Well, they succeeded at being scary. If I opened the door to a bunch of kids wearing those masks I'd empty my chocolate cupboard and wish them goodnight.

They're so scary - and/or I'm feeling twisted enough at the moment - I took that as alternately meaning to crap one's pants... cuz I think I might in that case.

I'll.. I'll just go now... *sneaks away*

It's not subjective to say that the children's halloween masks and the high-tech motion capture Turtles look the same. Maybe that's why!
Read carefully:
I have never said, that they look the same. I said that masks managed to capture spirit of those CGI monstrocities in all their ugliness.
"Capturing spirit" and "looking the same" are not one and the same thing.

Sumac's lesson in reading comprehension is over.
Cheers.

So capturing ugliness is different from looking ugly? I'm not sure I followed your lesson.

I dunno, to me, after the amount of additional clips we've seen all of a sudden, I'd have to say the spirit of the in-movie characters seems pretty good.

The only thing those masks captured was an advanced level of holy mother of what the f---. And while I may always wish the film folks made some different choices for the models, their (the character's) skills in wtf is rather subpar compared to the wtf mastery of those masks. lol

I don't know what in god's name happened to Donnie's mask on the costume one (not the head shot). He's had an awful nose job, and the botox in the lips is borderline Donatella Versace... hey... wait a minute...

Yes. They have their own brand of ugliness, one quite similar to the Hulktles.

I'm lost, you might have to explain this joke to me Sumac.

Ugly is ugly, no matter how you dress it up.

If that kid came to my door, I'd scream and then compliment him on his legit scary costume.
