Quotes


Here is a list of my favorite quotes from all the areas of turtles I have seen.  The first movie, the second movie, the third movie, the cartoon, and the live action show.  Sorry I can have no comic quotes because I have never read the comics.  I have also used this page to give a brief word on the medium, be it the movies, the cartoon or the Next Mutation show.

Movie Number One

I believe this gives the best view of the turtles (other than fan fiction)  it gave a little of the darker more serious side of them.  Shamed by what they are forced to live below, but still, under it all normal teens wanting to explore, to know, wanting to be independent yet when they lost their father they were lost.  If you have not seen this movie seance you were young I really recommend rewatching it, I found it so much better this time now that I am older.  Well on to the quotes...

Raph to Casey Jones when they first met:  A Jose Canseco bat?  Tell me,  You didn't pay money for this.

Raph to Leo:  Oh, so that's the plan from out great leader huh.. just sit here on our butts. (in Aprils apartment after Splinter was taken)

Mike to the TV (when watching the tortoise and the hare):  Go!  Ah your letting him go right by ya.  ahh ninja kick the damn rabbit!

Don:  Good thing these guys aren't lumber jacks.  Mike:  No joke, the only thing safe in the woods would be the trees. (when the foot attack Aprils place)

Casey:  First its the farm that time forgot and now this. (when Casey first gets into the sewers)

Danny (hiding in the closet, the turtles have drawn there weapons):  Don't shot!  Raph:  I don't think it's loaded kid.

April:  Danny?  My God your father's going to have kittens.

Don:  Question, do you like penicillin on your pizza?

Mike:  Now at exactly what point did we loose control here? (when they are fighting the Shredder)


The Second Movie

This was once my favorite but now I think I like the first movie better.  This is still a good movie but they have started to act a little to goofy and not serious enough.  the main focus of this movie is where they came from how did the ooze make them.  Were they something special or only the by products of a accident.  "Do not confuse the specter of your origin with your present worth my son."       Quote time!

Mike (cleaning Aprils apartment):  Wax on, wax off, wax on.. (Raph covers Mike's mouth) Raph:  Mouth off.

April to Keno:  These are mine, (grabs Mike's nunchuckus from the table)  I like to do a little chucking every now and then. ( I love Mike's face during this!)

Mike looking at Raph:  Yah, all the good ones end in O. (when Splinter is introducing them to Keno)

Leo:  Ya well if she does tell him thanks for wasting our time because now instead of going out and looking for the foot and the ooze like we should we have to go out and look for him instead! (when Don is on the phone with April, and asks if she has seen Raph)

Prof.  Perry:  What did you expect they'd come out quoting Macbeth? (talking to Shredder about Tocar and Razor)

Raph:  Well ya know what they say, the bigger they are... Mike:  the more bones they brake.

Mike:  Not to criticize science or anything but wouldn't it be easier to call it... the pink one.

Leo:  Wait first we must observe the uhh ancient ritual of the duh, traditional pre fight donut. (Trying to get Tocar and Razor to eat the unmutation donut)

Leo in sing song: Why did I let you talk me into this?  Mike in sing song:  Give it a chance (talking about the donut idea)

Leo:  Ahhh Tocar and Razor how cute.  Mike:  Say we could make a fortune in the diet racket.  (after Tocar and Razor are unmutated)

Splinter:  Were you seen?  Leo:  of cores not Master Splinter we practice ninja.  Mike:  Ya the art of invisibility.  Splinter (holding out the paper with Ninja Rap on it):  Practice harder.


The Third Movie

Now this movie I thought was a big time loss,  It could have been so much better. Even worse than the script were the costumes.  What were they trying to do make them look like the cartoon?  Well here the turtles are trapped back in old Japan (where everyone speaks fluent english).  They are trying to get back home, but first they need the magic septor.  This, I believe, even thow it is the newest movie is the most dated.  This, more than the other two you need to watch for the good things, they don't just come out at you.  Here are some good quotes I found after looking for them.

Mike:  Capa?  capachino na makes me hipper.

Leo:  Ok but remember were turtles not honor guards.  Raph:  Oh, thanks Leo that would explain the large shell on my back. (as they try to sneak into the fortress)

Mike:  Ahhh pizza ( tries to take a bite of the hard as a rock pizza he made)...  frisbee also cool.

Mike:  Ooooh, he who dings the shell must pay!

Walker:  My god who is your tailor?  Mike:  Were naked.

Don:  Wow bungy jumping with out a bungy... that could be dangerous. (as Walker falls of the tower) 



 
 

Cartoon

This is how I first learned about ninja turtles, but sadly I don't remember very many quotes.  It has been a long time sense I saw the cartoon and the quotes have slipped away.  As it is I have but three

these two are from a episode where the earth is being pulled towards the sun and the turtles are trying to stop the device that is doing it.  I think it was called To hot to handle.

(They are driving the turtle van through a corn filed and loud sounds are herd outside.)
Vernon:  Now someone's shooting at us!  Raph:  those aren't gun shots, the intense heat's popping all the corn!

(Then they are standing out side and a tree bursts into flame)
Leo:  Its this intense heat the trees are starting to spontaneously combust.
(now I find it hilarious that the trees are spontaneously combusting yet they are not even sweating!)

I have no idea what cartoon this quote came from, but I remember it and like it.

Leo to Shredder:  Do you think we look that stupid?!  Raph:  No, no, no, never leave yourself open like that.


The Next Mutation Show

This is most like the third movie (only I do think the costumes are a little better).  I did not watch very many of these, and you really do have to look for the good things.  I only remember one good quote and I have no clue what show it came from.

Raph want to fight the Rank who are at the zoo but Leo does not want to go to fight them.

Raph:  Come on Leo we're just going to the zoo, pet the lamas.  If the Rank happen to be there we kick their buts.  Were going to the zoo.  Oh and bring your sword the lamas can get pretty fresh with the sword.

Or it could be  The lamas' ll be real impressed with your sword.  (if any one knows for sure tell me so I can get it right)

( As Venus walks in the door ) Raph:  You got a lotta explaining to do.
Venus:  Kiss my shell!
Raph:  ( Glaring, eyes wide ) W...what...what did you say?!
Don:  ( placing a hand on Raph's shoulder ) You've been dissed. Shinobi style.
(I would like to thank Klunk Keeper for this quote)



 
 
If anyone knows more good quotes and would like me to post them tell me ( I know there are lots I have forgotten).  I really need more from the the cartoon and the next mutation show!
