Do you like "TMNT: Out of the Shadows"?
 

C'mon. This one's not anonymous.

I am divided. It seems fun, but the damage it is doing to the franchise... unbearable.

I liked it...despite it's *MANY* flaws.

I feel honorbound not to vote until I've actually watched the film.

I hate everything about it, but not having actually experienced it... I plan to <harumph harumph> view the film through less than approved means this weekend to verify that, yes, it is indeed everything I hate about the franchise.

But until then, all I can do is echo the words of our great late President Richard Nixon:

"I AM NOT A PLANT."

yes.

the moments dealing specifically with the Turtles were a lot of fun to watch.

the others, not so much.

at least when I buy this on blu-ray to rewatch, I wont be skipping through the first 20 mins just to get to the Turtles. :lol:

I voted that I'm a plant...since these days I could actually be considered one.

Where's the "Ha, good one! I mean, there's no way I'm actually watching this" option? :tsad:

I don't see YOUR vote, Andrew.

...

Are YOU a plant? Hmm? Leafy tendrils unable to click that "no" button? :trazz:

You never really know, these days...

But a "No" from me would mean I've seen it. I've not. I'm just actively projecting bile onto it from the minimum safe distance, closely monitoring my giger counter to make sure I don't accidentally get too close.

this thread is pretty much like my 'Did you specifically like the movie' thread

:tlol: That's exactly what I was hoping for.

With the major difference of we can see (and judge) who voted what.

Yeah, it'll end well and civilly, I'm sure. :tlol:

Yeah this movie sucked really hard, imagine Transformers 2 with way more of Skids and Mudflap.

^^^^
This
Also, I haven't found that vodka yet.

I'd give it a 7/10 as an OT fan, a 6/10 if you're strictly speaking as a movie fan in general.

The movie had a simple plot, but the character interaction was pretty funny that it made up for it. The Turtles themselves are also vastly improved personality wise over the previous film.

Hated the handling of Casey, Shredder and to an extent, Baxter But especially Casey.. Amell was a terrible choice. Too many plot-holes regarding Krang and I didn't care for the Ultra-cartoony tone or/and physics either. 4/10. I liked the first one better.

I'm surprised. I didn't know you somewhat liked it.

It's like a giant green erection.

Yeah I liked it, would give it a 7.5/10

As I've said before, i'm the kind of guy who can enjoy We Wish You a Turtles Christmas on some kind of sick level, so, it doesn't take much for me to give it a pass. (The only TMNT thing I've watched and actively didn't like was the 2014 Turtles movie.)

Out of the Shadows at least had some nice, small character moments and felt like a Turtles movie the 8 year old version of myself would have loved to see. It's a big, stupid, fun family flick.

It's still not even close to how I'd approach making a Ninja Turtles movie, but, hey. I'll find enjoyment where I can get it instead of writing off the entire product as garbage.

Thank you Krutch! I felt the same way. Saw it twice. The first time was just to *enjoy* it. The second viewing was more critical and objective, and it held up better than the first did. Yes, I liked it. More so for the character treatment of Krang R&B and the turtles but I quite liked the way it felt more like TMNT. Well, FW TMNT anyway. Which is fine since it clearly took a lot of its cues from that version.

It was miles better than the first movie.

that poll and the other one speaks volume, people loved OOTS, he just can't bring himself to the realization, that TMNT today is more popular then it was before.

Then why is it making significantly less than the movie releases in 2014?

You really say a bunch of asinine things

Ignoring the fact you said some other frustratingly naive stuff, this is outright wrong in every conceivable way. Nothing can touch how huge it was during "Turtlemania".

I'd be far more interested to see the same poll done in six months or so. There was a lot of opinion turnaround on the last movie once the hype wore off.

Let's just be honest here: Nor will it ever ;)

I finished my coconut rum last night and will need to procure more (many bottles more) for my TMNT2 home viewing this weekend.

Nah don't worry Cy one bottle should be plenty. Might not even need the whole bottle this time.

Idk. I'll see it when I see it. Watching it mostly for bebop and Rocksteady. Actually surprised it's doing so badly considering those 2 are in it. Only Micheal Bay can take something that awesome and somehow **** it up.

Couldn't agree more. I was ~9 or 10 years old when the first movie came out, and it wasn't a huge deal. It was big, but not huge, to me, even at that age TMNT were an underground thing.

Then SotO came out. That was, what I think anyways, the start of "Turltemania". They were %^&$ing everywhere. Seriously, 5th grade school clothes shopping, I had everything TMNT socks, sweaters, everything. You couldn't go anywhere without seeing them. They were being sold in everystore, they were licensed to everything. TMNT at its peak now, is big for TMNT, probably the biggest its been since then. But it doesn't even come close to how big it was.

Anywhoooo. Didn't see the new movie, still voted, because I can't wait for a reboot. I really hope we get an actual Mirage comic trilogy. Would kill to see the Collected Hard Covers on the big screen. Bring on the Triceratons, and Zog. But yeah, movie looked like the same thing they did last time.

BTW, I was right. Every villian the turtles fight have to be enormous. The TMNT were designed so big that nothing normal human size is an opposition. Rocksteady and Bebop look the same size as the Turtles.

Yes, I liked it. It was a fun summer popcorn flick and I hoping to see it again on Friday.

It doesn't look very good to me but I haven't seen it so I won't vote. Waiting for the Rifftrax, probably.

He's prob just a plant from a rival company with another film out about now, perhaps X-Men: Apocalypse or Warcraft trying to weaken the numbers prior to its release. :P

( I wonder if that ever actually happens. o.O)

Agree. It's been interesting to see some of those who were massively hyped up defenders of it kind of cool off and become a bit more neutral.

Don't know if it will be quite as obvious of a shift with this one, since the vast majority at least acknowledge that at least some aspects were not great, but yeah.

Case in point, me. :p

Actually Andrew could be a plant from the next producers of the REAL TMNT movie which plan to wait until this mess dies down before they release it. Andrew is just silently biding his time...

Or maybe not-so-silently...

Well....I didn't hate it. It's flawed, but it had its moments. Krang was spot on save for his voice. Liked the Technodrome. Shredder, Karai, and even Baxter were underused...heck so was Krang to be honest. The team split was a bit contrived. The tracking with ooze was lame...why not stick to the burner phones? Bebop and Rocksteady were fairly on point...maybe a little too dumb. Also why send just them to Brazil? Casey was....not Casey. Sorry Steven, you failed this movie!

I think the degree of dumb for Bebop and Rocksteady was just different.

OT B&RS had a dumb child naiveté, PD B&RS had frathouse ****boy blockheadedness. Same floor of dumb, but in different rooms.
