“Does anyone actually like Raphael” I take personal offense to that

I still can't believe how this guy can mix school facts with sooo much comedy

I know this is years old and you probably wont see this but Jeremy Wade caught a mutated Wels Catfish in a cooling pond for reactor #4 in Chernobyl and the analysis of its cells prove that its growth had actually been severely stunted. It was interesting because his hypothesis for going there was that the radiation created mutant giant catfish, as those were the stories being told by locals in the area.

At the start of every episode I feel like what a stupid argument . But at the end of it, I'm convinced... Way to go Matpat

Now they are gonna find people down in the sewers saying, "Film Theory said TMNT was real."

I was always somehow drawn to Raph. His “I’m so fing done with you people” sarcasm is really relatable.

The 2012 versions are me and my sisters favorite TMNT. Raph has the most hilarious anger issues, Mikey has the greatest golden moments, Donnie is just the smartest and funniest scientist who has a crush on April (unlike the newer version in 2020 in which Mikey has a crush on April and doesn't hide it) and Leo everybodys favorite leader who procrastinates all the time. Like I said the best versions!

matpat: "seriously does anyone like raphael?" me: "that's me alright"

Also, to fuel the fires of fandom. Michelangelo is the most skilled martial artist of the four turtles. Why? Because he uses two nunchucks. They are by far one of the most difficult weapons for a martial artist to learn and employ even if he or she is using only one, and he uses two like it's nothing. That's a lot of natural skill right there. He definitely isn't the most disciplined or strongest, but as a metric for raw martial arts talent, he's a genius at it. Why would I not chalk it up to hard work? Because the turtles have pretty much the same amount of time in training from the time they could walk on two legs until let's just say fourteen. We all know Mikey goofs off a lot, yet he can still master his chosen weapons. If that's not skill I don't know what is. But that's just a theory... a comment theory, thanks for reading.

Two things what I know live in the sewer Pennywise and the ninja turtles

I absolutely love Raphael. He is my all time favorite. 1. My favorite color is red and 2. I love his deadpan attitude.

"Cowa-f*cking-bunga" That is now my favorite Matpat quote.

Mom: TMNT ain't real. Matpat: *releases video* Me: HA!

Hey! Thanks for letting me know about the annotations. The vote is NOW FIXED! (All of you saw through my plan to make Leo the winner...)

I always end up liking Raphael mostly because of his anger and how he sometimes gives me Batman vibes. Also, Sais are cool weapons

it so happened that I really like Raphael! The early cartoon version showed that Ralphael was the joker turtle. But then Ralphael evolved into grumpy, loner and muscular. Weird.

Matpat: the tmnt are red eared sliders Me smiling at my Red Eared Slider: Ruby it’s time to learn ninjutsu

MatPat: (talks about crime rate dropping in new york and exposing the possibility of tmnt existence) *Tmnt would like to know your location* *area 51 has pinged your location*

Donatello has to be my all across favorite. He definitely deserved more character wise tho. Like he was never rlly fleshed out more than “does machines” so it was great in the 2018 series to see his true potential and also THE STUFF HES ABLE TO MAKE IS CRAZY

Ok so Matpat you need to do an update on past videos to see how they aged. This would be a great one.

Me: *sees crime having dropped* Also me: Wait WHAT???!

I wouldn't be surprised if I took a trip to New York, went into the sewers, and found TMNT introducing pizza to Pennywise.

The home of the turtles in the 2012's version is clearly in a train tunel, btw. They were not even subtle, there are rails outside and that entrance with small doors that can't keep anyone outside.

Me and both my parents love TMNT. My favorite is Donnie, my dad's is Raph, and my mom's is Mikey. No one in our family actually likes Leo

I stared this world thinking I can ride a butterfly when I grow up, now I have proof of giant teenage mutated turtles that somehow know karate. Nothing has changed. 😐

"I'm not claiming that the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are real." - MatPat in "Film Theory: PROOF of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in New York!"

“Cowa-f*cking-bunga.” You used it correctly! Round of applause Matthew👏👏👏 10:25

In that series, each turtle is a different species: Leonardo is a red-eared slider, Raphael a snapping turtle, Donatello a softshell turtle and Michelangelo a box turtle

Matpat: Pizza rat is why TMNT is real Me: oh my GOD HES RIGHT

Mat pat : which is your favourite turtle Me : the green one Mat pat : they're all green Me : exactly

I grew up with the 2012 version but I've seen some of the movies and other series for the 2012 version I can't really pick a favorite I like each character for a different reason Leonardo for his fighting skills and his ability to keep calm in dangerous situations Raphael because he cares a lot for his brothers and is extremely protective of them and is willing to do whatever it takes to make sure their safe from harm Donatello because of his smarts and personality in general Michaelangelo because of his goofy funny personality and his ability to stay positive and even help chear his brothers up Splinter because some of the stuff he says can be useful in real life not just specific for the show also because of how much he loves his son's and his willingness to die for them April because of her awesome powers Casey because he's hilarious and a really good friend For the other series it still stands that I like all the characters but for some seasons I might like one character more for example the 2003 series where they travel to the future and meet Casey and April's kid that season I like Mikey more because he was just so fun to watch on screen

Mat you are a god teenage mutant ninja turtles was my whole childhood and to see you making a theory on it is a dream I never knew I had untill now at 10:45 at night

“cowa f***ing bunga” yes matpat you used it right

This guy managed to make me question whether or not TMNT is real. Wow. Just wow

All my childhood dreams have come true. Thank you MatPat

Pretty sure the *second* “cowabunga” was correct. I’m 100% sure the last one was perfect.

_LEANARDO’S the leader in blue, does anything it takes to get his ninjas through._ _DONATELLO is the fellow, has a way with machines._ _RAPHEAL’S got the most attitude on the team._ _MICHELANGELO, he’s one of a kind, and you know just where to find him when it’s party time._ _Master Splinter taught them every single skill they need,_ _TO BE ONE LEAN, MEAN, GREEN, INCREDIBLE TEAM!_

I want to know if Matpat can finally use "cowabunga" properly.

This is proably the best filmtheory. It makes so muth sense!

Literally when The TMNT become friends with pennywise as neighbors

MAT PAT: Proof That TMNT is real ME: Thats another one for apocalypse bingo! 2020: Write that down! Write that down!

Matpat:there is no shame in liking the color purple. William Afton: who has summoned me!?!?

My first ever theory video and still my all time favorite theory

I am a HUGE fan of the TMNT shows and movies specifically (not the comics cuz they are too edgy and sad) and I am honestly crushing on them! I WISH THEY WERE REAL!!!!

Well... That ending was unexpected. I thought there'd be a giant turtle found from a sewer, but not that crime has dropped since the 90's...

Me: **looks at pet turtles** ...nice.

No one: Matpat:DONT BELIEVE ME CHALLENGE ACCEPTED

Turtles count it off: (1!) LEONARDO's always in control. (2!) The wise guy is MICHELANGELO. (3!) DONATELLO, he's the brains of the bunch. (4!) Count on RAPHAEL to throw the first punch!

0:04 i immediately fell in luv with this video

Mat:who really likes Raphael Me:now this is an avengers level threat

5:02 it says turtles in sewers “but they don’t consume much pizza” 😂

Can we all agree hearing matpat even if bleeped him cusing is hilarious

Mat pat: who is stupid enough to place a nuclear power plant above a New York City sewers Me: um mr burns from Simpsons?

Me: *look at thumbnail Me: “this is click bait” Me: *sees it is made by mat Me: I am mistaken

For me, this was the first video I watch MatPat and this video would hold a sentimental value to me. Thank you MatPat 😢😔

I really like Raphael as a kid, but now, I really like Donatello because he's incredibly smart in the new cartoon series.

That very last part blew my mind. Now excuse me, I need to pick up the pieces of my brain that have been blown across the room.

Was that rat the rat that in Endgame 😐

My favorite depends on the version, though it's Raph the most often. 1987 TV- Raphael All Movies- Raphael 2003 TV- Donatello 2012 TV- Raphael 2018 RiseTV- Leonardo

my favorite turtle is... actually depending on the series, it varies ROTTMNT: Raphael 1012: Donatello or Leonardo (cant choose) those are basically the only tmnt series i watch

1:56 Not so much, when you consider everyone grew up playing a game about an italian plumber trying to save a princess from a giant turtle and eats fungi in order to gain superpowers

Cowaf***ingbunga! New favourite catchphrase.

i did not even notice this was so old but still so good mat pat and his team are the best

Raph is my comfort character, you shut your mouth MatPat. 😤

When you said Cowa f*cking bunga I lost it

"Indian point is located upstream of GOTHAM" i see what you did there

At worked I asked one of my co-workers which turtle was his favorite, and his favorite happens to be Raph. Mine is Donnie (2018).

My favorite character is always donnie or mikey, but donnie in the rise show is AMAZING and ACTUALLY has character other than “the tech guy” so I love them 💜🧡

'Hello internet, welcome to Game- ha ha. It's not Game Theory it's Film Theory. Ha ha ha, that's the first time I screwed it up.' Damn it Matt you had ONE job.

my favorite is Raphael or Mickey I asked my friend and she said "the purple one" and I asked if she knew which one that was she said "Leo"

"Cowa *bleep* -ing bunga" Lol, first swear I ever heard matpat said 😂

The slightly more mature humor is pretty great. The mafia informant joke still cracks me up hahah

Me: buys turtle Me throws turtle in sewer system Me acts like I’m getting attacked

I too have difficulty in finding the right time to say cowabunga.

This is a neat video. Leo is my favorite character from the show. I hope you can do another theory about the Rise of the teenage mutant turtles show and movie about the shredder, Hamato Nimpo, krang or the prison dimension.

I’m so glad you made this video I’m such a big fan

Hard choice. Leonardo leads,Donatello does machines,Raphael is cool but crude and Michaelangello is aparty dude.

DID ANYONE ELES’S HEART STOP WHEN HE SAID THE DROP IN CRIME WAS TRUE

I think Dixie got her song idea from this vid, “one day, one day”

They live in the sewer systems under New York City. It’s just a matter of figuring out which borough.

Nintendo: *changes Zelda timeline again* MatPat: Cowa-****ing-bunga.

Raphael -Red -Not afraid to give someone a beating when they are clearly asking for it.

tbh I'd more believe that some people in a mutant turtle outfit was fighting crime before I knew that there were walking talking turtles around.

I love Raphael he is awesome and i relate to him ALOT his personality is the same as mine qwq

Maybe you should make a theory on how aerodynamic Dumbo's ears are.

Matt ... you catch a ball= no cowabunga You're throwing a ball= yes cowabunga You say it as you do something It's a battle cry

I saw it too, buddy. Just a working father trying to feed his four sons.

You only get to say cowabunga when you jump of a building.

When i saw that mutated fish i was all like..."dude!! Its fishface!!"😆👍🏻

"Which turtle is your favorite?" Me: b-but I like all of them 😢 I can't choose

Around 1:20 I had to replay a few times but une sure Mat says “TNMT” 😂

it has happened, I saw this the morning before i graduated elementary school and now i have returned to watch this before my last school graduation

I can memorize all of your theories word-for-word but I can't pass a test to save my life

8 year old Me sees Sewer Lid. Me-Hey guys, how ya doing? Tell Splinter I said Hi. (This actually happened.)

* me on my way to new York to find four turtles, a rat, and mutation* To the light of the same it calls me and no one knows how far it goes.

Loved this. They're all great

No one: Absolutely no one: Matpat: Ninja turtles are real!

HEY MATPAT THERES A GALLON OF DIET COKE IN THE APARTMENT CLOSET! "COWABUNGA" i think thats how you would use that

5:00 I read what I could of page an all I want to say is thank you Dan Blake and Tina Casey for makeing this the funniest news clipping I have ever read

Was coming back to some old mat pat vids and Michaelangelo all the way but Raphael is my man is second, don't diss him.
