Paramount Pictures @ Comic Con. 'TMNT' to be included?

After hearing that footage description, I think I'm definitely gonna take pass on seeing this in theaters. Maybe I'll watch it later if interest strikes me up or something.

Hey, it's another thread where people don't seem to have a good mental grasp on what the franchise is comprised of.

Come on man its only like ten bucks for a ticket. I don't see the hurt in checkin it out. At least to see if you like it

[Xiewin]

Okay maybe I overreacted, so I'm still seeing this in August.

AICN just posted their recap of the footage. A little more detailed than what I've read elsewhere...

I'm digging the sounds of this scene -

Spoiler:

They shoot some kind of electric line at him. It attaches and electrocutes Leo. Donatello and Raph see Leo's in trouble. Raph says his shell is cracked, but for Donatello to “Tape me up!” so he can go after Leo. “Let me be the badass for once,” says Don and with a nod from Raph he jumps out of the back of the truck into the snow and to Leo's aid.

Okay I admit, this was pretty funny.

They see the hostage situation and are debating about going up as the camera pans over the images on the monitors. When the camera gets to Mikey we see he's watching Keyboard Cat playing chopsticks with chopsticks and he can't believe what he's seeing. Another Turtle smacks him and changes the feed to the hostage crisis.

That's the kind of humour we've been seeing mostly and I hope would be prominent in the actual film!

I know we can overreact (to be fair the descriptions did sound terrible) but those people are trying to make the movie sound as bad as possible and those clips didn't help much.

I just don't see the point. So far nothing, other than the exception of a small things, has gotten me excited. And with everything we know so far, I realize now nothing has changed. This isn't the ideal Ninja Turtles film that I've been waiting 7 years for. What's the point in buying a ticket for a film in which I know I'm not going to enjoy based on the changes made? I feel the exact opposite with this movie than I did about the Nick show. Everything about this film just makes me cringe, honestly.

For the people who are excited, that's good for you. Means you get to enjoy a new take on the guys. But as for me, I'm tired of complaining and I'm just feeling done with the movie. For now, the only TMNT stuff I'm focusing on is the Nick cartoon, and as long as I have that and the past stuff, I'm perfectly content.

So enjoy the movie, guys. Hope it lives up your expectations.

Regardless if the film is aimed at Kids or not, It'll be a good movie for all to enjoy, the previous films were also kids movie too.

With any luck I'll have the panel video (minus the footage) online before I go to sleep. The video is in the process of uploading; it's just a matter of my computer cooperating until it's done. :p

I enjoyed seeing the footage, but I still feel overall "meh." I really hate to be hung up on the designs of the Turtles, but they just do not work for me. And I had thought Splinter looked OK in the clips we've seen in the trailers and commercials, but he just did not look right to me in what we saw. As in they ran out of CGI budget for him or something.

My general feeling is that this movie will be enjoyable enough for what it is while you watch it, but it really won't be something you'll be raving about after.

Dick jokes and general idiocy?
No...definitely no.

Was it the final renderings or it still looked undone?

Pretty sure everything we saw was final. But the bit with Splinter was rather brief. So it might actually be better than my quick impression.
