Bebop & Rocksteady pre-mutation - First Look

[Powder]

These films are proof God isn't real, if anything. That, or he's finally punishing us for our crimes against him.

Michael Bay continues to get work, god is dead.

That would explain a lot, actually.

People, it's Hollywood, that's "making deals with the devil" territory for sure, and sorts like Bay probably have a direct line. lol

And the nose ring looks atrocious.

Remove those two elements, and Bebop would look rather intimidating.

Dude, that costume design has way more problems than just the ghastly mohawk (clearly inspired by Barney's pubic hair) and ugly septum jewelry.

I present to you Exhibit A: the leather chaps. Perhaps he and S&M Shredder like to go to the same bondage bars?

I also present Exhibit B: the chain wrapped around the spiked arm cuff, a bold move often seen by teens on VampireFreaks.com who can't yet tell where the line begins on "trying too hard".

It's sooooooo goddamn purple. It's perfect!

Yeah, but it's BEBOP. Bebop's an idiot who probably WOULD dress in leather chaps and chained spiked arm cuffs because it makes him look tough. It's not like his fashion in the OT was any better... or the Tron suit from Nick. I think his wardrobe from IDW is the closest thing to normal we've ever seen him in.

But that mohawk... <shiver>

Why the negativity? This is awesome. If you're still butthurt that we didn't get the Mirage inspired movie then I'm sorry but you need to get over it. I was pretty bummed too after Laird had promised us an amazing new movie and Viacom changed everything. But after fan outcry they did change the horrible plans for the 2014 movie and they ended up making a decent movie that is easily redeemable. Sure it isn't the Mirage film we wanted but it's taking it in a new fun direction. Yeah they're going for heavy OT influence but is that really a bad thing? It's something different and new and it's interesting to see where they take the franchise since it's something totally different than what we expect, they can go sci-fi heavy with these films. I'm totally expecting the technodrome in the third movie and crazy action, just fun movies. Say what you want but I prefer this over the more traditional 2007 snooze fest movie we got.

It's not the fact that it wasn't Mirage inspired that people are upset. It's the fact that this movie screwed up in every possible sense. They couldn't even get the origin story right, for goodness sakes! The Turtles deserve a better movie, one without the involvement of Michael Bay and Platnium Dunes.

It's not a case that it's a Fred Wolf-esque movie which is a big assumption based them using something superficial ripped right from there.

After all there's still Karai and human Foot and a Casey that I'm sure wont want to "break something" which makes this a patchwork of influences even if it's only surface level. It's just a case that it flat-out doesn't look good.

Yeah, I don't get it either, Sure there are fans of other iterations, They just cant seem to let it go, If they are catering to one group of fans, Then they should let it be, Besides they can continue enjoying there favorite version of TMNT all they want, Being a child of the 80s, I grew up with 80s Fred Wolf TMNT, and it brings joy, How much they are taking some of its influence in the sequel.

I agree why the negativity? I mean I get why Megan Fox gets flack in these movies and turtles designs were pretty rough but come on guys you can't tell me that this Bebop not a direct fan service to us old dogs from the 87 series.

I think he looks great and am so stoked to see the new Shredder and Karai.




After all Sheamus could have been cast as Bebop and we could have ended up with something more like this.....

[turtlefanforever]

ridiculous. but fairly spot on

[Candy Kappa]

Sheamus' pants is so far the best part of Bebop and Rocksteady.


And probably the second best thing after Brian Tee as far as we've seen so far.

[TigerClaw]

I really hope we get to see the actors wearing the MoCap suits.

[MastahShredder]

[Shark_Blade]

Bebop looks like any other wrestler from WWE, I think they nailed it spot on.

[neatoman]

So no word on what their mutated forms will look like?

[Xav]

Probably like a rhino and a warthog.
