I'll never agree that the PD version was entertaining, I literally got a headache from that. |

The PD version had potential, but they were a bit too obnoxious and a little overdone, imo. I'd have rather that Shredder played more of a real role in the film (with Krang) and B&R just stuck by him as his bumbling henchmen that aid him instead of being focused on to an extent as if they were the primary villains even while they still weren't. Krang was the 'big bad,' yet got so little screen time compared to B&R who were essentially just obstacles.
PD focuses way too much on creating movies around a primary action piece they think is exciting... and then losing the potential of the rest of the film. Maybe I've never written a film, but that seems like a crappy way to do it. |

I can't get that to open but if it's just another rumour then I'm not too fussed. Does anyone else feel like this movie may have been dropped? (or at least maybe put on the back burner for now)

It sounds too good to be true.
Treating this as credible for a second - it's sounds great however I'm not sure that the bad box office for Birds Of Prey should really get them to rethink. In many ways that movie is what a lot of DC fans always wanted. It's only real flaw was that was an all girl movie and they have cooties - that's not really a problem with TMNT. Not that a comic faithful TMNT even needs to be that level of dark or R-Rated. Very little of the Mirage books you couldn't get away comfortably in a PG-13. As long as it takes it's story, characters and tone fairly seriously we don't need gore or turtles dropping F bombs. Not that I would turn my nose up at that kind of TMNT movie but something with the general tone of The Winter Soldier or Civil War would do nicely. Not that I believe this anyway. Like I said it's all a bit too good to be true and sadly nothing we haven't heard before. Unfortunately I could Sonic The Hedgehog more of an influence with Paramount which although that's a decent movie it's not really what anyone wants with TMNT.

Yeah, this website is 100% full of ****. They may follow along and post a correct rumor occasionally, but they are the least reliable source I've ever come across. I'd even suggest taking that link down, tbh.
But for the sake of discussion: It's nice to imagine we are in a world where "the powers that be" just saw the floor sort of drop under them with "Rise..." and are now thinking it's time to go big or go home. Stop towing the awkward line between gritty and children-oriented that PD originally went for. Just throw older fans a damn bone and see if it can skyrocket like other comic book properties have shown is possible. Wishful thinking, but it feels good.

I know. They said that Disney was working on live-action versions of Pocahontas and The Great Mouse Detective and those rumors were very soon debunked.

Eh, yeah, not buying it... That's a fair amount of text in an "article" that really says almost nothing.
Sure, a darker reboot someday isn't implausible -- and easy to throw at the wall and see if it sticks one day -- but everything else at that link feels like space filler for the sake of creating an article, including the inclusion of the entirely unrelated actress in a yellow suit. |

Article also calls Birds Of Prey "a faithful adaptation."

Sorry, I didn't know there was a New TMNT movie in the works, but what's happening right now? Is there a sudden change in direction that I didn't know about?

And even if it is still planned to happen, I doubt any films of any kind are filming right now due to that virus. Though personally I'd love to hear a little something about it. A little leak of info to give us something to talk about, some small hint of direction, esp with most of us bored in lockdown. |

Check out these 3D fan art images of the turtles. These look like the 90s designs. And these designs can work with realistic CGI. They should use these designs as a template when redesigning the turtles for the TMNT reboot.
