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.

A. Yeah I can see your point. Maybe there will be a nice balance in the final film that will be nice for people who like a little bit of the filtered look but not too obnoxious for people who don't.

B. Yeah. Not as much as some other forums I've been on (i.e. IMDB) But yeah I did see some of the "go kill yourself" posts on here when it was really heated.

C. Ha Ha. I think Shredder looks badass in the still images but yeah, how can someone really fight with all those blades on? Guess we'll find out when we see the movie.

lol I understand perfectly what you mean about that. I had forgotten about that part of the 80's cartoon.

That or it reminds me of the Unoffical Prequel to the new film

that was me, but it seriously is uncanny how similar


i think it was the last thing i posted before all the threads shut down...but honestly this is really all i see too with these designs

[D Piddy 1982]

One thing that surprised me (slightly) about this new incarnation of the Turtles is that they've gone (or appear to have gone) straight for Shredder as the main antagonist / bad guy.

In other superhero franchise reboots they generally seem to start the introductory film off with a lesser villain and introduce the main bad guys later on in the series (I'm really thinking about the new Spider-man - the lizard - and Batman - The Scarecrow - reboots).

So saying that I've always been surprised that a Baxter Stockman story line has never been thrown about as that has all the ingredients you would need - a connection between April, the Turtles and the "bad guy", Splinter involved with the mousers etc and you could link it to Shredder perhaps as funding Stockman or something.

I guess where this is heading is I'd love to see some live-action mousers on screen, I really think Baxter and his mousers could add a lot to a live action movie plot. If this movie is successful and they decide to make more then this is a viable option for a villain I'm sure!

well i mean the first TMNT movie did the same thing,


and Transformers had Megatron Killed off in the first movie..sure he came back but that was at a time of unknown sequels

batman and Spider i would say really dont have main villains..sure they have some they fight more than others but their roster is always pretty full with who they are battling and thus have a huge roster of bad guys to choose from that both GA and Fans enjoy

I definitely agree that we're long overdue a movie with Baxter as the villain, and I actually like the idea of starting with him (and introducing April like they did in the comics) before building to the Shredder in the sequel.

At the same time, though, the TMNT rogues' gallery isn't anywhere near as big and strong as Batman or Spider-Man's, so those franchises can get away with saving their biggest gun for the sequel a lot easier than a TMNT movie can. In this case it was probably smart to put their strongest foot forward in the first movie.

(Accidental pun! Oh no!)

[blindturtle02]

Yeah, I'd also love to see Baxter and the mousers on screen. That'd make for some interesting fight sceens. Well, if we do get sequels, I have a feeling Stockman and mousers will show up. Also hoping for Triceratons and some sort of Krang/utrom villain at some point.

Yeah, I'm guessing Shredder was used as the main villain to attract even more movie goers. We'll probably get quite a few great villains if this first film does well. Also hoping to see Rat King before these movies wrap up. He's always creeped me out, but I like that in a villain.

Yeah I know what you're saying, but I do think casual Batman/Spider-man 'fans' etc would view their main nemesis as The Joker and Green Goblin respectively.

I agree that the TMNT enemy roster isn't as large as other franchise's, but it is pretty much untouched when you look at the few films there has been. There's so much potential! As said above, you have the Rat King as well that could be a great story, Leatherhead, Triceratons, The Neutrinos.....even the Punk Frogs....mayyybe!

Either way I'm just glad to have a new live action TMNT...who knows hopefully there will be a few teasers in the film to leave us guessing for a sequel...

According to the info, The trailer is only 1 minute and 29 seconds, The teaser was 1 minute and 22. I hope this 2nd trailer is more story focused.

[Kanon]

I hope in this second trailer contains a clearer appereance of Raph and Don.
Want to see his Nerd-glasses face!

and Splinter and a Shredder for that matter.

[TigerClaw]

the 1st trailer came out around the week of the Winter Soldier, So I wouldn't be surprise if it debuts sometime during the release of The Amazing Spider-Man 2.
