History Film / TeenageMutantNinjaTurtlesIITheSecretOfTheOoze

The film also stars Creator/PaigeTurco as April O'Neil, Creator/DavidWarner as Professor Jordan Perry and Kevin Clash as Splinter.

The Foot Clan is back, and back at the helm is Shredder (Creator/FrancoisChau, with voice dubbing by David [=McCharen=]), thought dead by practically everyone. Scarred from his dive into a trash compactor, he is out for revenge against the Ninja Turtles Leonardo (Mark Caso and Rob Tygner, with voice dubbing by Brian Tochi), Michelangelo (Michelan Sisti and Mak Wilson, with voice dubbing by Creator/RobbieRist), Donatello (Leif Tilden and Rob Mills, with voice dubbing by Adam Carl) and Raphael (Kenn Troum and David Greenaway, with voice dubbing by Laurie Faso). Their numbers may be diminished, but they have something to even the odds. Taking a sample of the waste that birthed the Turtles from the TGRI laboratory, the Foot has two deadly enforcers in the form of Tokka and Rahzar (Kurt Bryant and Mark Ginther, with voice dubbing by Creator/FrankWelker), a mutated snapping turtle and wolf.

* MouthTapedShut: While Donatello is busy freeing Raphael during the junkyard scene, he pulls the duct tape off of his mouth, which prompts Raph to yell at him about almost ripping his lips off. Don proceeds to put the tape back on him while he works on untying him.

* YuppieCouple: 1/2 of it; April meets a couple.

* CanonForeigner: Tokka, Rahzar, and Keno.

* DenserAndWackier: Not to the point of being an outright comedy, but there are definitely more comedic moments than the original film. Plus some of the fight scenes are sillier the way they're executed (see: the fight scene at the beginning with "weapons" like sausage links; the lab fight scene which becomes an impromptu football game).

* OneWingedAngel: Super Shredder.
** ClippedWingAngel: While he hulked out immensely, he became little more than a rampaging beast and ended up doing himself in.

* ImprobableWeaponUser: All of the Turtles. They don't use their weapons to attack a single time the whole film, using nothing but improvised weapons: sausage links, yo-yos... you name it.

* MoralGuardians: The Turtles rarely use their weapons in combat in this film, as a result of the movie studio attempting to tone down the violence from the previous film, catering to parents complaining that the Ninja Turtles were too violent and encouraging aggression.

* OrnamentalWeapon: Due to [[MoralGuardians parental complaints]], the Turtles don't use their weapons whatsoever despite still carrying them everywhere and constantly finding themselves in dangerous situations.

''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze'' is the 1991 sequel to the [[Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles original Ninja Turtles film]]. It is directed by Michael Pressman from a screenplay by Todd W. Langen. It was released on March 22nd, 1991.

* YourSizeMayVary: Due to [[TheOtherDarrin changes in the suit actors of both the characters]], Raph goes from being the [[BigLittleBrother tallest turtle]] in [[Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles the first movie]] to being slightly shorter than Leo here (and that height order is maintained in both ''Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtlesIII'' and ''WesternAnimation/{{TMNT}}''). Given they are teenagers, it can be explained that they are still growing as of now.

* SelfDisposingVillain: The Turtles never really fight Shredder head on through the movie. In the final encounter, Shredder drinks the last of the ooze and turns into Super Shredder. But tries to kill the Turtles by dropping a pier on them...and only ends up offing himself. Leo even cites the dangers of what he's doing but Shredder's beyond caring by this point.

* NothingIsScarier: This was clearly the intention of Shredder entering in shadow without his faceplate on and everyone else staring at him in shock. This is a reasonably effective moment in itself, but as noted above, the holes in the faceplate allow us to later see his mouth moving. It demonstrates he doesn't actually look any worse for wear after his garbage truck experience, thus negating the effect.

* FriendsRentControl: April has moved into a new apartment with multiple floors and enough space to reasonably accommodate the turtles and Splinter, although it is a little tight. Not bad for a news reporter. In the first film she lived above an antique shop that was apparently in the family, after the Foot burn it down it's possible she had an insurance payout.

** Shredder thinks with the ooze, he can make two powerful mutants to fight for him. However, while Toka and Rahzar mutate into bigger monsters, they turn out to have the mindset of babies. After all, as shown in the first film's backstory flashback, the Turtles took a while to develop too after they mutated, so Shredder forgot to take that into account. He does manage to make the most of it at Professor Perry's insistence.

** Though the Turtles get Tokka and Rahzar to eat some of the anti-mutagen, it doesn't take effect right away and Don and Professor Perry realize they need a coolant for it to digest properly which they find in fire extinguishers.

** As He sits down next to Michelangelo when watching April's report, Raphael sarcastically tells off Mikey to stop eating so loud. Unfortunately, his brother takes this suggestion quite literally and crunches the candy bar he's eating right into his ear just to annoy him some more.
--->'''Raphael:''' "Do you mind? I can still hear outta this one." ''(gesturing to his left ear)''

The Foot Clan is back, and back at the helm is Shredder, thought dead by practically everyone. Scarred from his dive into a trash compactor, he is out for revenge. Their numbers may be diminished, but they have something to even the odds. Taking a sample of the waste that birthed the Ninja Turtles from the TGRI laboratory, the Foot has two deadly enforcers in the form of Tokka and Rahzar, a mutated snapping turtle and wolf.

* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: Invoked by Tatsu. With Shredder gone, he intends to lead the Foot and offers any challenger a chance to beat him and take his place. Quickly averted when Shredder returns and reclaims his position as master of the clan without even having to fight.

* ProperlyParanoid: While discussing that TGRI created the ooze that mutated Splinter and the Turtles, Splinter states, "If the contents of this canister were not unique, the city may be facing ''grave danger.''" Which is precisely what happens when Shredder gets his own sample of ooze, and decides to create his own mutants.

* HellYesMoment: Mikey's response to finding a manhole, during the junkyard fight.

* YourSizeMayVary: Due to [[TheOtherDarrin changes in the suit actors of both the characters]], Raph goes from being the [[BigLittleBrother tallest turtle]] in [[Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles the first movie]] to being slightly shorter than Leo here (and that height order is maintained in both ''Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtlesIII'' and ''WesternAnimation/{{TMNT}}''. Given they are teenagers, it can be explained that they are still growing as of now.

* BerateAndSwitch: When Freddie returns with the enlarged dandelion, Shredder says this is not why he sent him to follow April around. Freddie immediately pleads to be heard out, but Shredder angrily yells at him to be quiet. Shredder reveals he does think Freddie is right about this having possibilities; he just hates being interrupted.

** Director Michael Pressman has a brief scene as April's boss Phil at the news station.
