Are the TMNT a negative influence? I am asking this seriously. I had long loved TMNT when I was a kid. But it is clear that TMNT has much to do with inter-dimensional creatures, humanoid reptile-like creatures, and they live underground.
The new movie had to do with demon-like creatures and an inter-dimensional portal.

think if you allow your self to ignore the munipulation then its wrong.
i hate when i hear people saying oh i cant wait for the new alice and wonderland movie.
i dont tell them that this story is used in nasa mind control programs, and i think thats wrong.

Well if you look at the TMNT as just talking ass kickin' turtles than it isn't bad at all.

I was crazy about them as a kid. But you outgrow that kind of thing at an early age.
After that, you ask yourself, "why the heck was I so crazy about turtle-men?"
And then you get even older, stumble upon the idea of reptilians and recognize that they are everywhere in childrens cartoons and entertainment.
Then things get a lil spooky.
Why were there never any 'ninja monkeys'?
Why are childrens cartoon characters always either reptiles, or birds?

Because birds are reptilian in origin as well...
That's my theory.
And yes, the TMNT have totally changed from the time we were kids...
the series is much darker now.

On an unrelated note, I owned both the first TMNT movie and the 3rd. I really liked the 3rd even though they didn't look the same as the first movie :)

I agree Metacomet, since birds came from Teyradactols. Excuse the spelling :o

Birds came from the same acestor as Archaeopteryx, Pterodactyls evolved a lot later after the avian species had broken off from the reptilian line.
Actually humans are reptilian, these are some of our ancestors.

So we aren't from Apes or had our genetics made from Apes? maybe a mix of Reptilian and Apes? lol

Accept it in your own mind as a cartoon. Then there's no problem. ;)

Thundercats had a big newt or lizard guy as one of Mumm-ra's henchmen.
And there was Snarf the lizard cat.

and all the cats, which were neither reptiles nor birds
incidentally, I assume the previous comments by the intellectual heavyweights metacomet and newworldengineer involve some sort of confusion as to whether pterodactyls were dinosaurs and the rather infantile assumption that birds evolved from pterodactyls because they can fly

pterodactyls were aerial dinosaurs, and mainstream science says birds evolved dinosaurs so there is no reason why they didn't evolve from pterodactyls, why are you on this thread anyway you made your opinion clear on your first post

Wow you're right!
Why did I never notice he was reptilian!?

Yet still surprisingly one of the most lovable (and annoying) toon characters of all time.

pterodactyls were not aerial dinosaurs
why are you on the thread? to post that bollocks? why bother to post something you can't even be bothered to spend two minutes researching?
unlike you I don't see the sole purpose of posting as arse kissing and backslapping every piece of nonsense that's posted on here
do you think thats productive?
I was originally enquiring if the laughable claim "childrens cartoon characters always either reptiles, or birds?" was a joke
Q: Why are childrens cartoon characters always either reptiles, or birds?
A: they aren't :confused:

unbelievable
what am i supposed to be looking at on that link?
Pterosaur? follow that link:
Pterosaur - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
read the second paragraph it will only take a second of your valuable time and you can then stop posting bollocks
(sic) still saying there aerial dinosaurs
yes, I think this thread is ludicrous, why not tell me why you think its not and we can have a debate?
presumably you would rather I just said what a great post I think it is and start listing the handful of childrens characters I can think of that are reptiles?

type in Pterodactyl on wiki and see what you get, and it is not my place to codemn someone elses thread, what would be the the point of debating how good a thread it is, it is just a thread there are thousands of them

I'll post it for you seeing as you are too lazy to read it:
Pterosaurs are sometimes referred to in the popular media as dinosaurs, but this is incorrect. The term "dinosaur" is properly restricted to a certain group of terrestrial reptiles with a unique upright stance (superorder Dinosauria), and therefore excludes the pterosaurs, as well as the various groups of extinct aquatic reptiles, such as ichthyosaurs, plesiosaurs, and mosasaurs.
jesus christ
I'm not talking about debating how good the thread is, I'm talking about debating the points that are being made, like "are childrens cartoon characters always either reptiles, or birds?" or "Is it bad to like TMNT? " rather than telling me that pterodactyls are dinosaurs

none the less they are still flying reptiles, there are a lot of reptiles in cartoons and media but to perfectly honest i don't see the point in debating are childrens cartoon characters always either reptiles, or birds, and don't you think the word always tends to mean often most of the time

They also really get off on dominating one another (http://www.davidicke.com/forum/showthread.php?t=88188) ... male cats love dominating female cats. Another reptilian trait.

yes, I wasn't taking it literally
I'll tell you what, you name a reptillian childrens cartoon character and I will name five that aren't, untill you run out

That's a good point, also I was walking back from the shops today and I saw a cat on a fence and as soon as it saw me, it freaked out and ran away.
Now, can the Cat see something about me because of Cats perception of 'reality' being a lot more diverse than ours? :o or was it just freaked out because they don't trust humans lol
Maybe I had a Reptilian Entity shadowing over me! ;)
And what would be the point in that? not how I plan on spending my Friday night.
the point would be to see how often childrens characters are reptiles :confused:
i'll increase to naming 10 : 1 and you can include birds ( or pterodactyls)
you dont have to do it on friday night, presumably it wont be difficult if there are a wealth to choose from, you can get metacomet to help you :)
