i don't care whose name is attached as long as they treat the property right. everyone has a general idea of what the turtles should look/act like. when something deviates from the norm so drastically it makes it hard to be excited.

Exactly, why try waaaaaay too hard to be different when you could please the fans with something they love.

4chan threads with the leaked poster are being deleted. wonder if we'll get any takedown notices on this board?

They don't look that bad, I don't love them but the criticism is going overboard the lips aren't as bad as we imagined.

@ snake and bmxbandit,

The clothes are not that big a deal. Realistically if the turtles existed they wouldn't be running around naked. Plus as others have pointed out some is probably battle gear.

As for the size we dont know how much bigger they are compared to humans. The original live action turtles were bigger than the humans and no one complained about that.

If you lose the shell, there isn't much reptile to them at all.
Definitely more Battle-toad than NT.

Have to agree with you there and the shells look like a backpack

This is how big Raph will be.



He couldn't even fit in a taxi.

[Commenter 42]

To be fair, Fox is 5'4 - maybe 5'6 in the boots...but still.

@ TrickOrTreater,

Well hes more bulky than the original live action turtles but looks like hes no taller than the on-set guys next to him.

They're mutants so I imagine they're bigger than humans.

Shhhhh! Quiet TrickOrTreater! Raph's in disguise, you're not supposed to see him in broad daylight in a busy NYC street!

So these are the new version of the Undercover Turtles?! I can see why Raph would want to use sunglasses. I mean glasses work for Clark Kent.

I guess so with the trenchcoat, scarf, fedora, and sunglasses... Wearing that "disguise" is going to attract attention for sure, seeing a huge, bulky, creepy concealed "man" just followin' April O' Neil.

Then again, who knows what context that picture is supposed to be taken as. ...If it was some brief humorous reference to the OT, first movie, or something else perhaps within the 2014 movie.

Well it seems to be it's gonna be hard for them to blend in very good when the pic of the new van I saw was not very conspicuous at all.

And Spielberg was the big decision maker on that front, since he referenced stuff like "E.T."

And he was just a 'producer'. And that's a problem a lot of people had with those movies.

Hell, read up on all the problems that director Tobe Hooper had with Poltergeist and Steven Spielberg's involvement and extreme influence in that production (who just 'produced' it.)

Or read up on the movie Dredd, which the producer took away from the director and recut the movie.

Am I 'educated enough' for ya?

If you don't think that a producer (who has a bigger name and a hell of a lot more power than Liebesman) can influence decisions in pre-production let alone a project itself, then you are only fooling yourself.

By your logic, you're saying that just because Bay is producer means he's the one responsible for everything, when there's a much larger chance that he hasn't done squat.

I wonder how Raph fits in a manhole??

anyway...I usually don't say this....but does anyone think there are too many threads talking about this movie?? I go to each one and it's all kinda the same subject......or has become the same subject.....

..no?....just me?

Because you're so intimidating and scary.

I'm sorry that you're not able to detect intentional hyperbole for the sake of getting a point across.
