    OK, I just finished watching TMNT II on Showtime...

    How corny was that movie?

    Let me count the ways:

    1. Vanilla Ice in a cameo acting like a rapper (yes I said acting, was he really ever one?) and singing "Ninja Rap"

    2. The final showdown scene has a Super Shredder ready to fight the TMNT... but instead of a final climactic showdown (which is a must in all action flicks), the guy just destroys the building in which they are prepared to fight (just to show off his new power as the SUPER shredder) and the building ends up crumbling on top of him! The TMNT escape by remembering that they still are turtles and jump in the nearby lake at the last second... NO FIGHT! how lame!

    3. The language... its worse than the one line quips that AHNALD had in that Batman movie (I don't remember which one, the third perhaps?) as Mr. Freeze! Cowabunga dudes!

    4. Question: I'm not from NY, so I don't know this... but are the sewer systems above or below the subway lines? The TMNT walk through the sewers looking for a new home and fall into a hole and end up in an abandoned subway station. Is this plausible?

    5. One of the funniest unintenional comedy scenes (sorry Bill Simmons) is when the TMNT are sitting in front of a computer and looking at info in a dB... Donatello says "I can try to open the file, but if the dB is coded it could crash the system!" ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? :D Almost as bad as Phoebe's brother (from Friends) in "Boiler Room" backing up his entire hard drive on a floppy in the final scene of the movie!

    GO NINJA GO NINJA GO... GO GO GO GO! ;)

    It's a kid movie, I liked it when I was smaller. So of course when I am older it's going to seem corney. :rolleyes:

    Was someone holding a gun to your head?? I'd probably tell them to go ahead and shoot to end my misery.

    look, when you've been unemployed for 6 months b/c there's an influx of software engineer's in Austin and you only have 1.5 years of post college professional experience, you have to find something to occupy your time and keep you from offing yourself... :(

    I thought this thread was about Ninja Sauce X doing some kind of rap or being in a rap contest...lol

    Oh drapg,

    Don't subject yourself to mindless **** like TMNTII (or whatever the hell that vermin crap was). Just get you a CD collection and listen to CDs all the time like I do.

    Er...you said you were unemployed right?? Hmmm...eh, well scratch that idea.:(

    There's supposed to be a new TMNT series and possibly a movie coming out soon. John Woo is set to direct. Needless to say its probably going to be a bit more mature. One thing I know for sure, with Woo set to direct (or is it produce? I always get the two confused), the turtles are going to kick some ass and blow **** up....with lots of doves.

    Hell, I'll be fine with a Batman Beyond clone. Stupid WB, why'd the have to cancel the best damn show they had on that network... :mad: :(

    Oddly enough, I was just watching a documentary about subways yesterday. They talked about how in NY, the sewer, gas, etc... occupy about the first few feet under street level and then the subway is beneath that.

    So, to answer your question -- yes, the scenario in the movie is plausible. However, talking martial artist turtles may be somewhat less plausible. :)

    YO! it's the green machine--gonna rock the town without bein' seen
    have you ever seen a turtle Get Down?--Slammin' Jammin' to the new swing sound
    Yeah, everybody let's move--Vanilla is here with the new Jack Groove
    Gonna rock, and roll this place--With the power of the ninja turtle bass
    Iceman, ya know I'm not playin'--Devastate the show while the turtles are sayin:

    Ninja, Ninja, RAP! Ninja, Ninja, RAP!
    GO GO GO GO
    Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO; Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO!
    Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO; Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO!
    GO GO GO GO

    Lyrics, fill in the gap--Drop that bass and get the NINJA RAP
    Feel it, if you know what i mean--Give it up, hour after hour
    Cause in this life there's only one winner--You better aim good so you can hit the center
    In it to win, with a team of four--Ninja Turtles that you gotta adore it's the:

    Ninja, Ninja, RAP! Ninja, Ninja, RAP!
    GO GO GO GO
    Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO; Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO!
    Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO; Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO!
    GO GO GO GO

    Villians you better run and hide--Because one day you might not slide
    Choose your weapon but don't slip--Vanilla's in control with the flex of the mic grip
    Rockin' the crowd the way it should be rocked--With the Miami drop that you like alot
    Hittin' like a Ninja Turtle when the bass kicks in--You better check your level
    The power of the Ninja is strong--Fightin' all the crooks until they're all out cold


    Best song ever. :D When I was little, I had that entire song memorized. But over time, it all slipped from my memory. Much like the lyrics to Beck's Loser will eventually. ;)

    thanks for the info!

    for some reason, i always assumed that the subways were above the sewer system... seems more comforting to know that sewage would be transported below my feet rather than above my head while in a subway! but that's just me i guess.
