00:01:58 (dramatic music)
00:02:01 - Love a good stylized bumper.
00:02:03 - Cool.
00:02:04 - Greg Pitchers, I love that production company name.
00:02:09 - Already winning you over.
00:02:11 - Listen up, we're going after Dr. Baxter Stockman.
00:02:16 - Yeah.
00:02:17 - Stole billions of dollars worth of research
00:02:19 and created an actual mutant.
00:02:22 - No. - Wow.
00:02:24 - Each of you has been issued
00:02:25 a high-powered anti-mutant neutralizer.
00:02:27 - Anti-mutant neutralizer.
00:02:29 - Does that mean it can work against the turtles?
00:02:32 - Yeah.
00:02:33 - Bring me Stockman's mutant
00:02:35 and whatever he used to make it.
00:02:38 - I love how it's oozed in green.
00:02:40 - Stick 'em like a stuck Stockman.
00:02:44 (gun firing)
00:02:46 - Love that they're using like-
00:02:50 - I love how you can really feel like they're drawing.
00:02:51 Yeah.
00:02:52 - Using like pencil strokes for even light.
00:02:54 - I perfected the ooze.
00:02:56 Are you excited for that?
00:02:57 (gun firing)
00:02:58 - Is that a fly?
00:03:00 - I think it's a super fly.
00:03:01 - We're safe now.
00:03:03 Soon, I'll make you brothers and sisters.
00:03:06 - It's Giancarlo.
00:03:07 - It's all our characters.
00:03:08 - Bebop, Rocksteady, Mondo Gecko.
00:03:10 - I'm creating a family.
00:03:12 - Bebop, Rocksteady.
00:03:13 (laughing)
00:03:15 - Give them the compound V already.
00:03:16 (grunting)
00:03:19 (gun firing)
00:03:21 - Great POV.
00:03:24 - Cool.
00:03:24 (gun firing)
00:03:25 - Where is the specimen?
00:03:26 - I, I, I.
00:03:27 (gun firing)
00:03:30 - Too late.
00:03:31 - Oh, cool.
00:03:31 It's like a horror movie right now.
00:03:33 - Yeah, it's very gothic.
00:03:35 (gun firing)
00:03:37 - Damn.
00:03:40 - Oh my God.
00:03:43 - Oh my God.
00:03:43 - I'm making you talk about this.
00:03:45 - Jeff Goldblum?
00:03:46 (laughing)
00:03:48 (screaming)
00:03:50 (grunting)
00:03:54 - This is straight up like a horror movie.
00:03:56 - Whoa, dude.
00:03:57 (gun firing)
00:03:59 - No.
00:04:00 - Yes.
00:04:01 (screaming)
00:04:03 - Oh, that's what I am talking about.
00:04:06 I love that there's like a 80s, 90s animation style to this.
00:04:10 - Yeah.
00:04:11 - People always liken it to Spider-Verse in the trailers,
00:04:13 but I'm definitely getting more like an 80s, 90s
00:04:15 type of drawing style.
00:04:16 - Which is when it was created in '84, I believe.
00:04:19 - This feels like you're watching a movie
00:04:20 some kids sketched in their notebook.
00:04:22 - Yeah.
00:04:23 (upbeat music)
00:04:25 - And thus the turtles were created.
00:04:29 (gun firing)
00:04:32 - Not bad, Logo, not bad.
00:04:36 - That's pretty cool.
00:04:39 - Cool.
00:04:40 - The heavy metal Logo.
00:04:41 - Red and orange outline.
00:04:43 - You know, like pizza sauce and pizza crust.
00:04:46 (upbeat music)
00:04:48 - Michelangelo.
00:04:49 - Definitely.
00:04:50 (laughing)
00:04:52 - Leonardo.
00:04:54 - Raphael.
00:04:55 - Donatello.
00:04:57 (upbeat music)
00:05:01 - Cool.
00:05:03 - Let's go.
00:05:04 - Let's go.
00:05:05 (upbeat music)
00:05:08 - I love when camera tracks them like that.
00:05:13 So fun.
00:05:14 - Hell yeah.
00:05:16 (clapping)
00:05:17 - We must use stealth and cunning
00:05:19 to infiltrate the human world and retrieve.
00:05:21 Go Kurt.
00:05:24 - Hell yeah.
00:05:25 - Donnie, you're on toiletries.
00:05:26 Raph, you're stocking up the pantry
00:05:28 and Mikey, you're on junk food.
00:05:30 And remember, don't let any human see you.
00:05:32 - Humans are the demon scum of the earth.
00:05:35 (laughing)
00:05:37 - They love to murder that which is different from that.
00:05:40 (laughing)
00:05:43 - Let's go.
00:05:44 - Let's go.
00:05:45 - Hey, I'm the leader of the rodeo.
00:05:46 - You sound like you have bronchitis.
00:05:48 (laughing)
00:05:49 - Did they record with all the teenagers in the same booth?
00:05:53 - I think it sounds like, yeah.
00:05:55 - Yeah, I think they did.
00:05:56 (upbeat music)
00:05:58 - This is way too natural.
00:05:59 - It's like Tom Cruise, Mr. Impossible.
00:06:02 (laughing)
00:06:04 (upbeat music)
00:06:08 - Nice.
00:06:11 (upbeat music)
00:06:14 - Yeah.
00:06:15 - Gotta build up and get swole.
00:06:18 - Parents citywide are calling for a curfew
00:06:20 until a criminal is caught.
00:06:21 But the only lead is a mysterious mastermind
00:06:24 known on the streets as Superfly.
00:06:27 - Superfly.
00:06:28 - So no Shredder this movie, okay.
00:06:31 Or maybe the Bob Marock's movie.
00:06:34 - Or that could be an Easter egg.
00:06:35 - There's an outdoor movie night in Brooklyn.
00:06:37 - Yeah.
00:06:38 - Yeah, I hope it's a funny one.
00:06:39 - I hope it's violent.
00:06:40 - I need to chill out right now.
00:06:41 - Hopefully it's better than Tremors
00:06:43 'cause I know Raphael didn't like that one.
00:06:45 - Well done.
00:06:45 (laughing)
00:06:47 (upbeat music)
00:06:48 - Whoa, Paris Bueller.
00:06:49 - Oh wow, that vest is a choice.
00:06:51 - Yes.
00:06:52 - Is this high school like in real life?
00:06:55 - Yeah, you go to high school,
00:06:56 you can just hijack a parade whenever you want.
00:06:58 (laughing)
00:07:00 - Same questions we asked when we watched it.
00:07:02 (upbeat music)
00:07:04 - Oh, Leo wants a goth GF.
00:07:08 - This is really interesting.
00:07:09 So they're like really yearning for human connection.
00:07:12 - Maybe one day everyone will love us
00:07:13 like everyone loves Paris Bueller.
00:07:15 - Yeah, yeah, you know, maybe one day.
00:07:18 - Something tells me this is gonna be a tale
00:07:20 about self-acceptance.
00:07:21 (laughing)
00:07:24 - Stay hidden.
00:07:27 - It's actually doing a really good job
00:07:28 at capturing that teenage loneliness.
00:07:30 - Yeah.
00:07:31 - 'Cause they're not even like looking upon adult,
00:07:33 or they're not even looking upon other teenagers,
00:07:35 they're looking upon like adults actually.
00:07:36 And I know what that feels like as a teenager
00:07:38 to have that feeling.
00:07:39 - You make quiet noises.
00:07:40 (hissing)
00:07:41 - That makes it louder.
00:07:43 - Boys, where have you been?
00:07:45 - Oh my God, he's so old.
00:07:47 (laughing)
00:07:49 - Is that Jackie Chan?
00:07:50 - Yeah.
00:07:51 - Yeah.
00:07:52 - Look, we're really sorry, Splinter.
00:07:53 Some of the guys want to see a movie
00:07:54 and I tried to talk them out of it.
00:07:55 - Leo!
00:07:56 - What?
00:07:57 - You watch a movie with a human?
00:08:00 - Worst leader.
00:08:02 - You don't remember why human are disgusting monsters?
00:08:06 Why they gonna milk us for our blood?
00:08:09 - We don't even have nipples.
00:08:11 (laughing)
00:08:13 - Just thinking that's an odd way to phrase that.
00:08:17 - Oh.
00:08:17 - No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:08:20 (dramatic music)
00:08:21 - It all started 15 years ago.
00:08:23 - Splinter Urgent.
00:08:24 - I was young rat in my twenties.
00:08:27 I was on top of the world.
00:08:29 I have one friend, he was a cockroach.
00:08:33 We got along very well.
00:08:35 His name was Kevin.
00:08:36 - Yee-tah!
00:08:37 - There it is, there it is.
00:08:38 - I ate him.
00:08:39 - I ate him.
00:08:40 (laughing)
00:08:42 - Was it Kevin Eastman?
00:08:43 - Everything changed.
00:08:45 (dramatic music)
00:08:47 - Oh, so adorable.
00:08:50 Really love the animation.
00:08:51 I love the heart behind this a lot.
00:08:54 - Whatever this move was, it transformed us.
00:08:58 (grunting)
00:09:00 - Whoa.
00:09:02 That's so cool, like seeing the actual transformation.
00:09:05 - I became older rat.
00:09:07 (laughing)
00:09:08 - You guys were babies, so you stayed baby.
00:09:11 (laughing)
00:09:12 - You look like Squirtle.
00:09:14 - I do.
00:09:15 - Yeah.
00:09:15 - And then they'll evolve into War Turtle.
00:09:17 - We became a family.
00:09:18 (upbeat music)
00:09:21 - Oh, hell yes.
00:09:22 - Greetings, girl, and welcome to my world
00:09:25 of crazy right now.
00:09:26 (laughing)
00:09:27 - I like your-
00:09:28 - There is such a youthful quality
00:09:30 to the way they drew this movie.
00:09:32 Really feels like teens put it together.
00:09:34 In the most complimentary way.
00:09:36 - Yeah.
00:09:37 - Yeah.
00:09:38 - Like a finessed version of it.
00:09:40 - Watch another video of Squirtle.
00:09:43 He's afraid of a lot of things to say.
00:09:45 - When you think about it,
00:09:46 he's gotta take care of four kids by himself.
00:09:48 It's not easy.
00:09:49 - He's a single dad.
00:09:50 - Yeah.
00:09:51 - And I like how they're really capturing him
00:09:52 being a father, not just a sensei.
00:09:54 - Yeah.
00:09:55 - As a matter of fact, how does he become a martial artist?
00:09:57 (laughing)
00:09:59 - He's a survivalist, so he learned.
00:10:01 - You were obsessed with the human world.
00:10:05 So I decided to give a shot.
00:10:06 - Oh no.
00:10:07 - No, stay down there.
00:10:09 - Okay, the guy's gonna have to learn to accept risks.
00:10:11 (dramatic music)
00:10:14 - Oh my God, they are so adorable.
00:10:16 - Yeah.
00:10:17 - I want plushies of each of them in baby form.
00:10:20 - They are so cute.
00:10:22 (laughing)
00:10:22 (dramatic music)
00:10:25 - Oh no.
00:10:28 - It didn't go well.
00:10:30 - Oh my God, it's a rat man.
00:10:32 - Rat man.
00:10:32 - Everybody look.
00:10:33 - SpongeBob.
00:10:35 - Paramount?
00:10:36 - Oh yeah.
00:10:37 - Nickelodeon.
00:10:38 (dramatic music)
00:10:40 - You rat.
00:10:41 - Jeez, guys.
00:10:43 - Terrible.
00:10:44 - Aw.
00:10:45 - Look at the adorable turtles.
00:10:47 (dramatic music)
00:10:49 - Ooh.
00:10:52 - Ah.
00:10:53 (dramatic music)
00:10:55 - World of a way.
00:10:57 - Aw.
00:10:59 - That day, I promised to never let you get hurt ever again.
00:11:03 I needed to find a way to unlock ancient secrets
00:11:08 of ninjutsu.
00:11:08 - Oh, okay.
00:11:11 - Weapon of death.
00:11:12 And I found it.
00:11:13 (dramatic music)
00:11:15 - Okay.
00:11:16 - He learned from this.
00:11:18 - Yes.
00:11:18 - Yes.
00:11:19 (dramatic music)
00:11:22 - Oh my God, he just learned from cinema and television.
00:11:26 - This is great.
00:11:27 (dramatic music)
00:11:30 - Whoa.
00:11:33 - Oh my God, so many classic kung fu films.
00:11:35 (dramatic music)
00:11:38 - Was that Jackie Chan?
00:11:40 - Yeah.
00:11:41 - Yeah, he actually used Jackie Chan.
00:11:42 What an Easter egg.
00:11:43 - That's so meta, I love it.
00:11:45 - We only need each other.
00:11:47 You boys are all I got.
00:11:49 And you're all I'll ever have.
00:11:52 - Dude, Jackie Chan's killing the voice work here.
00:11:55 - Yeah.
00:11:56 - No leave the sewer for one month.
00:11:57 - Seriously?
00:11:58 - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:11:59 I made up my mind.
00:12:00 - How are you gonna get food?
00:12:01 - Uncle.
00:12:02 (laughing)
00:12:03 - Jackie.
00:12:04 (laughing)
00:12:05 - I just gotta get out of the sewer, man.
00:12:07 I mean, I like you guys and all,
00:12:08 but I just simply cannot live a happy life
00:12:10 knowing that your faces are the last things
00:12:12 I'm gonna see before I die.
00:12:13 (laughing)
00:12:14 - Jeez.
00:12:15 - That's fair.
00:12:16 - The time actually changed on the clock.
00:12:18 You'd never see that happen.
00:12:20 (laughing)
00:12:21 - Target's approaching.
00:12:22 (dramatic music)
00:12:25 (shrieking)
00:12:27 (shrieking)
00:12:29 - The dark knight.
00:12:30 - Yeah.
00:12:30 (laughing)
00:12:31 - Hit me.
00:12:32 - Police response.
00:12:33 (gunshots)
00:12:35 - Hoo.
00:12:37 (dramatic music)
00:12:39 - I love this music.
00:12:40 - Who did the score?
00:12:42 - I don't know, but every choice is very transported
00:12:45 for the exact mood and moment we're in.
00:12:48 (dramatic music)
00:12:51 - Hoo.
00:12:54 - I will say the street chase stuff does remind me
00:12:56 a lot of the Spider-Verse movies.
00:12:58 - What are we gonna do?
00:12:59 - Super-Clint's gonna kill us.
00:13:00 (dramatic music)
00:13:02 - I even love how the facial anatomy's on.
00:13:04 - Oh.
00:13:05 - I knew it.
00:13:06 - I heard your abdomen come in, pick 'em up.
00:13:07 - That is sick.
00:13:09 - It was like, you gotta call 'em Superfly for some reason.
00:13:12 - Damn.
00:13:12 - Strong enough to hold an ice cream truck
00:13:15 and three people in it.
00:13:16 (dramatic music)
00:13:19 - Now that's a hell of a hideout.
00:13:21 - Yeah, jealous.
00:13:22 - I just love how disproportionate some of the facial
00:13:25 features are on people.
00:13:26 - Yeah.
00:13:27 (dramatic music)
00:13:28 - Superfly.
00:13:29 (screaming)
00:13:31 - Ah.
00:13:32 - Is he eating them?
00:13:33 - I don't, I guess so.
00:13:34 - It seems like it.
00:13:36 - They stole a radioactive storage unit this time.
00:13:38 - Put tracking devices on all shipments.
00:13:41 - Yeah, yeah, love it, love it.
00:13:45 - Stay still.
00:13:45 - Gonna go viral.
00:13:47 - Teenage viral Ninja Turtles.
00:13:50 - Awesome.
00:13:51 - Come on guys, we just got ungrounded.
00:13:53 All right, let's go home.
00:13:54 - Is it weird to have your head so far up dad's butt?
00:13:56 - Oh.
00:13:57 (laughing)
00:13:58 - Yo, check this out in slow mo.
00:14:00 (splatting)
00:14:01 - Whoa.
00:14:02 - Dang.
00:14:03 - Fruit Ninja?
00:14:04 - He's gonna die.
00:14:05 - Hey, why did we pick a fruit shaped exactly like my head?
00:14:08 - Your head looks like Stewie had a baby with Hey Arnold.
00:14:11 (laughing)
00:14:13 - Yep, that's funny.
00:14:14 - It's a deep reference.
00:14:15 (screaming)
00:14:18 - Was that April O'Neil?
00:14:21 - It was.
00:14:22 - Dang.
00:14:23 - Good call.
00:14:23 (dramatic music)
00:14:26 - It's a good thing she was wearing a helmet.
00:14:28 - I know.
00:14:29 - Murdered her.
00:14:30 (laughing)
00:14:31 - Oh.
00:14:31 - What's her deal?
00:14:35 - She's yelling at us a lot.
00:14:36 - I think she's mad that we hit her with the ninja star.
00:14:38 - She's asking Leo out on a date.
00:14:40 - I think he's stealing her scooter.
00:14:42 - Hey, lady behind you.
00:14:43 - Actually, we just need to skip the conversation.
00:14:46 - No, your scooter.
00:14:47 - For money.
00:14:48 (engine revving)
00:14:49 - Ah.
00:14:50 - You gotta be heroes now.
00:14:51 (engine revving)
00:14:53 - Oh, we tried to warn her, nothing more we can do.
00:14:55 (laughing)
00:14:58 - I gotta get the scooter back to this beautiful
00:15:01 and charming human once.
00:15:02 (laughing)
00:15:05 - Prove yourself.
00:15:06 (dramatic music)
00:15:07 - He's gonna get grounded for months now.
00:15:09 - Oh man.
00:15:09 - I am genuinely loving this movie.
00:15:13 - Yeah.
00:15:15 - Hasn't missed a beat so far.
00:15:16 - So we're gonna need the most foolproof plan.
00:15:18 Every single ninja technique, all right?
00:15:19 I need you guys to use stealth to block the doors.
00:15:21 Did you say going loud?
00:15:22 - Wait.
00:15:23 (screaming)
00:15:24 (laughing)
00:15:26 (screaming)
00:15:28 - That's a lot of guys.
00:15:29 - Oh, you got some ass whooping to do.
00:15:33 You could take them.
00:15:34 - We've prepared our whole lives for this.
00:15:35 - Have I actually been in a fight?
00:15:37 - Oh no.
00:15:38 - You notice, but all I've got is a big stick.
00:15:40 - Oh my God, this is great.
00:15:42 - I've told you, I dream about fighting every night.
00:15:44 - You've got a rage problem, right?
00:15:46 - That's not a problem.
00:15:47 (screaming)
00:15:50 (screaming)
00:15:52 - Oh my God.
00:15:55 - Oh my, I'm gonna be sick.
00:15:55 - Oh my God, I'm gonna be sick.
00:15:56 - I'm glad it wasn't the nunchucks.
00:15:59 It's always the nunchucks.
00:16:01 - It's got shades of Ace Ventura
00:16:03 when he had the thing stuck in his leg.
00:16:05 - Murder the Sharks!
00:16:06 (screaming)
00:16:08 - Did he say they looked like sharks at one point?
00:16:12 Was that a street sharks reference?
00:16:13 - You go left, I go left.
00:16:16 - Whoa, come on Leo, delegate.
00:16:18 - What the heck man, I said go left.
00:16:19 - I got it.
00:16:20 - All right, we gotta work as a team guys.
00:16:24 - Oh, I love capturing them on their first fight.
00:16:26 - Yeah, they're so unorganized right now.
00:16:29 (laughing)
00:16:31 - Yeep.
00:16:33 - Woo!
00:16:34 ♪ Ninja go, ninja go ♪
00:16:36 ♪ Go ninja, go ninja, go ♪
00:16:38 (laughing)
00:16:40 - Did not think we'd be hearing that song again.
00:16:43 - Ninja rap.
00:16:43 - I love the noise.
00:16:46 - Walk softly down a tunnel.
00:16:47 (screaming)
00:16:49 - Woof.
00:16:53 (screaming)
00:16:56 - Ooh.
00:16:59 - Oh my goodness.
00:17:08 - Ooh yeah.
00:17:09 - This guy would have been great in Tokyo Drift.
00:17:12 - I'm awesome.
00:17:16 (laughing)
00:17:18 - That was by the books, really well done.
00:17:22 (cheering)
00:17:24 - I feel like really connected to them.
00:17:27 - My heart feels like really connected to this.
00:17:32 - You got my scooter back, so I feel like.
00:17:34 - Donnie, you go out first,
00:17:35 you're the most inviting and friendly.
00:17:37 - Yes you are.
00:17:38 - Leo is so nervous, it's cute.
00:17:40 - Voice work is incredible.
00:17:42 - I don't think all the good animals are taken.
00:17:44 - Sharks, there's wolves up for grabs.
00:17:47 - Wow, the costumes are.
00:17:48 - Street sharks.
00:17:49 - How do you get this on and off?
00:17:51 - That's your skin, that's your skin.
00:17:53 (laughing)
00:17:54 - Can we explain this over some pizza?
00:17:57 - How you guys feel about pepperoni?
00:17:58 - Yes, pepperoni, mushrooms and red onions for me.
00:18:01 What about you guys?
00:18:02 - Just cheese.
00:18:04 - Simple man.
00:18:05 - I want a pizza with another pizza on top of the pizza.
00:18:07 - Mutant baby turtles to turtle men guys.
00:18:11 - Turtle boys actually.
00:18:12 - I would say teens, you know?
00:18:14 - I would say cool turtle men.
00:18:15 - Teenagers, teenagers.
00:18:17 - Call them the thing.
00:18:18 - Do it.
00:18:19 - You guys are TMNT.
00:18:21 (laughing)
00:18:23 - I write for my school paper.
00:18:25 - Really?
00:18:26 I assume you'd wanna be on camera
00:18:28 'cause you have like a very camera ready look.
00:18:31 - Oh my, smooth my guy.
00:18:34 - The police have been talking about implementing
00:18:36 this curfew if they don't find him soon, right?
00:18:37 I'm trying to, you know, help bring in the justice
00:18:40 so everyone could chill out or whatever, but this.
00:18:43 - Do you think there are more people like you?
00:18:47 - No, people who will accept us.
00:18:49 - Oh my guy.
00:18:52 - No, no, absolutely not.
00:18:55 - But they can monetize you.
00:18:56 - Yeah.
00:18:57 - I'll airdrop you my contact and if you ever feel like
00:19:00 you wanna come out into the world or whatever,
00:19:03 just let me know.
00:19:04 - Like how she's at least respectful about it.
00:19:06 - Yeah, I love her whole personality, man.
00:19:08 - Iowa debris.
00:19:09 - Give me that contact.
00:19:10 - Yes, give me that contact.
00:19:12 - Pizza Hut, yes.
00:19:15 - I think there was a giant commercial about Pizza Hut
00:19:17 before the VHS of the first film, if I remember correctly.
00:19:21 - I hope you're fucking right, Andy.
00:19:22 - I hope I'm wrong and I get called out.
00:19:26 - Well, there was Domino's in the first movie,
00:19:28 Roy's Pizza in the second movie.
00:19:30 - What if everyone saw us as heroes?
00:19:32 - I mean, look.
00:19:32 (upbeat music)
00:19:35 - We use our ninjas.
00:19:36 - Oh, interesting.
00:19:37 - We'll drag them up to City Hall,
00:19:39 shove them on the steps.
00:19:40 - Whoa.
00:19:41 - Nice.
00:19:42 - I love this animation.
00:19:43 - The super fly.
00:19:45 - Classic.
00:19:45 - Old school.
00:19:47 - Slap it up best, man.
00:19:48 - Hey, those toitos are.
00:19:50 - Oh, they want to become heroes to be accepted.
00:19:53 - Super Mario.
00:19:53 - I was gonna say, it looks like the Monopoly guy.
00:19:57 - It's like Coke and Avengers Endgame.
00:19:59 Sure, he's a giant, terrifying green monster,
00:20:01 but everyone knows he saved them,
00:20:03 so they're taking selfies with him in a diner.
00:20:05 - Yeah.
00:20:06 - Hello, mostly improvised that scene.
00:20:08 - I know, he's good on his feet.
00:20:09 (laughing)
00:20:13 - I love how much they consume media.
00:20:15 - Yeah.
00:20:16 - What about that though?
00:20:17 - He doesn't really need to know about it.
00:20:19 - Yeah, no one does.
00:20:21 - You help us find Super Fly.
00:20:23 We bring him to justice.
00:20:24 You document it all.
00:20:26 You promise on canceled,
00:20:27 and we get accepted by the world as heroes.
00:20:29 - Wow, yes.
00:20:30 - April human.
00:20:31 (laughing)
00:20:33 - They have ears.
00:20:34 Okay, perfect, yes.
00:20:36 - How about we meet tonight, 8 p.m. Eastman High.
00:20:38 Everyone will be gone.
00:20:40 - Eastman High for Kevin Eastman.
00:20:43 (upbeat music)
00:20:45 - Love how alive the city is too.
00:20:50 - Old thing.
00:20:51 - I like how they're capturing the underlying sadness
00:20:53 behind the turtles very well too.
00:20:56 - Yeah.
00:20:56 - Welcome to Eastman High.
00:21:00 - Eastman.
00:21:01 - The relationship forming with April is great.
00:21:04 I think it's wonderful.
00:21:06 - Is this living up to your dreams?
00:21:09 - No, it's even better.
00:21:11 Attack on Titan.
00:21:12 - Attack on Titan.
00:21:13 - They give me more than anyone ever has.
00:21:16 - Guys, look.
00:21:17 Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God.
00:21:19 - Is that Midoriya?
00:21:19 - Yeah, Epic Club.
00:21:21 - Do we not have last names?
00:21:22 - It's okay, I'll just break it up.
00:21:24 Michael, Angelo.
00:21:27 Perfecto.
00:21:28 - That makes you Leo Nardo.
00:21:29 - Nardo.
00:21:30 - Wolfman's got nards.
00:21:33 - I understood that reference.
00:21:35 - Monster squad.
00:21:37 - Hey, well, at least I'm not puke girl.
00:21:40 That is a bad.
00:21:41 - Is that April's locker room?
00:21:44 - I thought I could read the morning announcements
00:21:47 and you know, it didn't go so well.
00:21:49 - Oh no.
00:21:49 - Oh no.
00:21:50 - Ooh, the on camera.
00:21:55 - The anxiety.
00:21:57 - Anxiety made me feel like I was gonna explode
00:21:59 and so, well.
00:22:02 - You didn't.
00:22:03 - I did.
00:22:04 ♪ Feel the rain on your skin ♪
00:22:07 - Oh my God, no.
00:22:08 - The secret of the ooze.
00:22:10 - I was about to say that.
00:22:12 You beat me to it.
00:22:13 ♪ The lights are on ♪
00:22:15 ♪ Put yourself in a sweet spot ♪
00:22:19 - Remix.
00:22:19 - I was gonna say,
00:22:23 that's not something anyone forgets in high school.
00:22:25 - I hope we get to see the turtles do improv.
00:22:27 - All the personalities feel so relatable.
00:22:30 - And distinct.
00:22:31 - Superfly seems to be building something.
00:22:33 I mean, we're talking brew, mega mind type stuff.
00:22:36 - Mega mind.
00:22:37 - Mega mind, yeah.
00:22:38 - That's awesome.
00:22:39 - Nobody's ever seen his face.
00:22:40 - Why?
00:22:41 - Because he kills everyone who does.
00:22:43 - Ooh.
00:22:44 - Maybe he's trying to rescue his brother and sisters?
00:22:46 - And their crew.
00:22:47 - Sure, Sharon, bald Bronson, Toupee Tom, and normal Nate.
00:22:51 Let's start chasing him down.
00:22:52 - Wish my high school had a dark room.
00:22:56 - Yeah.
00:22:57 - Great montage.
00:23:03 - Nice.
00:23:08 - Great intercutting.
00:23:09 - Oh, hell yes.
00:23:10 - Yes, let's get an old boy reference.
00:23:13 - Hell yeah.
00:23:15 - Love that they're actually using their weapons,
00:23:21 calling you out, secret of the use.
00:23:23 - So cool with the intercutting.
00:23:24 - Oh, he's on to them.
00:23:35 - I mean, they're just straight up vigilantes.
00:23:37 They're not doing any ninja shit.
00:23:38 - Nope.
00:23:39 - Teenage vigilante ninja vigilantes.
00:23:43 - I like the way you work it.
00:23:46 - No diggity.
00:23:47 - Nope.
00:23:48 - Fresh drips.
00:23:50 - God, man, these match cuts are fricking awesome.
00:23:55 - Yeah.
00:23:56 - He knows when to finalize stuff.
00:23:59 - Flying elbow.
00:24:03 - Ooh.
00:24:04 - Superman.
00:24:05 - I love how Ralph's teenage rage is like
00:24:08 a fun bloodlust of a teenager.
00:24:10 - My guy stole this radioactive storage unit,
00:24:14 but Superfly, he-
00:24:15 - I just love how even the chest hair looks like
00:24:17 just wrought on.
00:24:18 - Ripples.
00:24:19 - Yeah.
00:24:21 - The deal with Superfly is tonight, under the bridge.
00:24:24 We give him his unit and he leaves us alone.
00:24:28 - Under the bridge, da-da.
00:24:29 - The villainous menace really does remind me
00:24:31 of like Kingpin from Spider-Verse.
00:24:34 Just the tone of it that it emits.
00:24:35 - Hey, I'm a gangster.
00:24:36 I got my puff and my Timbs.
00:24:38 I need my bacon egg and cheese too.
00:24:40 You got the good Superfly?
00:24:41 - Bacon egg and cheese, bacon egg and cheese.
00:24:44 - Cheese and cheese.
00:24:45 - What the heck am I playing?
00:24:46 (laughing)
00:24:49 - We are science.
00:24:51 - We are science.
00:24:52 - Yerk, yerk.
00:24:53 - Yerk.
00:24:54 - Yert, yert.
00:24:57 - Uh-oh.
00:24:57 - Dad.
00:24:58 - Text from dad.
00:24:59 - I love how they say dad and not master splinter.
00:25:02 Like it hits home a lot more.
00:25:03 - Surprise.
00:25:04 (cheering)
00:25:06 - You want to be in the human world?
00:25:08 And I found you human clothes.
00:25:10 - What the?
00:25:10 - I'm mad, how did that even?
00:25:12 - Those aren't ours.
00:25:13 (laughing)
00:25:15 - I think I maybe found a way to make you happy.
00:25:18 I brought the human world to you.
00:25:20 Look.
00:25:21 - Aw.
00:25:22 (laughing)
00:25:24 - All the grises.
00:25:25 (laughing)
00:25:27 - What are you doing up there?
00:25:28 Don't lie, tell me.
00:25:29 Is someone trying to milk you?
00:25:32 - Do you need help?
00:25:33 Anything you need, I'm here.
00:25:35 We're just running errands.
00:25:37 - I hope in the post credit scene they're getting milked.
00:25:39 - Yes.
00:25:40 (laughing)
00:25:40 - Be disappointed if they don't.
00:25:42 - All right, well hey, thanks for the surprise party.
00:25:45 - Yep, appreciate it dad.
00:25:46 We will be leaving.
00:25:47 - Goodbye.
00:25:48 - No, no.
00:25:49 - Aw.
00:25:50 - I hope in the finale, splinter suffers from cardiac arrest
00:25:54 and they just weren't there for any of it.
00:25:56 - Yeah.
00:25:57 (dramatic music)
00:25:58 - Feels like Mad Max.
00:25:59 (dramatic music)
00:26:01 - Yeah, where's the doof warrior?
00:26:03 - All right guys, there's two cars and a motorcycle.
00:26:05 It's like 10 dudes tops.
00:26:07 - This is just dragging them back into that car
00:26:09 on the ground.
00:26:10 - Speed bump rocks, isn't he?
00:26:11 - Is it?
00:26:12 - Oh yeah.
00:26:13 Super slappy-o.

00:26:26 - There he is.
00:26:28 My man.
00:26:29 - We're here to find you.
00:26:30 - I can't believe there are other mutants like us.
00:26:33 - Oh.
00:26:34 - This is so good.
00:26:35 - 15 years ago, right?
00:26:37 Some sludge was dumped in the sewer
00:26:39 and y'all came from that.
00:26:40 - Well, we prefer the term ooze, but yeah.
00:26:42 - Just like when the professor explained that to them
00:26:44 in the second Turtles movie.
00:26:45 - That same ooze made me.
00:26:47 My dad, Baxter Stockman,
00:26:49 he's the one who dumped the ooze down the drain, baby.
00:26:52 So technically we cousins.
00:26:55 - Ice cube?
00:26:55 - Yeah, it's ice cube.
00:26:57 - This is B-Bob and that's Rocksteady.
00:26:59 - Hey, what you looking at, bros?
00:27:01 - Yeah, bro, what you looking at?
00:27:02 - Right here, we got Wingnut.
00:27:03 - Hi, Wingwave.
00:27:04 - We got Wraithlake.
00:27:06 - Wraithlake.
00:27:07 - This is Leatherhead.
00:27:11 - Oh, good night, fellas.
00:27:12 - Genghis Frog.
00:27:13 That's Scumbug.
00:27:18 He only speaks Burmese.
00:27:20 - Scumbug.
00:27:20 - That's Mondo Gecko.
00:27:23 - Hey, what's up, bros?
00:27:25 - I like your vibe.
00:27:27 - Digging your vibe.
00:27:28 - I like your vibe.
00:27:29 - I ship them.
00:27:31 - Do you recognize that voice?
00:27:32 He's in Avengers, ain't you?
00:27:33 - Slap it up, best man.
00:27:35 - Oh, Paul Rudd.
00:27:36 - What are you doing?
00:27:38 - We gonna chat.
00:27:40 Let's go somewhere fun.
00:27:41 - Yeah.
00:27:44 - Arcade.
00:27:44 - I think it's such a great flip.
00:27:46 - Yeah.
00:27:47 - Please tell me they're gonna play Turtles in time.
00:27:49 That'd be amazing.
00:27:50 - They're supposed to be versus fighting each other
00:27:52 and it's turning into bonding.
00:27:54 - I mean, they can relate to each other.
00:27:57 They've all come from the same thing.
00:27:59 - So when they're trying to find community among people
00:28:02 and finding community in a whole other place.
00:28:03 - Yeah, it makes sense.
00:28:05 - Yo, check this.
00:28:06 (imitating car engine)
00:28:09 - Whoa, yeah.
00:28:11 - Oh, scumbug.
00:28:12 - Maybe you could finish explaining
00:28:14 like exactly where you came from
00:28:16 and what you want and stuff.
00:28:18 - Oh, easy.
00:28:19 Acceptance.
00:28:20 - They want the same thing.
00:28:22 - My earliest memory in the world is my dad telling me
00:28:27 that he never was accepted.
00:28:30 He just wanted a family, man.
00:28:32 - Oh, this whole story is about acceptance.
00:28:34 - Yeah.
00:28:35 - But then, that's when the people he worked for
00:28:37 sent the ops through.
00:28:38 They took it from him.
00:28:40 - The ops.
00:28:41 - I rescued my little baby brother and sister.
00:28:44 And since I was the oldest, you know, I had to raise them.
00:28:46 - He did a great job.
00:28:47 - He did.
00:28:48 - Damn.
00:28:49 - It's like a splinter in himself.
00:28:50 - It's like real life in some cases.
00:28:52 - Maybe they just ain't all bad.
00:28:53 We went out, we hit the town and it didn't go well.
00:28:57 - I love how personal they're making this.
00:28:59 And now it's like a reflection of the turtles.
00:29:01 It's so good.
00:29:02 - He wouldn't stop chasing us.
00:29:03 He wanted to kill us.
00:29:04 - Oh my God, that's what happened to us.
00:29:06 - Baseball bat?
00:29:07 - Is it Casey?
00:29:08 - No, Casey's a hockey stick.
00:29:09 - Yeah.
00:29:10 (laughing)
00:29:11 - I beat that fool.
00:29:12 Damn, I touched that chin.
00:29:14 Molly whopped him.
00:29:15 Whop, whop, to an inch of his life.
00:29:17 Whop, whop, and then.
00:29:19 - That is a great expression.
00:29:21 - To kill all the humans and let the mutants rule the earth.
00:29:25 - What if I built a machine to enact my plan?
00:29:29 - Damn, I get where he's coming from though.
00:29:33 - Then we gonna launch it into the atmosphere
00:29:36 and watch it vaporize.
00:29:37 - Turn everyone into the lizard.
00:29:40 I was just thinking that.
00:29:42 - And we become the dominant species on earth.
00:29:45 - That's bad.
00:29:46 - They would get their acceptance,
00:29:47 the turtles that they want.
00:29:49 - We wish there was another way to feel safe and happy,
00:29:51 but people's, they got to go.
00:29:54 (laughing)
00:29:56 - I got this.
00:29:58 I can complete my device and acceptance will be ours.
00:30:03 - Dominance will be yours.
00:30:07 - You stopping them now?
00:30:08 Or are you gonna make me film you supplying an evil villain
00:30:11 with the last piece of his horrible puzzle?
00:30:14 You're gonna stop him?
00:30:15 You're gonna stop him?
00:30:16 - Yeah.
00:30:17 - Oh, you can finally have family and friends.
00:30:19 - What if we're not into the plan?
00:30:20 - I agree, what if we don't like it?
00:30:21 - And that right there, piss me off.
00:30:24 - Oh, that's not real acceptance.
00:30:28 - We'll drive the van with the storage unit
00:30:30 and you lead the way.
00:30:31 - So mind the wing nut, right?
00:30:33 Ride with the tortoise.
00:30:36 - Yeah, you're smart.
00:30:38 - Interesting, Bebop and Rocksteady are just animals too.
00:30:40 Like they didn't, they weren't first humans.
00:30:43 I think that's kind of the case with a lot of them.
00:30:48 - Not my Bebop and Rocksteady.
00:30:49 - Even Superfly is Baxter Stockman, right?
00:30:51 - Yeah.
00:30:52 - Yeah, I changed that here too.
00:30:54 - It's go time, attack these fools.
00:30:56 - We need like a long and narrow device
00:30:58 that's small enough to get under the seat,
00:31:00 but strong enough to press the pedal.
00:31:01 - You mean a stick?
00:31:02 - I got it.
00:31:03 - A bow would work, yeah.
00:31:05 Bow staff.
00:31:06 (singing)
00:31:08 - I like how he's doing it, like a pole stick.
00:31:14 - Yeah.
00:31:18 - Karaoke's always fun.
00:31:19 - Damn.
00:31:22 - It's like wanted.
00:31:29 - Yeah.
00:31:30 - Oh yeah, good call.
00:31:32 - Oh no.
00:31:37 - Remix.
00:31:41 - Oh, can they convert this into their turtle van?
00:31:43 - Oh, probably.
00:31:45 - Gotta get the nunchucks on the turtle van now.
00:31:47 - Don't worry guys, I got this.
00:31:50 - Oh no.
00:31:51 - Skapok.
00:31:53 - Do it.
00:31:57 - Now or never dude, give us some advice.
00:32:02 - Oh no.
00:32:03 - Yikes, oh boy.
00:32:04 - Six in the morning, police at my door.
00:32:07 (laughing)
00:32:09 - Damn, he never did learn to mind your surroundings.
00:32:17 - I understood that reference.
00:32:18 - From Superman, right?
00:32:19 - Yeah.
00:32:20 - Superman begins.
00:32:21 - Don't give pressure my guy.
00:32:25 - Whoa.
00:32:26 - Jeez.
00:32:33 - Maybe that won't be the turtle van.
00:32:35 - And the good thing is they know the location.
00:32:38 - Oh no, Jesus.
00:32:42 - No.
00:32:45 - Hey, it's the same guy from the beginning.
00:32:47 - He's got a grudge.
00:32:48 - Oh, they had a tracking, remember they said
00:32:50 they put tracking units on everything?
00:32:52 - April, help.
00:32:54 - Oh, abandoned by humans.
00:32:58 - Oof.
00:33:01 - Now you know April's gonna bust them out.
00:33:03 - Nah, she's out of the movie.
00:33:04 - April ain't gonna do shit.
00:33:06 She's gonna turn into Megan Fox.
00:33:08 - Yes.
00:33:09 - And then leave.
00:33:10 - I've been looking for you for a long, long time.
00:33:15 - I don't know what you want from us
00:33:17 or why you talk so scary.
00:33:18 There's a fly monster.
00:33:21 - I'm gonna do the talking.
00:33:24 - She kinda has Krang's colors.
00:33:25 - I am Cynthia Ultron.
00:33:27 - I was thinking April's colors.
00:33:28 - April's color, yeah.
00:33:29 - Ultron.
00:33:30 - I will use you to create a stable mutagen,
00:33:34 an army of super soldiers.
00:33:37 - She's pretty bad herself.
00:33:38 - Whoop them up.
00:33:39 - Whoop them up.
00:33:40 - The kicking machine.
00:33:41 - Nope, there it is.

00:34:00 - I am April, I have a piece.
00:34:02 I'm friends with your sons.
00:34:04 And right now, they're in trouble.
00:34:06 - Splinter's gonna get in the action.
00:34:09 - Yeah.
00:34:10 - He's gonna go kick some ass.
00:34:10 - Nah, he's gonna just stay there and let them be tortured.
00:34:12 - I think it's really great how
00:34:15 they're really utilizing Jackie Chan.
00:34:17 It tends to be like an animated property.
00:34:19 He has a couple lines that are so underserved
00:34:22 and his actual character here.
00:34:24 - Guess we could sing?
00:34:25 - Yeah, we could do some of the songs for you.
00:34:26 - Yeah, I'm down.

00:34:53 I just hear from my boys.

00:34:56 They're in so much trouble right now.
00:34:57 - Oh, is that so, Ratatouille?
00:34:59 - I was thinking Ratatouille too.
00:35:01 Oh, God.
00:35:02 - Yeah.
00:35:06 - It's on.
00:35:07 - You don't mess with my sons.
00:35:09 - Yeah.
00:35:09 - You just stabbed him in the face.
00:35:12 - Oh, it's like an actual plasma.
00:35:18 - Whoa.
00:35:20 - You're finding your calling.
00:35:23 - I love how it turns into a Jackie Chan fight.
00:35:31 - Yeah, totally.
00:35:33 I wonder if he had input on the choreography.
00:35:34 - I'm sure he did.
00:35:39 - Great shot.
00:35:40 - No!
00:35:42 No!
00:35:44 - Yeah.
00:35:46 - Oh, hell yeah.
00:35:49 - All the weapons.
00:35:51 Nice.
00:35:52 - Oh, that's awesome.
00:35:56 - He's using all their weapons.
00:35:58 That's amazing.
00:35:59 - Nice.
00:36:04 - Yeah.
00:36:06 - Let's get some nunchuck action.
00:36:08 - And somebody else got hit in the nuts, not the wielder.
00:36:12 - That was great.
00:36:13 - That was so satisfying.
00:36:14 - Great splinter moment.
00:36:15 - Loved it.
00:36:15 - How did you find us?
00:36:16 - I'd be a pretty big piece of crap
00:36:20 if I didn't at least try to get your dad to come help you.
00:36:23 - Aw.
00:36:24 - It's great.
00:36:27 Eleven, Hopper, and our four boys.
00:36:29 - Yeah.
00:36:30 - Get on those bikes, kids.
00:36:34 - There's only one way for you to be safe and happy,
00:36:37 and that's listen to me.
00:36:39 Let's go.
00:36:41 - Music's hitting deep right now.
00:36:43 - Just the all is lost moment.
00:36:44 Dart and I the soul.
00:36:45 - Seeing you guys make so many mistakes
00:36:48 just to get people to like you
00:36:49 made me realize I was definitely doing this
00:36:52 for the wrong reason.
00:36:53 - Hey.
00:36:54 - Ouch.
00:36:54 - Hey, sometimes you never learn.
00:36:56 Okay?
00:36:57 Do this channel for so many years.
00:36:59 - Sometimes that's life.
00:37:01 - And then all I see is one or two comments
00:37:02 that it becomes the goal to get those two people to like me.
00:37:07 - Acceptance at any cost.
00:37:09 - What is it about humans that you love so much?
00:37:13 - If we kill them, we are no better than they are.
00:37:16 - I refuse to accept that you all are cool
00:37:19 with brutally killing all of them.
00:37:20 - No, no, Superfly's gonna stay constant.
00:37:23 - Some of you guys are allies sometimes, you know?
00:37:26 - You can come live with us, we accept you.
00:37:27 - Yes, plenty of room.
00:37:29 - Kinda don't wanna murder everyone on Earth.
00:37:31 - That Superfly's definitely not changing.
00:37:34 - Kill them fools.
00:37:35 - No, we don't wanna do this.
00:37:37 - We just didn't know that there was any other alternative,
00:37:39 but we see that there is.
00:37:41 Let's just stop and vibe.
00:37:43 - Uh.
00:37:44 - Right.
00:37:45 - If you wanna stop this machine,
00:37:47 you got to go through me.
00:37:49 - Oh no.
00:37:51 - Ice Cube's doing a great job.
00:37:52 - Yeah, everybody, man, this was really well cast.
00:37:55 - Sky Beam?
00:37:59 - Just gonna say that reminds more of
00:38:01 Mr. Freeze's Ice Gun, Batman and Robin.
00:38:03 - I think he's the reason, Rick.
00:38:05 - Are we gonna do something about it?
00:38:07 (roaring)
00:38:09 - Damn, it's so weird to see Rocksteady and Bebop
00:38:11 on the good team.
00:38:12 - Get him, Rock!
00:38:13 - Jump in there, Bebop, back your man up.
00:38:17 - Whoa.
00:38:20 - No!
00:38:21 (upbeat music)
00:38:24 - Ah!
00:38:26 - Everyone just attack at once.
00:38:29 (screaming)
00:38:32 - Whoa.
00:38:34 - Hmm.
00:38:35 - For you to feel safe and happy,
00:38:37 and that's if you listen to me.
00:38:38 - The error of my ways.
00:38:42 - Yeah.
00:38:43 - We both hate humans.
00:38:45 I'm just not a punk about it like you.
00:38:48 - Don't you say that.
00:38:50 (screaming)
00:38:51 - Oh man.
00:38:52 - Whoa.
00:38:54 - Ah.
00:39:00 - We're gonna get crushed to death.
00:39:04 (roaring)
00:39:06 - Will it?
00:39:07 - I think.
00:39:08 - Kaiju fly.
00:39:10 - Yeah, the opposite.
00:39:12 - At the Lazarus pit?
00:39:13 - Ah.
00:39:17 - Jurassic world dominion.
00:39:19 - It's more Godzilla.
00:39:21 - Sure.
00:39:22 - Oh God.
00:39:27 - Wowee.
00:39:28 (roaring)
00:39:32 - Whoa.
00:39:34 - I love how you can feel the weight of it.
00:39:36 Just struggling to get up.
00:39:38 - Yeah.
00:39:39 - Whoa.
00:39:43 - Wow.
00:39:44 - They really Cronenberged him.
00:39:47 - Ah.
00:39:51 - Wow.
00:39:52 - That is horrifying, I love it.
00:39:55 - I don't want to be like Superfly.
00:39:57 I want you to be happy.
00:39:59 Even though I don't like humans,
00:40:01 I want them to like you.
00:40:03 - Aw.
00:40:03 - Aw.
00:40:04 - We're gonna take him down.
00:40:05 We're gonna film it.
00:40:07 We're gonna show it to the world.
00:40:08 And the world will love you and accept you.
00:40:11 And the world will chant, "Turtles, turtles, turtles!"
00:40:14 - Aw.
00:40:15 - What happened to the whole stop Superfly thing?
00:40:19 We not doing that or what's up?
00:40:21 - So much has changed since we last spoke.
00:40:23 - I love when they're heroes
00:40:25 for stopping the problem they helped create.
00:40:27 - Yeah.
00:40:29 - Of that trope.
00:40:31 - Well, I actually might have something.
00:40:34 - Oh, right, the anti-mutagen gun.
00:40:37 - It's a COVID parallel.
00:40:39 - Let's go.
00:40:42 - Best leader ever, Leonardo.
00:40:44 - Nice.
00:40:48 - Teaming up.
00:40:49 - It's like a whole superhero team.
00:40:51 - Cool.
00:40:55 - Nice.
00:40:56 - Yeah.
00:40:57 - Nice on Neil.
00:40:58 - The hero shot, puke.
00:41:00 - Blech.
00:41:01 - You got this right here.
00:41:03 - All right, close one eye.
00:41:04 I heard that L.
00:41:05 - Turtle, turtle, turtle.
00:41:06 - Don't screw this up.
00:41:08 - I mean, come on.
00:41:11 It's not really gonna do anything.
00:41:12 It's just one point.
00:41:15 - What the hell?
00:41:16 - We're good, right?
00:41:17 - One little horse.
00:41:21 I don't need that horse.
00:41:22 It looks like y'all gonna die now.
00:41:28 - You gotta go inside his mouth and shoot him.
00:41:30 - Yeah, you gotta fill his belly up with the stuff.
00:41:33 - Damn.
00:41:35 - Love the explosions.
00:41:38 - I think we lost him.
00:41:39 - Ow.
00:41:42 - Oh man, I love this dread heavy music.
00:41:50 It's like a drowning bass.
00:41:51 - Monstrous mutants are rampaging
00:41:54 through downtown New York.
00:41:55 The only question is, do we capture them
00:41:57 for experimentation or kill them on sight?
00:42:00 - Oh God.
00:42:01 - Oh Jesus.
00:42:02 - Mutants are attacking the city.
00:42:04 - A rash of monsters in New York is taking over town.
00:42:06 - Them, not the big super fly?
00:42:08 - There will be a military response.
00:42:10 - Oh, that's really sad.
00:42:11 - Is this the world you wanna protect?
00:42:13 - You gotta protect it, even if it doesn't understand.
00:42:16 - They think we're monsters.
00:42:18 - I hope this takes a different ending
00:42:19 and they just start slaughtering humans.
00:42:21 - You know what, we were wrong.
00:42:23 - I know we only wanted to be heroes to be accepted,
00:42:27 but even though it looks like we'll never be accepted,
00:42:30 I still think we should try to be heroes.
00:42:32 - What?
00:42:33 - I mean, yeah guys, it's a real hero right there.
00:42:38 - I'm sorry, I shouldn't have protested that.
00:42:42 - Attack on Titan.
00:42:45 Giant monsters attack and they have one weakness,
00:42:48 the backs of their necks.
00:42:49 - Mm-hmm.
00:42:50 - The flaw hole is exactly that.
00:42:53 - There it is.
00:42:55 - Attack on Titan is the only manga I read.
00:42:57 - It's time to go loud.
00:42:58 - Loud?
00:42:59 - Real loud.
00:43:00 - Run!
00:43:02 - Yeah!
00:43:03 - The van! - There's the van!
00:43:04 - Yeah!
00:43:04 - The first time in your life.
00:43:07 - Being a good leader.
00:43:08 - I'm lame.
00:43:09 - Yeah, she sounded like a leader.
00:43:10 - Actually was a, yeah, literally agreeing.
00:43:13 - Dear Lord, this helmet was a good investment.
00:43:18 (laughing)
00:43:20 - Yeah, if not for that helmet,
00:43:21 she would have perished very early on in the film.
00:43:24 - Oh, she could change the narrative.
00:43:26 - Jerk.
00:43:27 (screaming)
00:43:28 - Keep rolling.
00:43:29 - Don't you, she's on camera.
00:43:31 - April O'Neil here.
00:43:32 - And.
00:43:33 - This movie's about facing your fears.
00:43:36 - Swallow it.
00:43:37 - April O'Neil here, reporting live
00:43:41 with new and confirmed information.
00:43:43 A fly monster is attacking the city.
00:43:45 - You just need to find something bigger
00:43:46 than yourself to fight for.
00:43:47 - They would definitely just let you
00:43:49 do the news to a random teenager.
00:43:51 - Against the monster in an attempt to save New York.
00:43:54 - The giant monster's bad,
00:43:56 but the mutants you see here are in fact good.
00:43:58 (belching)
00:43:59 (laughing)
00:44:00 - It's okay.
00:44:01 - Dad, do you speak the same language as scumbag?
00:44:06 - We actually have a lot in common.
00:44:08 - This guy's really attracted to her.
00:44:10 - Oh my God, he found love.
00:44:12 Slash fic.
00:44:14 - I'm the king of New York.
00:44:16 (dramatic music)
00:44:19 - The fours, playing fours really helped Donnie
00:44:24 with his driving.
00:44:25 - Yeah, he'll direct the fours movie.
00:44:28 - Ah!
00:44:32 - Not the van!
00:44:35 - Wow, this is really bad.
00:44:40 - Splinter.
00:44:41 - Splinter.
00:44:42 - He's so old.
00:44:45 (screaming)
00:44:49 - You know, now that we're actually about to die,
00:44:53 there's nothing I'd rather be looking at.
00:44:55 - Aw.
00:44:56 - Aw.
00:44:57 - Love the details on Donnie's frame.
00:44:59 - Come on, save your boys.
00:45:03 - Damn, I love how gritty this shit's getting.
00:45:05 (dramatic music)
00:45:08 - Is that, help him.
00:45:10 - Who's this guy?
00:45:12 - He's gonna help.
00:45:13 - Hey, are you okay?
00:45:14 Do you need help?
00:45:16 - Someone's actually helping?
00:45:18 - I must get this to my boys.
00:45:20 - I got this.
00:45:23 - Let's go, New Yorkers.
00:45:25 - Hey, the humans, they're helping us.
00:45:26 - Really?
00:45:27 - No, they ain't.
00:45:28 - Y'all got a common enemy now.
00:45:31 - You don't know New York delivery men.
00:45:32 You do not know New York delivery men.
00:45:34 - Yeah.
00:45:35 - They have a common enemy.
00:45:36 This is just like Watchmen now.
00:45:38 So unite the world in peace through this tragedy.
00:45:44 - This is very well coordinated, I love it.
00:45:47 - The taxi cab guy too.
00:45:53 - That kick flip.
00:45:54 - Nice grind.
00:45:55 - Everyone is so in sync.
00:46:01 - Whoa.
00:46:05 - Nice gecko.
00:46:07 - So close.
00:46:11 - Teamwork makes the dream work.
00:46:18 - Dude, you left the size in there.
00:46:22 - Oh shit.
00:46:23 - God, this would have been so cool in 3D.
00:46:27 - Yes, nice.
00:46:33 - Whoa, got him.
00:46:34 - Hell yeah.
00:46:36 - Nah.
00:46:39 - Cowabunga.
00:46:40 - Yeah.
00:46:41 - Oh, he's done.
00:46:46 - Oh, the horses.
00:46:51 - Cute titles.
00:46:53 - Ninjas.
00:46:56 - My ninjas.
00:46:59 - Oh yeah.
00:47:07 - You too, Philip.
00:47:10 - Now they're one big happy family.
00:47:14 - Not sad at all that they had to kill their big brother
00:47:19 who raised them.
00:47:21 - Hey baby.
00:47:22 - Aw, getting ready for school.
00:47:24 - That's a very different direction for the turtles.
00:47:27 - There's sewers all over the city.
00:47:29 Just hop in the sewer.
00:47:30 You can come home anytime.
00:47:31 - Oh, it's better than the subway.
00:47:33 - Teenage Mutant Ninja High School.
00:47:35 - I want to see that.
00:47:36 - I'm proud of you boys.
00:47:38 I love you.
00:47:40 - We love you.
00:47:41 - Love you too.
00:47:42 - And I love you too.
00:47:43 - Yeah, do it in Sargos.
00:47:47 (upbeat music)
00:47:50 - Oh.
00:47:52 - Wow.
00:47:55 - How are we going to know who's who?
00:47:56 (dramatic music)
00:47:59 (cheering)
00:48:01 - Thanks for saving us guys.
00:48:04 - What a cool mirroring from the beginning to the end.
00:48:09 - April O'Hero.
00:48:14 - Yeah.
00:48:15 - Boss lady.
00:48:19 - Well done.
00:48:21 - Fantastic.
00:48:22 - Terrific.
00:48:23 - That was fantastic, man.
00:48:25 - Definitely a different direction,
00:48:26 but oh, that was the animated series.
00:48:28 That was awesome.
00:48:29 - David Fincher directed this.
00:48:31 - Hey, hello.
00:48:32 It's Donnie and I have found my people.
00:48:36 - The IT club.
00:48:39 - Welcome to my Australian shoe store.
00:48:41 - Do you have any Nikes?
00:48:44 - No, but I do have the Australian version.
00:48:47 - Christ.
00:48:48 - Leo, how many times, Lansky, Lansky.
00:48:52 - Oh, yep, sorry about that.
00:48:53 - Who is TCRI?
00:48:55 - I can relate to that.
00:48:56 - Their offices abandoned after the mutant attack.
00:49:00 Gone without a trace.
00:49:01 - But we will find them.
00:49:04 - I mean, do you maybe want to?
00:49:07 - I'd love to, Leo.
00:49:09 It looks like you were gonna puke there.
00:49:11 - So the way I do it.
00:49:13 - Puke for?
00:49:14 - Oh my God, they're going to prom?
00:49:16 - Tuxedo T-shirt.
00:49:18 - This is such a different direction.
00:49:20 I love it.
00:49:21 - No, you guys should get together.
00:49:22 - There it is.
00:49:23 - What?
00:49:24 - Is that Baxter?
00:49:26 Who is it?
00:49:27 - Oh no.
00:49:27 - I'm gonna guess.
00:49:30 - Could there be Trump?
00:49:31 - Capturing them, on the other hand,
00:49:34 might prove difficult.
00:49:36 - There is one option.
00:49:37 - Shredder?
00:49:38 - The Shredder.
00:49:40 - Yeah!
00:49:41 (cheering)
00:49:43 - I'm so excited.
00:49:44 - I cannot wait to see that.
00:49:46 - Oh my God.
00:49:48 - Oh.
00:49:49 - Okay, this definitely sounds like a Trent Reznor beat.
00:49:53 - You were wrong, it's not Jake Johnson.
00:49:56 But I did think it sounded like him though.
00:49:59 - And they're all like actual kids.
00:50:00 - Yeah, yeah, the turtles are for sure.
00:50:03 - Alrighty, alrighty.
00:50:05 We got 20 minutes to chat.
00:50:09 I'm gonna fill up this entire time, everyone.
00:50:12 - You go for it.
00:50:13 - Enjoy.
00:50:14 - You go first, Andrew.
00:50:15 - I really enjoyed it.
00:50:16 Like I said, it was a different take on what--
00:50:18 - There's plenty.
00:50:19 John, I--
00:50:20 (laughing)
00:50:21 - No, no, go ahead, you guys are doing--
00:50:23 - No, no, it was a different take
00:50:25 on what we're used to seeing.
00:50:27 I love the whole theme of acceptance.
00:50:29 It was something I think we all relate to.
00:50:31 I mean, I'm still trying to gain acceptance in this world.
00:50:35 - Good luck being you.
00:50:36 - Everyone hates me.
00:50:38 Everyone says I'm a reference machine
00:50:40 and still doesn't like me.
00:50:41 - You'll never be accepted.
00:50:42 - Yeah, but--
00:50:43 - You'll never be accepted.
00:50:44 - But also too, I mean, we know also,
00:50:47 just coming back even to Splinter,
00:50:49 yes, he's always been a father figure
00:50:51 and their sensei and all that, but like--
00:50:52 - You'll never be accepted.
00:50:54 - It really hit a lot deeper on this because,
00:50:57 I mean, just little things in this,
00:50:59 like yes, again, he always felt like a father figure
00:51:01 in the movies and the TV show,
00:51:03 but little things like them actually calling him dad
00:51:06 and stuff like that, and then like Leo wanting
00:51:08 to have a romantic interest and then that with April.
00:51:11 I mean, there were just so many little things
00:51:13 that I just was like getting so invested in
00:51:15 and I love the animation.
00:51:18 And I mean, there were other things too I wasn't expecting.
00:51:21 Like there was like levels of horror in this too
00:51:23 with like the super fly played by Ice Cube
00:51:25 very brilliantly, I mean, I had like just eating people
00:51:28 and stuff like that.
00:51:29 And then the whole plan itself was actually really horrific
00:51:32 if you think about what he was trying to do
00:51:34 with the whole amazing Spider-Man lizard,
00:51:36 turning everyone into mutants, like that was really scary.
00:51:40 But I love the whole idea too of the turtles,
00:51:42 like having this, the juxtaposition of,
00:51:45 okay, look, we want everyone to accept us,
00:51:47 but like, and then also Splinter has been teaching us
00:51:50 for forever like that, this world is like,
00:51:54 there's a lot of evil people out here
00:51:56 who will not accept us and we can turn this whole world
00:51:58 into mutants kind of thing and people will now,
00:52:01 or mutants now will accept us,
00:52:02 we'll be in a world amongst ourselves.
00:52:05 And they make the hard decision,
00:52:07 they make the hero decision, like, no, that's not right.
00:52:09 And I thought that was really deep.
00:52:10 And there were a lot of different other things I like,
00:52:12 but I don't wanna hog up all the space
00:52:14 so you guys go ahead.
00:52:15 - Well, you know, it's about who you wanna be accepted by
00:52:21 and what you wanna be accepted for.
00:52:23 And I think that was very--
00:52:24 - This guy's never getting accepted.
00:52:26 - Never, see, that's the thing is,
00:52:27 I'm surprised you enjoyed this at all
00:52:29 because I don't think it'll be ever possible
00:52:31 for you to relate.
00:52:32 - Yeah, you were like the turtles in this movie,
00:52:35 but only the first, like, everything before the finale.
00:52:40 - It's like that news report they had
00:52:42 where they were like surrounded by fire
00:52:45 and they looked really menacing.
00:52:45 - That's where you're identifying with it ends right there.
00:52:49 After that, you can't relate.
00:52:51 - Then you're like, what is this?
00:52:52 Everyone's celebrating, I don't understand at all.
00:52:54 - Love how you guys know me so well.
00:52:56 - It's okay, Andrew.
00:52:57 It's 'cause we don't accept you easily.
00:52:58 - We don't accept you.
00:52:59 We judge you.
00:53:00 - We judge.
00:53:01 - Our judgment is a correct assessment.
00:53:03 John, please, I'm sorry.
00:53:05 I interrupted you because this nuisance was talking.
00:53:08 - It's okay, it's fine.
00:53:10 I appreciate you apologizing on his behalf.
00:53:14 No, I love this from front to back.
00:53:16 We'll probably have a lot of the similar things to say,
00:53:18 but yeah, this moved with like an effortlessness of pace.
00:53:22 It was so well proportioned.
00:53:24 It had such a lovely spirit.
00:53:26 And especially in the first 10 or 15 minutes,
00:53:29 it was moving between a lot of different things,
00:53:31 but it had a really gradual and very smooth grip
00:53:35 on how to do that.
00:53:36 There are certain voices that don't get to speak very much,
00:53:39 but on the whole, the voice cast is terrific.
00:53:42 And just, yeah, I loved, loved what they did
00:53:45 with the animation here,
00:53:46 because Spider-Verse has opened up such a door
00:53:48 for what we think of when we think of
00:53:51 a computer animated movie like this.
00:53:53 And there is so much love for other styles
00:53:55 of animation out there.
00:53:56 And so this managed to encompass, to take that leap
00:54:00 that Spider-Verse perhaps presents
00:54:01 and do something kind of its own with it.
00:54:03 And to hearken, I don't have like the best lexicon
00:54:05 of Turtles comics, but having this like scuzzy
00:54:08 or more asymmetric design style
00:54:12 felt kind of like something I would look at in,
00:54:17 like an old panel from one of those.
00:54:18 It had some of that gonzo quality
00:54:20 while still being very family accessible.
00:54:22 And just, yeah, like so many lovely little choices,
00:54:26 like all those scribbly whipped pans
00:54:28 and like the halos of light that feel like just, yeah,
00:54:31 white pencil scribbles and stuff.
00:54:33 And the way they pitted everybody in a position
00:54:36 where they need some kind of acceptance,
00:54:38 but they're all approaching it
00:54:39 from different motivations and angles.
00:54:41 Like this was, I would assert that, you know,
00:54:46 with a few basic ingredients,
00:54:47 you can make a satisfying Turtles movie,
00:54:49 but they just went above and beyond on everything.
00:54:52 So yeah, this absolutely, I think,
00:54:54 deserves to be one of the top movies of the year.
00:54:56 This was so great.
00:54:57 - Andrew?
00:55:02 - You want me to continue?
00:55:03 Yes, I also like how-
00:55:05 - You might gain our acceptance if you do.
00:55:07 - I still want it.
00:55:08 (all laughing)
00:55:10 - Just throwing you off for a game.
00:55:11 All right.
00:55:12 God, what did you talk about and what did you talk about?
00:55:19 And what did I talk about?
00:55:20 All right, I guess I'll bring theories to the game here.
00:55:23 I think I laid out pretty much everything
00:55:25 that I loved about it during the reaction.
00:55:27 And then I'm sure more will come out during it.
00:55:29 I feel like this Cynthia Uhtram person,
00:55:33 my theory, here's my theory.
00:55:37 Does everyone want to hear my theory?
00:55:38 - What's your theory?
00:55:39 - What's your theory?
00:55:40 - We'll accept it automatically.
00:55:41 - I think Crane is inside of her.
00:55:44 I think she's a machine.
00:55:45 - That'd be awesome.
00:55:46 - Okay.
00:55:47 - That would be, that's a good theory, actually.
00:55:50 - Yes, that's my-
00:55:51 - I accept it.
00:55:54 - That's my theory for that.
00:55:55 And I like what they're building up for.
00:55:57 I mean, 'cause, I mean, she's Uhtram.
00:56:01 And there's something about the way she was coming.
00:56:03 Granted, everyone kind of had a strange,
00:56:06 disproportionate design to a lot of the humans
00:56:08 that looked a little bit off, not all of them,
00:56:10 but some of them did.
00:56:11 And I feel like there was something to her specific physique
00:56:15 and build that felt a little bit Android-like.
00:56:17 And something about the type of a tenor in her voice
00:56:21 that specifically sounded a bit like she was channeling
00:56:25 what we kind of associate with the voice of Crane.
00:56:28 - Sure.
00:56:29 - And that is why I wouldn't go there.
00:56:33 And I love the ominous tease that they have there
00:56:38 of Shredder at the end to give it something more personal.
00:56:41 I was surprised by this film significantly.
00:56:44 I was really enamored from it from beginning to end.
00:56:49 You know, I think out of all the Turtles movies,
00:56:51 this, I call it recency.
00:56:55 I got a little bit of criticisms of a couple of things,
00:56:58 but for the most part, I think out of all the Turtles films,
00:57:03 this might be up there as my favorite one,
00:57:08 even though there's a couple of things
00:57:09 I wish that they did do,
00:57:11 and a couple of things that didn't click as strong for me
00:57:14 as I may have hoped.
00:57:16 There's some stuff that I thought
00:57:18 the intention was very strong, and I loved the idea,
00:57:23 and there was a lot of it that I did like,
00:57:25 and then there's like other qualities to it
00:57:27 that I was like, it just didn't quite fully,
00:57:30 100% hit the mark for me.
00:57:32 It's obviously the Turtles I thought, great.
00:57:35 The camaraderie, the bonding with them was excellent.
00:57:38 Splinter, I think people would have a lot of gripe
00:57:43 with Splinter here, like for people who are like fans
00:57:46 of Ninja Turtle, because he's like such a dad.
00:57:49 He's not really like the ninja background,
00:57:51 and in fact, that's one of the things about this movie
00:57:52 that I was like, there's no real like ninja stuff in here.
00:57:57 They just straight up become like vigilantes,
00:58:00 and then they're now accepted in high school,
00:58:02 and they're accepted by the world, which I love the arc,
00:58:04 and I love the trajectory of that,
00:58:05 and we've seen so much different kinds of,
00:58:08 there's countless types of Ninja Turtle's properties
00:58:11 that I'm not exactly perturbed by that.
00:58:14 A lot of people would want it to go down
00:58:16 a specific direction that we're all sort of familiar with,
00:58:18 and there is that association of like out of the shadows
00:58:21 and whatnot.
00:58:23 However, I think this direction is very different,
00:58:25 especially when it comes to like the film medium
00:58:28 for the Ninja Turtles.
00:58:30 I think it's an excellent direction to go,
00:58:32 and just something that we haven't seen before.
00:58:34 It was kind of like when Spider-Man's identity
00:58:38 getting revealed at the end of "Far From Home."
00:58:39 Like, oh damn, what's this gonna do?
00:58:41 This is gonna be like very different.
00:58:42 - I am Iron Man.
00:58:43 - And that's a very, and I am Iron Man.
00:58:44 Like, this is a very different type of approach
00:58:47 that I really like to explore here,
00:58:51 because it really captures the heart and soul
00:58:55 of what it's like to be a teenager
00:58:58 in a wide variety of areas.
00:59:00 And it really captures like the New York spirit
00:59:03 of what I know from films,
00:59:04 and the couple of times I've been to New York.
00:59:06 (laughing)
00:59:08 - And the New York pizzas I have eaten.
00:59:10 - It captures that flair, that eccentricity,
00:59:13 and I love the concept of the Superfly family
00:59:18 and everything they represented,
00:59:19 and especially thematically for how that,
00:59:22 thematically for what that mirrors
00:59:24 with Splinter's journey,
00:59:25 thematically for what that mirrors
00:59:27 for the Turtles' journey, all that.
00:59:31 There were just times, though,
00:59:32 where I did kind of feel like it needed,
00:59:35 I think it's because there was so much heart and soul
00:59:39 and so much layers to the bonding of the Turtles,
00:59:43 and then that family was just,
00:59:46 everyone there was just kind of one note.
00:59:48 And I know it's like an animated movie,
00:59:51 it's an hour and a half,
00:59:52 but everyone was just kind of like,
00:59:54 if I were to do an impression of all of them
00:59:56 in one sentence, it'd be, "I'm the family."
00:59:58 (laughing)
00:59:59 - Yeah.
01:00:00 - "This is all of us."
01:00:02 - Well, 'cause most of their lines are just during action,
01:00:04 so they're saying action lines.
01:00:05 - Yeah, and like, they were all pretty much
01:00:08 like some variation of Mondo Gecko.
01:00:10 (laughing)
01:00:11 - Sure, totally.
01:00:12 - And I did, when, like, Superfly is such a nuanced villain
01:00:17 and I think a great villain.
01:00:22 - A tragic villain.
01:00:22 - And I thought that kind of missed it to the,
01:00:25 so I would've kind of felt a little bit more
01:00:29 of that emotional catharsis
01:00:31 if I felt that they were more real characters.
01:00:36 It was the only time when I felt like
01:00:38 celebrity voice cameos,
01:00:41 where everyone else was just like pure, perfect talent.
01:00:44 - Yeah.
01:00:45 - You know, and that felt like celebrity voice cameos.
01:00:48 Even Paul Rudd, like, I enjoy Mondo Gecko,
01:00:50 but I was like, "This is Paul Rudd," you know?
01:00:53 So, yeah, like, it's not like I didn't like them.
01:00:56 I just, I loved so, I loved the world, the aura,
01:01:00 the tone, the animation,
01:01:02 everything you guys touched on.
01:01:03 Splinter, every one of the turtles,
01:01:05 I loved it all.
01:01:07 And then the movie does take time to, you know,
01:01:09 give a good amount of screen time to this other family,
01:01:11 which is very important and integral,
01:01:13 and I love the idea of them so much.
01:01:16 And I do feel like they kind of missed
01:01:18 the emotional beat mark,
01:01:20 which I do feel is an integral part
01:01:22 when it is ending on the note of they are joining
01:01:26 to be one big cohesive,
01:01:27 one big family down in the sewers and grow together.
01:01:30 Like, it is an important aspect to the film.
01:01:33 And I did crave that.
01:01:35 So that's my one thing that I'm missing from it.
01:01:37 But other than that,
01:01:38 I do think it is like one of the best movies
01:01:40 I've seen of the year,
01:01:41 and it is really strong,
01:01:44 and it might be up there as my favorite.
01:01:46 I want to revisit the original 1990 turtle.
01:01:49 - I would say those are my two, the 1990 and this one.
01:01:52 - I want to revisit that one before I make,
01:01:54 'cause I was listening to a review
01:01:56 from Red Letter Media about it.
01:01:59 And then I was like,
01:01:59 "You know, I really don't remember this movie."
01:02:01 - It's like five when I saw it.
01:02:04 It still holds up for me.
01:02:05 I love that movie.
01:02:06 - They were showing scenes,
01:02:07 I was like, "I don't know any of this."
01:02:08 Like, I don't remember jack about it.
01:02:10 And so I know I've seen it though.
01:02:12 So I want to revisit it.
01:02:14 Not going to do a reaction, or maybe, I don't know.
01:02:16 But I want to revisit it before I make that statement.
01:02:19 But right now,
01:02:20 like I remember Secret of the Ooze very well,
01:02:22 'cause for some reason I watched it.
01:02:24 That's more kid-friendly.
01:02:25 So I watch that all the time,
01:02:26 and I watched the part three all the time.
01:02:29 So I don't want to say this is my favorite one,
01:02:33 but it's up there.
01:02:34 It's definitely up there.
01:02:35 Even though they didn't have the ninja quality.
01:02:37 It's definitely up there.
01:02:39 - Well, and I think they could have also used
01:02:41 maybe just a pinch of conflict
01:02:43 between the rest of the family
01:02:44 having to go against the guy who raised them.
01:02:46 And then afterwards, maybe mourning him a little bit.
01:02:49 - Yeah, exactly.
01:02:50 Yeah, because there was no,
01:02:52 they set up such a fascinating debate.
01:02:55 Like the second the turtles were like,
01:02:57 "Oh my God, wait a minute."
01:02:58 The story is so much about acceptance,
01:03:03 and these can be the extended family
01:03:05 where they can find the acceptance.
01:03:07 And it seemed like they had that room
01:03:10 for such an interesting conversation.
01:03:12 But because the rest of the family was just kind of
01:03:15 like one note.
01:03:18 - Yeah, I do agree the way that they got the other family
01:03:21 to flip so quickly on Superfly
01:03:24 after years of him nurturing them and being a family.
01:03:26 I'm like, "Damn, that was a quick flip."
01:03:28 Like one speech and you're done with Superfly.
01:03:30 I'm like, "Again, what Leo and the rest of the turtles
01:03:33 were saying made sense."
01:03:34 And I get why they would change their mind.
01:03:36 But I'm like, "Damn, that was quick
01:03:38 how you guys just changed your mind."
01:03:39 - And especially 'cause they established that Superfly
01:03:41 has the intelligence of Baxter Stockman
01:03:44 that he would have the emotional capacity
01:03:47 to be able to instill it.
01:03:48 But then again, he is very strong.
01:03:51 He's more imbued in hatred and revenge.
01:03:56 - Yeah, he's probably an emotionally closed off
01:03:58 father figure.
01:03:59 - Yeah, probably, I mean, because of what he's had
01:04:01 to go through.
01:04:02 And I think too, like the way that they decide ultimately,
01:04:05 like, "Oh yeah, we don't wanna do this,"
01:04:06 is amusing in the moment.
01:04:08 I appreciated it in isolation,
01:04:11 but because it's sort of nonchalant
01:04:13 and then everyone's like, "Yeah, we don't wanna do this."
01:04:15 I feel like it does kind of sap, again,
01:04:17 a potential moment for true conflict there,
01:04:20 true emotional conflict.
01:04:21 - And I know I'm probably gonna get ripped for this,
01:04:23 but whatever.
01:04:25 - But I know for sure from acceptance,
01:04:27 the least, again, I know you guys are gonna be like,
01:04:31 "Of all the things you've found to be least believable
01:04:34 in this film, a super fly growing all this."
01:04:36 I don't know about April being just allowed to be
01:04:38 like, "Do you see this?"
01:04:39 - Why you're so hung up on it?
01:04:41 Why you're so hung up on that?
01:04:43 - I just don't put pie in, okay?
01:04:45 - Half the people had fled the building.
01:04:48 Except the cameraman.
01:04:49 - Exactly.
01:04:50 I will say, well, it's because Bruce Wayne called him
01:04:53 and told him to get out of the building.
01:04:54 I will say this though, I'm glad,
01:04:56 and even though they did address it in the film,
01:04:58 that was one of my favorite moments for Leonardo
01:05:01 in terms of addressing the team
01:05:03 and having his leader moment,
01:05:05 because that's one of the things that has been,
01:05:07 especially as such a big Leonardo Stan,
01:05:10 I'm like, "God, he's such a terrible leader,
01:05:12 but I still love him."
01:05:13 I'm like, "And you addressed it like Alfred Lutzer."
01:05:18 I've kind of felt that way so many times
01:05:20 when I've watched on screen,
01:05:20 I'm like, "He's such a terrible leader."
01:05:23 But in this film, and he got his moment,
01:05:25 but I'm glad they addressed it in the film.
01:05:27 That was such a great leader moment for you.
01:05:30 But when he addressed the team,
01:05:32 he was coordinating on what they needed to do
01:05:34 and he gave the great speech,
01:05:36 but it was really well earned.
01:05:38 - Yeah, it didn't feel like, "Oh, here's the moment."
01:05:40 It just feels like it was naturally.
01:05:42 - Yeah, and I think Jackie Chan deserves it.
01:05:45 I mean, again, all the cast was really good,
01:05:47 other than I know the point you made
01:05:49 about the celebrity cameo and stuff,
01:05:51 but all the turtles, A, it was April, fantastic.
01:05:54 - Oh my God, yeah, April was incredible.
01:05:55 - She was fantastic.
01:05:56 I love what Jackie Chan did as Splinter.
01:05:59 And again, like you said,
01:06:00 the different approach they did with Splinter
01:06:03 in terms of, 'cause from what we got,
01:06:04 I remember in the films, he was,
01:06:06 was it a Mata Yoshi's rat?
01:06:10 And then that's how he learned how to do it.
01:06:11 - It made me just stern wise sense.
01:06:13 - Yeah, exactly.
01:06:14 And then I love too, the way he was fighting,
01:06:17 they're really choreographing his fights
01:06:20 according to how Jackie Chan would fight in real life too.
01:06:23 It was really like kind of meta in itself as well.
01:06:26 But I just, again, I really loved Kevin Clash
01:06:30 in the first two films.
01:06:31 And then I really liked Mako in the film
01:06:33 that John and I reacted to.
01:06:35 - TMNT?
01:06:36 - Yeah, Jackie Chan just really like,
01:06:38 I just really felt the camaraderie he had with his children.
01:06:41 Just it was so endearing and so cute and so charming.
01:06:45 - This was the most emotional I've ever felt
01:06:47 towards any, towards the turtles and Splinter especially.
01:06:50 Like I thought the heart just felt so genuine.
01:06:54 I cared so much.
01:06:55 And I was, when I realized that they were like,
01:06:59 oh, this is their first fight they're gonna have.
01:07:01 I was really rooting for them.
01:07:02 I'm like, damn, I've never like rooted so much
01:07:04 for these guys on an emotional journey before,
01:07:07 or physical one.
01:07:08 Like I really, really care about them as like kids,
01:07:13 and I've never had that for them.
01:07:15 Like I've always liked them.
01:07:16 And of course I root for them.
01:07:17 I just, not to this extent, not to this level.
01:07:19 - You don't find yourself like identifying
01:07:21 quite as heavily as you do here.
01:07:22 - Yeah, yeah.
01:07:23 I thought everyone, they made very, in April too,
01:07:26 very, very relatable.
01:07:27 And like the way they modernized the friendship
01:07:32 and how that went down and the way their camaraderie formed.
01:07:36 I was like, this is just like believable.
01:07:38 - I'm just super grateful April was wearing that helmet
01:07:42 at the beginning,
01:07:43 'cause this film would have been super short.
01:07:44 - Yeah, yeah.
01:07:46 - Teenage Mutant Ninja Murderers.
01:07:48 - Great music too, as we've kept pointing out.
01:07:51 - Yeah.
01:07:52 - And Atticus.
01:07:53 - Great cinematography.
01:07:54 - I can't wait, and I can't wait for the sequel,
01:07:56 like for that possible theory.
01:07:58 And then obviously we get the great Shredder.
01:08:00 So.
01:08:01 - I think it's great that they saved Shredder.
01:08:03 - Yeah.
01:08:03 - No, I mean, we've seen Shredder done plenty of times.
01:08:06 So, I mean, I think-
01:08:08 - It's like they're building up like a Joker in Dark Knight.
01:08:10 - Yeah, exactly.
01:08:11 Like in Batman Begins with the Joker card here at the end.
01:08:14 - Like, oh, Batman's the hero of Gotham,
01:08:17 and then now we got Joker.
01:08:18 - Yeah.
01:08:19 - Yeah, and then now we're doing that here
01:08:20 where the turtles are accepted and loved,
01:08:22 and now the Shredder's gonna have to.
01:08:25 Because yeah, you gotta find a way to,
01:08:27 I mean, there's gotta be a way to manipulate,
01:08:30 'cause the part of it is like,
01:08:31 oh, Bebop and Rock City are in here good,
01:08:33 are they doing something here where Bebop,
01:08:35 'cause I mean, the big association is Bebop
01:08:36 and Rock City work for Shredder.
01:08:38 So is it gonna somehow-
01:08:40 - He's gonna come break up the family.
01:08:41 - Yeah, he's gotta find some sinister way
01:08:43 to get in there psychologically to them.
01:08:45 I feel like there's a way to like really dark it up,
01:08:47 because what I love too is how gritty
01:08:49 the finale was getting.
01:08:51 Like, oh, this is getting really grim right now.
01:08:52 - Yeah. - And I like that.
01:08:54 I like when the, I've never,
01:08:56 I can't recall seeing that.
01:08:58 It was kind of disturbing when Superfly is cracking their,
01:09:01 when their shells are cracking.
01:09:03 - Yeah. - Yeah.
01:09:03 - I was like, oh. - It was terrifying.
01:09:04 - You know, yeah.
01:09:05 - Ooh.
01:09:06 - That was- - Yeah, I felt that.
01:09:07 - Yeah, that was kind of disturbing.
01:09:08 - Yeah, and it had a good conscientious sense
01:09:12 for when to borrow, like you were like,
01:09:14 oh, this is kind of like a Magneto plan,
01:09:15 and it's kind of like this movie or that movie.
01:09:17 Like they borrowed from other movies
01:09:19 in very conscientious ways to the point where it's like,
01:09:22 oh, cool, I can clearly see what you're doing,
01:09:24 but also it kind of reads like a reference
01:09:26 or something like that, and it makes sense.
01:09:28 It feels fresh in this world.
01:09:30 - Yeah, I thought the arcs of everyone were fantastic.
01:09:33 You're right about the leadership points.
01:09:35 Love Splinter's arc.
01:09:36 I love them learning so much from like watching television.
01:09:39 That's something that I especially identify with growing up
01:09:43 and not really knowing how to be.
01:09:44 I would often emulate or mirror personalities
01:09:47 I would see in movies and shows.
01:09:49 And I'm like, wow, I just really identified
01:09:52 with them this time.
01:09:53 - Yeah.
01:09:54 - It was really cool.
01:09:55 It was a really cool experience.
01:09:56 - As I explained to you in the TMNT 2007,
01:09:59 at the end in the review,
01:10:00 the ultimate meta thing for me is I learned
01:10:02 how to do mouth-to-mouth CPR,
01:10:03 which is what helped me save my mother's life
01:10:07 right after I watched the third film.
01:10:09 So I learned a lot from these films.
01:10:11 - It's crazy.
01:10:12 - Which again, I can really relate
01:10:15 to how they're learning from that,
01:10:17 'cause I learned from watching them.
01:10:18 So I get it.
01:10:19 - They know what they're doing, man.
01:10:20 - Yeah.
01:10:21 - It's good stuff.
01:10:22 It's good stuff.
01:10:23 - It's good shaz.
01:10:24 - But guys, hey, I thank you guys so much for being here.
01:10:29 Appreciate all the love.
01:10:32 Appreciate all the time.
01:10:33 Andrew, thank you for being here.
01:10:34 - Thank you for accepting, or not accepting me.
01:10:36 - Dropping the references.
01:10:37 It's okay.
01:10:38 I kind of accept you now.
01:10:39 And hey, let's end this with a patron of the day shout out.
01:10:44 You know who I accept?
01:10:46 Eric Horstman.
01:10:48 You know why I accept Eric Horstman?
01:10:50 'Cause on my actual birthday,
01:10:52 he's the only one who made an Instagram post about me
01:10:55 from the patrons here in the shout out list.
01:10:58 - Eric.
01:10:59 - Only one.
01:11:00 - Well done, buddy.
01:11:01 - He didn't.
01:11:02 - Accepted for life.
01:11:03 - He didn't.
01:11:04 But you did.
01:11:05 - We're jerks.
01:11:06 - We're both unaccepted now.
01:11:08 - I accept you, my friend,
01:11:09 and it is one of my life missions to make it to Atlanta
01:11:12 and then be able to hang out with you, buddy.
01:11:15 Still have the real rejects tattooed on there.
01:11:17 Isn't that crazy?
01:11:18 - Oh my God, that's awesome.
01:11:18 - I love you, man.
01:11:19 And just know that if there's anyone here at the patron
01:11:23 that I accept, it's you.
01:11:25 Everyone else has still got a while to go, but you.
01:11:27 - Everyone's got a lot of Instagram posts next year.
01:11:28 - I've got the most accepting in this heart right now, buddy.
01:11:32 I love the hell out of you.
01:11:34 I give you a big smooch on the lips.
01:11:37 (laughing)
01:11:38 Give you a big old hug, you little.
01:11:41 - Eat your meatballs.
01:11:43 - Gaba ghoul.
01:11:44 - Swallow your spaghetti.
01:11:47 (laughing)
01:11:49 - Give me that cream sauce that Alfredo Eric Horstman.
01:11:52 - This is what they say at CinnaPons.
01:11:55 It's to the T.
01:11:56 Fraud.
01:12:00 (laughing)
01:12:01 - Fraud.
01:12:02 (upbeat music)
01:12:05 (upbeat music)
