In the comics rat.
In The first show human
The comics after that sorta go back and forth
In The movies and spin off show he was a rat
In The second cartoon he was a rat
In The newest show hes a human
In the current comics hes a reincarnation of hamato yoshi
But I appreciate the full rundown because that is a lot of back and forth, yeesh

This shot got fucking dark
I also just really like the simplicity of: "the ooze turns you into a hybrid of whatever you just touched."
It's just a neat, clean narrative mechanic.
I'm not ashamed to admit I LOVED Pain and Gain.
i've probably watched it a good ten times as a twenty-something
it's just a good ass movie, through and through
Yes.... Yeeeeeeeeesssssssss!
Re: "Season 4"
Also, The first TMNT film was, and still is, a good movie. Hits all the right notes.
it is so dang goofy and has so many great, dumb lines
chief among them, obviously, being shredder's "babies" line, which is just unfiltered cool
Nah, the sequels were both pretty bad.
All of the elements that make the 1990 still hold up as a fun, well-executed movie are basically gone in both of the sequels.
I don't mean to say that the first film isn't dumb in the sense that it's about four mutant turtles and a mutant rat who are being hunted by a gang led by a walking can opener. But it was at least serious enough to draw me in even after all these years and the execution of camera angles and atmosphere and characterization is still pretty solid all things considered.
Essentially, it was a really good execution of a really dumb idea. The sequels were just dumb all around.
Even though HitB ended up enjoying it, I did have a major disagreement with one of their criticisms.
They also claimed that Operation House Party is a "plot hole," because if Tony had all those suits ready to go then why didn't he just call them immediately? This time through, I specifically looked for an explanation for that and--sure enough--when Tony's on the speedboat with Rhodey he asks Jarvis about the progress on his house, and Jarvis tells him the cranes have just arrived. He didn't call the suits immediately, because they were buried and couldn't get out. So yeah. No plot hole there.
At the very least pick up The Oath because it is one of the best Strange stories ever and will cost you 5 bucks.
Steaaaaaaam
I Wish it had gotten to wrap up. What ever happened to that revival project from a few years back? Wernt
they going to make a new show?
Anyway, season three had the best ending with that opera.
seriously, people
Brian K. Vaughn writing, Marcos Martin drawing
this is a no-brainer
Literally five minutes you posted this, I bought all of GotG and Dr. Strange: The Oath.
Thanks for the heads-up.
Sign me up
in case anybody wasn't already reading that too
Oh? Is it possible there's a glimmer of hope?
It's being directed by someone named Jonathan Liebesman, let's just take a look at what he's done-oh
Oh
I think I would rather actually have Bay direct
You're a crook, Captain Hook, Judge, won't you throw the book at the pirate!
I don't care if it was that way in the original comics, it's dumb
The way Splinter and the Turtles are handled in the new comic series is pretty aces
You're a crook, Captain Hook, Judge, won't you throw the book at the pirate!
the new action figures look dope
grew up on the 80s cartoon thanks to video rentals but nostalgia hasnt blinded me to the fact that it isnt great
the 2003 series is basically flawless until Fast Forward
also havent seen any of the movies
Casey Jones is so great
I think I might actually like the 2007 CG film better though
You're a crook, Captain Hook, Judge, won't you throw the book at the pirate!
the rat king
kraang
All other slights will be forgiven
I don't know why that sticks with me so much
You're a crook, Captain Hook, Judge, won't you throw the book at the pirate!
It was the most pure "holy shit they made a comic book come to life" moment ever.
Steaaaaaaam
Action
Character
Yes, this, but not just for the action it's showing, but what it represents
In a relatively short time, since 2000 with the first X-Men, we've gotten this far
It wasn't so much look at all this shit happening on-screen, it was more "I can't believe what I'm seeing on screen"
For me, the mere idea of all this happening and working is almost more entertaining than the films themselves
You're a crook, Captain Hook, Judge, won't you throw the book at the pirate!
That's also amazing. But that whole sequence is amazing in a pressing me into my seat back with imaginary g-forces with a shit-eating grin on my face kind of way, where as the helicarrier is me jumping up and hollering because holy fuck it's the goddamned helicarrier
And the best part is they keep being good!
I mean, there were missteps along the way - Daredevil, Elektra, Fantastic Four, etc. (fuck you I like Daredevil) - but when was the last time we had a bad superhero film? Fantastic Four 2, maybe? A full six years ago?
EDIT: Four years ago, I kinda forgot Origins: Wolverine existed
You're a crook, Captain Hook, Judge, won't you throw the book at the pirate!
I'm pretty amazed by how many people missed that and others.
I think its weird that we seem to be both a culture that obsesses over looking for plot holes but also doesn't seem to pay much attention. If a movie only tells you something once or spells something out without actually telling you half the people seem to completely miss it.
Whats worse is that a lot of the people missing this stuff are reviewers.
God damn it guys watching movies is your job.
