With the 1990 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie being re-released in cinemas to celebrate its 35th Anniversary, MVM takes a step outside the Marvel Universe to look at a landmark moment in the history of comic books, and a landmark moment in the history of superhero cinema! We bring you the CRAZY story of getting this movie made, and how it became the most successful independent film of all time! We explore the history of the Ninja Turtles comic books, their deep connections to the Marvel Universe, the “Black And White” comic book boom of the 1980s, how TMNT went from a throwaway gag into a billion dollar empire, how their creators changed the industry forever, and how Marvel Comics tried to buy the Ninja Turtles! Plus, we’ll pull the entire movie apart scene-by-scene and bring you TONS of comic book history and trivia about Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, Michelangelo, the noble Splinter, the evil Shredder, the awesome April O'Neil, and the badass Casey Jones!
