Will Leonardo stab somebody? Will Raph?
 
We've all seen how it goes in past iterations - Leo has swords, and Raph, sais, but neither of them were ever given any clearance to use them (in the cartoons), cause lets face it, that would end pretty violently. (unless they are robots, and nobody really cares if a robot gets cut in half - a human moreso)

Given the tone of the new film (the little we have seen), do you guys think that they'll finally put their weaponry to use? Do you even want to see that?

I for one, love the whole thing Raph does in the new Nick show, where he uses the prongs of the sai to trap an opponents arm and ultimately flip them, and considering his brawler nature in this film, seems like something that would be in line with his character.

As for Leo, while I don't really want him making a bloody mess of people, not my thing; but I would love to see some slo-mo shots of him precision cutting past and through the foot's armor to expose weak points that he eventually kicks in. precision cutting to me shows more skill than brawn.

I can see it happening but extremely fast during a fight scene.

Stabbing isn't exactly the right way to use a Sai, but I wouldn't hold it against the scrip writer to not know that since most incarnations handles the Sai as a stiletto rather then an actual Sai, and Hulkael certainly looks strong enough to pierce skin, tissue, muscle and bone with just a Sai prong...

I'm sure we'll see Leo's sword get contact with the Foot, but not showing any visible cuts and they fall in such a manner the wounds won't show up directly on the screen. Similar to recent Marvel movies. There is wounds and lethal contact, but the camera don't dwell in the sight too much.

I don't know about stabbing anyone I just hope he uses them period.

I expect if they do injure/kill any of the foot military it be on the scale like for example when Wolverine killing enemys in X-Men films and the 2 Wolverine films. Also I expect it be very quick or off screen.

Isn't there a rumor that one of the Foot has to commit seppukku in front of Shredder?

Yeah, but apparently the da guy who leaks it also said his scene was cut from the movie. So who knows.

Yes, but it wasn't confirmed. If it does happen, it'll probably be off-screen.

MastahShredder 03-31-2014 04:13 PM

If Shredder is making him do it, he must be taking it out on a failure like Tatsu did in the original.

Maybe he throws a sword in front of the kneeling soldier and it's just implied that he does it.

Yeah, that's probably how it'll be done. (if it's done)

Sighphi 03-31-2014 04:19 PM

It's more likely that some one is going to explode.

shuriken 03-31-2014 04:21 PM

He commits sepuku with a grenade

chrisdude 03-31-2014 04:29 PM

I'd much rather see Mikey chuck a fool in the jaw, but that's even less likely...

Andrew NDB 03-31-2014 05:56 PM

There's a little bit of cutting and Foot guys who "probably" die.

turtlefanforever 03-31-2014 05:58 PM

Considering how hard they are marketing it on Nick
 
I doubt it gets too violent.

Really.

I knew it.

Candy Kappa 03-31-2014 06:09 PM

Honestly, I don't think a Seppuku scene would have been appropriate in this movie. Maybe if the movie was a smarter movie, maybe they would have handled a Seppuku scene properly.

There's no way they'd have a ritualistic suicide moment in a movie with Nickelodeon plastered all over the beginning of the teaser and probably future trailers.

Off screen OR on.

From this movie, I'd expect a Seppukui ritual with guns and shredder clawing the solider.
