Back by Bodacious Demand. Let's Watch It Again is back! Rob Lee and Isaiah Winters revisit the 1991 childhood classic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze for its 35th anniversary. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze (1991) drops the turtles back into a messy, fun, 90s adventure: reconnecting with April and Splinter, fighting Tokka and Rahzar, and chasing the mysterious ooze that created them. It’s loud, goofy, full of practical effects, puppetry, and pure kid‑movie energy. In this episode, Rob and Isaiah mix straight-up nostalgia with clear-eyed takes. No fluff — just the moments we loved, the parts that aged weirdly, and why this movie still matters to us. Topics include: Pizza Propaganda Why the sequel went full kid-friendly and how that shapes the film Tokka, Rahzar, and Keno: what works and what doesn’t Vanilla Ice’s “Go Ninja Go Ninja Go” set piece and the Super Shredder finale Practical effects, puppetry, and 90s slime — what still lands Isaiah's NYC Rat Story VHS memories, the 35th anniversary screening vibe (Georgetown), and where it fit in 1991 pop culture Rob and Isaiah’s favorite scenes and quick takes Wanna listen to Rob make another funny? Check out the review of the original 1990 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles review — give it a listen and relive the nostalgia. Cowabunga. The Truth In This Art is supported by William G.
