We already know how it's going to play out. It's going to show up in the last ten minutes in the movie and then be destroyed. Because God knows these producers can't end the movie on a cliffhanger and have the Technodrome be a huge, unstoppable force for the third movie.
That's another thing, what's the plot of the third movie gonna be? They're probably gonna take out Krang and the Technodrome in this movie... that should've been the grand finale. I'm guessing Triceratons? |

So far, IDW seems to be the only new take on the Technodrome that's worth a damn.

One thing's for sure, if they do destroy the drome, you can bet they'll have Donnie use the technology to build them a turtle blimp or some other mad thing.

Because that would be terrible! Especially in a movie with aliens, mutants, and hidden sewer turtles who drive giant garbage trucks!

These guys should have to prove they can write a halfway coherent story before they get to play with all the fancy toys. Using this stuff as gimmicks and fan-service to distract people from paper-thin characters and another lousy script is just a waste.

Platinum Dunes TMNT is the price we pay for IDW TMNT, I guess.

Here's a closer look at the Technodrome from that playset.

These are the kinds of movies for people who actually like dumb sh*t like Mortal Kombat: Annihilation and X-Men 3, not like to watch and make fun of but actually enjoy without irony (yes, I've had people try and defend Annihilation to me). Everything is sh*tty and there's no story to speak of, really, and everything is "adapted" so terribly wrong, but look! There's that bit character from that thing you liked! And everything happens so fast you don't have any time to dwell on how bad it all sucks, so like who cares, right? Just look at THAT thing blow up and THAT goofy CGI nonsense over there and THIS little bit of fan-wank right here and pretend all this sh*t adds up to anything decent. In other words, it all adds up to be far, far less than the sum of its parts. Because they're not putting that stuff in with any kind of care, they're just tossing it on top because they know people will spunk over it because it reminds them of being 8. It'd be different if there was any kind of authentic craftsmanship being done here, but no, it's throwaway junk that they slapped together in six months. "Oh, wow! It's Dark Phoenix! I mean, well, NO, it really isn't, but... yay?" Same sh*t. Technodrome is a really tiny Death Star. Nice to know these guys are ripping off stuff from the fanfic I wrote in like 2003. Where's my check, bitches?

Because you're right. They only have to try as hard as their audience makes them. And it's become pretty clear that the audience is going to throw fistfuls of cash at anything that presses their nostalgia button, no matter how badly-made or cynical the product is. Quote:

In my fanfic, I actually had Mikey point out what a cliched and unoriginal idea it was to turn the Technodrome into the Death Star. If someone in the movie makes a similar quip, I'm going to have to get better security for my laptop.

These all look pretty good, and definitely increases my anticipation for the movie. I like the look of the new Technodrome too!

Well, to be fair:
Big slabs of metal greebles arranged in a sphere. Overlap is bound to happen. Star Trek went for a different primitive, but effectively the same: |

maybe its just me but live action movie verse wise it just looks like direct copy pasted from transformers 3

We still haven't seen what Spider-Man will look like in Civil War. And I doubt we will until Marvel is ready to show it.
