It's surprising how unprofessional people can allow themselves to look.

Probably one of the worst ones to me was when Donnie's actor decided to jump on board the attitude train as well. I don't even recall what he'd said, might have involved the Turtle's designs...but seriously that part doesn't involve him, only thing his 'tude did was make me think a bit less of him, which is unfortunate because the Turtle's actors (and stunt guys) are one team that did great imo and were a highlight of the whole project.

The folks behind the hotly debated designs have themselves come across very professionally in that they seem to have said little to nothing over it, even if it probably sucked for them to hear criticism. Bay & Co could learn from them.


But I digress, this thread is about the script itself.

"Leonardo, if we want to make it home before master we gotta hustle"

This line. So, where is Splinter exactly? Where does a giant humanoid rat even go, for long enough that his Turtle kids have time to sneak out of the house to fight bad guys when they aren't allowed out.

Also... cases of Crush soda, they apparently enjoy Poptarts - or at least Donnie enjoys the icing that probably takes forever to lick off of them - how exactly do they obtain these groceries.
