Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Film

  • The special effects of the first movie arguably make the entire thing one long Moment of Awesome, but what stands out the most are the fights between the Turtles and the Foot which are energetic and imaginative. The fact that they pulled this off with four of the principal performers in 100lb costumes and nearly blind makes it all the more impressive.
  • Casey Jones telling off the junior members of the Foot after claiming that they're a "family."
  • Splinter having the Shredder at his complete mercy with a simple flick of the wrist.
  • Michelangelo's nunchaku duel with the Foot Clan member.
  • Leonardo actually scoring a hit on the Shredder.
  • The rooftop fight, for its energy and Awesome Music.
  • Leo gets another one in TMNT after being knocked into a glass case full of giant ancient blades by one of the stone warriors. The scene cuts to him standing up, with no less than five of the swords on the hilts on his back while he's wielding two of them. "Come to daddy."
