Wow you could not be MORE WRONG about the TMNT trilogy! Only the third film is lackluster in any way. The movies brilliantly translate the dark, moody yet comedic TMNT comics to the screen and the success at box office and video release dispute your claims most definitely! Besides that this 90s kid has shown the beloved 90s classics to my young children and their friends repeatedly to much praise and rave reviews! Cowabunga !!
