Film Paleontology.


Last night Samm and I rediscovered Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: The Secret of the Ooze, circa 1991. Oh. Man. Dontatello is a very very misunderstood turtle who has withheld his homosexual tendencies from his turtle brothers and weepy eyed mutant rat mentor for his entire existance.

Vanilla Ice had a cameo in TMNT2. His hit single, Ninja Rap, was the title song for the soundtrack. I need to find that soundtrack.

If you own this movie and have let it collect dust over the past 13 years, now is the time to dig it out and enjoy. Embrace the mutants, with all of their puppeted glory. Embrace the gigantic rodent Sensai that was just in the "wrong place at the wrong time" and never asked to be mutated and burdened with goverening four pizza munching maniacs. Last but not least, embrace Shredder, with his helmet of steel and burlap ninja suit and grunting sidekick.
