You know how sometimes you laugh until you start crying? This is like that, but in reverse.

Eh, if Allura took her t**s out I'd probably find a way to cope.

For a movie which has a deadline they need multiple great writers to finish it quickly and to properly edit it on time.

The writers for TMNT are great. The main problem was the director and producers which are known to impede writers from doing their job correctly.

Andre Nemec and Josh Appelbaum have a good track record. Most of their movies got above 50% and their work on TV shows averaged to about 7/10. It seems like the writers were conflicted with Jonathan Liebesman. A movie does poorly if the writer and director can't communicate and work together properly.

hmm..Now that I think about it, the turtles were written pretty well and I did laugh at some of the jokes. But the plot was so poor that I almost forgot about that. Seriously Jonathan Liebesman needs to get replaced.

You make me want to do that. Repeatedly.

I have to somewhat agree with this. The turtles were fine in the movie. But they definitely need to be the main characters in the sequel.

I thought the turtles really needed to be more than one-dimensional stereotypes, but that's something that could easily be addressed in a sequel by slowing the pace down and giving the turtles more screen time.

You know she wouldn't, but she would sing a folk song about her fun afternoon.

Right after Leslie Burke cracked her skull open in that lake when the rope swing broke.

Awk-waaaard.

I did like the movie, and the kid was the best part for me. In the end of it all, even if the franchise is mature, kids are still the driving force behind it, I would think it be very arrogant to keep them out of the pictures altogether just because some people don't like kids in movies.

Edit: Also Andre Nemec and Josh Appelbaum were only responsible for rewrites on certain parts.(Well it seems like it) They are not responsible for the full plot.

I agree with the multiple writers. Not to mention, when dealing with the four Turtles whose personalities are very distinct, having one writer risks the chance that all of the Turtles start become similar. I've seen complaints that Leo and Raph are almost mirrors of eachother, and Leo himself doesn't exactly have his personality down yet. Yeah, we know he's the leader, but it would be nice if we can get a scenario to show how cool, calm and calculated he can be under pressure.

Not my call, it's the wife's. She gets the TV during Shark Week. That's one of "The Rules".

Your wife likes shark week?

~~Leo656~~ · 08-10-2014, 03:16 PM

No no, she "likes" Hanson. She's goddamn obsessed with Shark Week.

Stugehen · 08-10-2014, 03:18 PM

This is awesome news! Glad to see TMNT continue on the big screen. I would welcome different writers and a new director. As far as Platinum Dunes goes I don't mind that they are sticking to it. There wasn't anything in the production value I felt was lacking.

You know, TV's are cheap these days...they say a second TV saves marriages, and lives.

If I actually cared much about watching TV I might bother. It's usually just background noise.
