This 1 pic alone not only ties all 3 previous films together but it also gives us an idea at the greatness this movie is about to release upon the masses. Big spoilers so do not look if you do not want to be spoiled

ooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh......


That's a neat picture. I think I see mouser feet and bits at the bottom of the shelf....and the turtle titan armor?

interesting stuff....

Is that armour from the third movie? The scepter defiantly is.

it looks like it, you can even see the face mask on the wall. although, it should'nt be there because they did'nt take it back with them, but that's just me nit picking. it is still a great image. Its a safe bet that its just a vague history (similar events but not the same events) the ooze cannister being T.C.R.I I think supports that

I don't see anything from the second movie, unless you count the mutagen/TCRI?
\
how spoilerish are the pictures? major plot spoilish or just setting or what, i really want to see them.

the ooze canister is the turtle 2 shout out, the Shredder helmet is the same from TMNT 1 and the TMNT 3 shout out is pretty obvious.

I think they are pretty spoiler heavy but they don't give every little detail away because well, no dialogue to back them up. But you can make assumptions based on some of the pics (one looks to be a pretty messed up scene)

Is this some sort of unofficial leak, I doubt if Imagi would want that amount of stills revealed.
Still though I'm not complaining, those images are awesome!

yea, its all i saw but since there are even more 3 references it seemed odd, i also see 'splinters' old robe and maybe a blaster like the ones from the original toon?

i saw a few of the pictures about 10 and only one of them was spoilerish (which is actually on the other XMAS NEW PICTURES thread) i'm afraid to look at more though

I looked at the first 20 or so and this film is looking great. The pics all appear to be in film order, so if you were to look at all 162 you'd probably be pretty spoiled. So I chose not to. Good find though.

Warhorse
12-27-2006, 11:08 AM
Hey, who is that in pic 12? Is that Leo?

If you dont want spoilers, then dont go to the site. But from my point of view, the pictures really aren't spoilers. If anything, they totally throw you for a loop on what the whole plot is all about.

PS. #15 is a really nice pic of the city. Not a spoiler either, if you want to take a look at the quality of this cgi. This picture should shut up the nay sayers!

#22 and #23 are nice pics.

TMNT
12-27-2006, 11:09 AM
I kind of didn't want to but...yeah, I looked. Like mentioned, they seem to go in order but who knows? I don't consider them to be major spoilers but they do seem to let our imaginations run wild. While looking, there were a few pictures where I just looked at them and imagined what the scene would be like with dialouges, action and everything. They are really good pictures. Oh man, 3 months and we get these. I love the picture with Splinter just staring at everything they've been through. The detail is incredible.

Anyone else notice the TCRI robot in the bottom of the table in the top pic?

johnnyblaze
12-27-2006, 11:12 AM
when you look at some of the images and compare it to what we have seen in the trailer and what we know you can tell that not everything is revealed but it definatly allows you to make assumtions. a few of the later images shows something I thought was pretty wild/messed up/sad but it very well could be misleading. Lol this story is definatly not a simple TMNT vs Monsters tale

Spike Spiegel

How the hell did they manage to get all these pictures? Boy, are Mr. Murphy and Kevin gonna be pissed when they find out.

I couldn't help myself and saw a few as well. I don't consider them spoiler-ish since it just shows what we know so far. I didn't exactly look through them all, just a few of them, so I could be wrong.

the title "How Spice Made East West Meet" might be a vague reference to "Next Mutation"!

Holy %#&%@!!

Ok, I've gone and saved all of the pics (in case they disappear - you can't get stills this good even from a DVD), but I haven't looked at all of them - although I saw the top of most of the pics as I downloaded them. I'm torn about looking. I probably will, but I know I shouldn't....

Was anyone able to get pic 104? I can't seem to get that one to load.

yeah, i also don't think the pictures are going to last and the quality is too good to pass but to avoid being spoiled i didn't download them,

i am able to see pic 104 though, here i uploaded it to my photobucket so you can save it for 'archives' ;)

Thanks! Although photobucket resizes the pics. Do you think you could email the original to me? My address is my username at yahoo (dot com, duh).

I did sneak a peak through all the pics, though in a VERY small window, so not at full resolution. They're really not *too* bad in terms of spoilers. It'd be better if there weren't all (apparently) sequential, though.

I wonder if that's just a placeholder though, because if you look, there's another book below it with the same title. Odd that they would have two, huh? - Just an observation.

wyze2099
12-27-2006, 02:48 PM
I couldn't help looking at and saving all 162 pictures. They look absolutely phenomenal. While it seems a lot of them might be in sequential order, there's no way to tell at this point what the exact order of the pictures will be. And I'm pretty sure the collection hasn't covered all of the scenes, just some of them. So I think I've only been partially spoiled.

Not that I mind, because now I'm even more excited to see the movie. Partly because the movie looks absolutely visually stunning, and partly because there are a few moments in the pics that require more explanation. I'll probably need to see the movie in order to make sense of a few of the pictures.

Warhorse
12-27-2006, 06:57 PM
So, is there a thread on here where we can talk about the pictures in a spoiler or hypothetic way?

Like the Raph and Leo fight? I want to know what other people's perceptions are of those pics, while letting them know the thread could spoil something.

PS. Also, this could bring new fire to the "whose gonna have the most screen time thread". Judging by those pics, there was one Turtle in particular with lots of shots!

Rooish
12-27-2006, 07:13 PM
I hear that about the Turtle with the most screen time, Warhorse. :roll:

But the images are beautiful. And they seem to definitely not give away the ending. The middle, however...

Warhorse
12-27-2006, 07:31 PM
Well, the fight scene gives an idea who starts it. But who ends it, I'm not sure. Really.

Oh, also seeing those pics. I get to see Raph's armour in a more clear fashion. I had originally thought those things on the helmet were ears of some sort.

But they are not. They're lights. Kind of cute.

Stupid technical question.

How do you take the images from that 162 images and make avatars with it and keep it clear.

I am trying, but it comes out fuzzy, and while I can get the image down to 100x100 pixel, the KB are still large. Like 36 or more. I'm still learning on the computer, so some of the more technical things and words I will not know.

But can someone help me? Pm me please?

http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a392/Warhorse_1978/badassraph.jpg

This is a cool pic, because you can see Raph's face through the glass visor if you look close enough. It really shows the painstaking attention to detail this movie is attempting.

Ok, here's my fangirl blithering on the pictures (which requires having access to all the pics for proper reference):

10 - Jedi Leo!
18 - O'Neil Cargo! Sounds impressive!
20 - Showoff
21 - Back home. (LOVE)
23 - Serious LOVE (OMG the family portrait!)
24 - Leo's happy to see Raph? Yeah, too bad you're gonna try to kill him later...
26 - Loungin' (LOVE)
27 - LOVE
28-29 - Serious LOVE
34-35 - Ok, so we've already seen this, but it's still awesome.
52 - LOVE (I am SO glad I bought this toy!)
58-60, 63 - Based on things Kevin Munroe has said, I'm guessing this is where Raph and Casey talk about the nature of being vigilantes, or something along those lines.
68 - LOVE
69 - LOVE
70 - What's with all the tin foil? (And LOVE!)
71 - Hmmm.. Don looks upset.
73-75 - Don does research in someone's apartment (April and/or Casey?)
92 - Raph uses pans as a weapon - classic!
94 - LOVE
95 - The newspaper reads, "Who is Nightwatcher?" (And apparently also opens backwards.)
98 - Uhoh, Raph's in trouble. (LOVE)
109-137 - This entire sequence is going to be INSANE! And the imagery here is incredible. To try to be a little specific...
110 - Raph vision (LOVE)
111 - Leo tries to reason? (LOVE)
114 - Raph shows his reason.
115 - Damn you Leo, why do you have to be so cool?!
116 - And again..
127 - Again...
128 - Stoppit!
129-130 - Flip back and forth between these two. I'd say this is when the REAL fight begins.
131 - DAMN
135-137 - Raph wins?
138 - But I think something happens to Leo, and it's not Raph..
146 - I'm *guessing* Leo doesn't come home from the fight with Raph. (Mikey in the background of this one kills me.)
147 - Just in case you hadn't lost it yet.
149 - Raph's other side (gah is that hard to look at)
150 - Recomposure..
153 - ROTFL
154 - Leo finds his way home? But why does Raph have his swords?
155 - Mikey love!
157 - Damn is that thing funny lookin'! I didn't like it much at first, but it's growing on me.
158 - Hmmm.. an aliance?
159 - LOVE
160 - Serious Mikey love. (And it looks like the poor van got trashed in the background.)
161 - I <3 this room.

Raph
12-28-2006, 10:44 AM
Ok in house crew, my mistake, but these pics are definitly from that 40 min!

Btw, since this movie is tied with the previous movies, isnt it kinda weird that:

1. Raph has no scar on his cheek
2. Splinters ear is whole
3. (small detail I noticed, the TMNT have no nails)

Spawn Guy
12-28-2006, 10:57 AM
Raph had a scar in the first movie? And while everyone says this is following the first movie, contrary to that trophy room image, I don't think it is. Kind of like Superman Returns might have something to do with the Christopher Reeve films but it can work perfectly well on it's own.

Raph

Well I'll be damned!

Maybe they didn't include it because they didn't notice it, or we go with the similar but diffrent universe theory. It may have been edited out to keep the PTA happy or maybe they just couldn't include it for the effect they wanted. We know why the humans don't look photorealistic and they have enough detail on the guys as is so maybe they just couldn't include it without mucking that up.

agreed, vague history basically. its like a comic book the way I see it: various versions of the world but the characters have similar backstories

Rooish
12-28-2006, 11:38 AM
Also it looks like, from a few pics, Raph doesn't have his shell scars, present in the other movies. Ah well. I guess they all have a clean slate and can get scarred by the end of this movie.

Judging on the screen caps, it seems that Raph knocked over Leo, but they were interrupted by the Aztec-like monstrosities.

I must say that I didn't see any noticeable scar on Raph in the whole trilogy. But maybe I just didn't pay enough attention for such details.

And I'm officially jumping on the movie craze bandwagon. "HERE'S DONNY!"

The 40-minute thing, I never heard of. But, my theory is that these were the pics USA Today and the like had the option of buying. Why else would they take down only the pics we can't find elsewhere? There are still 7 images (http://www.kino-govno.com/images.php?id=teenagemutantninjaturtles&show=all) and all 8 posters (http://www.kino-govno.com/posters.php?id=teenagemutantninjaturtles).

I don't know if I can post this here as it may or may not be spoilers but these are some of the things that I believe will happen in this film:

We already know that Leo is away. And we've seen (thanks to these new pictures) that he comes back to his family, who is apparently been torn apart. In the pic with Splinter, when Raph is coming in, I see happiness in Leo's eyes but Raph seems annoyed. It reminds me of the scene in the first movie when Raph comes in late, after the meeting with Casey, to Splinter. No doubt Raph is coming from his talks with Casey or from being the Nightwatcher. Nothing is shown of Don (other than later dealing with the monsters) or Mikey (well, we see the Cowabunga Carl van but nothing of how it's used). Casey is shown with Raph, something I think is great, showing the two bond more (as the first film hit it right but never showed any bonding and the third, well...did they even meet in that film?). What they haven't shown is how April fits into all this. I understand she works for Winters (and apparently has her own cargo service) but where did all these ninja skills come from? I kind of hoped April would be April, not even a news reporter, just the April we know. I think the 2K3 show had the influence of making April a fighting machine as well. I don't expect this film to faithfully follow the previous three (I think the shot with Splinter in the trophy room says it all quite clearly on the path they've taken). The film definitely looks intense to say the least and I'm desperately hoping they can finish the film faster and release it even sooner than March (a guy can hope can't he?). Just my two cents. Hoping to hear what the rest have to say.

Well, look at the pictures after it shows Leo and Raph squaring off, Leo's katanas are broken. Meaning Raph probably shattered them.

He probably got Leo some new swords, or repaired his old ones.

Yeah, it is sad that we can't have Mako back. But it'll work out ok. Same thing happened with Harry Potter and I quite like the new Dumbledore.

The only other person I think that could be a good replacement for Mako is Pat Morita. But he's dead too.

I was just thinking, since Mako has passed away and a new Splinter will be needed for the sequel, why not just get Kevin Clash? I mean, think about it, his popularity is there (Elmo) but he was the orginal Splinter. I doubt he'd charge a lot of money. It'd be perfect. I can't think of anyone else doing the voice.

Also, I didn't even notice Raph's shell scar...looks painful (can't wait to see how he got it). I don't know why Raph has Leo's swords but apparently they broke? Have to look at the pictures one more time.

Ok in house crew, my mistake, but these pics are definitly from that 40 min!

Btw, since this movie is tied with the previous movies, isnt it kinda weird that:

1. Raph has no scar on his cheek
2. Splinters ear is whole
3. (small detail I noticed, the TMNT have no nails)
TMNT is loosely tied with the previous 3 movies ('loosely' being the key word). It's not a direct sequel. Man, why is everyone having so much trouble grasping that concept?

Nope, it's not the same canister as the second movie. Look closely and you'll see the yellow stripes on the can. Only the can in the first movie had those yellow stripes, the ones in the second movie didn't have them. Looks like they didn't have anything from the second movie to remember by.

I don't think so. It looks broken already in the pic where it's in Raph's shell. Based on where the actual picture of the shuriken appears in the whole set, my guess is that Don takes it with him to whose ever apartment that is, where he seems to be doing research.

Random comment: They seem to have textures down really well for this movie; the Turtles' skin and Splinter's fur look real, and Casey's face has a kind of rough look to it that looks cool. But have you noticed the Turtles' bandannas look kind of like plastic? It's almost like a TMNT toy or something. They really didn't make them look very cloth-y.

Warhorse
12-29-2006, 01:32 PM
I kinda agree with Rooish on the masks. But they did a good job on darkening Leo's bandana when it starts to get soaked.

But, when I look at Splinter's robe. The black leather shoulder thingymajigs are so real looking, it's like I can almost reach through my computer and touch it.

I would agree with 8/9...but #8 is not Triceraton relatated. It just simply looks like an ancient scuba mask of some sort. Mainly for this reason, where are the eye holes?, because there would need to be an eye hole between the 2 'horn' holes, so im pretty sure its not a Triceraton mask.

#4 could be a Triceraton blaster, but doubtful, my guess is its some sort of speaker(dont ask me why it would be there, i have no idea haha). and i noticed one other too....

I know what your sayin, i agreed at first, but then i got looking at it again, and while the 3rd hole would be on the otherside of the helmet(and slightly visable), it still looks to thick to be a clear mask around any eyes. Again, im not completely doubting its Triceraton related, im just thinking its more of some sort of scuba gear.

I'm going to have to go with Jester on this one. That is clear glass. Look at it closley, the light reflecting of it gives it that kinda thick look.

Olus Kevin Munroe said there would be in-jokes to the comics as well, and anyone familiar with the comics would get that. So theres no doubt in my mind thats a Triceraton breather helmet.

Yeah, I'd say that's the sign that both of them crash through. My best guess here is that for whatever reason, and I haven't a clue what that reason is, Leo is peeved at Raph and goes chasing after him. That leads them to the rooftop where they fight. Raph *appears* to overtake Leo, and I don't think the generals enter the picture until then.

I guess it's possible that Leo doesn't like Raph's Nightwatcher persona, as that's what Raph's doing when Leo finds him. Maybe because the Nightwatcher has become publicly known?

Warhorse
12-30-2006, 06:09 PM
Hmmm. If that is what spurs the fight, it's gonna be harsh. You have Raph who likes to fight, and likes to help people out. I see where he is coming from, and it is honorable.

But then you have Leo who may be frightened that Raph's secret existence may be on the verge of being discovered, and in turn, will expose the entire family.

Exactly. Of course, ironically you've got Leo with no disguise openly swinging above cars as he chases Raph through China Town. (The guy in the truck in pic 105 is definitely getting a look at Leo.)

Kids movie here? Nah, I think it may be too deep for the 6 year olds, and I'm glad of it.

Too deep for them to fully appreciate probably, but there should be more than enough action for it to be enjoyable for anyone. I'm hoping the parents who go in with the kids see a movie more deep than they were expecting.

There was an early blurb about the movie after Comic Con that Leo, after touring the world for a year, actually agreed with Raphael that they shouldn't sequester themselves underground forever.

From the sequence of the images, it looks like Raph's going around in his Nightwatcher persona when he looks up and sees Leo staring at him from a rooftop. They go on a chase halfway across New York, Raph thinks he's lost him on the "Red Eye" building, but instead finds Leo behind him. Raph's black helmet comes off later on (Darth Vader-ish...). Leo tries to reason with him, but Raph isn't having it (look at the image with the two of them in profile with their weapons out; Raph's holding up his sais all ready to go--his chain gone for some reason--while Leo's swords are lowered). What happens next I have no idea, except I really wanna know where the hell Raph went during Leo's confrontation with the generals, and why later on when the turtles and their allies take on the Foot, Leo's nowhere to be found.

This movie has a huge amount of detail, all the shadows, reflections, blood vessels.. I LOVE IT!!

But I accidentally found something. In pic 155 where you see the whole gang looking at a beaten Max Winters, on a shiny polished floor. Leo totally has no reflection on the floor! Raph has!!...and the rest in standing in a darker section. But Leo is completely missing his reflection.

I feel that swearing is a very important aspect of the TMNT. And if I had any say in the making of this movie, I'd insist on the TMNT swearing at least once every twoandahalf minutes, because in all their previous incarnations the TMNT swore like truck drivers. Therefore it's only just that they swear in the new movie too, and they must do it a lot too. "Cowa-F***ing-Bunga Motherf***ing dudes!" absolutely must be in the movie at least three times.

Leo is a vampire, everyone knows that.

He's a vampire ninja Jedi. Now all he needs is a pair of elf ears and a pirate hat and he's completed his tour of the fandoms.

In all seriousness, though, the movie's not done (if it were, it'd be released this month), and I thought that some of the stills looked a bit unfinished compared to what we've seen in the trailer and teaser. They look like they need more shading and texture, like that aforementioned still, but other images looked complete and polished, especially the rain battle--there're some shots of Leo in there that look incredibly good. As anyone who's ever worked on computer art knows, the last thing you do in a digital creation is add the "special effects".

Oh crap. You don't think they'll leave a huge cliffhanger with Leo being alive or not, do you?

No, I think they reunite all happy at the end or near the end and somewhere along the way Raphael gives Leo his swords. The cliffhanger will most likely be OMG Shredder Returns!

He does! It's one of the first things I noticed when I saw the first stills. In one of the pics where they're all in right profile you can't help but zero in on how Raph's neck is a lot thicker than any of his brothers'. In the new 'toon, he was always working out with barbells and such; it's a nice touch.

As for the fighting...it's what they do. On the other hand, you don't know how much Raph cares about you until he threatens to beat your skull in. As for that 'to the death' thing...gee, I think Splinter would kill them both first if they did something like that.

01-02-2007, 10:06 PM
Hey, same here! I was a fan of the original toon, and I admit that moving from there to the turtles' other incarnations is a bit jarring. For one thing, their personalities are a bit more pronounced and multi-layered--I remember years ago when I saw the first movie and was startled by how much of an a$$hole Raphael was, because I was so used to his easygoing, wisecracking self in the original series. :lol: But then I got sucked into the new 'toon and realized from the comics that they'd captured and dimensionalized his personality nicely, and I'm really looking forward to this new movie to do the same for all of the turtles.

Cascadia
01-02-2007, 10:09 PM
Raph and Leo have always fought one another in every genre of TMNT, except in the 1980s cartoon due to clashing personalities and Raph likes to challenge Leo's authority. When you watch the new cartoon, you would recognize what we are talking about. A good example is in the Shredder Strikes part I.

Mikey: "A fight between Leo and Raph?"
Donnie: "Oh, I did not see that coming."

If you go to the official website and look at the profiles between Leo and Raph, you would understand even more.

Yeah, basically...

Leo is very strait-laced, by the book, very obediant. While Raph is a rebelious and hot-headed loner. Leo sometimes feels Raph is too out of control and his reckless abandon and loner attitude puts himself and the team in danger, and Raph feels that Leo is too uptight and too afraid to take chances, and he used to be jealous of Leo being the leader. So they're fights range from simple bickering to full on fist fights. But they are really close.

01-03-2007, 01:37 PM
Yeah, I'm pretty sure Raph and Leo are fighting over the Nightwatcher thing. As for the ending, I'm confused. Apparently Winters isn't the bad guy we thought he was and going by the pictures, Karai seems to be in truce with the guys. If anyone has any guesses, let's hear them. Concerning the Shredder's return, it's been stated countless times that he won't be here. Yet I still believe his presence will be there (that too spirtual?). I don't think he'll appear but maybe a Batman Begins type ending (with the Joker card)...that would be a nice touch. I'm thinking a shot of the trophy room and all of a sudden Shredder's helmet falls or something subtle like that. If he does appear, it'll be all flashback.

Roseangelo
01-03-2007, 02:00 PM
Based on the handful of plot synopsises I've read on various pages, I *think* it might be the case that while Winters is responsible for the monster invasion, the whole thing ends up backfiring on him and he ends up fighting against the monsters himself.

I'm not exactly sure of the Foot's involvement, but perhaps everyone gets together to fight the monsters.

I doubt that they fight to the death. It would be pretty bad to kill one of the TMNT, since none of them have died in other incarnations (not the ones that matter, anyway). Also, Leo and Raph love each other, they just get caught up in the heat of an argument. None of the Turtles would kill another deliberately, although they get carried away (in the original comics, Raph went after Mike with a wrench or something, and in the heat of the moment he wanted to kill Mike but after the fight, he felt terrible and thought there must be something wrong with him).

Leo is very strait-laced, by the book, very obediant. While Raph is a rebelious and hot-headed loner.

So they're fights range from simple bickering to full on fist fights. But they are really close.

I think maybe you touched on possible reasons why Leo and Raph have that fight on the rooftop. I don't think it's strictly the Nightwatcher issue--maybe that was the initial reason, but I bet that's only the surface. Leo's just gotten back after a year of globe-trotting, and Raphael's been forced to stay underground; I bet Raph's just waiting to unload a year's worth of frustration and maybe envy.

But like you said, they're really close, too--I think part of Raph's anger just may be the part that misses his brother. Personally, I can't wait to see how they make up. ("So, uh, about earlier...you know." "Yeah, um. Right back atcha.")

While the turtles have never fought to the death, there were some close calls that I have seen in the new toon. In Meet Casey Jones, Raphael looses his temper with Michelangelo and nearly clobbers him with a metal pipe before Leo and Don hauled him off.
And in The Shredder Strikes, Leo and Raph start fighting over a sword that was given to Leo by the Shredder, and Leo flings Raph over the roodtop ledge. If it wasn't for Raph's quick thinking of saving himself, that could have been a fatal fall, and on Leo's hands.

And in The Shredder Strikes, Leo and Raph start fighting over a sword that was given to Leo by the Shredder, and Leo flings Raph over the roodtop ledge. If it wasn't for Raph's quick thinking of saving himself, that could have been a fatal fall, and on Leo's hands.

Yeah, but I don't think Leo deliberately threw Raph off... he freaked out right after, and snapped back into reality when he realised he might have killed Raph.

Wouldn't Don need a breast stap to help hold his Bo in place as does Leo with his Katanas? I remember in the movies, Don had the breast strap. Just wondering?

:lol: But...um, bos really are that long. I remember my friends--who take martial arts--commenting about how short Don's bo is in the 'toons. I like the accuracy.

Yeah, I remember that. I don't think he was aiming to throw Raph off the roof. The roof just happened to end short of Raph's area of impact.

You know, some people can have some really good fun with this line of talk here. Sorry I brought it up, I never intended it to be an innuendo.:lol:

Short of impact? WTF? Good thing Raph did have the best weapon that day, huh!;)

in the majority of the TMNT genres, Donnie does not have a breast strap for his bo staff except in the first 3 movies.

Everything anyone says here has the potential to be an innuendo. :)

I meant, he miscalculated and forgot that the roof ended just short of where Raph was being tossed, that's all! :lol:

I personally think Don would need one - or at least a better (or existent) "sheath" to hold the bo. Anyone who's tried (:embarass:...) knows a polished stick is not going to stay in your belt very easily... especially when he's trying to hold it against a hard, convex surface (his shell, that is).

Ha! :lol: It's weird, you think he'd act more overtly "tough guy" to overcompensate, too. Yeah, sometimes his bo is drawn freakily short in various versions of the TMNT. And Raph's sai are drawn too small, too. Although I think they might be a tad too big in the new movie... but at least they look rounded, and not like blades.

Something else that bothers me is how often they show Don's bo bending., like when he does a pole-vault move or something. Um, have they ever seen a bo? I don't think it could bend. It's extremely polished and hard and dense wood.

AFAIK, from what I recall, bo are between 5 and 6 ft long, depending on the height of the person using it. Anything shorter than that, (4 ft) is called a jo.
I'd assume the bo Don would use would be 5 ft, since he's not much taller than that anyway...

Rooish
01-05-2007, 12:19 PM
Well, if his bo is supposed to be his height, then... yeah, the animators didn't do their research.

or they decided to go for the standard 6 inches, despite his size.

Neither did Kevin and Peter. Thats why they call Leo's swords katanas, when they're really just large ninjatos. But we love it anyway.

Since we're on the topic of weapon sizing, I'd like to throw out that a correctly sized sai, from tip to tip, should (approximately) reach from the crook of your elbow to the end of your middle finger. In some pictures it may seem like Raph's got some monster-sized daggers, but they actually are proportioned close to the real thing.

yeah, that is right, i did some research on them when i decided to buy a set of my own (man i love them things! they look spectactular mounted on my wall)

i also got a bo (which is my height 6'0) like they recommended, and nunchukas....but i dont have a very good sword to represent leo's yet (still looking), lol if anyone has any ideas on where i can get one that looks like leo's, let me know .....i know its off topic, but i'm pretty random like that, lol

Thanks for making my day! This has got to be one of the funniest paragraphs I have seen on this board.

If only it did take just a plain belt to hold a stick in place!:roll:

But really, without a second strap to hold the top part of the Bo, wouldn't it be swinging in all directions?

My brother has a bo staff which he got after he got his black belt. It is the traditional height of 6 feet. He got it when he was about 5'6". It is a nice piece of wood. It looks relatively similar to Donnie's in that picture.

So this was confirmed as the 40 minute trailer or whatever it was shown at some press conference right?:P

Basically, does that mean that the last picture ends at about 40 minutes in? So I could look at all these pics, and not basically know the ending, or latter part of the movie...right?

I bought a nunchaku, a sai and a bo... I'm only 5'0'' so the bo is a little long for me... I need to cut a foot off. The sai I bought is a little too small (I didn't do my research) but then my brother bought another for me or a good size. And lighter for some reason. :) Also, my nunchaku is cushioned and hollow... I don't even know if you can get real wooden nunchaku in Canada. Someday I'll actually put together a full TMNT arsenal.

My brother has a beautiful ninjato... it looks like Leonardo's but with a black blade, and some dragon carvings in the hilt. I seem to be able to find the same one everywhere. Eventually I will get two of them, without the black blades... it's gonna take a lot out of my wallet, though.

And Thwomp, I agree that Raph's sais in the new movie look to be the right length... they just seem a little wide to me. Do you see that?

Thwomp
01-06-2007, 12:47 PM
Oh, absolutely. They don't look similar to the ones used in the live-action movies - more like from the cartoons.

BTW, I've found that www.tigerstrike.com has a pretty good selection of various weapons, including those used by the TMNT, if anyone's interested. Or even www.swordsonline.com if you're looking for ninjato/katana like Leo's.

No no no. The 40 minute showing was NOT to the press, it was to people who are working on the movie.

The pictures could be from any part of the movie.

according to Kevin the pics were the result of a miscommunication as to what was suppose to be the release of promo images. Makes since considering all the pics were pulled only for a few of them to be re-released this week. He also mentioned that some of them were unfinished shots.

As far as we know, yes. Only two of the monsters are shown in any of the images, and we know there are supposed to be 13.
[Director, Kevin Munroe,] also mentioned that some of them were unfinished shots.
True. But, I smell misdirection. The logical choice is that he's referring to the pic where Leo's reflection is missing. I wouldn't at all be surprised if he's trying to throw us off the trail and that boy-crazy vampire gave Leo a kiss. But, inversely, I also wouldn't be surprised if I'm full of it. :embarass:
