Can't wait!

Loved the first one, hoping for more Turtles in the sequel cause they were perfect.

maybe if they debut Krang, he won't be an alien too... OH WAIT

Does that mean TMNT II is already your new favorite Turtles movie?

If they focus on the Turtles more then it probably would be.

GotG's worldwide opening weekend was $161.7m, for some comparison.

An earlier summer date might help TMNT2's box office, but the competition will also be more fierce.

Okay firstly, this sequel will likely be postponed in development like the first one was. Second, I don't really know how dates are chosen for film releases, but why don't they just see what else is coming out, gauge the competition, and adjust accordingly?

Also, maybe the people who hated this film can just give it a rest now. There is obviously nothing to hope for in a sequel or you, so just go back to your Nick forums or Comic forums or whatever.

There's still telling what the movie makes its second weekend with Expendables III coming out (Those movies didn't bring big money in US per say, but all raked big worldwide), and the fact that the fandom of the franchise was to say the least...divided.

I guess they picked the date just incase someone else picks it for there movie. Looking at movies in June 2016 there are no big movies like from DC or Marvel but X-Men Apocalypse is out on May 27th.

It could be postponed but I find that when they make sequels they seem to run more smoothly due to they now know what the CGI and designs are going to be like but they probably have some minor changes.

I am happy this is happening but at the same time I don't understand as this movie has not made a profit and wont do so until its made more then $250 Million at the box office. I thought movies only got sequels if they make they make the studios enough profit?.

Does anyone know why a movie needs to make twice its budget to break even? In the rest of the world to break even you only need to earn back the money you spent, not twice the amount you spent. It does not make logical sense anyone care to explain?

Keep in mind, along with Cap 3, the Batman vs. Superman movie is going to fall in a spot somewhere in Summer 2016. Yet another bullet to dodge.

I think it's scheduled for March right now, but if there are any delays, I think June 10th is prime real estate. Release dates get adjusted fairly regularly, so it;s way too early to assume how it'll shake out.

i had no doubt they wanted to make a sequel, just depended on how much money this one made. (the mutagen on shredders finger, stockman for 2 seconds, the turtlevan just being made at the end)

while i personally enjoyed this movie, i see where others are coming from. however, i honestly believe the second one will be better:

this movie obviously had multiple changes due to fan reactions, the second one i think will know what we want and has already established they arent aliens, shredder isnt white etc.

weve got their basic introductions and backstory. while the second one can dive deeper into them, we wont have to deal with first meetings and can get right to the turtles, leaving more time for the plot

really high hopes for the second one. i can definitely see casey being addedd, easily, making his backstory come from the events of the first movie. however i dont really see bebop and rocksteady, as the cannister of mutagen that fell with shredder was supposedly the only one. but i could see them going with a villain like bishop, which would be incredible to see in a movie, and have him and the government start hunting the turtles
