Victoria’s Secret...? Oh, of course she is, I mean it (sarcasm active!) all makes perfect sense now!

It's a set up so that Mikey can grill Vern about who the new "hot chick" is and be adamant that he's SO sure her boobs look familiar from somewhere... possibly from a billboard two years prior.


Or is she secretly replacing Megan Fox. I'm not sure how I'd know how to take that.

A major role? So much for people defending that LA based NBA scene as a small cameo.:roll:

Why does Vern need a love interest? Why does this movie need Vern?

They've learned nothing.

Kind of annoying that they'd add an extra unnecessary paycheck for a model who's a girlfriend for...Vern. Why not spend that cash on, I dunno, the Turtles?

Of course, knowing this bunch, hell... she could be Casey. :roll:

I just hope they don't mess up Casey Jones in this movie. He doesn't need a robot suit.

Including a scene of her in booty shorts, a midriff-exposing tank top and a flipped-up hockey mask , posing seductively with a hockey stick. Add a few more boner jokes for Mikey and call it a day.

Hey, we should be producers on this thing. :tlol:

Why do they cast models in movies anyway? How about, you know, actors?

Don't be silly... women capable of acting were forced to actually develop those skills because they lack the physical requirements for a Bay film, which isn't going to work. Homogeneous to having to develop a personality in order to make up for flaws.

:trazz: Sadly I could almost believe it.

I don't know how popular she is, I never heard of her since I heard this yesterday.

I reckon this will end up like Rita Ora when she got a part in 50 Shades, it got hyped up so much and in the end she was only in the movie for a minute.

I don't get the 'she will play herself and will Vern's love interest but he's the actor' It's just wierd, :ohwell:

It's not that weird.

Julia Roberts playing a woman named Tess who just happens to look like Tess Roberts in Ocean's 12... now THAT'S weird.

And honestly, I couldn't care less at the moment about a Victoria's Secret model ending up in TMNT 2. At the moment, I wish her well and hope she can actually get a decent first start in the acting industry from this... or that she can get a decent first start in the acting industry IN SPITE of this. :tlol:

Because the lack of T&A in Ninja Turtles was always holding the franchise back. Thank god Bay's here to set it all right. People don't want to go to a Ninja Turtles movie to see Ninja Turtles, after all - they want to see basketball games and supermodels and car chases!

You forgot the over exaggerated explosions. :P Bay has a thing for those.

After the way he was treated, do you blame him? The previous TMNT movie is everything wrong with todays movies. Taking a once popular entity, put some flash and bang and make a quick buck. Yeah, the movie may have made money, but the movie itself seriously lacks in integrity and quality. Says alot about todays society, the ones who would rather blow all their money on some fancy car to impress the girl next door instead of saving and buying the house to build a foundation. Bling over substance.

I remember reading something about that, They didn't use any of Danny Woodburn's motion capture data., But they did had someone doing the martial arts for Splinter.

Alessandra is actually one of my favorite Victoria's Secret models, but she has an extremely thick Brazilian accent and is really hard to understand. I can't imagine her having too many lines even if she can act. (She sure can strut!)

That being said, I don't think anyone has high hopes for this movie. Let's just get some actual nice fight scenes instead of blurry, cluster****ish crap that was in the first one. I'd rather it NOT fail, because even if I don't like them, they somehow make good money for TMNT and can fund all the other stuff I do like.

Maybe I would like these movies more if we actually got to see some boobs instead of 13 year-old jerkbait.

IndigoErth
03-28-2015, 03:02 PM
Good luck with that. Bay might otherwise be all for it, but he and his lot are still of the clueless mindset that TMNT is just "a kid's thing."
Although I'm not personally disappointed to be spared from that view... there's plenty of boobs out there in 2/3rds of everything else.
Alessandra is actually one of my favorite Victoria's Secret models, but she has an extremely thick Brazilian accent and is really hard to understand.
Maybe they'll just dub her over with a mismatched voice actor. Betty White might be a nice fit.

Oh no. This is flawless Bay logic right here. I can see Michael Bay thinking that this is a great idea and using it in the sequel.

God I hope you're wrong.

At this point, they've repeatedly said they're interested in having Casey Jones BUT they haven't confirmed it like they have Bebop & Rocksteady. Plus we can already see that Vern isn't going away and quite possibly has a more important role.

I'm gagging on bile as I type this, but Vern is probably gonna be Casey Jones. :trolleye:

Do we really need Casey for this film? My gut says if Casey shows up we will have a Sam/Mikayla 2.0 going on and we all know how much that can suck.
They could just save Casey for the 3rd film instead of shoehorning him into this one. I say leave Casey out as it will just take away more time with the Turtles.

From what we know so far the returning and new characters are..

Sachs
O'neill
Fenwick
The Model
Shredder
Bebop
Rocksteady
The 4 Turtles
Splinter

We might get Krang as well so adding Casey is a bit much at this point.

You might as well put the Turtles at the very bottom of the list. They'll get some shots every now and then, one big action piece with Bebop/Rocksteady, and that'll be it.

Splinter will be in it even less than he was last time. So take him out all together.

So April, Vern, Casey, Model, Sachs, Shredder, Bebop/Rocksteady...







And then all the way down here, Turtles.

Remember when the 1990 movie managed to have the Turtles and other human characters, without the Turtles getting sidelined in favor of the humans?

Good times.

Go back to suits, IMO - this CG thing just ain't working. It's clearly too expensive for them to do it on the scale that it needs to be done (ie, for the Turtles to not have to be sidelined to cut costs), and that's why we're ending up with all this extra ish.

I'm sorry, but nobody in the history of ever has been dying to see Vern get a girlfriend. Nobody cares that much about Vern, and he's not even like he is in the OT anyway. He's just some random dude that they've thrown in for comic relief and they've slapped the name Vern on him to make it fit with the title of the movie. It's a total waste of the budget even including this, and it's obvious they're just stuffing in padding in an attempt to disguise the fact that the vast majority of Turtle-time is going to be in action sequences.

models acting...musicians acting...athletes acting so on, and on...

...ill never understand why people feel that simply because they excel at their craft, or whatever, that means they should act. its rare, but not impossible, to find people who excel in multiple forms of entertainment, but I really think its bold (in the bad way) of a model, whose job is, lets be honest, to be seen and not heard, think he/she should make the jump.

actual actors should be pissed.

personally, I thought the Turtles themselves were well acted.

I could've done without Knoxville, and hope Ploszek is given a proper chance this time around. but that another thread entirely.
