References?
 
Have you guys ever stopped and thought that the reason the Casey vs Rocksteady part at the end of the movie was similar to the Avengers is because it was a reference? TMNT is known to make a lot of references and to mock pop culture and such. Could be the same with the 1st movie. It appears that whenever PDMT makes any sort of reference everyone calls them out for completely copying whatever it refers to. Just think about it.
And for once guys, try not to go insane cause I'm standing up for the PD Movies.

Also it appears that in the 1st movie Bay had the same role, in the 2nd one Bay still had the same role. The 1st one wasn't well received and everyone blamed Bay, the 2nd one was and everyone forgot about Bay. He's the producer not the director. Apparently people just want to blame Bay cause he's in on the project barely doing anything.

Rip-offs, not references.

& stop drudging up the Bay argument. This section is awful enough with all the spam, but at least that's not people from opposing sides spewing vitriol.

It's amazing how, since the spam threads started, it's the longest this section has gone without a big long argument.

Did... we get tired of not arguing?


References should be vague, enjoyable, and be easter eggs people like... not look like lazy copycat writing.

Except for the Ferris Bueller riff at the end of Deadpool.
That was freakin' genius.

So now getting a 38% rating is being "well received"?
