Movie for sure.
agreed. My wife had never been exposed either, and really enjoyed the first movie.

Another vote for the movie.

On second thought forget about the animated series and movie and invite her to play Turtles In Time or TMNT The Arcade Game.

Lame as hell, but fine by me. She lives in what I consider a mansion, has a landscaping crew, weekly visits from her maids, has a full time nanny, but apparently doesn't have time to hire someone to do her gift giving. Mo money mo problems can take a hike.

Turtles in Time is unfortunately a no go as my SNES's player 2 port is shot and i haven't gotten around to getting another SNES. (Yes, I tried replacing the port itself, no dice.)

I could totally go with Manhattan Project on NES though. I kinda prefer it to TMNT 2.

It's hard to get her to play games with me sometimes though, so we'll probably just watch the movie. It's weird. She enjoys games, yet says she's not good at them. Yet when I got her to fire up Road Rash she did better than me, and she completely cleared through both of the Ps2 Katamari games. She's a lot better at them than she thinks she is.

Watch the first movie. Play TMNT II, III, and Turtles in Time. Skip the cartoon, it's painfully cheesy.

Got an oil change on Friday. I now have a sticker on my windshield that says, "Next recommended oil change: February 30."

Premonition!

Your gas station plays by its own rules.

A close friend of mine went to the ER for the FLU/fever, seconds ago. I hope he's made the right decision to get checked out more than I hope he's going a bit overboard by visiting the ER for a fever.

Flu season sucks.
