TMNT 17th Oct UK release date a smart move?

[Hannurdock]

I'm feeling down about it too. I wouldn't have the strength not to see it illegally if I had the opportunity. It just sucks that Paramount has gone down this route.

Can't keep away from spoilers either. Let's just face it, I'll probably be able to recite the movie word-for-word before I actually see it.

Do you think we might have an edited version for censorship?

I don't think we'll have to worry about the nunchuk thing anymore. That ban was lifted and nunchuks have been on screen ever since.

If they censor it to death they are gonna kill it before it even hits the screens.

I just get the feeling that we've been kinda cast out of the main event. All the excitement was for August and now we're waiting in a kind of no-man's land for our turn.

I was even seriously considering boycotting the film for a while as protest. Even though I know how much I will inevitably love it.

I'm kinda worried that by the time October 17th gets here that the hype will have died down.
Ive not seen any promotions or marketing in the UK for this film at all. I know they left it till the last minute for the US also, but still has me a bit down hearted...

I ended up downloading the movie yesterday because I couldn't wait until October.

You watched it yet? Whats the quality like?

[D Piddy 1982]

It's such a struggle to stay off this forum too, despite the fact that I know I will end up seeing spoilers etc.

Why are they doing this to us, why Lord!

I feel you guys. Hope the wait is worth it.

I actually reallly came close to watching a pirate version last night but then it says you need to register first to watch it and i'm like F**K that I aint getting hacked.

I just wish Nick would hurry up and announce the dates for last 4 episodes of the Nick show so it will take my mind off the the movie.

Use the blacklist function to censor out tags you don't wanna see. Pretty useful.

I watched it this morning. The picture quality is ok. At times the sound and picture are out of sync though but it's still watchable.

I watched it the other day, kinda glad it got pushed back to October here as it saved me the money paying to see it as I would have had it come out in August.

A bit of good news for us UK fans, there will be Special previews of TMNT at cinemas on October 11&12 before it comes out officially on October 17th.

Don't know if this will be every cinema though so best to check your local cinema nearer the time. Crossing my fingers they show TMNT in Luton or Milton Keynes.

That's great news. Really hope the preview comes somewhere local to Cambridge. Cambridge Cineworld had an advance screening of TMNT (2007) the week before its release so hopefully they'll keep up the tradition.

Still a month away.

Impatient.....

Considering internet piracy and that most studios consider it a victory if it takes more than 24 hours for a film to get online and how divisive this film proved even before it's release this was a totally stupid move by Paramount. They should have got it out here straight away before word of mouth showed just how bad it actually was.

I've seen it so I'm going to pay to see it, that's only right, but I've been telling all my friends not to bother because of how bad it is.

Yep, I said all of this at the time as well.

wait... you've seen it.... so you're going to pay to see it? So... you didn't pay for seeing it the first time?

Dammit, being a Northeren Irelander myself, that's really annoying that I can't go

I only found out about it by chance.
Will be worth the drive from Omagh!

Can't wait to see it, looking very much forward to it

Yeah, I broke and couldn't take the wait anymore (I was getting too tempted by spoilers). I'll see it at the cinema and more than likely get the blu-ray so they'll have their fair share of money from me.
