Why wasnt Krang in the Movie?
IF THE MOVIE WAS based somewhat on the cartoon, I mean it was and it wasnt but the pizza...april being a reporter.. why couldnt they go the cartoon route with krang and the technodrome? when i was little someone (friend in school) saw it and told me krang was in it.. they lied and i was so upset lol.. i think that would have been much much cooler

They were going to make Prof. Perry and the other TGRI folks turn out to be Utroms in the sequal, just like Mr. Mortu and the TCRI folks are Utroms in the current series. The only thing is, I don't think the director much cared for that idea.

dude, if they had turned out to be Utroms they could've made a really awesome next movie isntead of 3 as it was... (not that it was horrible XD I still have it memorized! But could've been better).

WEll in the first movie they made the series closer to the comics. I heard that jordan perry in the 2nd movie was going to open his stomach and reveal to be a utrom, but it was cut. The utrom would not have been krang.

I could imagine, that, besides it was more likely to see Utroms, Krang would have been very difficult to make. I mean, if you imagine Krang in real life you'd certainly wouldn't imagine a compact pink ball with eyes...

the cartoon was more popular than the comics back then. kids would be wondering what the hell Krang was doing in some geeky guy's stomach and why wasn't he working for shredder.

That would've been neat, and yes, Krang would have looked awesome! I mean, they had the Jim Henson Creature Shop working on the first two movies, they can do anything

I agree, I wanted Krang to be in the first movie too and was very disappointed it wasn't more true to the Old Toon.
A Jim Henson Krang would rawk.

wasn't shredder the one that carried out EVERY single stupid plan of Krang? Plus: In the german version Shredder refers to Krang as "sie" which is a polite form to refer to somebody.

Krang wasn't in the movie because the animatronics for the turtles were trying enough. It was a revolutionary movie effect at the time and to add a talking brain to four humanoid turtles and a rat would over-balance the movie budget. New Line most likely didn't want to take any chances.

Plus, the first movie is based more on the original comics which did not have Krang.

As far as you mentioning, krang not being in the comics. The utroms in the new cartoon, based from the comics, did not have names except mortu and one utrom was named krang, but that was probably not in the comics. They should have named the utrom in the 2nd movie, if they had shown it, Krang because the cartoon was airing at the time. |
