[@LittleAl016]

@@knightofoctober To Zelda's credit, she's never the same person every time. And the Skyward Sword, Ocarina of Time, and The Wind Waker versions only got kidnapped in the end of their own games, getting caught off guard. Phantom Hourglass has her rushing headlong into danger without backup. The Twilight Princess version surrendered to Zant, fearing for Hyrule's safety. And the Breath of the Wild version wasn't kidnapped at all, but is directly fighting against Ganon.

[@matthewmuir8884]

@@LittleAl016 Thanks. To add to that, the Spirit Tracks Zelda's _body_ gets kidnapped, while her spirit becomes Link's partner and helps Link throughout the game, and she is easily the most useful companion Link has had in any Zelda game. At the end of the game, it's her and Link _together_ that beat the final boss and plunge the sword into the villain's forehead.

[@Loophole23742]

I never got why the turtles were so big in this movie. They looked like Rocksteady and Beebop. In the cartoons they were shorter than April. They were between 4"9 and 5"2 which made more sense why it would take all 4 fighting at the same time to take down their biggest opponents. It also made sense how they could sneak around the sewers and go unnoticed being small. I think they might of been even smaller in the books, like between 3 and 4 ft.

[@BenDowdy]

Between this and the Xmen flicks, it's like being short is a no- no.

[@UltimateGamerCC]

Hollywood refuses to hire any little people other than Peter Dinklage or Warwick Davis, so they decided to go for taller. that being said even the live action movies had her height, which i definitely didnt mind, but yeah 6+ ft turtles is a bit overboard... which is expected, it's a Michael Bay movie.

[@stanstanstan2597]

I didn’t mind. At this point we’ve left the realm of realism entirely, we have a team of turtle Bros who walk on two legs and know martial arts from their rat sensei/dad.

[@matthewmuir8884]

@@BenDowdy If you're referring to Wolverine, it was a case of acting over appearance; I don't think anyone will argue that Hugh Jackman wasn't perfect for the role... in every way other than being a full foot taller than the character.

Imagining the sequel to this once Out of the Shadows comes out: (The Critic contacts the Nerd) Critic: "Hey, Nerd." Nerd: "Yeah? Oh. What do you want this time?" Critic: "The new Ninja Turtles sequel came out and i'm reviewing it this week. Shall we go another round, for old time's sake?" Nerd: "Oh, now that you've mentioned it, that reminds me. I want to ask you something." Critic: "What?" Nerd: "I was wondering, do you know how to spell "fuck off"?" Critic: "Oh, that's F-U.... wait a minute! Don't back out on me!" Nerd: "Go away! I can't take another shitty Turtles movie! My intelligence almost had a meltdown from sitting through the last one, i'm not going back!" Critic: "But Turtles fans have to stick together, and as avid fans, it is our obligation to join forces once again and finish what we started togeth-" (the Nerd interrupts the Critic's sentence by appearing out of nowhere, right next to him, and punching him in the face) Nerd: "Leave me out of it!" Critic: "God damn it... your intelligence may not have melted down, but your manners sure have. Ow." Nerd: "You're one to talk, you asshole." Critic: "It's just one more time, jackass."

Okay I call bs on the book crap. I’ve watched the shows and movies(except these for good reason) and plenty of things were changed but one thing that stayed pretty much the same was that Splinter already knew Ninjitsu before meeting the turtles. In the early series the reason is because he is Master Yoshi mutated into a rat, in the movies he learned ninjitsu from Master Yoshi. That part was essential to the how the turtles become Ninjas and Bay’s way around that is a freaking book?

Marten Lausvee I did too but I have an oler brother so I grew up with the 80s show and movies too.

[@badexample2674]

***** I was 2 or 3 when people i know were watching the 80s show ( I live in a weird country). But i saw most of the 80s episodes last year

[@MegaFeeso]

Those "red sky" episodes were a little odd

[@d-heroshadez7359]

26:16 best battle cry ever!! LMAO!! I can't stop laughing!!

[@mattmoro1212]

8:13 Anyone else notice the nerd is holding a Manmelter from Tf2?

[@Spuckhuus]

Jim Henson > CGI

[@michellewarns2778]

Roy Scherwey Jim Henson = Fuckin' Awesome

[@mixedtrafficproductions9371]

I agree

[@themagicarcadetma1406]

So tru

[@caliginousmoira8565]

due to the fact that these turtles are 6'+ i did not mind. the 5' suits were heavy af imagine a 6'6" dude in a 180lbs suit trying to be a ninja (fat thor)

[@ninjabluefyre3815]

What if Jim Henson had done CGI?

[@bradchadwick4343]

We're really white! That's literally all I say when someone tells me that's the wrong lyrics or that dab doesn't have correct form

[@geomania8533]

God that elevator scene is the best. Especially with all the clips of everyone dancing to the beat

[@ossomysteriossobutyoucanca9472]

Fox sounds like Phantom Menace Natalie Portman

[@lucasgibbs4050]

Megan Fox, we already had Natalie Portman regretting her Star Wars choice, you shouldn’t have joined TMNT directed by Michael Bay. Any project with Michael Bay these days is just asking to be ruined by greedy, explosion craving hands.

[@bluezero8557]

If they made a game about the critic and the nerd and set it in the teenage mutant ninja turtles nes game. I'd play it. hell id buy it (with in a reasonable price range of course)

[@RpGfreak901]

I'd pay (with someone else's money) to make that happen!

[@zephaniahabebaw2725]

[@mancubwwa]

Well they did make this game....

[@stefanm.734]

15:08 It's more plausible than a guy teaching a rat Ninjistu.

[@PostMelvz]

If Sonic can have a make over why can't the TMNT's?

[@topcoppelion6626]

If it really matters they'll get a George Lucas Special edition bullocks.

[@mintstar3703]

True. Sonic and Pikachu are perfect examples of how to make animated characters look easy on the eyes in live action.

[@legendaryweegee5331]

Because the people who were making the sonic movies were humble enough to take criticism, no matter how harsh. Michael Bay on the other hand has a huge ego so he wouldn’t even consider criticism in the first place.

[@johnjackson8327]

This was before Hollywood realized that making an adaptation exactly like the source material made money

[@LadyOnikara]

Actually, they should have a makeover after this. Since they got Sonic to look like the game version instead of an anorexic weasel, make the Ninja Turtles actually look like Ninja Turtles instead of shelled toads on steroids.

[@spaghetnoodle6441]

17:19 is my favorite part of the review

[@BaggyFTJ]

My favourite versions of the turtles was the CGI animated 2007 movie and the 2003 tv series. The 2007 film was an animation treat and the portrayal of the characters was how I remember them from the 2003 tv series with a slight darker tone and I loved Raphael's nightwatcher side story. The 2003 tv series was a Saturday morning cartoon done perfectly with a unique style and some really cool action sequences and characters.

[@maximilianosanchez1106]

In the IDW comic the turtles and Splinter are the reincarnations of Hamato Yoshi and his four sons that were kill by the Shredder, also they're reincarnated animal forms were in a lab were April worked (like in the movie). And that make the fact that they know the ninja arts more believable that this movie.

[@grimlockthetyrant4521]

What's the name of the music where critic and nerd talk about the different versions of tmnt at the end of the video? I can't find it anywhere and I've been looking for a long time.

[@CleverClothe]

"It's like Vine..." That joke didn't age well.

[@reijiminato8762]

24:38 - Cue "Girl from Ipanema" by Astrud & Joao Gilberto

[@andrewkful]

0:09 That was a fun spoof to animate!

[@AndrewHager02]

Great job, man! You've really got your work cut out for you!

[@Geekzarro]

The thing I love the most about reviews like this, is that you guys can make something incredible and awesome out of something really awful. I've seen this review many times already, and always I end up almost crying of emotion, pure lovely nostalgia :') Thanks Nerd and Critic

[@bardinblue9830]

"Just a big giant toy commercial..." I suppose the same could be said of the Transformers, He-Man and She-Ra and the Masters of the Universe, G.I. Joe, Ghost Busters, and so many other ideas and concepts that were popular with kids during the 1980's and 1990's. Heck, when figurines and action figures of video game characters finally came out, like Mario and Link figures... and then the Mega Man action figures based both on the silly cartoon and those closer to the actual concept art for the games - I wanted those too - even in my adult years! Funny, and yet this video is so true about growing up in the 80's and 90's with the cartoons, games, and toys... and then comparing new concepts of each to our memories of what we had growing up. Thank you for this entertaining, and yet somehow insightful, piece of commentary Angry Video Game Nerd and Nostalgia Critic! You guys are both awesome.

[@rootless4042]

Dude what the heck was that at 20:58 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@salmagundi_media]

"Did my voice just come out of your mouth?" Gold.

[@ldragothelordofdragons1859]

24:10 The Christ: you must form a rap band Nc: right, what Always cracks me up every time

[@heetsees]

I saw this movie with my wife when it was released. It was a New york theater at midnight and the place was completely empty. It was a vacation from Edmonton, Canada and it was fucking amazing to see the TMNT with my beloved, while in New York City in the opening weekends! The experience was amazing and the film is definitely not bad for a turtle movie.

[@Seanatonin]

Later, the Thirty Something Nerdy Critics call in reinforcements in Big Dre

[@YourObedientSandwichAHam]

I'm not a fan of TMNT (don't hate it, I just didn't grow up with it), but I have to say I thought that one scene in the elevator was fun.

[@lord_vwphaeton1883]

All jokes aside, ill give the movie some credit... The movie's lit well and the colours are REALLY good... Like *REALLY* good... It is, in my humble opinion, a good looking movie... Edit: forgot to add... Anyone thought Will Arnett was actually Patrick Wilson? I legit got confused...

[@mwizachihana9551]

24:38-25:41. My favourite scene in this WHOLE review.

[@moonleafteaofthemonth]

Isn't that the horse from "horsin' around"? Lol

[@ThomasSpychalski]

Shut up Todd and clean up your shit! ;)

[@dgood5707]

Who thinks that if they made Splinter Hamato Yoshi instead of a rat, and the turtles were April's pets, and Splinter as a human is a friend of April's dad, but one day her father experiments on them, and Splinter gets mutated by accident, and that causes the mutation in the turtles, would make a much better TMNT movie? Cause I think it would be.

[@apenasmaisumdiogo.7115]

I agree, I never believed too much in that idea that he would be master of martial arts only by reading a book

[@jasonjoseph6497]

The shredformer killed me😂

[@samkresil6011]

22:31 Michael Bay made sure to get a shot Megan Fox's ass to get a good batch of money in the bag. And even after their quirrel during the making Transformers 2, it still didn't work well between them.

[@aaronsiebert2758]

"Or if the troll from LOTR joined a street gang" That is extremely accurate

[@poppyraima5342]

I'm no fan of this movie, but I do have to wonder why everyone points out how apparently "ugly" the turtles are. But like, how else are they supposed to look?

[@SM-nz9ff]

If only there was another movie this movie was based off of that we could point to...dumbass

[@alanzapreservationtheythem2861]

Fair point Poppy Raima however it’s hard to pay attention to the story and characters when all you wanna do is look away from the screen

[@iiirdvii840]

Also.... do people seriously think its THAT hard looking at them.

[@cipher6207]

well for one thing the turtles aren't suppose to be that big because in real life if you what to become a ninja you weren't allowed to be that huge (me thing easier for ninjas to sneak a round and their slender muscular body me it easier to blend in the crowd when wearing disguises or easier to hide in the shadows during their missions . The way they look is fine expect, there not suppose to be that wide

[@garibaldibritann1240]

At least Injustice 2 have gave the right CGI rendition on turtles

[@dusdn0205]

What's the title of the music starting 27:10 ??

[@superdogsam6230]

Another reason Fischner would have worked is because Shredder was a businessman by day in Mirage comics.
