appease ALL TMNT fans. I'm with SpeedPreacher...it's my favorite TMNT in nearly 30 years of being a fan. :neutral:

(I didn't see a thread about this, so I thought I'd create one.)


As a long-time Ninja Turtles fan, I've sadly been constantly disappointed with each new rendition of the TMNT. The 2007 TMNT movie was pretty good, and probably the closest they had come to "getting it right" in my opinion. Admittedly, looking back at the original series, the movies, and a lot of the toys...I honestly don't know why I loved them so much. Sure, the videogames are good for the most part, but a lot of the other material has been either a little boring, or outright embarrassing. They just didn't hold up as well these days to what I felt the Turtles should be.

Now, though...I can finally say that I'm completely happy with a new TMNT series. :)


Nickelodeon's TMNT is awesome. I actually really enjoy just about everything about it so far. The humor is just right without being groan-worthy or annoying, the action is really good with some pretty fantastic fights, and it has by far the best version of Splinter ever in the series. They made him younger, taller, and actually a real bad@ss. He's actually got some pretty funny lines too, thanks to the excellent voice-acting. The visuals are very appealing too, once you get used to them Each Turtle stands out very well from his brother, not only in personality but in looks, too.

I find myself just as excited as I was as a child on Saturday mornings when each new episode was about to come on. I'm loving the new TMNT, and I highly recommend it to anyone...whether they are old fans, or completely new to the series. ^_^




SHHH! Mikey! Don't tell Michael Bay!

My skill level in this game confuses me. In the normal game, I lose more often than not. I just haven't gotten the hang of the tag stuff yet, I guess. However, in Scramble Mode, I win about 80% of the games I play. Either way, I'm still having fun with the game so far.  :)

That was great. ^_^






On a not entirely unrelated POSITIVE note....everyone who is a TMNT fan and hasn't seen it yet, immediately watch the animated 2007 TMNT film. It was AWESOME, and probably the last great film version of TMNT we'll ever have (that and the 1st live-action movie being the only ones I know of that were actually GOOD).

Welcome Jason! I hope you enjoy your stay, and have a lot of fun with Mugen. It certainly can be a little overwhelming, but it's highly worth the effort (whether creating content or just setting up your own custom Mugen game). ^_^

I thought Amandla Stenberg was absolutely adorable as Rue, and Lenny Kravitz was awesome as Cinna. He was one of my favorite support characters ever. ^_^

Maybe that's the answer....just go all out and make it SO unwatchable, that it actually ends up so bad it's hilarious. Honestly though, I'd rather see the Turtles franchise die with some dignity left intact.

Saikoro: I second Vanilla Ice for Shredder. Why not at this point.  ;P


------------------------


Ten bucks says that when it's all said and done, there will be exploding manhole covers, April will be 20 years old and smoking hot, there will be some form of pissing, farting, and racism in there...and Krang's robot bipedal armor will have giant swaying mechanical testicles.


Or perhaps the whole story will be ret-conned with completely ridiculous and random BS: 


The Turtles are from an extinct alien race who reproduce asexually and are wanna-be coal miners, and the Shredder is actually their long lost pet back on Planet Bebop. You see, the Turtles got sucked into a space-warp and thrown into the sewers of New York City, and they done lost their memories! Welll, them boys were gone for quite a spell, and they plum forgot to feed him!

Know this: A pet unfed is a pet scorned...and them turtles gotta whole MESSA trouble headed their way now!

I'm loving Scramble Mode...by far the most fun I've had with the game! I really like it when you're fighting against someone who keeps winning, and you have to try to figure out a team that will out-match (or out-CHEAP) their team.


Poison is by far my favorite character for Scramble Mode...that invincible backflip helps so much!  ;D
