I used to watch TMNT with my brother when he was little, and then again with my 20 year old 15 years ago, so the format is familiar although the stories feel fresh and obviously the CGI format is far more up-to-date. I think it works really well actually and it was very watchable. My 2 boys certainly enjoyed it - they've watched the entire DVD 3 or 4 times already.
It's got the usual jokey aspect and is very light-hearted, and it's formulaic, but that's really what you'd expect and works very well for a show aimed mainly at children. What does disturb me though, there's far less pizza than there used to be....
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Season 2 Volume 1: Mutagen Mayhem is due for release on 31st March from Paramount Home Media Distribution. It has an RRP of £9.99.
My boys are getting into Turtles at the moment, I bet they would like this!
ReplyDeleteI bet they would. Mine have loved it today - I've got loads done :p
DeleteBud is really into the turtles at the moment but he didn't believe me when I told him it was on television. We may have to get a DVD to show him!
ReplyDeleteHahaha....that's ace. My boys wouldn't believe there are toys! :D
DeleteI used to love TMNT but we haven't managed to get E into them much yet! I think both me and my OH would love this!!
ReplyDeleteHahaha....I can't believe how long it's been going! It's seen a few changes, but it's really not that different :D
DeleteMy 2 haven't really had any exposure to the turtles yet but I do remember sitting watching this with my brother when we were younger and we loved it!
ReplyDeleteHahaha....same as me! My brother thought The Turtles were brilliant! :D
DeleteThose poor old Teenage Ninja Turtles should have been left tin hibernation.
ReplyDeleteAwwww, did you not enjoy it? It is very different. It doesn't have the rawness of drawn animation. CGI is so clean sometimes - but it's what the younger generations are used to.
