Samhain88 and Pizzafan87 you guys (i'm assuming you're both male) both bring up good points, but put that energy to argue to some better use. How about..uh..how about you guys build me a Technodrome?

If Shia laBOOF plays any part in a TMNT movie, I will eat my own ****. *

Lets talk about what we want to see (positive things) rather then bash the unknown.
Example- "I hope we get to see the comics earlier story arcs get a little love towards the end of the flick or in potential sequels. I.E. Mousers!" Now... Sheesh. You got a right to your opinion, PizzaFan87, & I respect that you feel so strongly about it too, but please, stop repeating it over & over. Its unnecessary. I'm not even trying to be a dick, productive conversation is always great... but this is just negativity back & forth. Samhain88, don't even feed into it. You guys feel the way you do & it won't change. WAT DO U GUIZE WANAN C?

1. A more detailed backstory between Oroku Saki and Hamato Yoshi. 2. A film that's dark and violent (like the comics) but light-hearted and fun (like the `87 cartoon). The 1990 movie had the right idea. 3. Yes, I want Krang, the Technodrome, and Dimension X...but only as set-ups for the sequel. The first movie should be Batman Begins-esque with the origins of the Turtles, Shredder, and Splinter. 4. No CGI. The Jim Henson suits worked perfectly fine. If they want to CGI the faces, like in Where the Wild Things Are, then that's okay - but no full CGI. 5. April O' Neil as a reporter. Sorry, but I prefer it that way. 6. Casey Jones in a smaller supporting role. He should be there, but save the best for the sequel. 7. New York City in full display. |

1. Yeah I agree with that, a little more story on them wouldn't hurt, although I thought the 1990 did alright with the little they used. 2. I think TMNT 1990 was a great movie, the best interpretation of them, or rather the best version of them i've seen. I was never a reader of the comic, but I think the first movie is great, regardless of how much source material it pulled/changed from the comic. I'll argue with the comic diehards/1990 movie haters all day about that- not really. 3. I think Krang and Dim. X could be worked into a story well, over the course of a trilogy. 4. Yep. My only add on to that is to not make them cartoonish- how they looked in the original movie was great, before they changed their look for the sequels-I don't want the bigger whites of their eyes, brighter bandannas, etc. 5. Agree 6. Agree- sure seemed like a lot of Casey in the 2007 flick. Not enough Don and Mike. 7. Also Agree. Maybe some more daytime scenes, to see how they get around in the day, (They gotta leave every once in awhile) or what the hell they do in the sewer all day.

Though they don't leave in the daylight often, I too would love to see how they navigated.

The 1990 movie did a fine job. I agree. But just for the sake of doing something differently it would be nice to see the expanded history of those two. For example, in the 1989 Batman movie they did a good job with the flashback telling the story of how Bruce Wayne's parents were murdered. Yet it was still cool to see the parents given more screentime in Batman Begins.

The 1990 film served well for both comic and cartoon fans. It had all the right elements into it. As for the reboot, I am sure that their won't be any Bebop, Rocksteady, or Krang because there is a new generation of kids and they wouldn't understand it like we did. I could be wrong though.
I am still giving this movie a chance and if there is explosions, the only thing would probably explode is the mousers if they include Baxter Stockman to the movie. |

And I'm gonna get thwacked for this, but am I seriously the only one who likes Shia as an actor? Mind you I don't want him in TMNT (can't think of a single person he could be), but I think he's one of the only really good actors in his age group right now.

Why would you think Shia LaBeouf would have any part at all? Last I looked, he's joined to Steven Spielberg at the hip, not Michael Bay. You'd have more of a chance of Michael having a cameo in the movie instead of Shia.

As long as he plays a guy who gets his a$$ kicked, I think everyone would be okay with that.

That's fine, it's your opinion. Out of curiousity, who are some of your favorite actors for his age group though?
And color me stupid again - Michael?

My thoughts: 1.I dont really think this is needed. I think the 1990 film did a great job with what they explained. 2.While I do understand what you mean, its kinda hard to have both. The humor I think could be dialed down a tad bit with way more fights and I think we would have a winner. 3.Hell no. I dont want any 80s toon characters. No thanks. 4.I dont mind CG just as long as its believeable, which not alot is. I DO want turtle suits so if they wanna CG a face on them, that is fine with me. 5.I really dont mind if April just flat out drops dead in the first 5 minutes of the movie. She wont. Of course. So I dont care what she is. 6.Casey is awesome. I like how much time he got in the 1990 film. If they give him more screentime,great. But they gotta get the right actor to pull it off. Elias Koteas did an awesome job. 7.Agreed. Nope. I actually like the guy. I think that he is a great actor and No, I would not mind seeing him in a TMNT movie. He wont be, but if he was, I wouldnt care in the slightest. |

...MAN do I feel stupid. I think I'm the one that received a nunchaku to the head, sheesh. ~_~
And just so I actually have something else to respond about... Quote:
2. I love the old film series, but the real appeal here is something 'different' from that, so I'd like it to not be too much like the old one. 3. Eh...as much as I like the old toon, and an old-toon inspired but darker film would make me squeal like a fanboy piglet, I'm also more tempted to see a closer to the comics story, since I've never read more than a handful of those. 4. Agreed whole-heartedly. One of the many reasons I enjoy the Hellboy films so much is because they are awesome prosthetics and not over-done CG work. 5. I'd like to see her as a scientist for this series, or maybe even just the runner of the antique shop, but I won't mind if she's a reporter at all. 6. It's funny, I was actually just discussing this with my mom the other day (she likes the Turtles too, to an extent), and even though she's a huge Casey fan, she thinks this is a great idea too. 7. Agreed, whole-heartedly again.

Nightmare was vapid and frankly almost boring, Friday the 13th and TCM were both boring as well, with the added bonus of sterile atmosphere and unenjoyable characters... Amityville, in addition to the others, was cliche ridden and had plot points and images bordering on insane troll logic. The hitcher was a jump movie that got me out of my seat and into my dvd collection to find something else to watch. Their "original" films aren't better.
