Bebop & Rocksteady's ride, perhaps...?

If that would be the case, and if they're at least as big as the Turtles, well... I look forward to seeing them try to fit into it. lol

(I meant when they're humans). If it's not theirs, I don't have a clue who else's it could be

What is all this wank with the cars? This is TMNT, not Fast & The Furious. It's not particularly important for Casey Jones to drive a hotted-up black muscle car, or for us to see hybrid pimp-mobiles.

Once again, this movie can't work out whether it wants to be realistic or cartoony - none of the Turtle vehicles that we've seen are likely to not attract attention (or get them pulled over for illegal alterations).

Either go the Nolan route or go the Fred Wolf route - this jumbled mix of the two is giving me complete cognitive dissonance. Set the rules for your world and stick with them. Good grief.

Word. Totally agree.

F**kin hope not it's a two-seater, it should be for a duo. I can deal with this fast & furious-like car porn if its to give star villians their own trademark vehicle (the same way the Turtles have theirs). But not for two random Foot members.

simple answer...Bay's background is in car and Victoria secret commercials...think back now to all his movies and notice what gets more focus..

transformers had some great driving scenes..but thats cause its how he started..those very scenes could literally be removed and made into commercials

its clear by his movies he doesnt know how to steer away from his roots

[pennydreadful]

It's clear by his movies that he should have stayed in advertising.

[IndigoErth]

TMNT as social commentary on how the most evil people are wealthy people (thus lots of expensive cars), thus a freudian admittance by the rich film makers and their evil film making techniques.



Also, how do the Turtles get fuel for that truck..? Speaking of vehicles. I believe the van has a solar panel (though that might not necessarily be for the engine?), but that truck probably takes expensive diesel. I'm just about convinced they somehow got credit cards in their names and by remaining unknown they'll never have to be accountable for those credit card bills. (At least with a card they could fill the tank late at night when no one is looking. lol)

As much as I loathe these movies, we have to admit the guy who did the 1st TMNT film, Steve Barron, before hand was best known for:

At least that's creative and interesting-looking.

The meatloaf music video is fulllllll of Bay tropes(sunsets, helicopters, etc). He's been doing the same **** for like 20 years.

He sucks.

And Meatloaf is awesome(when he's doing the rock opera stuff, and even a decent-ish, entertaining actor).

But Michael Bay is a ****ing hack who got lucky.

You've just given more thought to tone than everyone involved in making these movies. Combined.

Considered one of the best music videos of all time, to be fair. I think it shows that Barron had/has the talent and ability to shift between different skill sets. While Bay can't seem to stop doing the same tricks over and over, no matter how poorly they fit the project.

It is a study of Bay-Tropes, ain't it?
