Working on it as a plot fill for BAT-MAN to bring justice on a cosmic scale by fusing the multiverse to the origin of it all as seen in CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS. It is in fact that very same Caped Crusader doing so... Imagine the red bandana turtles being surviving members of T.G.R.I. as families or survivors of their family demise. They have been well trained by BAT-MAN personally & there are nearly 10,000 of them despite THE FOOT CLAN. Their goal being to personally & discreetly aid in preventing crime globally as BAT-MAN goes about assembling his final suit with the fusion of the lantern core rings each as well as seeking the infinity stones & heart of the universe courtesy of having tapped the Lazarus Pit into a stabilized form & learned forbidden techniques courtesy of Splinter.....the final suit acting as a guardian & sentry as well as what contains the heart of the universe, infinity stones & lantern core as a whole as icing on the cake....not necessarily who is wearing the suit. Knowing his success with the Lazarus Pit & knowledge of the forbidden techniques will eventually result in absolute power whereas the assembly of the suit & subsequent creation of a centralize place of power concerning a harmonious cosmos accomplish the mission. The forbidden techniques & lantern corps as a whole being how he eludes the cosmic order as well as confronts.......it all starts with the entirety of the rogues gallery being missing except for JOKER. 🤫 This is the opening scene by the way..

And originally Donatello was the strongest turtle (not Raphael). He was also the smartest turtle and the inventor of the team, building all of their gadgets, but on top of that he was the most strong of them all physically and he wieldet the strongest weapon -> a heavy two-handed bo staff.

The closest TMNT shows they have to the original comic books are the 2003 tv series and the 1990 live action movie. I remember that since Peter Laird talked about the 2003 series in an interview and he said a lot of their stories from the 2003 tv series came from the comic books and the 1990 live action movie had the same origin

Honestly I just love the way Casey Jones just goes "Oops" and flips the switch on the garbage truck.

I love the fact the original tmnt was actually targeted to teenagers and adults.

I feel like Splinter probably trained/entrusted Leo the most for the task. He has the only weapon that could really kill someone easily, plus the mindset for the responsibility of doing so. In the old comics if you read them, there are still distinct personality traits. But yea, they were trained to fight and kill, just like our marines etc. The main difference is they were fighting human ninjas . not robots like the cartoon. Leonardo stabs the shit out of them robots in some of the episodes, its awesome. But they took Mikey's numbchucks away. stupid.

The joke of the original comic was that a group of trained killers going through gritty and action packed fights and adventures were called teenage mutant ninja turtles. The genuinely introspective and heartfelt moments make the concept funnier. It's why the creators, Peter Laird in particular, had reservations about the 1987 show, it missed the point and went all the way into the corny.

I've been envisioning a proper TMNT film that is a _hard_ PG-13 to R rated parody of both the Marvel MCU (especially the Netflix series for obvious reasons) as well as the post-9/11 trend towards gritty, more realistic action films and fight sequences, a la Jason Borne, John Wick, The Equalizer, The Raid, even The Dark Knight Trilogy to a certain extent. With their mutant origins, one could also easily fit in an anti-corporate, environmentalist message as well (think Standing Rock). Could also work in Black/Blue Lives Matter issues as well, with it being set in New York. Done well, such a parody/satire, in the form of the Ninja Turtles, could be an amazing capstone to these current trends in society and film...

It had the best story, the turtles looked great thanks mostly to Jim Henson, and the fight choreography was superb. As opposed to the shit that came after. And don't get me started on Michael Bay's turtles. Fuck that guy. The 1990 film was great. It wasn't perfect. But it was great. I own the Blu-ray and watch it at least once a year.

Personally, I'd like to see a movie adaptation of Fugitoid. That way, I can see the Triceratons on the big screen.

I’d like a live action or animated series on Paramount+ where the Turtles are grittier. It doesn’t need to be overly adult oriented. Just have it at least as dark as the 1990 film, a little more blood, maybe an occasional f-bomb, make Shredder scary. The turtles’ portrayal can still be their normal selves. Give it the atmospheric mix of an underground hip-hop and grunge rock music video.

Thanks for teaching me something cool! I always prefer the darker origin of stories over the family friendly remakes / adaptions. Like fairy tales c:

Me too except for fairy tales

Lol, the Mount Your Friends song at the beginning ever so quietly.

Excellent video, really well done. It seems to be a common hollywood problem for many years- taking an adult themed concept and toning it down to sell it to kids and families, thus losing much of its essence in the process. Sometimes it works, often it doesn't...

Certainly. Hopefully movies like Deadpool will swing us back in the other direction!

Toning a grimdark franchise down to better suit the needs and wants of family audiences isn't bad. It's when cool stuff is toned down NEEDLESSLY just for the little kids, without any consideration for teen, adult and elderly viewers that censorship becomes a problem.

@@ameennasar2583 I think they toned it down a bit too much after parents complained about the use of weapons and violence- it did work well as a PG-ish franchise.

@@CourtofSource I'll be honest with you, as long as Nickelodeon holds the rights to the franchise, remains family-friendly with the new "TMNT: Mutant Mayhem" coming out in August, it'll be a long time before we see a TMNT adaptation based on the original Mirage Studios comics. BTW Love the video!!

We have "Tmnt the last ronin" Now so that's cool

Honestly, I think the Mirage Turtles are the most Ninja-est Turtles I’ve ever seen.

In the animated tmnt on Nickelodeon there was an episode where they travel to different universes and one were the original comics where they try to kill Mikey and Donnie

TMNT has been fun, kid friendly and innocent since 1987, I'm down with a (what Mikey said in the animated film "Tutrles Forever") "hardcore crazy", grim, gritty, serious TMNT series and focus on the Mirage Turtles. Go all "Ninja Assassin" on that series.

You keep throwing the word murder around. That the turtles had a mission to "murder" the shredder when it's obvious there would be a battle. I would say "kill" sure and I agree with dark but murder seems a little harsh.

If I were merely paying back an eye for an eye I'd say perhaps vengeance and a plain kill. If the payback is personal, deeply felt and emotionally attached to the task I'd claim my kill as a ruthless murder with glee. Make them feel it.

I like these turtles.

That’s not true they are not Heartless assassins I have the first comics they are Honorable managers that care about Honor and I don’t want

SpongeBob? I've heard it was originally meant for Adult Swim or something, but I'd like to know if there was any more than that.

Please do more research in the future, as you clearly weren't aware that TMNT (1990) was an adaptation of the comic book, not the cartoon, as those rights were sold separately. This is why characters from the cartoon - Krang, Beebop and Rocksteady, didn't make an appearance in any films until this year, when those rights were finally acquired.

1990 May have adapted a little to the comic but it wasn't much

"I LOVE THESE GUYS!!!" -2003!Raphael Me: Of course, you would!

Even though the comics were less than PG, the ruthlessness of the Turtles is greatly exaggerated on. They weren’t just one dimensional murder machines, and that wasn’t a byproduct of them going mainstream.

My childhood just got fucked up

What about an episode about Mystery Science Theater 3000? Also you guys should make some T shirts, I would totally buy a T shirt.

I'll put it on the list, Michael. Thank you. As for t-shirts-- they will be coming as we grow. The mere fact you would even suggest that means a lot. Until then I promise to keep making great content for supporters like you =). Thank you my man!

3:01 what's the music in background? It's so badass!

It's not murder, it's revenge! That's total different.

I seen one that came out of the Academy of arts it was back to be him bloody and they made them look like real turtles it was a really interesting undertaking

They should've kept them like this. Dope asf. I love seeing the turtles as cold blooded killers slaughtering people.

I'd love a live action adaption of the original comics

Good video

Holy shat the time changed

Woah, Ronin is just Samurai Jack!
