Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) Still Rules | Chef Liz’s TMNT Movie Feast at Two Plumbers

The original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) movie still holds up, and we're celebrating everything that made it a classic.

Logan Janis is joined by Chef Liz of Tenacious Eats, Pizza Babble (Andy), and James Enstall of Geek to Me Radio to talk about the darker tone of the original film, Jim Henson's incredible creature work, favorite pizza moments, arcade nostalgia, and Chef Liz's immersive Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles dining event at Two Plumbers Arcade & Brewery.

We also discuss St. Louis food culture, local pizza recommendations, Team Jakey Fest, upcoming movie screenings, and why the 1990 TMNT film remains one of the greatest comic book movies ever made.
