First Look at Nickelodeon version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

**wallbie** · March 9, 2011, 03:02pm

My only response is "that's nice." My attachment to the Turtles has long been broken. It's not something that I'm bitter about or have any negative feelings on. I'm glad to see something I enjoyed so much is transcending to new generations and thriving. I was just overwhelmed with trying to keep up with the newer TMNT that I eventually had to bid them a fair adieu.

It looks less like censorship and more like they're trying to make the weapons even more violent. Even Don's bo has a blade on it. I remember when Nickelodeon was for kids. Between this and Rango(I haven't seen it but I hear it's more for adults than kids), it doesn't seem like it is anymore.

Nick has been pushing it's boundaries, some of the stuff on I-Carly is a bit mature from what I recall. They also have Degrassi, sure it's on Teen Nick but still. They tend to be pitted as the underdog to Disney and that typically means they (whoever they is) push the boundaries a bit more then who is on top.

Yeah, but it is basically flash animation. It's all words with one shot of each of the turtles. I'm happy you posted it, but if you can't see it due to living in Canada, you aren't missing anything.

ok cool, thanks. curious but glad to know it's not much.

it was basically like the opening to a video game where they slide the character on the screen and put their name on on the image. Nice to see, but action shots are more important. I think it also said 2012 for a release date so that might still be aways off before we see footage.

OMG! They Actually did it! They gave Donatello a spear!
UGH! I will watch the show before I pass judgement, but I am disappointed in all 4 turtles carrying blades.
The title looks very Comicbook like

Now why is it okay for Donatello to have a spear, but Michelangelo can't have nunchucks.

I don't think they actually said they couldn't have nunchucks we all based this on the image of him not having them and parts of Europe having them edited out.

Turns out the reason why is they are giving them all bladed weapons, with Don's and Mikey's being based on their blunt weapons.
