As if this movie would have the time (literal runtime) for that.

Yeah, I imagine part of Karai's recasting goes hand in hand in playing towards the Leo and Karai relationship/rivalry.

*Vicky82* · 05-28-2015, 10:51 AM

Wow, they both look great.

Volume 1 ended in 1993. Those are the original comics, which is what I mentioned before. My point still stands.

Not to mention the fact that Eastman is no longer involved, therefore, the original comics ended long ago.

that said, given the amount of changes they are making in this film, I would not be surprised if they elected to boot Knoxville - the backlash his voice got with the critics (and fans alike), might just force them to give Pete a chance.

I thought Knoxville did a decent job, or am I the only one?

You can say that again.

Is there really any need for this thread anymore? There should just be a 2016 TMNT casting thread, otherwise this one will just continue to be the latest off-topic thread.

Brian Tee looks awesome, can't wait to see him in his full Shredder gear.

Karai's outfit looks cool, not sure about her face though. It looks weird.

Loving the Foot Clan designs, far better than the first film. Those didn't even deserve to be considered the Foot Clan.

Although I hate that they went the Bryan Singer route of using black leather, these costumes look a whole lot better than the first movie designs.

I'm shocked and pleasantly surprised that PD is making these changes. Having the Foot Clan actually be ninjas? What a novel idea.

Hopefully they toned down the design of the Turtles too.

*THGhost* · 05-28-2015, 11:21 AM

Whoever it was that questioned my comment about this film "getting better and better" - What do you have to say for yourself now?

Sure, the final product could still turn out like the last one. But at least they're trying this time!

I actually really liked the retractable blades.

*Autbot_Benz* · 05-28-2015, 11:24 AM

Shredder is looking cool. I really hope they give him regular armor instead of Megatron's remains

As long as Michael Bay is involved, I doubt that will ever happen.

probably but one can hope.

What's this? We're actually staying on topic? My God!

So the Foot Clan have swords now. Was that so hard, Platinum Dunes? Was that so hard?

Who knows... the ones who go to see this "film" may actually see... ninja fighting this time.

God forbid!

I remember a video of Megan Fox being chased across a street by more traditional, slimmer Foot ninjas too. Or did I just imagine that? *Waits for someone to post it*

Huzzah · 05-28-2015, 11:42 AM

Though unless the Turtles are shrunken down and depowered some, won't be much of a fight.

If it ends up true (though yeah, his name has been stuck in there a while as if it was just assumed) I'll be in my room having a cry if anyone needs me.

Who do I have to slap on that set to get some sense into them and let Pete do it.

No. I think there's like one other somewhere.

Decent in like 10% of it maybe.

massakre · 05-28-2015, 11:49 AM

not bad.. this is screaming soft reboot to me.. none of this is reminiscent of the first film.

I was thinking about that, would be interesting if the armor is weaponized and added on over their traditional gear so they can actually engage the turtles in straight up combat. Similar to Foot Mech from 2k3

*IndigoErth* · 05-28-2015, 12:03 PM

Definitely at least some alterations in the right direction. (If they keep going I may start to wonder if Bay is hogtied with duct tape over his mouth.)
