I come back and all the interesting people are banned, atleast i take sollace that someone finaly put FellowChucker down, i hate that guy with a passion.
Well if his loincloth can defy gravity, why can't his shades?

It's a shame so many people had to get banned, but I was personally tired of being called stupid or seeing people told to "go kill themselves" just because we are looking forward to a movie. Differences of opinion and debates are one thing but some people just take it too far.

It sure isn't annoying how the mass bannings and peoples' personal grudges are being brought up everywhere. I wish I could read more.

Question

Wouldn't it be funny if the movie pulled a "Batman Returns" and was so dark, demented, and violent that no fast food joints would sell toys for it?

I would Agree but in 2012 half of nickelodeon started going to Mc Donald's like SpongeBob he went to mc Donald's in 2012 and not BK and now with TMNT having two kids meals from mc Donald's I think it would be weird if they changed to BK but I could be wrong they could go to BK then again BK stopped making Movie Happy meals it only happens once in a blue moon now sense they got BK crown now

One thing I don't like about Shredder so far is that he looks more like a Samurai fighter then a stealthy ninja. Even just looking at the lower half of his body in the TV spot, it looks a bit too much. I'm also not buying Sach's is Shredder just yet.

Otherwise, yeah the turtles look a little weird and it's Megan Fox, but I'll still go check it out with an open mind. It seems like they are hiding something with the story line and like Fichtner said, they changed some of the script mid-shooting. Maybe they took heed to the backlash of "white Shredder". Who knows? Maybe that's just wishful thinking.

I agree with the notion that I don't want them to try and recreate the first film because a new outlook isn't necessarily a bad idea. I just don't want them to completely rape one of my favorite franchises for a quick buck.

I'm glad the threads are gradualy starting to open up again. I hope it stays clean and we can keep it civil, it wasn't very nice seeing all the arguements.

But anyway, i'm still excited to see this movie, I enjoyed watching the trailer and the tv spot. I wonder when we get the 2nd official trailer, i'm guessing maybe late May/early June.

There is absolutely something else going on with Shredder that we don't know about. There's no way a 60 year old man can battle THESE turtles without some sort of help. They are hiding something from us. Watch Fichtner turn out to NOT be Shredder or there's some sort of supernatural, extraterrestrial, or superhuman quality to that suit we don't know about yet.

Could be as simple as the Shredder suit is just a exoskeleton, it looks so from the leaked pictures of shredder as the armor arms are just attached over Sachs own arms without any protection or even gloves.

I really hope they don't turn Shredder into Iron Man with some sort of mechanical suit. I just don't see how Sach's puts on some armor and goes toe-to-toe with 8ft turtles who can smash Hummer's and throw people thirty feet in the air. The supernatural strength of the turtles in this will have to be matched by Shredder. I'm thinking Sach's "creates the hero's" and then tries to create Shredder to take them out.

I am liking what I see so far now, even to the looks of the Turtles. However, I am not thrilled at the idea of a white Shredder. Hopefully this 'Sachs' is just a proxy and we eventually get to see the real Shredder show up.

I forget who made the comparison before, but I can't not see this every time I look at those designs:

It really is a good looking movie visually. I think that after sitting through the movie for a bit, the turtle designs won't stand out as much.
Here's a good example of different tastes in action, because I have the exact opposite response. I think the colouring/design of what we've seen so far is pretty unappealing, honestly - everything's overly filtered and contrasted for the sake of "style", but it just looks overblown and kind of obnoxious to me.

To each their own, of course! I know a lot of people are into that look, and that's totally fine. But I think a little goes a long way, and the footage I saw looks way overdone to me.

Whoa, did that last one actually happen? I never saw anything approaching death threats.

Again - just praying for a scene where a strong wind blows his blade-cape right into his bare hands. If that happens, then I will pay for a ticket.

Yeah I agree looks almost samurai like, 4kids was able to pull it off, but I always prefer the Ninja look.

And I think thats what everyone fears, but I am confident Nick will do their best. If platinum dunes can't get it done, I guarantee they will find someone who will. This is Nick's action franchise, they will do what they have to to keep the franchise popular in the mainstream.
