Given how many revisions the TMNT movies went through, I was hoping someone knew of any of the scripts online. Also, after seeing the production work on the aborted 4th live-action movie, Im also curious if anyone knows about any more stuff like that around?

Somebody had the screenplay for the first TMNT film years ago. Though, I'm not sure if it is in digital form. But they did post scans.

I wanna say Kevin Eastman released his early copies of Secret of the Ooze and TMNT III for auction. The contents have been kept secret it would seem, though.

And Peter Laird did post his own proposed ideas for Secret of the Ooze on his blog:

not final, first draft sorta. its a good read. has some dumb elements to it, but would overall make a good movie (if you can get past Schrader and maybe the 4 orbs/gems).

i think the movie will be pretty close to that script but definitely not exact.

Here's the thread where a member, Weapon X, posted some details about the screenplay. It was the shooting script, I believe, but there are some interesting details, as some of the dialogue was a little different, and, naturally, it included some deleted scenes.

I don't believe anyone has converted any of the scripts into PDF's or digital formats. However, you CAN buy several of the drafts online from such sites as planetmegamall.com

The first film is very well written, a good read. The others... are good if you want to study what to avoid in screenwriting.

Scripts for the '87 toon are on ebay, at least the ones by Francis Moss.
