Well, another comic adapted and adapted
well. Really enjoyed today's episode and the dedication at the beginning
was a nice touch, too. Added a few touches from the movies, like the
entire hiding scene in April's apartment, right down to Mikey being spotted
and replaced quickly by a stuffed toy. Too bad Mike & Don weren't
chowing down on pork rinds. Had to laugh at Raph singing in the
shower. Was Kirby's crystal one of the crystals that have been the focus
of the last few episodes? Hmmm....could be....
Hehe! The "Crystals, why did it have to be more
crystals?" line wasn't in the original comic but because the guys dealt
with them recently, Don had to say it! Almost reminded me of, "Snakes,
why did it have to be snakes?"
Best line/comment goes to the April &
Splinter combo:
"It seems like I've gone from being a happily single woman
to the mother of 4 overnight"
"Tell me about it" (it was as much the line
as the delivery of the line)
Yeah, I thought that was classic. I noticed there was more scenes
in April's apartment compared to the comic which starts off with Raph already
in the shower, screaming about no hot water. Anyone notice even without
his mask, he still had no pupils? Creepy! Also, it ended without
Don returning upstairs to the fuming turtle, "So, what's the scoop?
You've been gone for ages--we got hot water or what?!" Instead, he
read Kirby's note in the basement and that was it! Oh, well, you
can tell I just wanted to see more of Raph in nothing but a bath
robe! >;P
Although, Don's "Makes a good club, too" was
good.
LOL! Don't you love his quick thinking?! What a genius...and
a cutie! :) That whole thing was in the comic, too, btw.
They stuck pretty damn close to it! I was very jazzed!
This is two weeks in a row that the preview
happened during the first commercial break in the Cramp Twins. I hope that
isn't going to be a trend.
I sat through the first portion of the "Cramp Twins" just to capture the
upcoming scenes for next week's ep. I also woke up at 8am to catch the
upcoming scenes for "The King" (which they showed during "Ultimate
Muscle"). It's not necessary to have, but I still like it. And I
taped today's ep just fine. :D
Another comic adaptation....Leo's solo shot. That
should confuse anyone that's not familiar with the Mirage story line at
all..."But Raph was the one thrown into the apartment"... Can't
wait!
I can't wait either! Poor Leo looked weird all beaten up,
didn't he? Were those supposed to be bruises on his face? We'll
find out next week when we see more of the battle between him, the Foot, and
the Shredder. This is going to be almost like the movie
version because it's not Christmas time. But with Leo, it's
Mirage. So movie/Mirage adaptation. Perty cool!
Raph "> (meant that I can't wait for the
episode, not that I can't wait to confuse people, although confusing people
can be fun, if done correctly)
I know what you meant, unless I also said I can't wait to confuse
people!
Cosmo: What's wrong, Pop?
Grandfather: (crying) I'm confused!
