TMNT 2014 BD/DVD Release Dates & Exclusives

Thanks guys.
Part of me feels relieved that there aren't news about statues of Leo, Mikey, and Donnie being made. That way I don't have to consider getting 4 copies of the same movie just to get the statues.

[B-Man]

Haha I know what you mean, though I'd definitely get Leo since he's the most traditional looking of the new Turtles.

Just finished watching it for the first time since I saw it in theaters. Still as awesome as it was then.

Sweet what's your fave scene dude, out of curiosity?

When I ever have time, I will have to watch it, Since i got the 3D Video Wizard, I can view 3D Bluray movies in 3D on my 2d HDTV.

Probably the Mc Mikey Elevator scene or Splinter kicking ass or the snow scene

Yeah I'd say the Sewer Break-In. It's this movies equivalent of the Apartment Brawl from the original. The weapons wall exploding & all hell breaking loose. Splinter getting stuck into a group of Foot Soldiers (punching-in the head of one in particular). Donnie getting alarmed over the tranq darts & Leo not caring less ("Well don't let em' hit your skin"), doing a Tazmanian Devil spin-technique. Splinter briefly holding off Shredder (even with one arm at one point with his pimp hand) before closing the room off cause he knows he's losing. After much struggle, the Turtles finally making it to their father's aid but it's game over (while Brian Tyler's score goes operatic). Splinter left a lifeless heap on the ground/the Turtles eletrocuted & captured/their home bombed. Epic scene. Hope the sequel has more Sh*t Gets Real moments.

ONLY problem with introducing Casey Jones means more Megan Fox screentime (due to the inevitable romance of the characters). Casey talking in insults with the Turtles would be welcome, though.

Yeah, she's pretty much guaranteed for the sequel though. The thing is I don't even blame her so much as what she had to work with. Her April was flatly written & there wasn't much for her to do but look scared. Such a one-note role. April in the 1990 film was great part for any actress. I can't picture even Emma Stone making this new April fun. Fox isn't inherently likeable, so she didn't stand a chance. Hopefully in the sequel they'll let April be more natural since the initial shock of everything is over (Fox was sexy, down-to-earth & bubbly in Judd Apatow's 'This Is 40', so she is capable).

[Hannurdock]

Agreed 100%. Find someone with spunk and on-screen charisma. Maybe someone like Kristen Bell.

I also kinda hope they re-cast Shredder.

William Fichtner has been confirmed to return in the sequel right? Maybe he will be re-casted as Shredder? It could make sense for Eric Sacks (read: Oroku Saki) to take up the mantle of his sensei as Shredder and this time, actually have a true grudge against the turtles and April for severely injuring (or killing) his sensei (instead of just: I want the mutagen in your blood). Sort of like the 4Kids series when Karai assumed Shredder's identity after he was gone and sought vengeance against the turtles.

I really don't mind if they go this direction, the irony would be telling for Fichtner to be originally casted as Shredder, re-casted halfway into production, and come one full round to return in the sequel as Shredder again! But seriously it could work.

i thought targets "extra bonus disc" would have more **** on it but really what they did was take all the special **** and just take it from the blu ray and put it on its own disc.. so now i have special features on the blu ray and a whole separate disc of special features... such BS... but the donnie slip cover is worth it

Nope.

The only actors confirmed so far are Megan Fox and Will Arnett,

I would mind. Why have a stand-in when they at least made a (last minute) effort to give us the real thing?

If they want to go the rout the 4kids series did with Karai taking up the mantle then don't we actually have Karai herself in the movie for that? If they gave that role to Fictner it would just be the same situation as the first movie where they give a new character a role than an established and popular should have. It would be like they'd learned nothing from the mistakes of the first. We could also kiss goodbye to any hope we could get some back story to Saki or Yoshi.

Also to be blunt I still can't picture Fichtner as a ninja master and it's not like he's a huge name or an actor so talented he must be there. I know he has a multi-picture deal but they can transfer him to another Paramount movie.

Same goes for Will Arnett. For a comedy actor he didn't do anything humorous and he was rather bland as a more serious ally. I know it may be harsh on the actors in question but then again I suspect those two may be happy to go another movie series better suited to their talents (and one that doesn't seem so much like a shinking ship).

Wuuut... >.>

So it's pretty much the same thing as the main disc minus the movie? Well they just laughed all the way to the bank didn't they....

I ended up getting the Wal-Mart box set with the BR, the figures, and the masks. Nice little package for the money, probably the best deal out of everything out there. It only has two masks (reversible) but that's okay, because they look cool, and it was a nice bonus. I mostly got it for the figures anyway. My only minor complaint was a lack of deleted scenes except for the extended ending, and that the Donnie figure is WAY taller than the others. They all have legs bent except him, though, so I'm wondering if that's why. But he's almost two heads taller than Mikey, and a full head taller than the other two. But they look pretty good.
