In fact I'm not sure I'd want one unless they did a Hulk/Incredible Hulk were it's visually and tonaly different and be a case that as "well it can be a taken as a sequel or it could be taken as a reboot, it's up to you". |

TMNT 1990 = 1 Hour 33 Minutes TMNT 2: The Secret of the Ooze = 1 Hour 28 Minutes TMNT 3: Turtles in Time = 1 Hour 36 Minutes TMNT 2007 = 1 Hour 27 Minutes TMNT 2014 = 1 Hour 41 Minutes The new film is practically the longest of all 5 films, Surpassing the running time of Turtles In Time. Given the stuff that ended up in the cutting room floor |

I've always wondered, does the run time include credits? I thought it did, which I would be there are way more credits on this one. Films these days seem to have much larger crews and CG heavy ones WAY more. Plus Liebesman said it's about 90 minutes, didn't he? Figure 90 minutes + 10 minutes credits would make sense. |

Seriously, did most people expect it to get good reviews?
I was cautiously optimistic at best. I have a feeling most critics were already prepared to hate this thing. But the legitimate sounding critiques about awkward editing does have me a bit worried. Nothing pulls you out of a story like bad editing... or perhaps editing that was designed to hide certain story details... |

Rottentomatoes is notoriously harsh with most movies. IMDB ratings have a fairer assessment. Even though TMNT has a rating right now, usually they are higher when a movie is just coming out. I think it will settle in the 6 range... maybe around 6.5 which on IMDB is considered a "good" movie.

The plants here will slowly and steadily whither and die over the next month, and I for one can hardly wait.
No amount of paid posters can hide the fact that this film is exactly what Eric Eisenberg stated it to be. He does indeed sound like a "fan" whose more than pissed that such an unholy piece of garbage was made from something he loved. Once the paychecks stop flowing, things will get back to normal around here. |

I'm from the future and I went back to the year 2010 to create this account to fight with bubble blowing babies about their hurt feelings about a movie about four giant mutant turtles. If this movie does well I hope you guys hide the razor blades. |

It's not a great movie, not by a long shot. That's a film I'd give a 7 out of 10. I wasn't dissapointed, per say, but it isn't really aimed at adults, so I might be outside the demo. This TMNT however, from all previews, looks to be impossibly bad. Forget the arguments over the design. The story sounds like absolute trash. |
Quote:
This is a movie made for idiots. Go be one of them. So, because you made the account in 2010, you're not a plant? When PD picked up the rights in 2009...how's that math working for you? |

The Turtles, I often wonder if it is the typical stereo types of each of the brothers, and nothing too complex about them that might be a turn off for critics. Or that they can't take things serious that also might be another thing critics frown upon. I also wonder if the franchise not having some sort of a critical darling name attached to it might also be a deterrent. Could the movies have been better received if Singer, Raimi, Spielberg or Vaughn was attached instead? |
Ah yes, all the "wait until it's out" and "don't judge it til you've seen it" comments for months and now that reviews from those who've seen it are negative, we'll hear about how they made up their mind beforehand or had a grudge against it or something. :roll:
Seriously, it's TMNT. It's never done tremendously well with critics and despite its worldwide popularity across different mediums, it's never been box office blockbuster gold. Kind of surprised the ravenous supporters (note: ravenous supporters, not *all* people who are excited for it, just some) would expect otherwise from the Rotten Tomatoes scores rolling in early. If it settles around 50%, it's the best rating a TMNT film has ever gotten. And it's not like Transformers or even *shudder* Resident Evil are strutting high praise on aggregate rating sites. It's probably a pretty straightforward brain dead popcorn flick without too much depth. At 90 minutes long, there's not a lot of time for depth. It's probably a string of action scenes and jokes. That's not necessarily a bad thing. It just doesn't make it critically praise-worthy. If it's fun and doesn't distort things too much (already got a glimpse of the new origin from an article....bleh), I'll still have fun watching it. |
