FIRST LOOK @ Casey's Mask - Page 7

*The Boston Ninja Turtle* · 05-01-2015, 06:13 PM

1 scene with the rest without....cant hide the face the will bring the fan girls and dc fans in to see arrow pretend to be casey jones

as for the look of casey...yea i dont like it..for a movie that over roided the turtles its to simple..you expect me to beleive he can deal with giant roid hulks and 10 foot tall mutant monsters?

again there was no need to change the look just because they could...its hair for gods sakes, guys still have long hair these days...and you know what its probably more relatable than the crew cut

you guys are telling me if Thor had a crew cut you would be ok with it?

its not a design that comes and goes with every incarnation, its a staple of the character...he just doesnt look good like that

*TigerClaw* · 05-01-2015, 06:17 PM

What i think will happen is, all the scenes with the quieter moments, Will be Casey without the Mask, And only when hes in an action scene, Is with his Mask on.

*Shark_Blade* · 05-01-2015, 06:21 PM

Pretty much. Even Elias Koteas just used his mask once when assaulting the purse robbers (only like 6 seconds if I remember correctly).

Koteas had the mask on when he rescued April & The Turtles in the antique shop.

*Shark_Blade* · 05-01-2015, 06:29 PM

Oh yeah. He made an entrance, everybody paused, then they escaped.

I guess that's about less than a minute. But still yeah, twice in the movie. No biggie.

Maybe. Though I wouldn't assume or trust this bunch to give a damn or even wrap their heads around the concept of making something appeal to women. He makes a good looking Casey, but is that just a coincidence or Hollywood's usual preference for pretty people. lol

Don't wanna sound like a "I-hate-everything-different" crybaby, but I really can't find the reason for the change here.
Casey is a self made urban vigilante with no resources. He's not millionaire like Batman, so he has no suit, no fancy weapons, no sidekick, no batcave.
He has a simple hockey mask and some old bats to kick ass.

He is grunge BECAUSE of this: he oversleeps to hunt down criminals in NY all by himself and has no time and no interest in looking better. He has long hair because he's too busy doing his thing.

His mask isn't creepy not too flashy. He uses it to hide his identity and be safer during daytime. Scares thugs a little? I guess it does, but it not this Friday 1th way.

Don't see all this background in the new approach to Casey this far.

Ok...well as someone who keeps their head basically shaved, it's for the reason of not wanting to deal with the annoyance of hair...having no hair is easier than having hair. So either shaved, or just being a bum and letting the hair grow are basically the same things. He's not a skin head having to constantly shave his head down.

I honestly just feel like, if the mask need be SO large, his hair should be long so it doesn't look so off-balance. I mean, practically, that thing'd be sliding all over. It's noticeably large. Design isn't bad, and I know they'll shoot it in a way to try and offset the size, but if they weren't going to tone it down a bit, they may as well have had him with long-hair. Part of why I have long hair is because I have a long neck and I try and offset that (and it makes me look taller). There's actually a logic that goes into these hair decisions.

Clothes are plain but Casey always wears different stuff anyways. I agree it's kind of a lazy design but it could also have been needlessly overdone like everything they did last movie. I'd make the mask smaller and/or give him long hair to balance it out, otherwise eh. S'fine I guess.

....That's because it is Stephen Amell. He can act, and he can do a great job as Casey, but Casey is going to look like Stephen Amell because he's being PLAYED BY STEPHEN AMELL.

Exactly, Just like Elias Koteas

*Vicky82* · 05-02-2015, 08:57 AM

I do understand where they are coming from, they got used to seeing him play Arrow so much because he hasn't been in any other major rolls in any other shows, since he started Arrow. He's been doing Arrow for 4 seasons and the 3rd season hasn't finished yet and then 4th season will start later. So if they see him in a different show or movie, it's going to feel strange to them.

If he wasn't in TMNT 2 but got a role in a different movie, they will say the same thing.

I have the same problem with wrestlers in movies because i'm so used to seeing them wrestle in the ring but when they end up in a movie, it just feels wierd to me and I can't get into into the movie.

I'm used to seeing The Rock in movies now because he wrestles like once every couple of years and funny enough, I actually find it strange seeing him wrestle.

Why put film in inverted commas? It is a film, or a movie

and I believe the word you're looking for is "badass".

bushido · 05-02-2015, 11:21 AM

April only met guys with "masks". No wonder why she "freaks out"

Maybe she will faint again when Casey will introduce himself to her : "It's just a mask...see ?"

pain101 · 05-02-2015, 11:55 AM

The mask is the least of my worries. I actually think it looks pretty good. More of the type of masks goalies wear nowadays. I kind of wish it was closed on top. Would make more sense and provide better protection.

*Krutch* · 05-02-2015, 10:07 PM

I think the longer hair makes the mask look huge and even more like a horror movie but maybe thats just me...

I don't really care anymore haha.
This movie feels like its at least trying to course correct. At least thats something.

*snake* · 05-02-2015, 10:43 PM

Honestly? Nothing wrong with it. It's how Casey looks, and he looks like Casey.

Purse Grabbin Puke · 05-03-2015, 01:39 AM

I think the mask should be smaller so he can constantly scream OWWW everytime he gets hit in the ears... The mask is practical, it's cool enough looking for me.

That picture w/ hair is AWFUL...he DEFINITELY looks like Jeepers Creepers now.

boywonder26 · 05-03-2015, 01:35 PM

I don't know if it's been mentioned yet or pointed out but has anyone else noticed raph's sai sticking out of that shelf?

Mellie · 05-03-2015, 01:53 PM

Judging by the video in the other thread, Raph throws his sai near Casey's head and yells at him to get away from April.
