Kung Fu Panda

I have to ask. Is there any actual bad guy in this? The fighting seems to be all slapstick and just sparring against his buddies.

And to those who say this movie's sucess could help a TMNT sequel get off the ground: It won't help get us a good sequel, only Imagi's comedy crap.

(laughs at naivete that Imagi will still be in business for a sequel)

Apparently. buzz has it that the trailers and ads have exaggerated pieces of the film that aren't totally reflective of it. If I didn't wanna check out the Bleach film on Wednsday, I'd see it this weekend.

Whatever. You know that 4kids and Playmated don't want what TMNT should be, they want what ever is gonna sell their cartoon/toys. If this movie isn't remotely violent, and just a bunch of stupid phyiscal comedy, what do you think the next TMNT movie is gonna be if it's CGI?

That isn't the point I'm making, though. As I said multiple times, the current management shake ups at Imagi have put both Gatchman and Astroboy at risk for staying forever in developement limbo. If these 2 films don't get made, they're going to lose craploads of money, and I severely doubt they can take a huge hit like that and get TMNT 5 underway.

As for this having any impact on a TMNT sequel, it'll probably make a ripple that'll call for more movies regarding anthropomorphic martial artist animals. Mirage et al can pull a bait and switch after they catch the studios' attention.

Hey. We already have that Skunk Fu Cartoon.

I just came back from McDonalds and saw the new Movie toys. They look better than the 10 dollar Mattel toys.

I hope it doesn't influence the new sequel. Because then we are guaranteed to have some crap kid's TMNT movie.

I don't know... remember TMNT Comedy movie? Mirage blocked that idea. I think if they were going for something cartoonish like that, no doubt Mirage wouldn't be interrested.
