I'm not even referring to the Red Sky seasons. I'm talking about the show in it's entirety.

When the turtles went to rescue Splinter from the Technodrome in the second episode they took it seriously. The final episode of that first season begins with turtles determined to take Shredder and even more determined to restore their master to normal. It was all light in tone but for a show of it's ilk it treated it seriously.

There's a certain charm to a lot of the humour of the Fred Wolf (and some of it's references are pretty clever) but was that it's selling point. Did kids tune in to watch them eat pizza and surf or was that a bonus to watching them battle bad guys.

Also didn't the DCAU guys lift the red sky look from TMNT? Dini was a fan of the show.

If the final product won me over I'd have no problem saying so. I just don't think it's likely seeing how little I've liked of what I've seen so far. I know some people have some kind of hipster cred thing going on but I don't even pretend to understand that. It's just a movie, I'm no richer or poorer for its quality, lack thereof, or my ability to fully "get" the humor or not. I also don't think people get bonus points for pretending to hate something they enjoyed, so I don't know why people do that either.

Or so she THINKS died in a fire but was actually turned into a giant rat???

[NinjaPug]

Hmmm....

Cut to the lair, where April meets Master Splinter -- however, once she steps forward to greet the ninja rat, Splinter tells April, "It's been a long time." (Dun dun dun!)

Well in the script Splinter is described as the lab rat from the opening.

It could easily be that Splinter remembers April's father or even April herself.

That might be plausible, He probably had some memory about her Father on what really happened that night. And then he tells her, Whose responsible for the Death of her Father.

Here is Collider's Recap of the TMNT Movie Panel
http://collider.com/teenage-mutant-n...n-panel-recap/

Footage

teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles-noel-fisherThe first footage we saw takes place ten minutes into the movie. April O’Neill knows there’s a vigilante group fighting against the Foot, and she’s hot on their trail, but she doesn’t know they’re turtles. When she sees a bunch of people fleeing the subway, she rushes in to see what’s causing the commotion. Once inside, the Foot Clan, who are taking hostages and setting explosives, immediately captures her. However, the Turtles are watching the surveillance footage on a panel of TV screens (although one TV has Keyboard Cat playing chopsticks with chopsticks), and decide to spring into action. The Turtles manage to rescue the hostages while staying incognito because the lights in the tunnel mostly go out except for an occasional flicker where we see the Turtles beating up the Foot Clan. Afterwards, they go to celebrate on top of a building, but April follows them, snaps a picture, and we get a whole thing where the Turtles try to figure out how to deal with her because they want to keep their identities a secret.

But mostly, this character scene is about quickly establishing their personalities: Leonardo is the stern leader, Raphael is the hothead (but not in a fun way; his fellow Turtles make fun of his “Batman voice”), Donatello is the brainy one, and Michelangelo is the goofball who also thinks April is hot. If there’s any humor that’s working, it’s in capturing the camaraderie between brothers who are constantly bickering and ragging on each other.

Near the end of the panel, we got another scene. This was a big set piece on a snow-covered mountainside where April, Vernon, and the Turtles are on the run from the Foot Clan, and I just couldn’t get into it. It never feels like the Turtles are really there. Perhaps in a finished film I’ll buy them as characters and forget they’re CGI, but in these brief scenes, I was always aware that they’re nothing but pixels. It’s made worse by action scenes where they don’t seem to have any weight. All of the Turtles look like bodybuilders, but they’re remarkably agile when the scene calls for it.

After the presentation, I wasn’t swayed about Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles one-way or the other. My biggest takeaway is that when the Turtles are charming (and they can be; I laughed at some of their lines), they have to do it against their grotesque appearance. It’s like someone decided to take each word as literally as possible when asked, “What would a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle look like in our world?” There might be a fun story in Liebesman’s film, and fans were jazzed when a sizzle reel showed Splinter fighting Shredder. I hope to share these fans’ joy when I see this movie because I still remember how much I liked the Turtles when I was a kid. But then when I see Raphael say “Cowabunga” in the grittiest voice possible, I can’t help but shake my head.

Oh, my...this review of the footage describes pretty much in precise detail why I didn't liked this project from the begining. I was afraid that since it was Bay's movie it will turn out like...this. And it had happened. Not much surprise here, but still it's kind of sad, that the biggest representation of the franchise in the modern pop-culture will will be presented in such basic, grotesque and, dare I say, deformed form.

Michael Bay version of the Turtles

Well, there goes your director's movie.

From off-screen we can hear Michelangelo: “She’s so hot! I can feel my shell tightening!”

My mind...

In fact, Raphael has figured out that he can hold the bullets in his chest and then, by flexing, fire them back out. “We’re bulletproof!”

**** this ****.

They’re being chased by Foot soldiers down the snowy mountain as Vern finally realizes that April wasn’t making all of this up. “I can’t believe you’re not crazy!” (He says this while ogling her ass as she hangs out a window.)

Yeah. Bay's movie...

Don’t go in to ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ and expect ‘Batman Begins.’ This really is a kids movie and, from what we were shown, it’s playing that up.

Nice.

And don't give me "Fred Wolf's cartoon was the same". No, it wasn't. It didn't had fart and dick jokes. It was comedy action, but it was lighthearted and genuinly funny.

All in all this project is exactly what I was afraid it would be.
