Lucky you! I had it on an old computer that died, but I don't have it now, sorry.

And scripts themselves can be "buried" but general ideas and huge chunks of scripts stick around for decades, because it's cheaper than starting fresh. The reason a ton of movies have "holes" is because the "script" was usually chunks of three, four, or a dozen scripts, all stapled together. It's standard practice. Nothing goes away completely.

"Man of Steel" had a bunch of stuff that's been floating through various scripts for over a decade, even costume details that have endured through many years and stalled projects. And "Dawn of Justice" is apparently going to have the same basic story outline as a half-dozen abandoned "Superman/Batman" film projects going back just as long; even if the story is different, many of the same basic story ideas are apparently the same.

Nothing gets fully "buried", just recycled. They pay too much for the scripts to just throw anything in the trash; they just cut and paste stuff into other projects. It's business.

Honestly What I really hope happens, is they acually let Pete voice Leo, the guy is perfect and he put in a lot of work to become Leo.

Knoxville wasnt that bad but I think Pete is perfect for it.

With that being said Alan did a fantastic job as Raph, he cant help what the writers did though.

It would be nice if they dated that interview. I don't think we're getting Leibesman back as the Director.

Personally, I think Dimension X is more fitting a third movie. If you're gonna aim for a trilogy, which most franchise movies seems to do, it's hard to top the plot of stopping an inter dimension warlord who commands armies of monstrous soldiers and advanced technology.

I whole heartedly agree. Bugging me enough I'd just posted (another...) Tweet calling for Pete to be allowed to next time.

In the trailers, given the clips they used there, I mostly liked what Knoxville did, and it sounds great for the "tough leader" moments (i.e. threatening April not to speak a word to anyone), but the film itself as a whole... no.

The film has other issues, but as a character I connect with a lot I think that bugs me the most. The gruffness works when he needs to sound tough, but outside those moments he still sounded so gruff, no variation in his demeanor. The lack of heart, kindness and serenity I'd expect to hear in his voice when he's not needing to put on the tough leader tone just wasn't there and leaves me kinda sad and empty over it.

Plus they're young characters and their actors are youngish... and then you give Leo the voice of a guy who's a polar opposite in his 40s.

Listening to Pete here, I really think he could bring to Leo what he lacked.

I've rambled enough about that for now though I guess. My hope for the sequel is riding heavily on fixing this for Leo and what development they can give to him and his brothers.

I'm not. They would probably look like hulking hideous beasts.

Dimension X in the sequels? Sounds good to me! Here's hoping we see Krang and the technodrome, too!

IDW is the best version of TMNT

If they make a TMNT reboot movie retelling the shredder battle/origin, I won't buy a ticket.

Personally, if they are going to go something with this route, I would have rather had the Triceratons, I think they would look more badass than a little brain on the big screen.

To bad my right click button doesn't work on my lap top, but I would post a picture but they are for sure huge and hulking, you know that already though.

playing devils advocate I suppose...
