If you have ever been a Ninja Turtles fan you need to see this. You need this like you need oxygen, like... like..
Just watch it. Serious fan wank and they brought back some of the original voice actors for it. It's amazing.
For those who don't know what the hell I'm talking about its about the '88 turtles being tossed into the '03 universe. Pure unadulterated win.

Just finished watching it.....AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I missed the first 10 minutes because I forgot to program my DVR but got up in time to record the rest. LOVED IT!!!
I want to get the original cartoons on DVD. At least the first episodes before things got silly and toned down the violence. And I would like to get the new Turtles before the stupid Fast Foward season.

I was 3 when the show aired in the 80's so I don't actually have any memories about the show, just loving it and playing with all the awesome toys. Remember the pizza launcher? You could kill someone with the pizza disks provided you didn't lose them first!
I "found" all of it, I couldn't even get through the first season. The series in '03 ruined me I think.
Also, Fast Forward is so much crap flies won't land on it.
No! >_< I ended up only seeing the last part of the whole thing. Looking for a download or a stream right now myself.
As I was watching the movie I was thinking, "where the hell are Toka and Razar?", then all of a sudden they appeared. It made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
Seriously, this movie was so awesome nothing can ruin my mood for the rest of the week.

It was too bad they didn't get the original Shredder to do the voice. Uncle Phil!

I had that! I got the one with the plastic pizzas before they changed em to crappy foam disks. I disassembled mine and used rubber bands around the spinning things to make them shoot even harder with the added friction. I remember getting a belting and it taken away for a month when I shot my sister with it and gave her a bunch of bruises....on her face. :D

Yup! He was. That just made Uncle Phil so much more awesome. He was also a Klingon on Enterprise.

How awesome is it that Bebop and Rocksteady ended up saving the Universe!
Also loved the nod to the comics at the very end.

I finally watched it and yeah, it was really cool!
My daughter has been watching all of the original 80s shows and she is halfway through season 3, so I have seen and heard a LOT of old Turtles for the last 2 months. I don't think any of the old voices were really used, except the old Splinter and maybe Shredder. 80s Shredder in Turtles forever sounded like someone trying to sound like Uncle Phil though more than actually sounding like he used to. Maybe old Phil is just out of sync with doing the voice now days. it has been a long time.
Krang might have actually been the old voice too but he sounded a bit off as well.
I didn't think any of the old Turtles sounded like they did in the old show though. Sounded like sub par attempts at best.
That's all gravy and all, but my only problem with Turtles Forever was that they made the 80s show turtles just stupid silly bitches. They were silly back then but not cowardly idiots ALL constantly obsessed with pizza who walked around in broad daylight regularly.

I need to watch the old episodes. I remember them starting pretty serious but then getting silly and toning down the violence.

A lot of the older voice actors were used, but their voices have aged with them. Think of Frank Welker, the voice of Megatron and dozens of other transformers as well as Fred and Scooby and pretty much everything else. He doesn't sound the same at all.

What voice did Frank Welker do?
