    Leonardo is blind, but he can swing the katana like before.
    Mickey is hurt, but you can hear that his agility is still there
    Donatello lost and arm and a leg, but we know Donnie, he is too smart for being affected by that
    And Raph... that scream... was a scream of pain and lost...

  • @michaelwalker8870
    @michaelwalker8870 Před 8 lety +51

    i got caught off guard when i realized that Leonardo had no eyes, its good to see the boys back and that music when they made that epic appearance, that Donatelo always finding time to improvise even when there is none i think Don took leadership right there when i noticed Leo`s eyes and he came foward a bit, i was so proud to see Michael the youngest and goofiest of the group get ready for a hard fought battle, i gotta big surprise when i saw him with one arm. It made me think of Future Gohan and then i was in awe from then on.

  • @UnseelieRose
    @UnseelieRose Před rokem +3

    I loved the more realistic and highly detailed look this production gave the Turtles as well as the return to the original darker, grittier atmosphere. The nod to the original TMNT comic at the end was beautiful.
    When I realized Leo was missing his eyes and Donnie his foot, it broke my heart. But at the same time it was so heroic the way they all stepped up, even Mikey, fighting and winning despite injuries. Even so I still wanted to cry and hug them all and make them feel alright because I'm a complete softy like that.
    Anyway, this was really well done! Thank you!

"why?" cause the turtles look to damn real and as we know, the turtles need to look like toys... and not at all battered and bruised cause kids wont like them... even though the original fans of the turtles are now parents them selves and would love to prolly see this movie come to light... Thumbs Up i loved this...

      @TranslatorCarminum Před 4 lety +3

      Actually, as far as I can see, Leo is the only one whose mask seems to lack eye holes, I think he's the only one who might be blind. In which case, I have to wonder how he can still fight. Maybe he was blinded a long time ago and managed to re-train himself in a vein similar to Daredevil.

  • @therealfrankwhite
    @therealfrankwhite Před 8 lety

    It was a good effort, I didn't care for this style of turtles but my bigger quip with this was that 40 years later and the bad guys still look like weak expendable knock off characters that couldn't hit the side of a barn yard door even if they were 5 feet away from it.

  • @TheRealAlpha2
    @TheRealAlpha2 Před 8 lety +9

    They're a bit chubby but I like them way better than the Bay produced Turtle-Hulks. The frozen in time action was one of the best versions of the effect I've seen, especially with the merged in CG.

    Interesting. The skins and hands might need to be changed a little bit. I thought it’s the lizard’s.
    I like this personally. I would like to watch some episodes, even short length of time, if it would happen.
    Also, I’m glad a woman was added in this video. Need more women, dark skinned people and others, just to be balanced. Blood from both ninja turtles and people are nice.
    By the way, I read your description about this project for a school, which is understandable. Nice job there.
