no shredder??
 

I take it shredder doesnt even excist?

Uh, not anymore anyways. He's dead and his daughter/adopted daughter/student/associtate or what ever she is, Karai, is stepping in his shoes.

It's not that he doesn't exist....it's that they are keeping with the first movie's continuity that he was killed. (or that he was killed as super Shredder in the second movie) Anyway, he's dead.

I expect him to be in the movie in the form of flashbacks...but not as a major plot point

Shredder is dead, because we are sick to death of him over 20 years. His better half, Karai, is the villian now.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: he WILL be back for the second installment. How do I know? The makers have tried to "conceal" it enough but with this latest set visit, they openly claim (however subtle) that he'll be back in the sequel. Now we'll get to see Karai AND The Shredder, and possibly someone new. I don't what I'm more excited about: the film or it's possible sequel.

Heh, Shark, I'm glad someone else thinks that, too.

How do we even know Karai will survive by the end of this movie to make it to the sequel?

Thinks which? Karai better, or sick of Shredder?

i am not sick of shredder and it will be very odd to have a movie without him but i do like the fact they aren't 100% dependent on him as a villian. i hope they are able to explore a wide variety of villians and maybe shredder be the overseer of them all or something (similar to the kingpin)

Oh i thought this was a whole new movie, also cause its animated, i didnt know they follow the other movies,

It doesn't entirely. It will be an 'hommage', like Superman Returns was to the Chris Reeve films, but not exactly a sequel.

I think Shredder is a great villain dont get me wrong but I'm sick as hell of people reusing him over and over again. I'm really glad to see that there using some new people for this one because I've seen enough of shredder in the comics, cartoons and anything else.


I also heard that shredder will be returning in the sequel....cant this dude stay dead?

This is what I'm talking about. I agree with this guy completely.

If Magneto and Lex Luthor and everyone else ever learn the secret of staying dead, I'm sure they'll be more than happy to teach Shred-head. :P

what I am sick of is stupid ALIEN crap in TMNT cartoons or movies, Stick with villans and stuff on our own planet!!!!

Shredder might appear in the sequel. His death in the second TMNT flick was very lame and unconvincing.

Thats too dull and gets boring real fast. Bring on the fantasy! Thats what the TMNT is, 70% sci-fi and fantasy.

How about no?

Since when did we get aliens in the movies?

I think he's talking about the cartoons, etc.

but we do have mystical magical aztec generals and things :D
