For those who don't keep up on such things, 2009 is the 25th anniversary of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise. There's been all kinds of celebratory stuff going on, from re-prints of the old comics, special storylines in the new comics, and even the movies getting some fancy Blu-Ray special editions.
And now, the cartoons are celebrating.
Coming soon to your favourite DVD emporium is the direct-to-video animated film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles Forever. Thanks to some multiple earths style hi-jinks, this film features the current day animated Ninja Turtles teaming up with the 1980s animated Ninja Turtles! A clip just surfaced online.
My only complaint? It sure doesn't sound like the original 1980s voice cast. Sounds like they got the current voice cast to impersonate the original voice cast. But still, seeing those original character designs, takes me back to my misspent youth.
No word yet on when it hits DVD, but it will air on the CW network on Saturday morning, November 15.
And speaking of straight-to-DVD movies, a surprising announcement out of the WB/DC direct-to-DVD movie camp.
You know Superman/Batman: Public Enemies that I've been raving about all month?
It's getting a sequel! It is officially the first of the WB/DC DTV films that's getting a direct sequel.
No word yet on when Superman/Batman 2 will be hitting store shelves, or which classic Superman/Batman team-up they'll use for a basis. If I had to guess? It'll come out next year some time.
