MIDLIFE CRISIS DEATH AGING TIME FLEETING CHILDHOOD LOST GONE FOREVER COWABUNGA.
Not sure what blew my mind more: -Sam Rockwell’s tiny role as a gang member who say with total sincerity “We have a loyalty to the Shredder! We’re family!” -Kevin Clash (AKA the creator of Elmo) was the puppeteer AND voice for Splinter.-The fact that this is surprisingly good all around.Call it a three-way tie.
