Something like:
Federal Offensive Operations Team...

Oh it probably will be.

Boring and bland and meh. Such a bummer.

Just so Bay can shove his military fetish into the movie.

Like Tarantino and feet or Spielberg and bright spotlights. The difference between them being Tarantino and Spielberg are GREAT filmmakers and Bay is not.

Are you ******** me? Shredder is a JAPANESE man.

What in hell are you blathering about?

What does an Air-soft mask have to do with anything. Who know maybe the commissioned the company to make there mask they thought hey let sell them. Have you actually seen any really military wear mask even similar to that I haven't and i have many Military friends

It's fascinating to see an apologist jump through hoops to defend something like this. Like going to the circus.

And this:

Yeah no that doesn't happen. No where on that page does it say "FOOT NINJA MASKS FOR TMNT 2014"

If it was commissioned/licensed by the movie studio producers you'd see trademarks and copyrights all over the page.

Also:

Taiwanese soldiers.

I had i large Post written But a deleted it your not worth my time I just hope and feel your wrong and that's all I have to say Enjoy being so negative.

[Powder]

"You're" is the word you're looking for there, mate. & he's not being negative, rather he's realistic.

On another note, if the military foot of this flick looked more like those Taiwanese soldiers, I would be a lot less bothered by the concept. Those dudes looks awesome.

I feel its very negative when all he can do it literally make fun and belittle anything that part of the movie. i get not liking something i get that but wait for a gosh darn trailer to actually see if all the thing hes saying are true actually are.

CONTEXT i keep saying it an a crud loads of you keep ignoring this very simple concept. If I'm wrong then by all means come back and say anything you want. But do it when you have the Facts, not theories and conspiracies.

Yeah. Trailers are out of context too.

I'm forming an opinion of the things we've seen FROM THE THINGS WE'VE SEEN and only that.

I have not seen the movie. Can't say it sucks, can't say it's awesome.

95% of the things we've seen, so far, to me, suck.

Having your opinion is fine but to say.

"Shredder is a weaboo" and "the foot are only military white dudes"
And state these as fact whether our not that's what you believe is false, and you always do it in a way that's so condescending. As if any one who disagrees with you is an obvious idiot.

It's not just you it's a bunch of others too. Fan boards should be welcoming. We had a bunch of new users and you belittled them all and made most of them leave why. Because you hate this movie so bad any one who thinks other wise doesn't deserve to stay and post their opinions.

"Weeaboo is an English slang used to describe a person (typically of non-Asian descent) who prefers Japan and all things Japanese over one’s indigenous culture."

Bay/Liebesman Shredder is a weeaboo.

Sup you know for a FACT that he plays a person who is absolutely not Asian descendent? You know for a FACT he wasn't brought up in a home in Japan raise in their beliefs?

Wouldn't Eric have a Japanese surname instead?

The whole concept of a white Shredder is still a messed up move and another role that could have gone to someone else then a white male actor, but thanks to Hollywood, Oroku Saki is utterly whitewashed.

Racebending at its finest and most offensive.

[Candy Kappa]

An awesome plot twist would have been that Asian lady we saw in that one picture way back was Oroku Saki, since Saki is actually a girl's name. Hence why Shredder was renamed as Sawaki in the Japanese dub a proper boy's name.

No I just find it very wrong to call something that's opinion as fact. And you still haven't answered my question.

The whole idea is that Eric Saches is a play on or Americanizing the name Oroku saki, something some one might do for an alias in America if they were from Japan. Just like my name is Adam but in Japan it would be Adamu son. Simple concept many can't grasp

Yeah maybe Saches is actually wearing a mask hiding his fu manchu in order to trick the SIRRY AMEIRICAN PUBRIC.

You do realize that every time you don't post, the internet is better for it, right?

Seriously resorting to being condescending. Your a real stand up person.

Just because you think there will be no explanation behind Him being caucasian does mean that's how it willl be that's just an assumption on your part.

And seriously there is no reason for bring so rude.

I'm not saying what i said is fact I'm making an educated guess based on reality and frankly my theories are just as if not more plausible then your theories which are based on being overly bias against anything this movie mighty be regardless of what it might offer or could possibly be. Nick furry was commonly known by the general public as a white guy until Sam Jackson now he is commonly known as an African American. It shouldn't matter race if the actor can portray the character correctly. And William hasn't disproven himself as an actor thus could be the best version of shredder we have ever seen but i will judge whether or not this is true by seeing his performance not judging him based of his race regardless of what racer the character is normally depicted as.

It doesn't matter that Marvel is portraying Nick Fury as black because there's no shortage of white characters for white actors to play in big budget movies.

It DOES matter that a character that has been traditionally Japanese in nearly if not all media has now been racebent and is being played by a white guy.

It's whitewashing.
