They've pushed the date back again.

It's the fifth movie, yes. But it certainly isn't the fifth installment in a series, as "part 5" insinuates.

Total vote of no-confidence on the part of the studio. You can tell a lot about how they view their product by when they choose to release it (for example, any horror movie worth anything comes out before Halloween, while any and every horror film released in February is always garbage).

It's smart thinking on their part. TMNT would get MURDERED going against Transformers 4 and the others the article mentions. Plus, since shooting wrapped seemingly so quickly, it would seem that more of it than we thought may be CGI, so it's going to require a lengthy editing and post-production process.

Bottom line, if they really believed they had a blockbuster, they'd release it alongside them, not a month later when they'll have no competition. The movie's bottom line will be better for it, but the move DOES expose that they're still crossing their fingers and hoping for the best with this one.

It's a similar case with Sin City 2, which got pushed back for the sake of having a quality movie. I'm not sure if pushing TMNT 5's date back will result in there being improvements that wouldn't have been made otherwise, though.

[Davetello]

If part of the reason for the delay is to make the final product better then that's great. I highly doubt it will be, though.

They have a lot of competition that year, makes sense I guess.

[Shark_Blade]

No problem, take all the time they need. :)

What if I told you, it's the sixth movie.

Nickelodeon was calling the BooyakaShowdown a "movie event" in the commercials, too.

so basically, anything longer than 30 minutes=movie

[chrisdude]

I don't make the rules, but they did call it a movie.

[CyberCubed]

Nick calls all their 1-hour live-action shows movies too. Its nothing new.

Ummm...there's already a thread about this:

Also, it's not "part 5". It's a new continuity all it's own.

Edit: You even posted in that thread... six times... why make a new one if you already knew people were discussing it?

Look at the times the threads were made. He made this thread not knowing there was another one, it's just not been merged or deleted.

Ok, didn't notice when this thread had been made. That said, why hasn't this been deleted/merged yet?
