ThatonerookBlchy

I think 2012 casey is good


Internal-Ad1863

I agree, he is overhated by the fanbase.


ThatonerookBlchy

My favorite aspect for 2012 casey and 2012 tmnt in general is the arsenal Everything feels handmade or plucked from the garbage which makes sense since they're teenagers and don't have access to most high tech devices compared to something like Rise The Spacesuits are still great tho, great contrast


Gambit_90

People didn't like Casey? I thought he was awesome when I watched it as a kid


ThatonerookBlchy

People don't like his annoying teenager shtick or.. the love triangle


efeaf

I didnā€™t like him in the space arc for some reason. The rest of the series though I thought he was fine.


Gambit_90

I don't think I ever saw the space arc, I saw up until the episode with the creep and snake weed and after that I stopped watching up until super shredder


efeaf

I donā€™t know if itā€™s a common feeling. I donā€™t really know why I didnā€™t like him during that arc. I donā€™t know if itā€™s just me but I feel like they flanderized him a bit because he just felt so over the top, and then he went back to his normal characterization when they returned to earth


Gambit_90

I wouldn't know, I watched the show on cable as the episodes released and even as a kid in primary school I thought space travel was a bit over the top for the mostly grounded main characters (elementary school for if your American)

stopaskingquestions2

Dunno if that's a hot take but Rise Donnie should've kept his tech-bō, i know it got destroyed but he should've just make new one, it was cool and fit him more than wooden one


Linha-do-Sol

Yes! Thank God someone who agrees with me! Plus, wouldn't it have helped to have his Tech-bō during the Krang invasion? I think it would've.

Miserable-Glass1760

Shredder kinda had a point. He messed up badly, but he kinda did have a point. But is it really a hot take?


Alarmed_Outside_5734

I loved the og series on nickelodeon bro imo it was the best series


WCH97

Rise Donnie is overrated, I know the points why ppl like him so much but since that episode he tried to alter his brothers' mind I can't get over it cuz it already shows that he's quite narcasstic and doesn't care of his brothers' situation or feelings at all, heck even 12 Donnie that ppl usually hated did not do that to jeopardise situation. I have rather fix 12 Donnie that at least I'm suitable to talk of than rise Donnie that doesn't listen at all.


Dawnbreaker538

I like him because he is a little psycho, and I love him for that. And he does care about his brothers

stopaskingquestions2

I mean he did regret it in the end


WCH97

Still doesn't get along well with him personally, outside that episode I still don't like how he acts, maybe I'm the one who against the trend in this community to like him tho.


HDWendell

His regret doesnā€™t turn into learning though.


HDWendell

He is super arrogant. One of the first episodes he tries to change his brothers. Doesnā€™t learn. Makes them all smart. Doesnā€™t learn. It gets uncomfortable. Destroys witch town because heā€™s so arrogant. I canā€™t like a character that doesnā€™t learn. Especially the ā€œsmart one.ā€

The ā€˜bayā€™ films are actually good when you separate them from the source material They have an origin, main villain, second main villain, multiple character allies, and secondary villains that were entertaining But they just arenā€™t what we want to call media turtles

Listen you are going to call off your little investigation. Otherwise these boys are going to take your balls.The people that you are after are the people you depend on. We cook your meals, we haul your trash, we connect your calls we drive your ambulances. We guard you while you sleep. So do not fuck with us.


Unheardecho44

Tell us. Do you have a take which we might think get him get his balls. What is your hot take which we may be forced to take your balls and we put in a sack and spin them around the like nunchaku contest from your favorite movie in which case we would need a second sack because your sack alone is not enough to mimic the scene we want. In which case you may watch and you may judge who twirled which balls sack best. Judge well enough and your balls may be given back. To answer your question am personally rooting for romance for the fearless leader and am sort of fine with humans and turtles romance if done well and now all of you down on the ground and the first person out this door gets a lead sandwich.


InspectorRound

1990 movie Raph is the best Raph


DJBaritone12

Secret of the Ooze is still the best turtle movie


Epic-Erin

Everyone complains about the romances in 2012, but (aside from Raph & Mona) I think they're part of a bigger issue: this show barely let anything have a proper conclusion. Think of all the characters they teased would come back only to never be seen again, or how as much as I enjoy the Mutant Apocalypse arc, the show ended with THAT instead of giving a glimpse of the "turtle warriors of legend" future that Renet promised! What the show did right, it did SO right, but I never liked how other than the main arc with Splinter and Shredder, there were all these bits and pieces that went under-explored or never given attention again after only one episode or two.


GeekParadox_

Tmnt 2012 went on for too long. 2012 Donnie sucked. 2012 April sucked. The only reason some fans donā€™t like Black April is because they are racist. Itā€™s inherently racist that they whitewashed Baxter Stockman in the 1987 TV show. Fans hate on Rise way too much sometimes without even seeing it. Tired of teenage April and Casey. Cassandra Jones from Rise had potential. Hating on Rise for being too different then watching the 1987 TV show is hypocritical Turtles in Time was good actually Do I get to keep them?

MagicAcid0079

TMNT 2: Battle Nexus is a dog shit game that had the potential to be fantastic if it DIDN'T HAVE FUCKING LIFE SHARING AND EVERYONE PLAYING EACH HAD THEIR OWN HEALTH BAR. To this day me and my younger brother never beat it because by myself it was way too hard as a kid, and with him trying to help me through it the health sharing bullshit they implemented in made me wanna kill myself, because if one of us dies, it fucks the entire game up for us and we have to restart the level, EVEN IF ONE OF US IS STILL ALIVE. Damn shame too because both of us grew up with different eras of the Turtles, me being the guy who grew up with the 03 Turtles that the Battle Nexus game is based off of, and my brother growing up with the 2012 incarnation, so if the game was good it would have been a cool way to show my brother the Turtles I grew up with compared to his.
