TMNT and Me

I'm about to be 28 years old. Whoda thunk I'd get there. But whatever. I don't really hold on to age as a defining characteristic.

Getting Ass is a defining characteristic...

So we're reaaaaaaally finally getting a new reboot of the tmnt in live action. This is going to be huge to me.

Back in high school days, I was all about the 2k3 show, bought all the toys, downloaded every episode until they fucked up the show and put the turtles in the future or some bullshit like that. I guess they figured kids liked batman beyond, so let's do it with the turtles or something. I have yet to fully watch those seasons because I just don't see much value in them.

It's amazing though, the way they can still create stories for the show even though the big corporate heads made them put the turtles in the future. Some how some way, they kept making more stories and kept it somewhata in continuity. I know the biggest part of the future saga was that they were still fighting the bishop character from the past in the future. So that kinda tied it in with the original stories. But still, it just to me back then as a teen watching tmnt, it just look so horrible how they fucked up and changed the entire show's format for no fucking reason that I could figure out. I can't imagine the kids watching it, what they felt. I know I've been around the block in that regard. I was into spiderman for a long time, watched the show religiously, then suddenly he gets warped into the future and has a whole new world full of shit that has nothing to do with the previous series. It was strange to be a kid watching and loving spiderman tas, then suddenly they pull out a dick and fuck all of us kids in the ass with Spiderman Unlimited.

That's the name of game with Tv cartoons. Whatever new toy they come out with, they'll center the show around and especially during the 90s, they'd constantly change the shows to suit whatever toy was out at the time...

I know being a power rangers fan was always tough for me. I really left the show behind the moment David Yost left the show to go be gay or whatever shit he's smoking...

Once they changed EVERYTHING and it truly had NOTHING to do with the original power rangers, it simply ceased being a show I had any connection to... Yet some motherfucker watched it. I know there's little fucking kids today who watch the new power rangers. I could never go back to watching the new power rangers. First of all, I'd never get my eyes off the girl ranger's ass the whole time. Second, these new power ranger shows can't possibly top the original show or the movie. So there's nothing they can do. And I mean, I was actually kinda enjoying SPD for a while but ultimately even that show is nothing compared to the original. The original lasted for 3 seasons before they changed shit. Ultimately they decided that power rangers is like a police force. They have various districts and departments and new rangers all across the galaxy. That's great I guess....

But you lose that sense of family that the original series developed when you constantly have a revolving door of rangers like we have now.

When people think about power rangers, they think, the originals. I don't know anything about the ninja storm rangers, or the mystic force ranger, or whatever shit they have on now. An maybe I'm wrong. Maybe the new shows i 10 times better than the original. but who knows.... I can't really say because I'm not going to give a shit about it. I'm going to give a shit about sliding my dick in some bitches booty....

So anyway what is this posting about. I have a very strange lifetime connection to the ninja turtles. You have to understand who I am. I am a person who embodies everything about cartoons, comics, and generally very abstract works of art. I grew up watching tmnt vhs. I definitely watched the concert fucking stupid as shit, horrible tmnt concert show. Yunno though when I watched it, I alway thought about how it could potentially fit in with the films. Makes no sense but I struggled as a kid to squeeze it in somewhere between maybe movei 2 and 3. The turtles in the concert looked like the 3 turtles anyway. It was interesting. I really think they made the most of the idea of a ninja turtles concert. It was badass. Or maybe everyone involved with that thing was on drugs, I'll never know...

But I am intimately connected to the Ninja Turtle Brand. I played with all the toy I could find back in my day. I mean I loved the fact that our basement looked exactly like the ninja turtles sewer and my little kid brain was just overjoyed by the idea of having a play session with the turtles in a realistic turtles environment. Ugh, to be a kid again.... no fucking hard dick all the time...

It was sweet. I mean the most vivid memory I have is of the time we were at westchester county fair and we went on the ninja turtles ride. THAT SHIT IS CRAZY. Nothing and I mean NOTHING will scare me more than the day I saw a ninja turtle come at me all crazy in the that ride. You don't get on the ninja fucking turtle ride and expect it to be a house of horrors, but they tricked my little kid ass. And it's just forever deeply ingrained in my skull the day I saw a ninja turtle and it sent a shock through my body.

But anyway, ninja turtles is always going to be fun. Even the 3rd film, which is the worst, is fun. It's alway fun to have a bunch of muscled up mutan turtles running around kicking ass. And I can't fucking wait to see them re-emerge in theaters. Sadly I lost my job today due to circumstances that I know are specious and unfounded in any kind of legitimacy, but that doesn't mean my life is over. I still have a mission. I still want to go forward and enjoy ninja turtles, and New batman, and all these things. Life has its downside, but the world of film has always been something that I've enjoyed from the day I was born.
