Welcome back! 7 long years have passed since TMNT (2007) graced the big screen. Hundreds of people hard at work, scripting, planning, crafting, animating... and this is what they came up with. This week we're talking about the monstrous Michael Bay-produced series reboot from 2014 and we have a very special guest who eagle-eared listeners may recognize from podcast lore: Will Gertler, aka Will the fact checker, aka Will Nye the Science Guy.
Will has never seen a piece of Ninja Turtles media before, so we thought this was a great opportunity to introduce him to the turts in the worst way possible. As is often the case we go on many digressions throughout, including Will's love of Will Smith and the product placement in I, Robot, another celebrity encounter from Ben's past, and a discussion of Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer from the perspective of an actual scientist.
This one is lots of fun and we'll hopefully be having Will back soon for a full bonus Oppenheimer episode! Join Alex and Ben next week for the supposedly superior sequel to this reboot: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows!
