What do you think the turtles will look like?

Chris5, I get where you are coming from, but I see it like this...We were trusted to up hold our word and one of us didn't. I can understand why Powder would be upset by that. He collectively trusted us to respect his wishes on the matter, all who received his art work agreed to this,and one of us leaked it out there anyway. That is a real world issue.

The designs themselves, maybe not so much. But the actions of the poster who leaked them against Powders wishes thus breaking the individuals word, is.

Just my opinion. Not trying to step on any ones toes.

true dat. dick move.

I already found the designs on a different website, but it was still an asshole move on whoever leaked it. Lesson learned I guess.

Well, whomever leaked it might end up hearing from Paramount's legal team..

AS for the disintegrator stuff, just let it go, everyone... damage was done, we're cleaning it up, people involved have been dealt with.

Already saw it on moviepilot.com. It even says it was 'posted on the technodrome forum and were immediately taken down.' The damage is done and there is no cleaning up at this point.

I agree it was a dick move and a severe breach of trust but on the upside it does make us seem like THE ONE TRUE source of the latest and newest tmnt related news before anyone else gets it.

EDIT: I retract my statement...I didn't read the caption regarding the images on movie pilot before I wrote what I said... my apologies.

[psychturtle]

It's about principles and keeping your word. So, I think the general reaction was understandable.

It's all in the disintegrator unit section. But, as Banshee says, we should move on.

[sgtfbomb]

Paramount is pretty hardcore about anything even remotely resembling "leaks." In 2007, they had a site called The Movie Blog temporarily taken down just for being one of many, many sites to post a spy photo (that originated from somewhere else) of Bumblebee for the first Transformers film.

And beyond that, just because something is a small deal to one person doesn't mean it's not a big deal to someone else. In this case, Powder trusted someone and they betrayed him. Concepts such as loyalty and respect frankly should be considered big deals.

what was leaked, real pictures?

Just a couple of drawings. Concept art. No biggie.
I think you guys overreact a lot here. These things happens for every major movie, and 99% don´t care. I understand the whole trust issue etc, but come on.. legal action from the studio to the poor guy who posted these drawings??? Yeah right.

Looks like it's even gone from there. The newest thing is from October. It's probably for the best. (However, going through that thread from October, there is definitely someone in there who I hope got the boot. Man, talk about some serious ignorance.)

[Coola Yagami]

Unless paramount closes this forum down over this I don't see why we should care any further. They must be THAT concerned that we'll see how bad it is ahead of time and spread the word causing it to bomb at the box office.

Considering the photo has already been taken down, they won't bring the wrath. In all likelihood, they would've "asked" for the photos to be taken down. Since they were "unofficial" renderings, nothing might've have come from it.

I think the controversy isn't over legality though. Apparently, a bunch of posts were removed, and if I had to guess, it's really about a personal matter that become public, an argument that resulted in some loser spreading Powder's drawings all over the place.

I wouldn't even consider it concept art. It was a members personal creation drawn from descriptions of characters from people who had seen character renders.

It's different for every studio. It's clear that Paramount are trying their hardest to keep everything under wraps. I personally had had a cease and desist letter from Paramount for an article I wrote on comicbookmovie.com containing set pics of The Shredder.

I just noticed that too. Yeah there were a couple of members that got very nasty towards the end. Oh well.

Or maybe they have a particular date or event that they want to do a big reveal?
