The NEW Official Trailer Discussion

He also has big dark lips in this version too. The foot are cool but they are even further away from " ninja" then what Liebesman is doing. At least in the new film they look like " foot soldiers" ya know? I mean they're wearing gas masks. Idk to each their own.. When they kick the door in I noticed that she had like 6 dead bolts and they just kick right threw ? lol.. My favorite part was the shot at the end with the sunshine music. That was epic. But for a major motion picture I don't think this would fly imo. I would love to see a full length version myself but I guess they could get the funding and support which is a shame : /.

I see what you're saying. If anything, the guys with the gassmasks should be purple dragons. I don't know how they thought the title fit for the film. Raph's plastron was bizarre and I personally don't like it when they try to make it look like muscles. The face I thought was better but yeah, I did notice the darker lips. At least he didn't look like Shrek or had an ape nose... well, none that was visible.

Same and maybe more lair time or down time.


Also has anyone thought about that the new trailer might be released during the 30th anniversary which is may 5th i believe, might be a good time to release some stuff

I thought that about 3 weeks ago.. I posted it a few times in one of these threads that I thought it would be a good idea if they released the next trailer around the 30th anniversary and I think some people misread it as the 30th of April, but hey lol they might be right also. Im really hoping for tomorrow. A friend of mine that played a foot soldier in the film has been 2/0 when it comes to these little predictions and he seems to think it will be either tomorrow or Wed. Thursday the latest. Im hoping this is true.

Yea lol.. If they changed the title to " Fight the dragons " or something it would have made sense lol. I do like the face too. I love the bandana how it goes over his nose. I think the new film tries to really hone in on the " freaky mutant/humanoid" aspect of it. That's why that joke at the end worked so well. I just hope its not the only good joke in the film. I understand the shrek comparison lol. I also like how the new bandanas actually look like pieces of a ripped up banner or clothe or something that they found in the sewer. If you look at the bandages on mikey's hands at the end they are filthy lol. Idk.. I cant blame anyone for hating how they look its a preference thing I understand that. Im not crazy about Mikey's nose either but I get why they did it. Did you see the Casey Jones short??

and I think your Avatar is awesome!

When this first came out i was totally excited about it, but looking back the fighting is kind of lame lighting kind of off, it all just seem to low budget.

And i mean that with all do respect, And i know it really was a low budget short film. And i think they did great for what they were doing but for full movie its just not on par.


Notice no one complained April wasn't a red head, and such lol kind of funny

i wanna see more "ninja" but if not wont be surprised, Would like to see the turtle van, but something i kind of really wane see is some of the "down time" like them chilling and living in the lair. more of the turtles would be great but i really do believe that they're not finished with all the CGI so im not "expecting" much

I agree with that also. I think its the reason we haven't gotten a 2 1/2 minute trailer yet. I think we will get some fight shots. Id like to see the Van zoomin around also lol. The turtles eating pizza in the Lair would be a treat but SPLINTER VS SHREDDER in action? O hell yea lol

I don't doubt this movie will be fun and something with more of an epic scale but they could still have all that but with a more traditional look. I do agree the cg looks pretty nice and detailed but if they just fixed the noses, I could tolerate it more.

I have seen the Casey Jones fan film and despite some of the cheesy acting and questionable special effects and costumes, it's an enjoyable film.

Thanks. The avatar comes from some art I have on my deviant site. There is a story behind it but you'll have to read it there to find out.

I thought the lighting seemed pretty tight but the guy's southern accent threw it off and of course having nothing to do with the Foot. The Plastron was also questionable but I did like the body shape and the fact that he wasn't a giant.

I assumed that was April but it could've easily been some other reporter that she works with. Who knows? One other thing I didn't like was the way she reacted to Raph. She wasn't freaked out enough.

Soooooo, are we really getting a new trailer tomorrow? Because you guys really got my hopes up.

i think that once your sitting and watching the movie their new look wont be as distracting as people are making it out to be.

Ive seen some of the casey jones film it was also one i enjoyed.

I like the lighting at the end but other then that it seemed way to dark and Mono toned, your right about the Accent when i first watched it i was like wha wha wha lol. As for size i would argue that the new turtle are only slightly taller i did the math on there size height wise leo and raph are just 6' which is the size of their actors, they are larger muscular wise but really when compared to things like the 2k3 and even the wolf series they were very muscular and often did crazy strong stuff in both series. but i digress sorry. I to like the shell design and the skin application was nice it look pretty good and they got a physically fit person to play the roll.

i dont think she would have tried to stab him i honestly like the fainting better IMO lol. I think its happened in almost every version of the turtles

I've been checking every outlet I could think of:

Facebook-TMNT
Twitter-TMNT
Youtube-TMNTMOVIE
Youtube-Paramount (both local and international)

...and unfortunately, nothing yet. Can anyone suggest other sources they check for breaking movie news?

Yea lol I think that's what made that short enjoyable. Its one of those things that is good bc its bad, if that makes any sense lol. I really did enjoy it, I still watch it once and awhile. The music is cool and sounds like its from the first predator film and Mikey is voiced by Robby Rist.. I think that's his name. He voiced mikey in the first film if im not mistaking. Im kind of on edge a little bc I have a feeling we could get the new trailer any minute now. If we don't then ill be a little bummed

What's funny is that some of the test footage they released, showed some really nice (albeit brief) hand to hand combat.

sadly we never see any of this in the actual short - if it was there then the cinematographer did a poor job of capturing it and showcasing it properly.

thing is...when they released the first trailer...there was big hoopla surrounding it...Will Arnett went on the Today Show, where they broadcast a modified version of the trailer shortly before it exploded online. and the trailers themselves were already loaded into Youtube playlists, but just listed as 'private videos', inaccessible to the general public.

so there was lead up to its released for those of us that were looking for the signs. I wish there something like this for the second trailer, because im dying to see this, and each that passes feels like forever, lol.

Well, that was for the first trailer so it was kind of a bigger deal, I guess. But yea, the silence doesn't make me confident that we are going to see something. I don't think they built up the second teaser too much though. It was just kind of dropped on us.
