00:00 I grew up watching the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,

00:02 and the teenage part was always the most underexplored part.

00:05 I'd always thought it would be really interesting to explore them in that way,

00:09 especially because, from my understanding,

00:11 every version of them has been performed by adults.

00:15 Within 15 seconds of watching the movie, the audience is like,

00:19 "They're teenage boys."

00:20 No, no, no!

00:21 I was freaking out.

00:25 It's crazy.

00:26 It was a dream come true.

00:27 It was so incredible.

00:28 Why wouldn't you want to be a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle?

00:30 Leo's the one always trying to keep the brothers on track.

00:33 The kid who sees himself as the coach of the team,

00:35 even though no one else does.

00:36 Let's go. I'm Leo.

00:38 Mikey, he's the best.

00:40 His dance moves are better.

00:41 His weapon is the best.

00:42 Hey, I'm Michelangelo.

00:44 Perfecto.

00:45 Raphael is aggressive, but he's very loyal to his brothers,

00:48 and he's got a good heart.

00:49 I dream about fighting every night.

00:51 You've got a rage problem, right?

00:52 It's not a problem!

00:54 Donatello is very smart.

00:55 He's very techie and calculates every single move he does.

00:58 Don't worry, guys. I got this.

01:00 Me and all the Turtle boys, we got real close.

01:04 They made sure that all four turtles were filming together.

01:07 Let's have four people at once talking over each other.

01:10 Hi!

01:11 Hi!

01:12 Hi, guys!

01:13 It was like so much more alive.

01:16 Okay, we got it.

01:17 We got it.

01:18 We improvised a lot of the movie.

01:20 Just them actually being themselves

01:22 and going at each other.

01:24 Stop this!

01:25 That's what you like? You eat that?

01:26 Oh, my God, gross!

01:27 All the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are teenagers,

01:29 but we have adults telling you how to be teenagers.

01:31 No, they just let us be teenagers.

01:32 Hey, hey, hey, hey!

01:34 They'd be like, "What did you just say? Riz?

01:35 Use that in the movie. Explain it to me, and then let's use it."

01:37 The fact that they're laughing makes me think

01:39 I shouldn't say that.

01:41 It's pretty sick.

01:42 One, two, three!

01:44 Cowabunga!

01:46 Everyone knows who the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are.

01:49 I'm awesome.

01:50 Every single character, someone can relate to.

01:52 We gangsta!

01:53 We outsa!

01:54 The action and the villains.

01:56 Whoa!

01:57 It's funny and it's cool and they fight things.

01:59 It's awesome. Go watch it.
