I guess we could be thankful vanilla ice is nowhere near this. the only reason he was in tmnt 2 was because someone thought it needed a 'next big thing'. as if four mutated turtles battling a giant walking cheese grater with mutants wasn't enough...
speaking of odd casting, what does everyone think of EGB?
At the time, folks thought it was tremendously PC in terms of casting. but, once you got past that, where you able to enjoy the show? that also tried to go a little more for the scare factor. hence extreme in the name.
there where some episodes I liked more than others. The Irish episode where the mayor got kidnapped by a leprechaun . the Ghostmaker episode, where their spirits got ejected by possessing ghosts. on the whole, it felt like ghostbusters for the most part. The only thing I could have done without was Garret being in a wheel chair. in the real world he'd get killed on day one in that job. Also, upgrading the equipment. The design was lackluster for the most part. thrower was OK, but pack not so much. and the reason for upgrading the packs was forgotten past the first episode. they even brought back the old equipment when janine went on a rescue mission.
but I think it was a valiant effort to try to revitalize the franchise. all the characters where LIKEABLE (minus when the OGB's came in and they went the standard 'conflict' route for when an old team meets a alternate team).....I'd like to see a new series done by Aykroyd and Reitman that follows the events of the second movie, personally. even better if they can get everyone but murray back voicing. one would think that would be easier than doing a new movie
