Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin is being adapted as an R-rated film, and we'll tell you why it may be the ultimate TMNT movie.
Four decades ago, Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird unleashed their independent comic book series, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles , and took the industry by storm. Eastman and Laird’s Mirage Studios pulled off a feat that few other comic book companies in the 1980s were able to match. The success of the comic allowed the TMNT to cross over into an animated series in 1987, which only made the Turtles more popular.
Related To bring everyone up to speed, we’re going to tell you why The Last Ronin could be the best TMNT movie yet. The Last Ronin gets back to the TMNT’s roots Non-comic book readers would probably be shocked by how violent the early TMNT comics were. Keep in mind that Eastman and Laird weren’t trying to market the comic to young children when they created it. All of the things that watered down the Turtles’ harder edges came later during the first animated series and beyond.
That may have made it easier to sell TMNT toys to kids, but it made for some dull action. If this film can deliver some great R-rated action, it could help draw in the fans who outgrew the franchise a long time ago. The Last Ronin is already being pushed as the next evolution If there was only a Last Ronin movie, then it might not be the game changer that the franchise needs. However, there are already signs that Nickelodeon has embraced the potential of The Last Ronin by licensing action figures, statues, and collectibles. But the biggest indication of Nickelodeon’s support beyond the new movie is that there are also plans for a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin video game.
