]]> <![CDATA[Beware Giant Radioactive Turtles of the Soviet Era]]> Quick Tip: If a super slow turtle is coming at you, don't stand there waiting for someone to break a window, just go AROUND the building.

With all that moaning is sounded like the turtle was doing more than biting her jacket. Put that tongue away! AND TAKE THE JACKET OFF YOU IDIOT!!!

I also loved how the door "fell" on the one who threw the grenade. That was a fast grenade.

This was so bad it was good. Good as in funny. Not good as in good.

I've always had a soft spot for Very Slow Scary Things like triffids, classic zombies, poisonous glaciers, or the silicates from "Island of Terror" [www.imdb.com] (must see!)
Grodd bless you, Annalee, for making my week.

Kind of like saying, "during the height of Roosevelt's World War II in the 1940s. . . "

X: The Eliminator

]]> <![CDATA[Beware Giant Radioactive Turtles of the Soviet Era]]> @Annalee Newitz: Pfftt... what any mutant turtle thinks, he wanted his pizza, he was wondering where Shredder was, and why everyone was speaking some wacky language.

The best part of this flick was the guy falling over when the grenade went off, glad to see the Russians mastered the power of the pillow fight.

]]> <![CDATA[Beware Giant Radioactive Turtles of the Soviet Era]]> @Cin: Awesome. Now if only we had somebody who could translate what the turtle was thinking.

Annalee Newitz

]]> <![CDATA[Beware Giant Radioactive Turtles of the Soviet Era]]> Translation:

-It's so huge!
::machine gun fire::
-I think it's gone
::they see the turtle::
-It's coming back
::some more gunfire::
-Don't waste ammo, it's ineffective

]]> <![CDATA[Beware Giant Radioactive Turtles of the Soviet Era]]> the title appears to imply that i need not fear radioactive turtles from other eras. i think a radioactive turtle from the 'axis of evil' era would be equally worth of my fear.
