I Was Thinking Last Night Then This Guy Popped Into My Head.

Lets. D0. This.

(Please note: Post will be updated as I find more resources and think of more strategies)

Mutant May

YOU can watch Season 1 and Season 2 of RISE right HERE!

So I’ve seen a a lot of people still wondering if Rise of the TMNT can be saved.

There’s is a lot of hope, especially with the boom of fans joining the fandom after the movie dropped last year, people making more art on tumblr, twitter, tik tok, and so on. But also a a lot of doubt, especially after JJ Conway’s post on twitter.

BUT…I still think there is a chance…a GOOD chance. WITH ORIGINAL CAST AND CREW! Why?

We live in the internet. Information is more then easy to get out now thanks to social media. There is all kinds of ways to get the word out to people. Let’s abuse it. 😎

Fans have brought back shows before.

We need a MAJOR push through social media, more fans, more art, it’s up to us…and I think we can do it!

Fans convinced Netflix to bring Sense8 back for a finale

Fans convinced fox to bring back “Futurama” after it was cancelled in 1999.

Hey Arnold got the jungle movie thirteen years after the show was cancelled

Animaniacs got a 3 season revival 22 years after it stopped airing.

Brooklyn 99 was cancelled in 2018, and the fans convinced NBC to pick up the series.

Arrested Development was canceled after 3 seasons, but AFTER it was cancelled, it grew an audience and they made it come back!

Fans saved the original Star Trek in the 60s with letters.

They did it. Why can’t we?

So what can we do?

Well…

1. PETITIONS TO SAVE RISE that we can all sign…

PETITION 1 (The strongest one, but the more petitions signed, the better!)

PETITION 2

PETITION 3

PETITION 4 (save the content that was cut/we missed)

PETITION 5! (Make an ROTTMNT season 3)

2. Pester Nickelodeon and Netflix on social media (THE BIG ONE Y’ALL, THIS IS THE MOST DIRECT AND IMPORTANT)

Be polite, be non-toxic (don’t be rude or mean, the boys would not want that, and the Nick/Netflix won’t listen), but be LOUD, PASSIONATE, AND ANNOYING! Ask for DVDs of the show/movie, and then BUY THOSE DVDs!

MAKE SURE TO ASK FOR THE FULL ORIGINAL CAST AND CREW TO COME BACK, INCLUDING ANDY SARIANO AND ANT WARD.

Sample DM/Letter (but try to come up with your own. Too many repeats and they will ignore it)

“Dear Nickelodeon/Netflix/Viacom, I can’t tell you how much Rise means to me, and I really love that you put the show on air. But it was not fair that the show was cancelled before it got the chance to reach the audience it deserved, only because of a few bad reviews and a lack of advertising. The show is great, there’s tons of fans, tons of art, and people, including me, want so much more! Please bring it back! We want the original crew to come, Flying Bark, for the show to get it’s full second season restored, and it’s five season run like it was originally intended. People hated the 2012 TMNT when it came out, but it got it’s chance and now there are people that love it. Why can’t Rise of the TMNT have the same? It’s clear that the creators love their work and there’s a growing fan base for it. Rise just came out at the wrong time, but it deserves it chance to shine.”

The more personal you made the letter, the more you say what Rise means to you, the better.

As for me? I’m sending them a picture of Pizza Pigeon with the #wewantmoreriseoftheTMNT and #saverottmnt

Request movies/seasons on Netflix.

Ask for Rise Season 2, another season, another movie. Just keep asking!

Rugrats was brought back because fans bombarded Nickelodeon with letters saying they wanted it back. Might as well cover our bases. This one is a BIG DEAL!

If anyone has any more, any deeper more direct points of contact, or more ideas, please share!

3. Leave good reviews for Rise anywhere and raise awareness everywhere you can!

One of the key reasons Rise did not do too well because it was unfairly review bombed before people could give it a chance…so get out there on tik tok, IMDB, Rotten Tomatoes, and ESPECIALLY youtube.

Make reviews! Analysis! JOKES! Support other content creators! When the Rise Reanimated video comes out, share it like no tomorrow!

No one paid attention when How to Train Your Dragon came out, but word of mouth and people saying it was good, made it the success it was. Let’s repeat history!

Anytime there is NEW RISE CONTENT on Nickelodeon’s YouTube channel, watch it, share, spread it.

Share this post on social media, across various sites, use the information here to spread awareness about how people can help and what they can do. Be relentless! (Like Leo in Lair Games)

Ask influencers to review, react, and give RISE a chance without placing judgement.

4. Make. ART!

Draw, Write, TWEET, Make MERCH, Sell MERCH, Make Tik Toks, Videos on YouTube, posts on instagram, discord, what pad, demanding more Rise, spreading the word, and just showing how much you love this show! Not only will it attract attention, but it’s also good for all of us. There will be more Rise content either way.

Make sure to @ nickelodeon on ALL of your art! SPAM THEM! ANNOY THEM! DROWN THEM IN LOVE FOR THIS SHOW! Demand DVD’s and Blue rays of the SHOW AND THE MOVIE! It’s not fair that we can’t have access to it!

PLAY THIS GAME!

If you see official Rise MERCH in the while, buy it if you can! Also support as many rise content creators as you can. If you can’t draw? Write! If you can’t create! Like! Share! Comment! Support each other!

Rise April ART Challenge

Keep in mind…there WILL be pushback.

Companies as big as Nickelodeon and Viacom care about their bottom line: $$$…money. BUT pushback, whether they are taking down your videos on Tik Tok, striking artists on twitter, mean that they’re taking NOTICE. So don’t. Give. UP!

One last thing to remember: DO NOT harass fans for enjoying other versions of TMNT

Even though Rise is the first and only TMNT I have ever loved, I don’t believe in shaming other fans for looking forward to, or enjoying other TMNT series. Gatekeeping like that was what stopped Rise from (heh) Rising as high as it should have. All Rise fans are welcome, and all TMNT fans are welcome. Rise deserves to reach more fans, it deserves another season, and it does not need to knock down other TMNT series to do it. Show them your love and your need for more Rise, without making other TMNT fans feel unwelcome.

Share, spread the word, give it your best shot! A village can move MOUNTAINS! SO let’s do it.

So that in the near future…we can MAKE THIS JOKE!

I had no idea that this happened, but I'm loving it.

Guys

I made this observation a long while ago but i think more people.need to talk about how not only can inks eyelights change shape but also their scarf depending on his emotions

Like its so cute hello

A super obvious example of this but somehow not talked about enough is in the prism collection stickers, his scarf changes shape corresponding to the emotion of the colour

Sparks, jagged, wavy, teary and hearts. Look how cute. I've seen creators draw it all ink-like and painty but i barely see shapes!!! This is too cute to ignore guys come on!!

Ink + all art ⋆ Comyet

i love afterdeath where they’re both like morticia and gomez so much you literally will never understand. yeah i guess you could make them tsundere x flirty or mean to each other or whatever. but like just think. WHAT. if they were so in love it’s sickening. what if they thjnk about each other all the time. what if they kiss a lot. what if reaper writes romantic letters to geno from work and has them delivered via ravens. what then.

This art is cool but I can only see this;

Help.

I wanted to expand on this idea (since it's been keeping me up at Night) my three thoughts on this are:

#1: There's an angry trouble maker running around.

#2: An AU where you need to get both of the sides of Nightmare back together if you ever want to kill him since they just respond back with each other.

#3: The easiest during a burnout...

Ta da

Nightmare and his angry little Chihuahua version of himself.

Red and blue make purple, right?

Passive!Nightmare is purple, so you can take purple apart into two colors, red and blue..

Corrupted!Nightmare is blue/cyan, which is more often associated with the feelings of sadness.

But who is red?

And that's how I came to the conclusion that there is another, anger (and preferably smaller) Nightmare out there.

Boo! Art.

Star Sanses Swap/Blue head canons.

• Swap does tie his bandana as a bow in the back, but only for battle so it stays out of the way.

• Swap definitely serves people tacos and burritos after he saves an Au from the Bad Sanses.

• He probably leaves random pieces of paper with riddles on them around the Star Sanses base to keep Dream and Ink entertained and happy,

• If you turn in the riddle and you get it correct, free taco/burrito of your choosing!

• Probably adopted the little Fanon Blueberry for awhile until he found out that he was a yandere, Swap is still trying to help him with his friendlyness lessons.

• Does get left behind by the Star Sanses every once in awhile, either at base because he was sleeping and Dream didn't want to disturb him or at an Au because Dream thought Ink brought him back to base already and was too emotionally drained to check if his assumptions were true.

• He knows he's considered weaker than the other two, but he doesn't mind since they're literal demi-gods to him, yet can still keep with them since he's the SANSATIONAL SWAP!

• He still loves puns and friendly pranks every once in awhile, but it has to at the right time, like when they're relaxing at home or there's no danger around and today is just a fun/calm day.

• He visits his Papyrus and Au a lot to keep everyone from missing his amazing self too much.

• He usually eats healthy food to stay in shape, tacos and other Mexican foods are treats.

• He usually has the most sense, but each of the Star Sanses have their own turns with their shared braincell (yes, including Ink, he needs to have it every once in awhile).

• Is trying to figure out how to give all the bad sanses friendliyness lessons.

• He isn't innocent, but he's a good person in general (even if he has a huge ego).

Relatable.

REBLOG IF THIS RELATES TO YOU:

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought of something I find funny.

What if Papyrus almost cusses but uses other words instead. Examples;

"Ow ffffflapjacks!!"

"Holy shine!"

"What the holy flying spaghetti monster above!?"

"Duck." Or "Fudge."

I was planning to shade it like I normally do, but I decided it already looks okay like this, so have my unshaded art.
