But hey, if not being able to see that well during a battle/fight (and if you are training for years and years, you know that sooner or later you'll have to protect yourself let alone your family) because of your flimsy glasses that are just put together by tape isn't That important, then I guess I am just mistaken.

its not that its not important but if fixing it with tape does the job and can be done quickly then why waist time trying to build something else? yup cuz his glasses look oh so flimsy to me lol.


who knows maybe there is a scene where April gives him a custom pair at the end lol

You 'waste time' so that they don't break easily in the future, or so that the 'flimsy glasses' won't fly off or so that he doesn't pull a "Jinkies My Glasses" or whatever during an Important Moment (like a battle to protect himself/his family).

The same reason he 'wastes his time' building all of that stuff that's on his back, and in the lair, and so on.

maybe he had more then reinforced the bridge enough to be satisfactory. If you look closely if they are an average black framed glasses the bridge would need to be widened For his particular head shape. so He finds Glasses that help breaks the bridge melts plastics in-between to add more distance to fit his face, then reinforces it with thin metal strips, then for safe measure adds duct tape to secure everything in its place and add reinforcement

I get why you think its stupid it makes him look like a stereotypical nerd, but to say that he is so smart that he would never have taped glasses is ridiculous.

Lets face it, if he actually needed something he would make his own contact-like lenses because the glasses would probably fall off during fighting/training. But the real question is why are we worrying so much about it. It's not a biggie

Simple. I've already mentioned all the big stuff that bothers me about the new flick probably about 50 times (the designs, severe lack of any footage of any Martial Arts Fighting, seeming strange that if Raph is the Main Turtle that most think he will be...that he isn't the one being featured more in the trailers and such) so it's on to the nitpicking stuff.

Now now everyone we don't want a repeat of last times fiasco with this part of the site.

I've just decided a negative opinion isn't welcome here and figure I just shouldn't post my thoughts anymore. /shrug

I'd like to see Leo get the focus to start the trilogy, Raph in the film where Casey is introduced, but with a trilogy that leaves Mike or Don in a position of getting the shaft. If a Stockman/mouser focus with Don getting most screen time, that makes Mike comic relief through all three films.

I'd prefer an Avengers approach with a team movie where all of them get screen time. I thought Winter Soldier did a great job of, despite being a Captain America movie, giving good development time to Widow and Falcon and even a bit with Fury.

But Raphael is the "Wolverine" character type and the most anti-hero, so he'll be the primary focus of the films, I suspect. Hollywood loves the bad boy anti-hero and can't seem to think of any other character type being the lead.

I'm with you the two things I wanna see are of the turtles interacting with one another and seeing some actual martial arts fighting. We've only seen seconds of them fighting which is a real shame.

Personally I loved the new trailer. Every new little glimpse I get I become a little more pumped to see this movie. Despite all of the negative backlash on the movie I personally hope it does well and that it turns out to be a good flick.
