Yes, they're back... You're favorite mean, green, fighting machines. The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Only this time they are computer animated.
The hit originally started out as one of the most infamous children's shows of all time back in the late 80s and early 90s. And after a hit t.v. series, comic books, three movies, and a failed remake of the t.v. series, Warner Bros. think that they have a hit on their hands.
However, it is in the opinion of this blogger and many others that the studio is simply exploiting my generation's constant need for nostalgia. TMNT was a huge part of my generation, however do we really need to see it being updated for the new generation as well?
All the original characters are here: Leonardo, the goody-two-shoes leader of the bunch, Donatello, the smart one, Raphael, the rebel, and Michaelangelo, the party boy.
Hopefully the studio did not go too far out of its way to make this film "hip" or modern", and although I cringed when I saw the trailer for this film, I know I am going to go see it opening weekend. I owe it to the 6 year old girl that still lives inside of me wishing she was a martial arts, pizza-eating turtle.
TMNT opens nation wide on March 30, 2007.
