Surf Ninjas Trailer

3 Ninjas Trailer

Surf Ninjas all the way, bros.

 

[MavFan619]

3 Ninjas but I have an appreciation for Surf Ninjas as well.

 

[AudioNoir]

3 Ninjas!!

 

[xxracerxx]

3 Ninjas.

 

[Deleted member 13876]

Not the easiest call, but Surf.

 

[jasminlovesyoux]

3 ninjas for sure

 

[Aurongel]

3 Ninjas has Hulk Hogan, so that wins.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Surf Ninjas tries too hard.

 

[harSon]

Ernie Reyes Jr is a ninja turtle, therefore Surf Ninjas. He was also in The Last Dragon, so Surf Ninjas.

 

[Affeinvasion]

Surf Ninjas had a gamegear that could tell the future.

Game. Set. Match.

 

[Coin Return]

3 Ninjas.

I mean, moto surfing? C'mon.

Also, there is a pg-13 cut of 3 Ninjas with added scenes, dialog, a different ending.

 

[RedSwirl]

3 Ninjas.

Kick Back if you wanna be more specific.

 

[SocksAndShoes]

Rocky loves Emily bro.

Rocky loves Emily.

 

[GamerJM]

Surf Ninjas tries too hard.

I haven't seen 3 Ninjas but I watched Surf Ninjas in its entirety this is absolutely true.

 

[D1renegade]

3 Ninjas kick back is GOAT so..

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

3 Ninjas, because of the Home Alone-style kidnapping sequence that went down halfway through. 7 year old me was enthralled.

 

[Nakazato]

3 Ninjas.

I mean, moto surfing? C'mon.

Also, there is a pg-13 cut of 3 Ninjas with added scenes, dialog, a different ending.

Really ?

 

[Marvie_3]

Surf Ninjas by far

 

[Strictly]

Surf ninjas somehow aged better, so that.

 

[Slayven]

Surf Ninjas had a gamegear that could tell the future.

Game. Set. Match.

And Tone Loc

 

[Coin Return]

3 Ninjas.

Kick Back if you wanna be more specific.

I always thought it was weird that Koga was both the name of the town where the ninja tournament takes place, and the main villain.

They also changed the grandfather's last name from Tanaka to Shintaro.

Lots of weird inconsistencies in the 3 Ninjas universe.

 

[AlphaSnake]

Surf Ninjas.

It was just badass for my 7 year old self.

I had no idea the trailer was that cheesy though. My God the voiceover...

 

[Aurongel]

WUT.

A number of high-level defectors from the Democratic People's Republic of North Korea have stated that 3 Ninjas Kick Back was a childhood favorite of Kim Jong Un, now Supreme Chancellor of the DPRK. He was apparently so taken with the film that his father, Kim Jong Il, reportedly commissioned a remake with Korean actors.

 

[DiscoJer]

Surfs Ninjas because it has Ernie Reyes Jr in it. He was in Sidekicks, which wasn't one of my favorite shows, but one I watched regularly.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

My god.

3 Ninjas is an integral part of my childhood and I can't hate on it no matter how terrible it is now that I'm old. It's still great.

Surf Ninjas, on the other hand, isn't even awesomely bad. It's just bad.

 

[mariachi507]

Ba-ba-ba ba-barbara ann.

 

[Rue]

Surfs Ninjas because it has Ernie Reyes Jr in it. He was in Sidekicks, which wasn't one of my favorite shows, but one I watched regularly.

He's also Keno in TMNT2

Surf Ninjas was hilariously amazing and had better martial arts than 3 Ninjas.

(I love 3 Ninjas Kick Back though)

 

[Pinko Marx]

Which is the one with the dude with the Gameboy that Can make stuff happen in reality? Cuz that one.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

3 Surf Ninjas.

 

[Gorger]

Nostalgia Critic did a review on both of them, let him help you decide.

 

[Mookie1515]

Surf Ninjas every day. It taught me the valuable lesson that money cannot buy knives.

 

[inm8num2]

Neither.

Beverly Hills Ninja

 

[Boke1879]

The first two "3 Ninja's" movies. The last one in the trilogy was trash.

Surf Ninjas was good as well.

 

[ElTopo]

Neither. As a kid, I did watch 3 Ninja's a bit. I thought it was all right back then.

 

[BronsonLee]

I choose the movie that I'm in. Surf Ninjas.

 

[Kurt Angle]

surf ninjas

3 ninjas is racist

 

[Chie Satonaka]

Neither.

Beverly Hills Ninja

This movie is really stupid, but it's still fun and holds up the best of the three by far.

 

[Auron_Kale]

Surf Ninjas all the way. 3 Ninjas is pretty great too, but not as good as Surf Ninjas.

I also enjoyed watching Airborne as a kid too.

 

[HyperZone<3]

WUT.

not only that, the director of Three Ninjas was a South Korean ex-pat who was previously kidnapped, tortured, and forced to make films for the North under duress. He escaped, eventually, only after finishing a North Korean feudal era spin on Godzilla.

none of that is an exaggeration.

 

[Jharp]

3 Ninjas all day err day.

 

[Big-E]

What would the equivalent of this movie be today? Something that every kid saw but wasn't really a theatrical release?

 

[MrCunningham]

Surf Ninja's has Leslie Nielsen.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Ernie Reyes Jr is a ninja turtle, therefore Surf Ninjas. He was also in The Last Dragon, so Surf Ninjas.

Surf Ninjas had a gamegear that could tell the future.

Game. Set. Match.

And Tone Loc

I mean

you can't beat this combination

 

[NoblesseOblige]

There needed to be a 3 Ninjas vs Surf Ninjas crossover where they battle to the death.

 

[Askherserenity]

3 Ninjas all the way but I loved that Surf Ninjas trailer as a kid.

 

[Aeana]

Surf Ninjas every day. It taught me the valuable lesson that money cannot buy knives.

This.
I'd cut him, but I don't have a knife.

 

[User 479360]

Never heard of Surf Ninjas...but loved 3 Ninjas as a kid.

 

[Mango Positive]

<old>None of the above!!!

</old>

 

[Snaku]

3 Ninjas, from the director that was kidnapped by North Korea to make a shitty Godzilla knock off with Toho's Godzilla fx team whom were also kidnapped.

I love both actually, you can't make me choose.

 

[ElTopo]

<old>None of the above!!!

</old>

Fist bump.
