a fact that needs 2 be stated

[Gokhan]

No matter who directs a tmnt movie, who stars in it, or how it's handled...There will always be people complaining.

I'd rather have a lot of movies be made an them be so/so than not have my favorite characters ever brought on screen.

All of u who say boycott the film aren't fans. If u don't like who or how the movie is being done by an handled simply keep your negativity to yourself. The movie will be made by some who took the steps in life 2 put themselves In a position 2 bring it alive in their "vision ". So accept the fact that since u are not I. That position it will never be done as you see it in your head.

I'm not a Micheal bay fan for how he originally wanted 2 change the story but hell I was going 2 see my favorite childhood movie brought 2 life again. As long as he doesn't last air bender it or do evolution I'm behind him 100%.

[Anton Chigurh]

I feel ya dog...

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

I ain't boycotting the movie.

In fact, I'm looking forward to the movie.

[pdizzle]

This is some real **** right here.....100% agreed. 8)

[Kurai]

Yes, there will always be people complaining whenever movies like this come out; you can't please everyone. Heck, when the original X Men film came out, people were complaining about the characters not having their multi coloured spandex costumes like they had in the comics.

However, I just don't like the way that Platinum Dunes appear to be handling this franchise. I'd rather have no movie than an awful movie if I'm honest. For example, Naughty Dog were planning to reboot Jak and Daxter, but they decided not to go ahead with it because it barely resembled Jak and Daxter and they felt they were just slapping the name on for marketing purposes. While it sucks that there's no new Jak and Daxter game, I'd rather have no game than a game that barely resembles the franchise.

Platinum Dunes don't appear to be putting enough effort into making a good movie, and are just slapping the name on the marquee to make money out of the franchise

Really? So, because I have no interest in seeing a bunch of hacks take some characters I've loved for over 25 years and essentially piss all over them on the big screen I'm not a real fan?

Christ, you're even worse than Cybercubed. Oh, and by the way, learn to write properly - textspeak has no place here.

Not to start drama But you don't know the highlighted part unless you see the movie i think that's more the point.

People believe they have seen enough to judge the movie

And i know you don't like which version there using as inspiration so your not really the target audience here. But you can't truly say whats in bold unless you actually see the movie. You can't truly judge a book with out reading it, you can't judge a cd with out listening to it, you cant Judge a comic without reading it.

I respect you thought on not wanting to see it you have your reasons. But to truly judge something you need the whole picture, to accurately formulate an accurate opinion, other wise you just have opinions on bits and pieces of a whole, and that "whole" could take those bits and pieces and create something great, but you wont know for a fact until you have that whole picture.

Also I do agree. There are always people to complain even with the best of movies, there will be those that dont agree with what is being done in come with anything. you can't make everyone happy, it is just no possible.

Bulletproof logic right there.

...though, there are fewer people complaining when it's directed by a good direction, written by a good writer, and made with good actors. Oh, and yes, by any other film company then Michael Bay's.

But look at the bright side of it, at least, it's not directed by Zack Snyder.

[BubblyShell22]

Wow. Really? So, I'm not allowed to dislike the direction this movie is going and if I do, I'm not a real fan for being positive about it? You, sir, are an idiot. Sometimes I wonder why I even bother coming here anymore with people like you here.

I'm kinda joking so don't get to upset :)

[samxsteal]

...though, there are fewer people complaining when it's directed by a good direction, written by a good writer, and made with good actors. Oh, and yes, by any other film company then Michael Bay's. Thats not true, Just about every comic book movie has haters people hate on the avengers, people hate on Ironman, people hate on hulk, people hate on Captain America, People hate on Thor, Xmen, spider-man, Superman, Batman, Green lantern, Wonder Woman. Seriously just about any comic book movie has haters it just come with the territory.

But look at the bright side of it, at least, it's not directed by Zack Snyder.
-_^ Really :trolleye: lol

This thread sucks, go jump in a cesspool.

I'm not upset with you, Anton. I'm just upset at these people who state that just because I don't like the direction a movie is going that I'm not a "true fan" because "true fans" are supposed to like everything that's thrown at them. Sorry, that's not true and I stand by the fact that I dislike the direction the movie is going. As I've stated, I'll still see the movie once just to see whether it's good or not, but if it bombs, I'm not bothering with it again.

Admittedly, some of the complaints aren't justified, but I still think it's BS to say I'm not a fan because I don't like everything that has to do with TMNT.

As long as he doesn't last air bender it or do evolution I'm behind him 100%. but what if they do dragonball evolution or last airbender it though. if it looked like things were going in that direction to you would you be ok with paying to support it. You're ok with a lot of so/so movies would you be ok with a lot of horrible ones. I wouldn't be. I'd rather never see them brought to life on screen again then have them be mocked and ridiculed. What's the point of having characters I love on the screen if I don't think they're being done justice. And no just because someones paid their dues in hollywood doesn't mean I need to accept their "vision." Who can say if they have any respect for the franchise or care about what they're doing beyond a payday. I'm well aware that its impossible to please everyone but that doesn't mean people shouldn't be allowed to express negativity if they don't like the way something looks. Its up to you to decide if their issues matter to you or not.if you're excited about what they're doing with this movie then by all means go see it by I don't think anybody should throw their support behind something they don't agree with out of brand loyality. It's not being a fan to take whatever they give because its better than nothing. That's called being a sucker.

Yea I agree with that, case and point the only thing I love more then tmnt is Batman( I'm obsessed I have a "batman" room lol) but you think I liked the Schumacher films?? HELL NO lol

I agree with yal though there is different kinds of fans some are just glad there going back to the big screen(me) and some that dislike it from the way it's promo, design etc. but I don't think that means one set of fans is more of a "true" fan then the other. It is what it is.

[Donatello19]

Dude...people will complain about anything...and I mean ANYTHING.

See is not that yopu HAVE to love every aspect of a movie its that you should Appreciate the fact that they are atleast trying to reach other potential fans. Say what you will About transformers But they did bring copious amounts of new fans to the franchise and there is nothing wrong with that.

And at-least you give the benefit of the doubt and actually see it, and then make a judgment. Some people just wont even think about seeing it.

[ToTheNines]

What exactly is the fact that needs stated? I just hear a lot of opinions.

And people complaining about complaining.

[Candy Kappa]

People that hate The last Airbender movie aren't REAL fans!

[Sumac]

True fans, toy fans...tired meaningless cliche created by people who wanted to feel special. And nothing more.

Being fan doesn't mean you obligated to like every single thing released under the banner of the franchise. It's just stupid.

[ObiWanFan4life]

People that hate The last Airbender movie aren't REAL fans!

Then neither are people who hate Dragonball Evolution. :roll:

[chrisdude]

"All of u who say boycott the film aren't fans." = You're not a true fan unless you like everything TMNT.

If some people feel like they don't deserve their money they shouldn't give it to them. Its up to them to sell you on what they've created. Period. If you think they haven't done that why pay them because you hope they might prove you wrong. As far as giving them the benefit of the doubt. Why? They're not doing this completely for the fans. There's a paycheck in it for
them. Whose to say what's the bigger motivation here. Maybe they are dedicated to making a movie that pays respect to the franchise and puts everything great about it on display. Or maybe they just want to make a decent action movie with a big enough name attached to lure people in and line their pockets. We don't know yet because we haven't seen enough. Until we do they don't deserve anythong

That is not always true :lol:
Miranda Cosgrove was found by a talent rep/agent when she was a little girl while singing at a restaurant with her family. Some people just get lucky and get gold handed to them on their lap. Thats the problem I have with this director he hasn't made any good movies, but only Mediocre (Mediocre=Average). This is my concern.

And as far as everyone complaining its just freedom of speech and isn't that what everyone does on the internet???A bunch of people get together and bash something :lol:

You say this as if these "good writers" and "good directors" don't have flops. A person who has made a previous good film could make a trash one. A person who previously made a trash film could make a great 1

[SwiftNinjaFox]

So let me see if I understand....

Unless you're going to praise the movie, you shouldn't voice your opinion. That about right?

Because y'know, it took the rights completely changing hands and reverting back to the original owners for Daredevil to ever get another shot at film. :/

And I'm pretty sure it's not fair to say that real fans should have loved the 70s/80s Marvel films or otherwise they aren't real fans.

This is sort of an area where I have to look at Greg "Ghostcrawler" Street and how he handled all the hatred and complaining from World of Warcraft players. "It's actually better that they're upset and vocal about why they're upset. That shows they care. If they just didn't say anything, that indicates they don't even care and then you're really in a bad position." (Paraphrased)

People that hate The last Airbender movie aren't REAL fans!

IT HURTS! IT BURNS US!!!!
