New R-rated TMNT movie in production!
Well, this says so, anyway:
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/r...urtles-movie#/ He just needs 20 million dollars and he will bring KRANG Industries to life. |
It's closed, though. I can't even seen when it was started.

I knew this was an Andrew post as soon as I saw it. Only came on to say:
"Yeah, and "Dawn of the Ninja" will soon be in print, too." :trazz: |
He doesn't seem to understand what "millennials" are. And the Mirage comics were "gratuitously violent"? Which ones?

Dammit Andrew! You made me think that we might get something worthwhile! :tlol:
This guy seems to have been pretty optimistic as to how the film world works. The reality is that you can't just raise a bunch of money, use Nickelodeon's characters, and then expect them not to have much creative input, regardless of how many backers there are. And they can flat-out say, 'no'. TMNT is box office poison for the next six or seven years. |
TMNT doesn't need an "R" rating to capture the spirit of the original Mirage comics. It does need someone who respects the source material though.

Oddly enough, the Twitter page doesn't seem to have any traction to it since last summer and the page doesn't seem to play the video on the IndieGoGo...

Probably Nickelodeon shut it down.

Besides, the Mirage violence is probably a heavy PG-13 at best. |

Maybe the tmnt need an "R" more than I realize. It's highly debatable. I would love a tmnt film with the tone and irreverence of Deadpool. Not to say they need to be the same formula. |
That I can see working. As long as it doesn't push into EdgeLord territory of dark grittiness.

TMNT is comradery and family. I don't mean "family" as in "Family film," but brotherhood. It's not "my roommate is an old lady on crack." A lot of people don't like that the Fred Wolf animated series created a connotation that TMNT was just jokes and random action. I don't see how making the jokes R-rated and making it cynical is respecting the franchise. Maybe it's because I'm in my 30s and I have been watching R rated movies since I was 5, but the fact that a movie is R rated no longer impresses me. I don't mind that Logan is R-rated. That's interesting. But that's not what makes good films or effective films. If I like that movie, it won't be because I saw his claws go through someone's cranium. It's like the horror genre and its fans who are always clamoring for horror to be exclusively R rated. Yet, when I think of the horror films that have made me jump or have made me fear something -- and its only a handful of horror films -- most of them are PG or PG-13. I think, out of those films, Halloween is the only one that is R. That's because you don't need to see someone's intestines to scare people. |
$100 tickets, free alcohol and possible nudity :lol:
Mark Cuban? He's not going to help make a TMNT movie. The Dallas Mavericks are rebuilding :lol: $20 million, what was this guy thinking? |

Someone wants 20 mill to make a movie they don't own the copyright to? lmao. It's even more laughable after the Axanar lawsuit. |
idk To Serve and Protect was pretty gory
