  • Hey guys! What’s up?
    Today I wanted to talk about one of my favorite childhood movies, and why it’s so good. Yes, that’s right, TMNT (2007) is an underrated masterpiece. And you can watch the video to find out why!
    Also the audio might be a little out of sync near the end, so I apologize if it is.
    As always, stay awesome y’all. 😎
    But I hope I can provide at least a little bit of entertainment during this hard time. But, if you need even more quality entertainment, and emphasis on quality, then check out my book, “Injured Umbrella,” on Amazon. It may be even better than TMNT 2007 🤭

    This movie never gets old to me. Even though I’m getting older. I love this film because of the relationship between Raph and Leo. The brotherly relationship.

It was refreshing. i enjoyed the plot so much, and it was kinda scary for me as a little kid watching it (those stone creatures omd).

    This movie is part of my childhood and I watch it occasionally still watch. After having the original series, and a couple of live action movies this animated movie felt like a breathe of fresh air and became a hidden gem.
    You have the dynamic of the characters growing, and with their leader gone they all have their own take and settle in.
    The music is over the top for the mood of this movie.
    The score for the intro, Leo's return, the mellow tone of the music when Raph and Leo argue at the apartment, and ooh... I can't describe how amazing the rooftop fight is between Raph and Leo. Their morals, the animation, the music. It's immerses me everytime. Also it might just be my opinion, but since they're humanoid Turtle's I think it fits TMNT to be animated sooo much better than being live action. I love the original movies, but given the cartoonish style of TMNT it's better as a animated film.

But then crashes his skate board on the half pipe.

      They didn't have a relationship though especially when one of the creator dislike the idea of humans and Turtles having a romantic relationship. Leo just respects her as someone who knows honor and is a honorable warrior. He acts the same with Usagi, an honorable samurai. Honestly, I am pretty tired of people shipping him with her. One of the reasons I dislike the 2012 series.

    I don't know why but Raph laughing when Leo said "I'm better than you." Really set Raph off because to me, his laugh is saying "Oh really? You think you're better than me? You think I'm doing all this because I'm jealous you?" Raph has always been jealous of Leo, but for what he doing for the city, being the nightwatcher he not doing it because he thinks he can do a better job than Leo. But more, "I'm doing this because it better for the city." Raph has the same goals and intentions as Leo, and he not wrong for having a different mindset than Leo. Both of them aren't wrong for having ways of doing justice. Ultimately Raph and Leo are two different people at the end of the day. They don't have to understand what they're doing most of the time and that's ok, they just need to respect each other different mindsets even if it conflict with their own.

    I really enjoyed it as a kid. Despite the story not having much lore other than the foot clan, it was interesting the direction they took with it. I definitely enjoyed the more serious aspect of it, reflecting that of the animated series that ran for multiple seasons. The CG was definitely on point for the time. Would’ve loved to see a sequel or two in this format. (Definitely better than the two live actions we got from Michale Bay. 🤣)

    Thank you for discussing how stupid it was that Leo didn't know that Raph was the Nightwatcher, and how the scene would have been 1000% better if he had known. Leo had just found out the world was ending in 24 hours...Splinter had just told him to bring back Raphael...so he goes after a random vigilante? Plus it makes the entire Hamato family look like fools. The first time I saw this in theatres, I was so excited, thinking this was Leo's master plan to bring Raph home, and then Leo is so shocked and appalled and it made the scene meaningless. But the Raph/Leo fight was epic, I'll give them that.

    The 2007 TMNT is actually my movie of the franchise. There's also an interesting detail during Leo and Raph's fight scene that I really like. Leo is collected for the most part and mostly just defends and deflects while Raph is blinded by rage and charges violently and agressively during every attack. A good symbolism of how angry Raph was and how Leo felt forced to fight his brother but didn't actually want to hurt him. The movie in general has both action, emotions, humour, and very nice interactions between the characters. Overall, a wonderful masterpiece of a TMNT movie! ^^

    This was always my favorite tmnt movie. Though if I were to change some things I would give Mikey and Donnie more scenes. As for the rooftop scene, I'd prefer if Leo was actually trying to recruit the nightwatcher to fight the stone warriors only to find out it's Raph. This would make this moment personal with Raph saying "You were gonna replace me" and Leo saying " well you quit anyway". But still, it's the most epic Raph and Leo fight ever.

    It's interesting that I'm finding TMNT related things now that I'm into it. I really really love this movie, it's a huge part of my childhood. The turtles look absolutely fantastic and have subtle facial differences, colors, and mannerisms that even if I was watching this movie grayscale, I'm sure I'd still be able to tell the turtles apart. The voice actors did a fantastic job breathing life into their turtles and Splinter is voiced by Iroh himself, Mako Iwamatsu. Unfortunately Mako passed before he was able to see this finished product but knowing that he was in this movie makes it feel more special to me. The dialogue is filled to the brim with random banter and one liners like 'come to daddy' (which I love thank you, Taylor) and adds a lot to the scenes they're in. The animation and visuals are pretty and I can't get enough of it. This movie apparently follows after the animatronic movie trilogy and makes miniscule references to it, but I wouldn't know. Since they're older that basically means this is actually Adult Mutant Ninja Turtles, in a way.
    A big complaint about this movie that I've seen was the story. Specifically about the narrative being flimsy or not liking the Leo-Raph drama. I think the brother drama in this movie is really natural. Raph says himself they haven't heard from Leo since he left which I can only assume means that Splinter didn't tell any of the turtles that Leo was writing to him at all. Which in turn probably means Raph felt abandoned and learnt how to do things for himself in that year. Probably to Raph, Leo came back acting like nothing happened and trying to fit himself back into the team. The arguments have some really well written and well voiced dialogue and the brother conflict climax, being their fight in the rain, was very well choreographed. Then Winters' story intersects with the turtles in a pretty natural way which gets the turtles in the right place at the right time to fight the stone generals (which apparently the movie can't figure out who's fighting who). They all make up and learn to fight as a team; it's a really lovely finish to this movie. I love pretty much every aspect of it. The songs, the soundtracks, the animation, the dialogue, everything comes together to give us this underrated masterpiece of a turtles film.

      I love when they are portrayed to have accents. It gives them another layer of character depth by showing where each of them got influenced the most. The 1990s were a mosh pit of American culture, and its such a good rendition of the tmnt when you can tell that Leo was influenced by the blue collar culture and dislikes having an accent at all. Donnie also seems very educated without an accent, but sometimes pronounces something oddly because he only ever read the word in a book, never heard someone say it out loud. Mikey is so much fun with a nearly surfer dude style accent from having watched so many "cool dude" movies. Then Raph, of course, has always been very aware of his surroundings, living in the moment. So he gained a bigger New York accent. I love this style of portrayal.

    I remember being given the DVD for this film when my mum had bought it in on a whim at Blockbuster and just falling in love with it. It was my introduction to TMNT and shaped everything I loved about the franchise today; the older animated series I also loved. The dynamics were amazing and the overall storyline was brilliant. So much so that the more recent and well-known series and movies became honest letdowns.
    I'm just glad some people remember this film in the light it deserves.

    This movie done TMNT right that no movie ever really did. The relationship between the family doesn’t feel fake. My favorite scene is the day after Leonardo is back from training. Splinter Singing happily about how his family is whole again. And yes “Cody is going to break up with Donna, I just Know it” is the most hilarious and quotable scene of the entire movie. To me it’s the best scene. Love how it doesn’t start with the origin or have the same villain in the movie. The shredders dead and the turtles live a life of mediocrity.
