Why TMNT 3 Killed the Movie Franchise - ruclips.net/video/lJH_cdcHQsM/видео.html
I always loved Tokka and Rhazor. I never looked at them as knockoffs of Beebop and Rocksteady. I would actually enjoy seeing all 4 together
Sometimes hindsight is 20/20
Isn't Turtles franchise better now with Tokka and Razr
I just see them as versions of Bebop and Rocksteady
I didn't hate them but was severely disappointed they made up new characters instead of using Bebop & Rocksteady. Most of my friends thought looked rad too, some even thought they were cooler looking. But all agreed it sucked it wasn't Bebop & Rocksteady.
They should have stuck with the dark tone from the first movie
Then they would had lost lots of money, risk go bankrupt. The movie reviewers would definately focus on the violence, making the parents refuse their kids to see the movie. Internet didnt exist back then and the morons started to multiply.
Agreed
Same with Batman, should've kept Burton.
They were afraid the children couldn't handle it 🙄
I absolutely love TMNT 2, but I do wish I could see what the “darker-tone” version would be like. The jokes and wisecracks are surprisingly pretty funny and very well-written, but it definitely lost something by the turtles (besides Donnie) never actually using their weapons. Because of the more comedic and lighthearted tone, at times it also feels like this wasn’t a direct sequel because of how differently Raphael acted. Although, that change in tone fit perfectly with Mikey’s character, and he has the best jokes in the entire movie. “Yeah... a little TOO Raph...” gets me every time lol.
Such a fantastic movie, and I think we ended-up getting the best movie possible. I hate that they made it more kid-friendly because of stupid parents complaining, but I doubt the movie would have been as good if they had kept the same dark tone of the original. It would have lost a lot of the great jokes (“COMBAT COLD-CUTS!!”), and probably Tokka and Rahzar. They’re definitely knock-offs of Beebop and Rocksteady, but I love them anyway.
A darker tone could have worked, but it would have needed a really good story and strong writing to make it work. What they released with TMNT 3 makes me doubtful they would have gotten that strong story for TMNT 2, so I’m very happy with what we got, even if it does feel very different from the original.
So, Judith Hoag complained about the movie being too violent so they didn't ask her back. But then they didn't let the Turtles use their weapons because it was too violent?
I know. That makes no sense to me either.
I heard Jim Henson complained too because he made the puppets
The way I understood it (which could be wrong) Judith Hoag complained about the violence during the filming of the first movie, and the decision to not bring her back was made before the decision to tone down the violence in the second one. On top of that, it seems like the violence was only one of the things she complained about. Again, I could be wrong, this is just how I'm interpreting the information I've heard.
@@explosionsandstuff7787 So in other words, Judith Hoag had a diva complex. And the movie studio wasnt going to put with her complaining, so they showed her the door.
@@IslandBoy-808 nope, it was a Golden Harvest production & she was complaining about the poor treatment of the stunt crew (which included Ernie Reyes Jr/Keno). Had nothing to do with being a diva.
Fun fact: Super Shredder was played by wrestler Kevin Nash
You got 3rd!
Fun fact Super Shedder was wasted in this movie! 20 seconds and Super Shedder is defeated!
Fun fact....that's not fun and everyone already knew that
Yep
being replaced by a soap opera actress was like throwing salt in the wound!
yeah for real lol
Well they did want to clean up all the violence. What better way than to use a "Soap" Opera actress. 😄
Judith Hoag complained about the long shooting schedule. I think the ones who should complain were the actors in the turtle suits. Those turtle suits were extremely hot when worn. They would have puddles of sweat in their foot when they took them off.
That’s who she was fighting for. The people in the turtle suits were mostly from overseas and would be replaced for complaining. She was fighting for them because they didn’t have a voice and she was concerned for their well-being.
Super fun video, however, I hate to break it to you guys, but this video is incorrect, the turtles were not blind. They did not sew the eye holes shut in the masks, they just did a really good job of keeping them small. It was still extremely difficult to see, but it was possible.
Years of experience making these videos has showed me that conflicting versions of these stories sometimes exist. My research came from a 1991 NY Times article that can be found online where Leonardo’s stunt double Mark Caso tells about the eye holes being sewn shut. Does that make your version wrong? No, of course not. And if you can, please share your source to help add context to this thread. All of this is just another example of how it can be difficult to find the truth when more than one version of the story are out there.
@@FunFactFilms Totally appreciate your position and your work, your videos are a lot of fun. My source is me, I played Raphael in the film and worked very closely with Mark. Oftentimes, what makes it to the press is the reporter's version of the story they heard. Also, Mark was not Leo's stunt double, that was Larry Lam. Mark was the "actor turtle." Again, great job on your videos.
Thank you for taking the time to comment. It’s great to have you here to help clarify all of this, and I’ll pin the comment to make sure more eyes see this to know how it really happened.
@@FunFactFilms Hey, I don't want to undermine the video and effort you put into making it, if you want to delete my comments, I am totally cool with that, for some reason, I just felt a need to throw that out there. I've seen mistaken information go out before and I always want to jump up and say "It wasn't like that." However, relative to the other issues and challenges in the world, I don't know that standing up to correct your video is that important. : )
@@kennscott4019 Thank you for your compliments and sensitivity, Kenn, but I don't mind at all that you spoke up because to me these stories represent real people, and having your voice represented here is nice reminder of that, so I think it's great that you have helped clear up misconceptions.
The dancing scene is even more impressive now knowing that they couldn’t see! 👏
Trust me when I say, no kids we're complaining about the dark tone of the original.
Agreed, I was kinda shocked when Ralph cussed however :)
But parents did, especially mums, and they are the ones with the wallet.
The first one will always be king!
Yes. Always!
The suit performers weren’t the only ones who got cameos as two of the face puppeteers did too. In the newsroom scene with Mark and Michael is Rob Tygner, face puppeteer of Leonardo. I got a cameo (Mak Wilson - Michelangelo) as the Vanilla Ice promoter’s assistant. Fun times.
Another fun fact. Richard Divizio who was an actor in several of the Mortal Kombat video games also did some choreography for the movie and portrayed a foot soldier.
Sweet! Thank you for doing this one! Please do the third TMNT movie :)
And this whole time I thought Leif Tilden in the Foot Soldier garb was a young Ryan Reynolds.
Really great video. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
great vii bodacious behind the scenes facts about teenage mutant ninja turtles 2 secret of the ooze [1991] film !!!
So basically, TMNT could've been a good trilogy, people were just too chickenshit.
sounds about right, though i liked the second one as a kid, but yeah i think the trilogy could've been way better, sad to think about. same with the Matrix trilogy tbh
Parents complained. Parents take kids to see movies. Parents buy toys. It was about the money.
@@guardiangibbs2663 Well, duhhhh. Parents are chickenshit.
@@guardiangibbs2663 isn't it always? its too bad though, i doubt we'll ever get another good TMNT movie
Trilogy!? Sheeeet Guarantee there would've been at least like five or six movies if it would've all been to the same tone as the first one. TMNT 90 was The number one independent film for nine years.
Amazing
oh wow i had no idea that they did all the scenes blind! so cool!
Nothing will ever beat the first movie. The story and costumes got sillier and sillier as every sequel came.
When I was 13 back then 1997 I watched all 3 Movies. I always wondered why they don't use their weapons in the 2nd Movie.
i don't even remember them not using them, its crazy how much stuff i didn't notice back then lol
@@professorbaxtercarelessdre1075 Yea back then it was just cool to have another Turtles Movie 👍🏼
I was blown away when as a friend told me, there is Turtles Movie 🤯😯😃
@@TheJinjiDucan yeah, i loved watching the cartoon and playing with the toys as a kid, i never watched any of the newer films but i'll always have a place in my heart for the classic cartoon and first film
Blame the parents. The studio was so afraid of the possible loss of money over the backlash they turned the violence almost to zero, making it more goofy than the cartoon. Be happy they got to at least wear them, because if the parents would had their will the turtles would be wielding pillows and fight with good night stories
@@zilvertron lol so true, parents can go a bit overboard sometimes
Definitely subscribed. Great videos
Welcome aboard!
Textbook example on how deviating from the source material leads to an interior product
indeed
Still a masterpiece compared to any other video game adaption.
There's a reason i watched 2 a handful of times, 3 once, and the original innumerous times as a kid.
Epic!
I’m 4th!
I honestly never realized that they didn't use their weapons lol
how did you not notice? They are caught hanging in a net on the docks alone and none of them had lost their weapons. 1 of them is wielding 2 swords and all 4 are trained in ninjutsu, 2 swords against 1 rope, you do the math. Haing a trial and error i suspect they have been caught a few times but escaped, why not cut the rope now like every other sane mind would do.
@@zilvertron I dunno, maybe because I was 6 at the time and common sense didn't exist in my brain yet lol
I never even noticed the orginal actress for april wasnt in the sequel. I mean I haven't seen the movie in 20 years but still
Imagine being so bad and complaining a lot that they dont ask you to come back for the sequel
..cough cough...corey feldman!
@@robd1329 yeah okay buddy
Fun Fact, Daniel Pesina, who played Johnny Cage, Scorpion, Sub-Zero and Reptile in the first Mortal Kombat game also played a Foot Soldier.
The actor playing the Super Shredder was WWE champion and future Russian from the Punisher, Kevin Nash.
Everyone knows that
4:20 also that woman outside the apartment is suzie from curb your enthusiasm!
The 3 original films are the greatest version. I absolutely love the 2rd n 3rd films the best
Keno was the nest part of the movie 🍿
I always wanted Krang to be in the live action movies.
I always wondered why they say TGRI when in cartoons was like TG-other. Major upgrades w/foot clan in new TMNT 2, MAKES MEWANNA JOIN
because the cartoon took away the Utrom connection from the comics, so it wouldnt make sense to have TGRI on the cans and have to explain that part to kids, so to give the turtles some closer connection they made it that Shredder made the ooze. In the comics Shredder was just some dude leading the foot they killed off in the first issue and wasnt meant to come back.
Favorite parts
0:39
4:26
Frank Welker is one of my all time favorite voice actors.
I think specifically it was Judith raising issues with Golden Harvest's lack of safety and care for the stunt crew which included little Ernie Reyes Jr.
So so violent lol
It would have been nice to of had a dark turtles 2
Ernie Reyes Jr. was Donatello in costume in the first movie.
fun fact tokah and razhor were in the cartoons......for one epsiode
Still... I love being a turtle!! If you know that line your a true ninja turtle fan!!
you made a funny as Splinter would say :)
Thats just dumb. Take it from the wise Michel of Angelo: Forgiveness is divine, but never pay full price for late pizza.
@@zilvertron hey the movie is a classic but you can’t tell me that when he said “ oh and no anchovies!! And I mean no anchovies! You put anchovies on this thing and your in Big trouble okay!! Splinter” okay Michelangelo!! Ugh!! That’ll do and the clocks ticking dude!!
This was when movies had actors not fake computers
So parents backlash a PG movie when Jaws got graphic violence and the first victim under water nude scene, Indiana Jones with the violence and scary scenes like the face melting scene and Beetlejuice dropping the f bomb.
Go ninja go ninja go
2:00 Yup I knew that. You can easily hear his voice. I like to listen to voice actors and try to place them in their respective roles... but maybe that's just me 🤣
Eastman and Laird: "No goofy characters!"
But Tokka and Rahzar, who are more complete idiots and goofy than Bebop and Rocksteady were okay. Also the latter two were already water-downed in the cartoon, so I don't see the point of swapping them into Tokka and Rahzar...
Uh-huh...
They Need To Remake This Movie With 1987-1996 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Cartoons Be In The This Movie And I Don’t Think Judith Hoag Was Too Difficult To Work With And Krang And Baxter Stockman Need To Be In The Movie And Make The Movie Just Like The Cartoons From 1987-1996 And Why Wasn’r April’s Friend Erma And Vernon Fenwick Not In The Movie And Also The Ratking Not In The Movie
Haha I thought the Donatello guy was a young non credited Ryan Reynolds 😂
Ya! From the picture it kinda looks like him, doesn’t it.
Lets ask Ryan Reynolds to answer it!
The first TMNT is the best one they ever made.
Agreed!
So, because someone isn’t a robot they’re deemed difficult. Yeah, that’s typical Hollyweird.
also she was a woman, which doesn't help. hollywood is bullcrap sometimes
My grandma got her leg broken by a ninja turtle. She was taking karate. Sparring with the kid who played the pizza boy in the second movie.
You gotta tell us some facts about the Disney Movie Holes cause I wanna know what the crew put on all those bearded dragons to make the yellow spotted lizards
I kinda want you to do the Star Wars prequels but only if you want to do that
I heard one of the main reasons they went with Tokka and Rahzar rather than Bebop and Rocksteady was that they could sell two more toys to the kids.
Teenage mutant ninja turtles. 1 2 best movie Hits
What an effort to go through just to make sure that the actors faces weren't seen through the mouths, when I had never even noticed until I saw it elsewhere just a couple of years ago. How many people actually noticed that at the time and especially the kids the movie was made for?
COMBAT COLDCUT
They should remake it with the animatronic heads but make it rated R and do it right with dimension X and everything. Do Baxter right etc etc.
They made the Turtles silly and goofy to give the movie a lighter tone, but they didn't want Bebop and Rocksteady in the movie, because they didn't want goofy characters...?
That's not young Ryan Reynolds, that's Leif Tilden in the Foot Soldier grab who does the stunt performer of Donatello and Adam Carl is the voice of Donatello.
Do a video on the three stooges movie
Well, at least Corey Feldman finally got a shout out, albeit a negative one, LOL.
Great job again Rustin. This was just as interesting as your video on the first film.
Take care.
in the industry, making something "more kid friendly" is a method studios use to push people out of the project they have creative differences with
Fun Fact # 8: Kevin Nash was Super Shredder!
Saying fun fact doesn't make it fun. And Kevin Nash was no secret. Everyone has known that for thirty years. It was no secret
do a video on jaws
Hello, Josh Pais, Raphael! Josh had a legitimate reason because being in the suit gave him clostrophobia pretty bad. I wish he could of at least voiced Raph in 2 and 3. Adam Carl voicing Donnie? No. That annoying laugh he had!
The creators were right and they should of listened to them.
I always said Tokka & Rahzar were cool I said more villains for the turtles & they did come out in the cartoons!!!
Corinne Bohrer from police academy or Kari Wuhrer should have played April.
One more thing. On 4:11 The Director's then Wife is the Party Girl in the Red Dress that gets taken hostage by Shredder in the Club.
The film was number one at the box office
What a nightmare
Tirko was better as April anyway.
Parents ruin everything
Lol fellow tommes
Blind actors... when I was a kid in that time we had 3 USD masks that were jet black and SEE THROUGH. but I guess entombing the poor actors was the easier and cheaper option.
yea i still like the 2nd slightly better just the last few scenes with them feeding tokar and razzar transitioning into the dance scene blew my mind. Hopefully we can all agree 3 was terrible, still remember first scene looking at the turtles and saying what is wrong with them, and then the whole thing in ancient japan with their headpieces with no shredder (if i even watched that far) didn't feel very turtles to me and was a huge letdown.
I thought they didn't use Bebop and Rocksteady was because they would have been too expensive what with them being a toyline original instead of comic
I don’t think Casey Jones’s mask in the first movie. He looks at scary. I think that just looks accurate to the TMNT Kartu not the original not the second version but the third version.
I have that Movie on DVD.
Epic rar
that would suck to be the turtle actors
I dont know adout you but this one rock way better than the original.
They coulda just colored black over the eyes in post... It's not like the cgi we have today, but they still could have done it.
New Game
New videos everywhere.... What's going on with tnmt ? New series? New movie?
✨😃🎈🎂🎉next week it's my birthday !!!🎉🎂🎈😃✨
Wasn't the pizza dude one of the turtles also???
So the pizza man from part 1 and the Soho man from part 2 are the same guy and both wore Michaelangelo’s costume
The actors performing blind seems very unrealistic. Having to film each shot in that many takes would be too costly, in both money and time.
The turtle heads had little slots under the eye masks to allow the actors to see. Fact.
You did not mention, that Super-Shredder was played by pro-wrestler Kevin Nash.
Ok thats the 3rd different reason I've heard why Corey Feldman was not in this one....which is it
He was in rehab.
U forgot to mention another cameo who's a familiar face: Michael Jai White.
Part 1 was gutter
So we got a movie that could've been better. Im sure the Jim henson work shop could've made the mousers. Studios ruin everything. I saw the movie as a kid didn't scare me for life. Whinny parents back in the day More so now.
Kid friendly Keno? sounds like a child gambling ring.
I love the 2 first ones but the 3rd oh god no
I want to watch it again. I haven't seen it since I was a child.
That is why second movie for me was fun when i was a kid but now, when i look at it, it looks so stupid. So instead of second movie i just watch 2003 TV series that stays true to original comic books.
The 2 movie is abit of downgrade on the first. Really didnt like Corey Feldman not doing the voice for Donatello. Still entertaining though
As you know, He returned for the 3rd but sadly it was horrible. He also voiced Slash in Nickelodeon's TMNT a few years ago.
...say No to drugs! Feldman didnt
