I never heard of The Raid. Do you have any clips on the interney you could post? Never caring much for the black and white comics I don't want "face crushing violence" but not Power Ranger choreographed fights either. Its good to see its not being shelved but looked at more carefully.

[Cure]

That's dumb. Why would they use Indonesian styles?

[Candy Kappa]

would someone who's not a martial art fanatic notice the difference?

Here's a clip from The Raid, was lucky enough to see it, a very well done action picture and wonderfully choreographed fight sequences:

I'd put it in here but for some reason embedding's not working right for me:

Looks pretty good to me, but I bet there won't be as much blood.

The indonesian style would the action they want I guess....and the raid proves its appealing to audiences...

[Green Machine]

That's friggin awesome! And I kind of want to see The Raid now too!

[MikeandRaph87]

Hmmm....I like the cherography and set up of the fight though no so much the turtles killing. I think it could be worked to suit the script quite well though.:tgrin:

It's gonna be interesting seeing that style adapted to Japanese weapons, but I know it can be done. It's pretty neat how more practical styles are being given a little bit of flash and then being used in movies nowadays. I'm also glad that this new Turtles film won't overly rely on Taekwondo like the old ones did.

[Powder]

Pretty kickass stuff, I support it.

Personally, I prefer the fight choreography in this scene:

Great. I cant wait to see one of the Turtles jam a fluorescent light bulb tube into someones neck.

Interesting. I can't say that I'm familiar with either movie, but the overall positive reaction I've seen to this news has me thrilled. I'll have to check out at least one of these movies sometime.

Pretty cool. As Goongasnootch said, it should be interesting to see this fighting style with the turtle's choice of weapons.

Me too !, but hopefully it will be an LED energy efficient lightbulb, to keep up with times and what not...:P
