The 1st TMNT movie was a masterpiece!!! Plz make a reunion movie!!!
TMNT and TMNT 2 secret of the ooze was the greatest 2 movies ever for the turtle's franchise I wish they would have used the same costumes and effects in the newer TMNT movies instead of what they used. Please make a few more like TMNT and TMNT secret of the ooze.❤
When the 4 turtles come through the door behind keno when he’s in trouble, and they all jump and it freezes with the title card and music amps up.. it still gets me hyped until today. lol

Nice interview. Cool to see the cast there! They need a new sound person. lol
Great panel and its wonderful to see the original cast of the tmnt 1990 film,the original trilogy and the 80s tmnt cartoon was got me into tmnt in the 1990s.
This is great to get all them back together again. Glad they are doing conventions.
💚TMNT💚 i remember watching teenage mutant ninha turtles with my mother at cosmopoliton twin cinemas woden (canberra, australia) 1990! ❤
i vaguely remembering watching the first tmnt in theaters...my mom took me and she told me i was so excited...i was 3 yrs old then and still a fan today
What I love about the Turtles it how it makes itself relevant for every generation. I was into the '87 cartoon and the '90s film. My eldest two kids were into the 2012 series and had loads of figures. My youngest son loves the Mutant Mayhem film and has watched the '90s movies more than me!
Still one of my favorite movies growing up. Much better than the the recent movies

Elias "Casey Jones" Koteas was in a new trailer I saw (A24 film? Mother and Daughter film), so he was possibly shooting the last bits of that as an elder.
Wow, this is fresh. I thought for a bit this was recorded in like 2005 or something until Leif Tilden mentions cgi/tennis balls at 18:25

The original TMNT movie was awesome! It had that perfect balance of humor and being dark at the same time. The 2nd one, although not as good as the first was still a classic. Glad to see the cast from both films. This was a big part of my childhood. Wish Toshiro Obata (Tatsu) and Elias Koteas (KC Jones) were here too.

I love TMNT 3! Forget you haters! The TMNT Trilogy is one if my favorite trilogies.
Turtles 1 is to Turtles 2 as Conan 1 is to Conan 2. The studio kid-i-ified the formula, which didn't make it bad, but made it not as good. 80's franchises sometimes tended towards kidification; even Rambo had a cartoon. Here's hoping for another grungy, "darker" turtles like the first, one day.

I get that, but there’s also something about making another copy or even having a similar style as what you already did that might not be as satisfying. If anything it just amplifies the original in an even higher regard.
@lyrand6408

Similar thing happened also with Ghostbusters 1 Vs 2, and Batman '89 Vs Returns; where the originals were a bit darker, and the sequel was made more family-friendly (especially TMNT2 indeed). However, back then, I genuinely enjoyed both TMNT movies almost equally. As a kid back then I didn't have the critical analyzing capacity than I have today and so I simply enjoyed my beloved TMNTs on the screen and never quite realized - at the time - that the first one was considerably darker than the sequel, because I was just too busy having fun watching them both. It took a couple extra years when I finally rented TMNT3 on VHS when I figured out pretty much early on in the movie that something wasn't right, it looked cheaper, the costumes were weird, movements were stiff, etc. The Turtles' personality was still there (mostly), the actors did the best they could with the given script (and the overall budget), but yeah, TMNT1 and 2 for me are both all time classics.

As a kid, I loved Mikey. As an adult, I loved Raph. Nearing my 40s now, I love Leo. I'm starting to bet in my elderly age, Donatello will be next.
Almost 35 years ago when, teenage mutant ninja 🥷🏻 turtles 🐢 movie came out in 1990.
Every time people watch this movie and the sequel, they buy a pizza and watch this movie and the sequel.
I'm sad Elias Koteas isn't part of this panel, but I'm so so so so soooooo glad that Cory Feldman is also not part of this panel.

Can we get a true 4K set with deleted scenes? But also extended directors cut.?

Please have these actors in the last ronin of possible is something shape of form as an honor to the first two movies

Splinter is also the hardest one to find. Mainly because the turtles make themselves noticeable all the time.
