And we are finally able to see some details from their weapons. Especially leos
Katana looks great! :D

These are pretty awesome.....

[TMNT is cooler than MOTU]

Not too shabby. Reminds me a lot of that little bit from the cartoon intro where they all grip their respective weapons. It's kind of odd that they have colored wrappings on the poster but they're white in the movie.

I would've been over the moon if we got something like this though.

Thing is, that would have forced them to prominently display the Turtles' faces on theater walls, and that's not where I imagine they want to focus attention right now.

I'm also positive that they have zero desire to appeal to any TMNT fans outside of the Fred Wolf series.

As much as I enjoy dumping on this movie, I'm pleased to see they at least made a nod to the cartoon with these posters. I wish they would broaden their target, it's nice to see they care about any existing fans at all.

[fridaynightdestination]

I think their cool, but I would've preferred a more official poster, rather than character posters.

[xChri5x]

AWWW YEaaah.

[The Boston Ninja Turtle]

as awesome as these are, i wouldnt read to much into this proving they are the lead in the movie....Rouge,Angel and a ton of other one off mutants had their own posters for X3..Angel even wore an X suit

as well as Bumblebee,Megatron and Optimus for transformers


i mean i think they are awesome..and they def need to be on my wall..its a nice nod to the OT

[chrisdude]

Sweet! I can't wait to see them in theaters.

[Shred Head]

Those look great except for Mikey's its like they forgot to make a chain on his nunchuks that or its really short. Too bad they ****ed that one up this was the first rtime this movie shocked me and didn't make me disappointed.

The posters make a sharp impression on me !! 8)

[massakre]

I love it.. I need that Raph one in my mancave!

[GeneralTragg]

Raph's fingers look less nasty than Mikey's do in the trailer, maybe they are tweeking the turtles to look more appealing...

I don't think the posters follow the movie CGI model 110%. The wrappings on their hands aren't colored in the movie.

Most modern style Nunchaku have shorter chains or rope.

[marcelangelo]

I didn't notice that… that's retarded. Ugh.

that is not a mistake actually..it was rather a mistake of the cartoons often depicting nuchuku with such a long chain.if you ever handle a nuchuku you will find their chains to be much shorter than what you are used to from television..

personally I seem to be the only one this time who doesn't like these posters...no specific thing(apart from some errors in anatomy of hands I am sure and leos katana looking not really good in my oppinion) just the idea is a little often seen I think...

[SwiftNinjaFox]

This is what I would have expected to see around holidays 2013 if not last summer. The early teaser posters.

Still surprised to see them showing teaser posters exactly 4 months prior, but so be it.

Let me be clear: I'm not saying this is bad, these posters are bad, or anything like that. I'm just saying I'm surprised.

They do look pretty awesome as teaser posters, though! Glad Donnie's doesn't look like it's metal or complicated.

http://www.prochux.com/about-lee-barden.html

If "most" were the case, I would expect there to be a 2 chain pic somewhere in a google image search.....nope. They do look really short there. And honestly, people are going to expect longer because Bruce Lee > all. ;)

[Bry]

The posters look, y'know... fine. Nothing exceptional, but they do a decent job as character teasers. The CGI models seem a bit "cheaper" than I'd expect from the movie itself, but like others have said, they're likely not using the same ones for these. But still - four months to go and they're really not showing off those character designs. Usually I'd expect a basic teaser poster like this much further in advance.

For the sake of comparison, I really prefer the character posters from the 2007 movie:

http://s29.postimg.org/a5p4h6m6f/tmntposters.jpg

They did a great job showing off the character designs and style of the movie while also giving them each a solid personality.

Pro Chux..are not the standard just a brand of them.like Nike or Reebok.....i own 3 pairs of chucks and none are that short

[GeneralTragg]

Chain length balances speed power and control, shorter chain greater speed, less power. longer chain less speed greater power, and somewhere in the middle for best control.

[Raph's Girl]

Really liking the posters. Particularly the intricate designs in the hilt of Leo's Katana.

Yeah, in addition to that, the weapons don't match perfectly with the ones we've been seeing. This is very similar to what is in the film, but isn't a direct representation.

Bruce lee is the best there ever was and ever will be but you can do a larger range of attacks and have more control with shorter rope/ chain As a practitioner I can attest to that. You may get more "power" with long chain but you sacrifice control, Lee barden Is the leading person on Nunchaku at this point in time. All martial arts demo groups use "speed" chuck Lighter chucks with shorter rope. And of course if you just googlt Nunchaku you going to get the classic chucks and people do still use longer chain and rope but most modern martial arts groups use the shorter chain and ropes

These are teaser Posters not Character posters we even had a long discussion about what people would have like to see and someone post pretty much the exact thing we just got and it was deemed except-able yet these aren't SMH

[The Boston Ninja Turtle]

looking at these again part of me wishes they siwtched off hands between turtles...like 2 left 2 right

[RaphAndDonnie]

I think I actually prefer posters like these as opposed to full body ones. It's probably because I don't like the faces but, nonetheless, these are nice posters.

[SwiftNinjaFox]

i was about to post that myself...are they stolen? splinter make them?

I was working on a fan novel of TMNT once that was going to take away a little bit of the honor and give them a little bit of a dirty underhanded side (because really, they're teenagers being raised to murder someone and ninja aren't exactly traditional nice guys).

I had always intended their weapons to come from a museum that Splinter burglarized to get them. In, get the weapons, and out without a trace.

Mikey was also going to pay for their dinner near the beginning of the story with cash he had pick pocketed from a Purple Dragon mid-fight. ;)

I'd rather Mikey be following in the best's style.

(And yes, Sam, I'm just joking with ya)

well i mean, not to get off topic but it makes sense that most of their stuff is "stolen" in the first few series,comic and movies, they have money but never say from where

it wasn't till 2007 film we saw they had jobs..so i would believe splinter, if he is a rat mutated Humanoid and not Yoshi, stole or had them "acquire" weapons as a first test

EDIT: i always question how no one in the city of New York questions random Power coming from the sewer

[chrisdude]

Chain length balances speed power and control, shorter chain greater speed, less power. longer chain less speed greater power, and somewhere in the middle for best control.What if he has two pair, and each is a different length? Maybe that's what we're seeing between these two images. Do people do that?

Nice...but they're still just really teasers more than anything. I find it funny that they didn't show the entire body of each turtle :lol: Like they were scared of showing people the designs...

Truth is he used many different styles Even shorter versions himself. but he really was incredible

...I know that they're teaser posters. I called them that myself. Twice.

The TMNT posters also qualify as teaser posters, though. Lots of initial teaser posters show a full- or partial-body shot of the main character, especially when the character is already well-known.

I'm not saying there's anything wrong with the new posters, just that I find them a little underwhelming considering the movie's out in four months and they've already revealed the character designs in the trailer. If anything, I'd expect something like this up to a year in advance as a very early teaser - something like this one (http://nerdapproved.com/movies/check-out-the-teaser-poster-for-captain-america-winter-soldier/). But hey, I gave up trying to figure out the marketing strategy here a while ago. :trazz:

exactly sam, no one is saying they are bad, but teaser posters should've been out last year in theaters..especially if all we get are the hands and weapons

you know BEFORE the trailer

Jesus christ not everyone has to share your f*cking opinion of "omg evryting is awsome!!1" on this movie.

He's "meh" on the posters, so the f*ck what.



Anyway, posters are cool pretty much.

Would be way, way better if I liked the designs of the Turtles or more than two or three things about this movie.

[graphic_content]

Does anybody know if the detail on Leo's 'guard' is an image or is that kanji? I've been staring at the high res image for a a few minutes, and can't quite decide if its hyper-stylized letters, or some malnutrition'ed dragon.

[The Boston Ninja Turtle]

i swear if we get some crap of their weapons being passed down from turtle alien generations i will quit this franchise

Hmmm. So, the posters decide to show parts of the Turtle's that are the least offensive. Go figure.

[discordiatookie]

Pretty decent posters, I like them. However, like others have said, I can't help but feel they should have been released months ago, before we seen the turtles in the trailer...

Still hate that 'Teenage Mutant' afterthought tacked on above 'Ninja Turtles' in the logo... I find it very jarring.

"Tsuba are usually finely decorated, and nowadays are collectors' items. Tsuba were made by whole dynasties of craftsmen whose only craft was making tsuba. They were usually lavishly decorated. In addition to being collectors items, they were often used as heirlooms, passed from one generation to the next. Japanese families with samurai roots sometimes have their family crest (mon) crafted onto a tsuba."

This is how I feel about Guardians of the Galaxy... and GOTG has more of a head start with promotion than TMNT. They really need to pick up the pace and start plugging this thing if they expect it to make any money.

[A_Little_Too_Raph.9859]

Did anyone put them in the order that they are shown in the cartoon opening??

Guardians of the Galaxy had a trailer, a character spot for each of the Guardians, and has TV spots now as well as being shown in every theater with Winter Soldier.

They're pretty well moving along on marketing.

This is for sure, but it worries me that none of the other Marvel films appear to be tying into it so directly that this movie can't be missed. I mean, I'll be there on opening night, but I'm not convinced just yet that the general audience feels the same way. It looks fantastic to me, but I've seen way too many films that look amazing have a weak box office performance. I want Marvel to plug GOTG so heavily that I'm absolutely sick of that talking raccoon by August.

I believe Thor 2 did. Remember those tornadoes that were in London, and were taking out the military aircraft, I believe one of those military aircraft will be Star Lord, and we also see Benecio Del Toro in Thor 2 at the end credits, and he's going to be in GOTG as well.

When July comes, expect the marketing campaign to hit full throttle. Because don't forget, this is Disney we are talking about.

not to get further off topic but i can see what you mean

the end scene in Thor 2 doesnt really explain much..so if the GA know nothing about GOTG as of right now it has no official connection to the MCU

i havent seen Cap 2 yet so i cant talk about that if they try to connect them

[MajorViolence]

I have. The tie-in scene builds up to Avengers 2, not GOTG. Considering how big a puzzle piece Cap2 is in the MCU, I think that was a bit of a wasted opportunity.

Still, it's been a persistent rumor that Thanos will appear in GOTG, and that could certainly be the push GOTG needs to motivate people to buy tickets.

[Warhorse]

I think I like Raph's the best. I can't help but be biased.

So, um, I think GOTG will probably have the biggest ties in the end, and that's whats going to get the people to go see it. It also has Bradley Cooper and Vin Diesel in it, and they tend to be actual stars that have some serious following. And Glenn Close will be in it too, somebody for the elderly crowd.

[MajorViolence]

I hope the film does well enough to justify the Rocket/Groot film Marvel seems to be considering. I would be so down for that.

[CowabungaMikey]

They look great.

[samxsteal]

They look great.

I honestly love the detail on all of them its great love the textures. Mikey's nunchaku are great the metal look worn, Leos sword looks awesome love his tsuba remind me on stuff from bugei (http://www.bugei.com/), Raph's sai look bad-ass the usually unrealistic sai but still cool and they're long which i like. Donnie's bow is a bow. But its the little detail in the wrapping and skin and all the awesome textures

are you saying star lord was in one of those jets because I think the official word is that he's been in space since the 80's.

[AceDuck]

The posters look great - especially Raph's. But, as pointed out, a little late. I'm hopeful this means they're having second thoughts about the design of the turtles...

[Powder]

There is literally nothing to imply that nor is there any chance it will happen.

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

I think those posters are pretty awesome.

[The Fifth Turtle]

I dig em. Is it safe to say that the date on the poster is the official release date? With all the re shoot talk ya never can tell with this movie.

[Zulithe]

On the surface it seems pretty cool, but honestly I wonder if they specifically planned these posters to not show their faces due to the reception they received or anticipated they would receive.

I'm not sure it's as closely tied in, but I'm sure it's still pretty tied in.

Thanos in behind the events of Guardians of the Galaxy, though not directly. I'm expecting another power stone (ahem...to become infinity gems) to be acquired by the Collector.

He obtained the Gem of Power in Thor 2. Gem of Mind is currently in Asgard. I expect another will be obtained in Guardians. I wouldn't be surprised if the Gem of Spirit is in Dr. Strange.

Everything is building towards the climax of Phase 3 being The Infinity Guantlet for Avengers 3.

[samxsteal]

I dig em. Is it safe to say that the date on the poster is the official release date? With all the re shoot talk ya never can tell with this movie.

GOTG is also doing reshoots so it really not a major thing. it just that that one site decided to post that rumor of a delay and people believed it. if that had not have happened it wouldn't be a question really reshoots happen all the time for movies

i agree they are pretty similar i think one major thing it the tone for everyone who still thinks it going to be a campy comedy mess, the tone shown so far is much darker then that with bits of comedy which tmnt has always had

[Kanon]

They are so cool! :D

I think they did a great job to make these posters because they create a dark
atmosphere with them. Maybe their goal was to differentiate from the kiddy Nick
toon and I really like it!

[JetsAndHeels]

These posters are great.

Having said that, if they had been released first..before the trailer/teaser...I think they could have generated more interest. Just my 2 cents..

It looks like a regular Ninja Turtle hand to me. Of course there's going to be an automatic Shrek similarity just because they're both green, but I don't see how everything about it looks wrong.

[JetsAndHeels]

im just happy we are seeing things at all.lol

I agree..they are way cool.

Also I love how you put all 4 of them together for your sig.

[Kanon]

It looks like a regular Ninja Turtle hand to me.

For me they look also alright,
But shreks hand is so big and if you imagine three instead of five fingers.....
Okay i may be spoiled by the movie thread (someone posted a picture of mikey as shrek)

[JetsAndHeels]

Kanon, just remind your friend that the TMNT pre-date Shrek. :)

[samxsteal]

A friend of mine just got a look at raphs new poster (not a tmnt fan)
and said everything about it looks wrong.
I asked why and she said, his hand reminds her of shrek. :ohwell:

I googled and found this

Lol she is kinda right....

Seriously this is what it upsetting me People make connection hell i could make crazy connection with a love franchise and use photos as references even if it was a loved franchise. The only reason she would make the assumption is because both are green and "fat fingered"
The textures don't look anything like Shrek the pigment is much darker and Shrek has five fingers raph has three. these comparisons to Shrek are ridiculous.

thanks...was trying to recreate that scene from the OP in the original cartoon, but im no animator, so I ended up with that.

[The Fifth Turtle]

GOTG is also doing reshoots so it really not a major thing. it just that that one site decided to post that rumor of a delay and people believed it. if that had not have happened it wouldn't be a question really reshoots happen all the time for movies

I really hope so. *crosses fingers for August release date*

[marcelangelo]

i was about to post that myself...are they stolen? splinter make them?

that would be terrible for leonardo.I am sure he is loking up to samurai.and in the samurai class the blades are the SOUL of the samurai.to steal from another would be unthinkable to do for an honorable warrior.

You are right.
I think the designs are totally different and like you said the only thing they have in common are green fingers, Nothing more.
I didn`t want to make a negative post about the posters,
it`s just funny that my friend said that and didn`t know about the stuff like the mikey/shrek picture at all.

[bridgegrn]

I actually do like the posters. It's a nice nod to the opening credits of the original cartoon and it's instantly recognizable without giving too much away. They should have released these months ago.

I do see the similarity of Shrek's face with Mikey's, but it does seem like the whole Shrek comparison is starting to become a bit of an annoying trend. I think once we see more of Mikey's face in the movie though and his different expressions he will look less and less like Shrek. If you look at that one leaked poster from awhile back that features all of the turtle's together, he doesn't look like Shrek to me at all.

On a side note, the actor for Michelangelo did such a perfect voice that it makes me forget all these Shrek comparisons whenever I see the trailer. And even though the design is a bit of a stretch from the original turtles, I still feel like I'm looking at Michelangelo thanks to the performance and the voice.

See i get that there a similarities but you can find similarities to two thing they are not even close to looking the same.

The only similarities are his lips and skin color, and that about it really. Some argue his nose but really mikey's nose in not that pronounced as everyone makes it out to be. Shrek head is much larger and not even close to being the same shape. his chin is much larger. I mean with extensive morphing and photo shopping yeah you could make comparison.

Its like when i was fallowing Halo 4 and every started saying the grunt look like Kuppas No no they don't. It like if photo shop a bandana on anything and it automatically looks like a ninja turtle, and thats not the case.

Nah dude its cool

its cool i mean yeah i can see the instant connections. and how people can "compare" the two. guess i just get a little upset seeing the comparison so much. its literally like the only problem most people get from the turtles is their "noses" and lips which to me was always something that made since to include. i get artistic style and not drawing out lips and just have them there like DBZ doesn't have visual lips but they have them in ordee to form word you need lips its that easy

It could also just be the angle/lighting in that scene. I would like to see a profile view for Mikey and the other turtles to see how far their nose actually sticks out. There is one good shot of Leo's profile in the trailer and I think it looks great.

Finally! Someone who understands!

These turtles look NOTHING like Shrek. Mikey IMO, looks just like a more humanoid version of what he has always looked like.

I agree I think most of it is people over exaggerating because they dislike something. I mean OOTS was torn apart till people starting playing it and enjoyed the art style some still dont like it but they dont feel the need to bash it as much as before it was released.

Terrible game had so much potential loved the art style though.

but i digress it would be cool to see and you kind of can looking at the Maquette and really the silhouette looks kind of like Mikey from the og movie. his head shape does to in ways.

The stuff about the turtles being caught and freed at the end of the film. That'd just suck in my opinion 8)

Where'd you see that?

[NinjaPug]

Where'd you see that?

I think he's talking about Andrew's April Fools post.

[Rooish]

Umm, don't we have photos of Leo, Don and Mikey in handcuffs?

Anyway. I love these posters. I agree they should have come out earlier, but what's the big importance of building up so much hype months ago? Everyone knows there is a Ninja Turtle movie coming out now. As long as there keep being trailers, won't that be fine?

I sort of see the Shrek-Mikey resemblance, only when Mikey's mask is off, but who the hell cares? Moving on okay? Mikey looks way less ugly. They all look awesome with their masks on. I don't mind the human features much, although it's weird that Don and Leo have more traditional snouts while Raph and Mike have noses.

[The Boston Ninja Turtle]

but what's the big importance of building up so much hype months ago?

Hype would have helped it in the long run and had theaters something to show off instead of word of mouth and behind the scenes mo cap photos

right now Turtles is Stuck between Guardians of the Galaxy and Expendables 3

2 movies that while not everyone of this board may want to see, the general public is excited for and could very much bury TMNT...you have the sequel to a popular action flick and the next instalment in the Marvel Cinematic universe

hype could have also affected release date, instead of being pushed it couldve stood its ground and had Transformers pushed another franchise that really needs no hype as it has 3 movies that preced it

[Evil_Ash]

By what logic do you show a teaser after you showed us what they look like? How about you show us the turtles? this is just a proof that they don't know what they are doing...

[Slap-Happy]

I like the posters. Don't really have a problem with the fact that we've already seen the turtles. They work fine on their own.

the brief glimpses we get of his bo in the trailer...im betting its some kind of retractable/extendable staff - much like an expandable police baton...but much longer.

hey are those Official movie posters and merchandise? Or did some person or company just make their own movie posters and sell it?

[Taichi]

Well, that's a good question. They were being offered by allposters and JC Penney... plus they do have the copyright and all the legal stuff on there. However they aren't in stores yet and they feel a tad thinner than normal posters. But the quality is fantastic... I don't see why they couldn't be authentic.

But all in all, I'm happy and they actually look really good in person.

Even for a not too impressed one like myself, I have to say the posters are at least a little more flattering than what I've seen in video. I swear those black and whites (that include Shredder) are a particular art style and so far since seeing a photo of those I can't frigging figure it out. >.<

Part of the Michelangelo in this movie will be played by post plastic surgery Mickey Rourke

[xChri5x]

Not a huge fan of the retail posters. My main problem is that Mikey looks terrible compared to the rest of them. Why is his face covered in black blotches. Even besides that it's just not the most aesthetically looking piece of promo material. They could have done better but come to think of it, most big movie franchises have cheaper looking retail posters for sale at big box stores etc... so I guess I shouldn't complain. Perfect for a kids room, I guess.

[Sumac]

And this isnt trolling?
No. It's my honest thoughts about quality of designs depicted on the poster and what exactly they are good for. Also, Mike's head looks very flattened compared to others.
