Another close of another promotion thanks to the folks over at Roadshow Films. This time, on the plate of half-shells,
TMNT. Those foot soldier beating up loving mutant ninja turtles back on the big screen and without the hand of puppets working their guise.
Running over the course of answers gets interesting only in the points of mistakes and shooting wide off the mark.
Question 1: What is the food of choice of the Ninja Turtles?
Except for the answer of cabbage soup, it was an all out pizza affair. Though talk with a standing order did spark the possibility of someone out there thinking it to be marshmallows. Glorious fluff that it is, not the answer for the prize here.
Question 2: Name the late actor who provided the voice of Splinter in the movie.
There was a hint sent out in the mailing list, mentioning the name of Mako. Or Makoto Iwamatsu for the keen. It was not left on the competition page itself, so those eagle eyes wanting to double check their Wikipedia facts already had a leg up if they were reading their newsletter.
Not everyone did, there was a shot of Kevin Clash or Peter Renaday as the voice actor. Though they may have at one stage been the voice of Splinter, they are still alive, certainly not late. A dead giveaway in the question itself as to the correct criteria.
Voldemort was clearly in jest.
Question 3: What is the name of goalie mask wearing human who helps the turtles from time to time?
Every one was clear on it being Casey Jones. Double points for throwing in his real first name, even if it is also
mentioned on the Wikipedia.
Turn out was good and fair, though these questions were sweet compared to one about the Ninja Turtles' rock concert tour and the affected status of Venus De Milo. Don't know her? Never really existed according to canon.
To those who watched it before heading out of the house a few years back, very jarring to the mythos.
