Me too! It’s a favorite! Pudge and Chip are so adorable together. I was just on vacation down in the Myrtle Beach area so of course I had to put it on while we were there.

I started V once but need to finish it. It's been a running joke going on 10 years now with me and @shawnrobare.com that I will prob die before I finish the series, lol.

I really liked it too! It surprised me. I enjoy thriller movies that have that sort of "closed environment" or trap type of setting, where most of the story all takes place in a single location.

Circling back to this movie... The whole time I was watching it I kept staring at the dude who plays the main chick's boyfriend trying to recall what I know him from. It was driving me nuts. Turns out he is Jeff Yagher, the same actor who plays Jimmy Valentine in Shag (1989). 🤯

I can also remember epic playground fights over stupid shit like New Kids on the Block vs. TMNT, as NKOTB was also HUGE during this era.

Here's a trade ad that really illustrates how big Turtlemania was in 1990 leading up to the release of that first film. #1 video game #1 cartoon series #1 action toy #1 breakfast cereal #1 comic book

I think some people were expecting that first TMNT film to be more like Howard the Duck, which was full of sexual jokes and innuendo.
shezcrafti (@shezcrafti.com) reply parent
This doesn't surprise me whatsoever. TMNT was everywhere in 1990, at the height of Turtlemania. It was the butt of many jokes, tongue-in-cheek references in ad copy, sitcoms, you name it. Literally everything was competing with TMNT for views and revenue.
