HOLY F*****G S**T!! If THAT was the martial arts fighting in TMNT 2014 I'd eat my Sideshow Zartan with Texas Pete's Hot Sauce!

That was magnificent! Not only mad skills, I could actually see the turtles' personalities during the fight. Brilliant!!

[electric_sheep]

That was crazy good, the sad thing is we won't get anything even close to this in the movie.
Though annoying music, overuse of slow-mo and mismatched soundefects kinda took me out...

[raphmike]

wow all of them doing well cool.

[Refractive Reflections]

What's funny is that in this era of YouTube, there is almost no excuse not being able to find talented individuals who can excel in martial arts as a TMNT film would demand, as this clip proves. AND who would gladly accept a fraction of the income most "big time" performance actors or Hollywood actors demand. But...

But as usual **sigh**, Bay and the staff believes that having 'roided big ol' Turtles (with Raph and Leo), superfluous "cool" apparel, and many, many explosions are all what the public wants.

Who knows, maybe the production staff did find a somewhat decent team of martial arts stunt actors, but it doesn't seem to be a big priority if these Turtles are going to be so huge and hulkish (as we fear). I mean, it almost makes learning martial arts obsolete in a way, if they are so big/strong that they can easily swat these Foot Soldiers like flies.

[turtlefanforever]

that was awesome

[Bry]

This is the BEST.

Seriously - imagine a TMNT movie teaser that was basically just this, but mo-capped? I would be in line right now.

[Puddinpop]

The video was Awesome and id love to see something like that in this TMNT film. Maybe we will : )

Hopefully it'll put your mind at ease, it certainly did for me:



...this is the BIG 3 - a nickname this trio has earned over the past several years for dominating the Martial Arts Tricking scene - TWO of them are listed as stunt doubles for the Turtles:

- Daniel Graham, and Jeremy Marinas

the great thing to me about the CGI Turles is that one can be used for the acting, emoting, voice...but a talented martial artist can be brought in for the movesets (acrobatics, hand to hand combat, weapon use, etc.)

I wasn't feeling it. Dude with the nunchucks swinging at whole lotta nothin'.

from what i have heard the fights wont be done by stunt men, they just thought the actors how to pose

i could only dream that the turtles would move like these 4 in some future form

[snake]

That was awesome. If only the new movie had turtles who fought like that..Or maybe it will, but I highly doubt it.

I was just going to post this! I love Rivens work, check out his naruto and street fighter videos as well!

Seriously Some one else gets it Ive posted on several occasions all of the great stunt men and women involved posting videos and stunt demos and they do pretty much the EXACT same style and form,

I thought it technique was quite good(im a "chucker") and very realistic in his application and use of his nunchaku

Were have you heard this SMH there is absolutely no evidence of this. what evidence to we have that each of the turtles Splinter Karai Shredder all have great stunt men and women

They have the stunt people who do just this kind of thing so chances are they will.

dont give up hope fellas - i know we havent seen THAT much yet, but check out the vid in my previous post - I can't imagine they would hire these caliber stuntmen to just stand around.

[SwiftNinjaFox]

Very nicely done. I'm seeing a few complaints on here, but c'mon, for a YouTube video? Pretty damn sweet.

As someone else noted, I liked that they put in a bit of their representative turtle's personality into it.

Sure, I'm not doubting that at all. It was just boring. Gotta have some flair and pizzazz to keep me interested.

[Allio]

The major thing is, would these guys be able to move in the turtles motion capture suits as they do here (going by what we see from the behind the scenes) no not really, has any of these guys done any suit acting at all

Sure, the video is great, but can they replicate that while wearing the turtle suits

and while I do love the fight scenes, I think the fight scene between Gokai Red and Gavan Bootleg from Gokaiger vs Gavan would work a bit better with the inclusion of the giant motion capture suits

The suits, absolutely no reason they couldn't with a Mo-Cap suit.

The SHELL, on the other hand.....
