So I'm watch the first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle (heroes in a half shell, turtle power!) and I have never noticed how much it has in common with Star Wars, Darth Vader in particular. It also helps that I did just watch a part of a Star Wars. Which one? Ummm...six? Which really is the third one. Return of the Jedi.
Anyway. Here are the obvious commonalities: They both have creepy voices. They both have messed up faces, Shredders is scratched up from Splinter and Darth Vader has that harmonica thing on his face. They both have told someone they are their father. Darth with Luke, a durs and Shredder told the gang of hooligans that he was their father.
Another common theme? The Force. Now the Force (yes capitalized) in TMNT is nothing like the Force in Star Wars. They can't move shit with their minds but Shredder has talked about it. Or was it Splinter? Or should I say Sppppllllllliiiiinnnntttteeeerrrr per Raphael.
Hehehehe oh this movie. It is just so amazing! And the second one is good as well.
Ok. Honestly. Shredder was talking and he sounds almost exactly like Darth.
Damnit I want to see the footage of when Splinter was still small and he's ninjaing it up in his cage and OH! Here it is! I knew it was coming up.
Oooooohhhh! Little Splinter is so cute!
Shredder. He took the 80's style to a whole new level. As if shoulder pads weren't enough, you add razors to it. The jacket is also very Michael Jackson-esque.
I think I've gone on enough about the Ninja Turtles.
