I noticed that someone added "K. Todd Freeman" to the cast list on the IMDB TMNT 2014 page. He is listed as playing "Dr. Baxter Stockman". To corroborate this, I did a bit of Googling, and found a reference to him playing in TMNT 2014 on this web page: http://www.broadwayworld.com/article/NYTW-Presents-FETCH-CLAY-MAKE-MAN-Starring-Ray-Fisher-K-Todd-Freeman-More-823-20130719-page2

Seems like it might possibly be legit. Fly Baxter would be pretty "kewl" in live action............. :teek:

Well it says the article was posted on Friday, July 19, 2013, and I don't remember K. Todd Freeman being on the TMNT 2014 IMDB page at that point. So I don't think it was pulled from IMDB......... If it's true that Baxter is in this, then Krang will probably be saved for the sequel, and Baxter will be the one who supplies Shredder with "tech" (hopefully mousers).

If Baxter is in this I'd be pleasantly surprised. It would be kind of cool to see them go a route that hasn't been done in film yet. I just worry that they will put way to much in this.

I wouldn't mind if it was a relatively brief set up to the sequel, setting up for the mouser storyline.

It was never officially announced that she was actually cast or will be playing kari, The only "proof" was that she was "seen" on set. The proof being a blurry photo of a female foot member with red in her hair. Can this be accurately identified as Noji No but its assumed to be correct.

As for Freeman being on set no. he was never spotted on set.

Point still Stands Noji is still technically A Rumor. Seeing as No official Source had come out and Proven or debunk this rumor. You may argue that there are Photos of her on set. But those photo cannot be used to accurately identify the female in the photo.

So if Noji as Kari was a rumor, who people seem to think is known fact and common knowledge. Then the Freeman as Baxter rumor could very well be just as plausible as the Noji Rumor. And seeing as they were both added to IMDB at or around the same time, possibly by the same anonymous individual. It very well Possible.

I doubt the canon of the Lego sets after the Iron Man 3 sets, where we got a active Mandarin that wasn't the hoax pretend actor. There's even a "final showdown" set where Iron Man faces off Mandarin in a mini tank vehicle.

And by the fuzzy quality pictures, it could be rifles they hold. Probably swords, but still.

Edit. Never mind, that is swords. Still, Lego canon is dubious.

For Lego it is??? You're really that adamant that Lego has no idea what they're doing. And that this movie will never see ninja foot ever???

I'm just giving evidence??? and your guys and digging so deep to disprove this. Why??? Because this movie really has to be as terrible as you say?

I mean come on you are the one mocking me. Saying that I was looking for evidence, and finding none. I found some and to any Lego fan its pretty simple The foot have swords. Thus they should have swords in the movie, they give them accessories to match what they could and have used in the TV and movies.

Lego has gone out of there way to create fabulous TMNT sets that are accurate and all around great sets.

Yes yes they have certainly looks like a normal hand held mace to me one a ninja would be sure to use.

Lego just isn't a accurate source, that's all. The Iron Man 3 sets proves that with the final showdown of Iron Man vs. Mandarin and Mandarin being in the helicopter attacking Tonys home.

The playmates Movie Foot figure do not come with a sword according to sources we've read, they will come with a rifle, a hand gun and a knife.

This has nothing to do with the complaints about the live itself, but the usage of Lego for reference. The cartoon sewer play set from Lego had a Bradford minifig and a exploding wall feature. It's all for play value.



Yes yes they have certainly looks like a normal hand held mace to me one a ninja would be sure to use.

I just can't believe that you're so sure this movie will fail that every amount of evidence no matter how substantial, is silly to you.

Oh, you wanna play that way. Okay, I'll play. The Lego katana swords are as long as a entire Lego mini figure, no normal katana is that long. Mikey's chucks? The chain is massive and way too long compared to his body, and then there's the handles that are as big as Eskrima sticks, not very accurate on scale there either. Raph's Sai are massive as well in comparison.

And all that is moot, because Lego is ( I think you have noticed this by now) heavily stylized figures, scale is an issue. And shock oh shock, they don't need to use the exact same build as Azog's mace, they could use a shorter handle. There is many ways of making a mace instead of using a flail, but that's not the problem. The flail situation was just to showcase that Lego might not be a reliable source for looking at what accessories the characters will use in the proper media.

Lego just isn't a accurate source, that's all. The Iron Man 3 sets proves that with the final showdown of Iron Man vs. Mandarin and Mandarin being in the helicopter attacking Tonys home.

The Figures are one wave of potentially multiple wave worth of movie figures and play sets.

The point is the mace he uses in the movie is a much larger then a basic hand held mace. That is why it apears so large in comparison to the the figure. The Point I'm making is generally Lego uses the "flail" as there "mace" in most sets. But for the most part in license theme sets, the figures generally have the correct accessories.

Fact is the sword-ed Foot ninja is in two sets the other set looks as if the two foot Do in fact have rifles. They look to either be brick built or their newer "firing" guns (the ones they use in the new starwars set) Why have both??? I just think its odd to use the couple of set of photo from the Movie set as the end all be all Source for what the movie will hold throughout the entire movie.

There has been evidence there will be Japanese aspect and "ninja" involved with the foot. But certain people argue that its not going to happen, that there is no evidence. I have given evidence and every time I do it is cast off and called stupid or false or grasping at straws. I know Lego this is something I'm SUPER confident about.

I understand My post are hard to Read, I dont like making excesses so I wont I admit I'm terrible at typing, and I'm sorry you feel I'm and idiot who doesn't know what he is talking about. I know very little about superfluous things to me. I know stupid amount of stupid crap, but of those things I know turtles, I know Lego, and I know movies.

But, the counter point is. Lego makes sets for play value. Accuracy might vary. The Lego movie Foot might have swords because they are toys, it doesn't prove or disprove what variation of weaponry the Foot will be using in the movie.

Maybe they do use swords in the film, maybe they don't. ( it'll be pretty boring if they don't if it's only melee weapons vs. guns) the problem is using Lego sets for evidence of what's to be in the movie. They can add lots of things that aren't present in the film for added play features. It's done before.


Edit. And it's not about you or your typing ability, I'm just arguing about using Lego sets for 100% accuracy! when they do take liberties.

But when it comes to their TMNT licensed them they keep it with in the bounds of what they may use in the show and or movie. Iron man was different and really the only Lego theme to have had something so completely different from the source.

I'm just saying while Lego is not 100% accurate it can give some insight into whats going to happen in the movie, and that includes the individuals within the sets. The truck set comes with Leo, Raph, April, Karai, and Two foot it looks from the pictures that all three Karai and the to foot will have ninja style weapons. if they were to be the military they would most likely be given gun and weapons Similar to the MOS lego sets

I could be wrong but I Doubt it.

But certain Individual have to admit that there is evidence that the foot will not just be "Black ops military bros" there know enough evidence to prove this is not fact

But they have taken liberties with previous TMNT sets. The evidence of Foot carrying swords aren't all that strongly as compared if Playmates Movie Foot had a sword.

If anything it leans more to "Maybe" then "Confirmed".

And people are using the karai figure as a confirmation because Lego is using Karai in a set. It works both ways. What is it can you use Legos as a source of confirmation or not???

Karai was speculated way earlier then the Lego sets, by spotting a woman dressed in combat-like clothes that wasn't Fox in the set pictures, and Minae Noji confirming her activity with the movie back in October.(?)

I'd stop if I were you. I'm going to. It's really not worth it.

He's going to keep jizzing over this movie before even seeing a single frame of it no matter what.

It's sad really.

yes i get that but go any where and they feel it is confirmed she is in fact Karai Via the lego sets with Karai in them

Seems like it is confirmed that the female Foot is Karai, by reports and other sites. Brickpedia lists the female Foot member in the movie as Karai.

In the set 79116 Big Rig Snow Getaway.

"Many of these site could be change by anyone" As you have said before about other casting. It's not official confirmation its speculation.

DO I think She is Karai yes of course I do I'm not stupid. I'm just saying one Opinion Isn't better then the other just because More people Seem to think it's "official"

EDIT You edited your post. I already Said the set was confirmed as Karai and two foot soldiers.

The only things Confirmed Officially Are Noji is in the film as unknown character. LEgo set has Karai. This means movie Should Have Karai as a character because the lego set has Karai in it. But as you have said Lego is not Confirmation and "messes up" cannon. By that theory its not even 100% confirmed She(karai) will in fact be in the movie

Candy Kappa

Yes, Noji was confirmed by her and by pictures on set, that she is Karai is not confirmed by the Lego sets, as that was theorized way before there evens as pictures of movie based Lego sets.

There aren't that many characters that Noji could play that isn't Karai. Pimikio is extremely obscure and lotus Blossom isn't as well known as Karai, it's just common sense to assume she is playing Karai, unless they have made a new character for the movie.

So again, swords are dubious as we havent seen that anywhere else, Karai/female Foot member, not so much.

I get that And I understand its all speculation But there are individuals on this sit that wont even entertain the notion, that the speculation is possible. Pretty much shot down before I even say anything. That's what is so frustrating. And why I feel like it's next to hair pulling to even come up with and talk about ideas for this movie. Its either idiotic or this movie is so messed up there is no chance there are good aspect. with some people.

Ive tried making threads for Positive feedback and discussion and it quickly turns into "Nothing can fix this crap" "let it fail" "they dont have any idea how to make or market a movie" "WHOA there still no marketing this DEFINITELY means they dont have faith in the movie" or "because the haven't started marketing it means there is something wrong". Even when people started in with good speculation and it pushes people away from the boards. Seriously look at the all time high was back in Jan know its not even a tiny fraction of that. And all the people who were positive have just stop posting



Apparently I have...
