Thanks for this.
if this is true then the blue door script was 119 pages and adding 7 min (just to meet in the middle) would make the storyline its self aprox 126 min...... hopefully they kept it about the same with this new script

Honesty, I don't know why anyone would care how many "fans" there are.

i can vouch that this is true 99% of the time so looks like we have our running time give or take a second

I hope the movie is a little over 2 hours. Good, bad, great, really bad, mediocre, really mediocre. Bring it. If this movie is that long at least certain portions of it will get time to breathe due to the running length of the movie. There would be a possibility because of that.

I bet the movie will start with a news report of some sort, Like in the first movie, Where you hear a news report about crime and stuff.

That's what I was thinking, but this time, they are interviewing Sachs out right. I have this feeling he's going to be the opposite of Bruce Wayne!

Or it's going to start with Megan Fox bouncing up and down on a trampoline.

I have a feeling they are going to go with the version of April who starts out as a fluff reporter she tries to get good stories, then Gets in trouble, gets fired then has to "redeem" herself Like in the Wolf series, and that when they find the turtles and such

Maybe a kind of Lex Luthor angle -_^ could work IMO

And she gets a chance for a good story when the Foot Soldiers suddenly take over the Subway. Shes sees them getting beat up, and pulling out her smart phone to catch all the action in hopes of reporting it on Channel 6.

Will Arnett stated in an interview that because they are a reporter/camera man combo, it puts them in a unique state to tell the story using that 'point of view'...so my guess is, they will DEFINITELY be using found footage elements.

[shuriken]

No idea whatsoever, but I'll shoot a number out of my ass because everyone is doing it so... 111 minutes because why not.

Not so sure I like this idea for the turtles

Are you being serious?

I kinda do. I think certain parts would be dope using found footage. L ike people having sitings of humaniod type creatures in new york. Could be dope.

Would be pretty cool. I hope so. Something new for the movie versions.

Same. Found footage has been done to death at this point, and do they really need to be going that 'realistic' and edgy? I mean, this is a movie about giant turtles who wear colored headbands and fight a guy who may very well be a pink octopus-alien in a suit of armor.

Wait, an hour and a half only? The LEGO Movie was longer. I was expecting two hours or so.

Probably just a prediction, they usually don't announce running times until couple of weeks before release. Anyway it be best to find out when movie news site reveal it.
