anyone enjoy it more or less
since i saw it again i realize saks was a student of shredder, if so why didnt he do karate vs vern and april? instead of trying to shoot them like a fool
WHY ARE THEY BULLETPROOF! that kills the entire purpose of the foot as they cant even scratch the turtle
karai looks cute, but sucks she couldn't do anything at all
why does megan fox act like an idiot twice to whoopi goldberg. it was totally useless- you dont go to your boss saying put something on the air..
tmnt 2 april did it better w/ tgri.. "theres more going on than we know"
why does vern have a weird crush on april? why does raph call him a nerd when he totally wasnt the entire movie?? terrible dialogue
when mike says lets play buck buck... why the hell doesnt he get the last move? like when they were kids?? and also why does raph say LISTEN TO LEO when MIKEY made up the idea?
speaking of mike. why is he so dumbed down. he caves w/ pizza, loses the cable wire, sloppy ninja skills trying to sneak in.. i mean he was never an idiot in the other movies... not even close
leo as a leader seemed pretty damn weak...
donnie was probably the most enjoyable character of this movie for all the old tmnt fans he had his jokes. his brains.. solid skills
do turtles really fart???

Thursday premiere and then took the kids on Friday. Had to preview it first, because Transformers (with the violence and F-bomb) was a surprise with my kids in attendance.

Yes. I was walking out of the theater and noticed a little girl, had to be about 5, dressed in a tutu and hugging a Mikey doll, begging her mom that she wanted to see Mikey again, and the mom was like, yeah, ok, lets go get the tickets, gets some dinner and we'll go see it again tonight!" I thought it was nice of the mom, because we got out a little on the late side. Most parents would have been like, heck no, we'll go check it out next time, not back to back.

Three times. Tentative plans for a fourth. Which would tie my record for most viewings. (Spider-Man, 2002)

WHY ARE THEY BULLETPROOF! that kills the entire purpose of the foot as they cant even scratch the turtleThe Foot are always worthless. Equally worthless to these. It takes about 20 to take down a turtle. If anything, the tasers make these the fiercest Foot ever.

If they weren't bulletproof the movie would have been over in the first 10 minutes, all four turtles would have been executed via bullet to the head

I've seen it twice so far, but I have plans to see it for a third definitely, and possibly even a fourth time. I LOVED it the first time, and enjoyed it just as much the second time.. The only difference being that I noticed just how much was cut from the original film.

Twice. After my second viewing I formed my concrete stance on it you can read here: https://teschberger.wordpress.com/2014/08/11/teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles-2014/

also why does raph say LISTEN TO LEO when MIKEY made up the idea?
Because Leo liked the idea and said "let's do it". And Raph wanted to show that he accepting Leo as a leader.

You need to watch not only the movies, but also cartoons.
do turtles really fart??? why not? they are animals, not plants)

That was some great insight. Guess I have to take if as fact because of it.

Wasn't going to come back until all the negativity had calmed down and I had actually seen the movie, but the question about turtle farts made me laugh. So, being a stickler for details, I found this.

and, this;

Yes, turtles do fart, and their farts smell incredibly bad, as do the farts of snakes. In fact, it is my opinion, based on personal experience with reptiles and not on any formal research, that many reptiles use farts as a weapon.
Wow! I wonder if Mikey uses his impressive farting skills as a weapon in the movie? That would rock.
However, gonna have to wait two more months to find out ...

Something I'm curious about, Sacks called the mutagen the most valuable substance on earth, why didn't they bring Splinter to the lab to extract his blood as well, it seemed they were only interested in the turtles.
Finally saw Baxter on my second viewing, I enjoyed the movie even more the second time, picked up on some things I missed, would def see it again. I love 3D movies, but this one wasnt more enjoyable for myself in 3D. I'll stick to 2D if I go again.

I've only seen it twice so far, but I plan on at least going 3 more times. I saw Man of Steel 4 times, and that's my record for seeing one movie in the theaters.
Something I'm curious about, Sacks called the mutagen the most valuable substance on earth, why didn't they bring Splinter to the lab to extract his blood as well, it seemed they were only interested in the turtles.
Of course nobody knows the answer to this, so I'll offer a guess. He used Splinter to get the other 3 Turtles to surrender. Then he thought he killed him. I would assume he thought he was useless at that point.

You guys see movies a lot... The only times I've seen I movie more than once in theaters was Avengers (went twice on opening weekend) and The Lego Movie. I might see GOTG again. But this I'll skip on the repeat viewings. :P

I'm going to say it's because Shredder assumed he had killed Splinter (as he assumed Raph was dead as well). Red blood cells deteriorate quickly after death so maybe they realized the blood would be useless.

Yes, what he said. I should read posts more thoroughly before posting my totally original opinions :lol:

I only had to see it ounce to know what it was and the flaws or grievences I have against the movie. I agree with most of what you said.
TMNT being bullet proof makes the foot completely worth-less(more than usual)
Karia was also completely useless.
The pure size of the turtles make most of their villains irrelevant.
Seen it 6 times now. Twice in 3D.
I thought Pdizzy seeing it 4 times was bad!!!!! :o

I saw it today for a second time. I enjoyed it even more this time around. I appreciated the back-story of Splinter raising his "sons" and teaching them the art of ninjutsu more this time around. Megan Fox's performance was actually more believable this around as well and so was Arnett. The turtles were just as fun and likable as the last time I saw the movie. I also think that Eric Sacks and Shredder are still great villains.

Only seen it once, but I would like to see it again. However, I'm the type of guy that sees almost every movie out there. I see almost everything. I'm gonna busy with The Giver, which I still need to see, As Above, So Below, and possibly The November Man and Sin City: A Dame to Kill For (It looks good and I wanna see it but I haven't seen the first one sooooo) I would love to see it again in theaters at some point. However, I will get it on Blu-Ray for sure.

I haven't been on here for a while, so I'm surprised to see this threat. So is the consensus here that it's at least half-way decent?

Although a thread here polling people would tell you otherwise, based on comments I've seen in the past couple of weeks it seems to be more 50-60% here didn't like it.

Devil's Advocate POV: People in the "vocal minority" who didn't like it seem to have more reasons why they didn't, and can more easily extrapolate on those reasons, than most of the people who did like it.
Seems to rest mostly on how strongly a person thinks "Whattya expect? It's a movie!" is an encouraging statement, honestly.

Saw it three times in 3D, I'm seriously hoping I get to see it at least one more time before it's not in theatres anymore.
