Happy 1 Year Anniversary TMNT 2014!

Etsy, it was more than that. You called the people who hated this movie whiners and that's where it escalated. It's fine if you like the movie, but I don't for my own reasons, and instead of respecting that, you're calling myself and others who differ from your opinion whiners. Not cool, dude. Not cool.

I don't care if people don't like the movie. It's just the certain people who constantly and non stop proclaim their hate for the movie. I respect you and others opinions. I just don't like it when people try to make hating tmnt 2014 into a religion.

Eastman and Laird = Original Biblical writers.
Michael Bay and Co. = King James.

I'm the type who wants the Turtles treated with respect, and Michael Bay has not done that. I'll stick with the Nick show, thank you very much. Yes, that show has some flaws, but for the most part, they treat the franchise with respect and know what the fans want and respect what came before, and that's what I want when someone handles TMNT.

High-five, milady. You have spoken truth, that cannot be argued with except by idiots.

... Not sure how you know that to be a thing, but this particular dawg is ignorant of said group of people and happily desires to remain so ignorant.

Nah, more like:

Eastman, Laird, Lawson: original writers of the Bible
Michael Bay: Beginner's Bible, but with more boobs and explosions (and Orange Crush)
People who approve of Michael Bay's movie: those annoying Latter Day Saints evangelists who show up at your door when you're trying to eat dinner... y'just want them to go away and leave you alone

Caveat: At least the four actors who played the Turtles gave enough of a crap to make the movie watchable. Not good, but watchable.

Took the words right out of my mouth but not from the same perspective, because it really really really goes both ways. Some supporters have previously acted like this is TMNT Jesus and nearly pray for a turtle smiting upon those who don't share their acceptance.

For a long time there, esp via the film's FB page, I saw MANY supporters of it making posts basically baiting people who didn't agree with their love of it. Replies I can understand (goodness knows humanity can't not resist having a catty comeback), but I saw numerous non-reply unprovoked comments that seemed to just be there to provoke other people; and from either side, there's no need for that.

Absolutely agreed. It's fine to like or not like the movie, but of the love of all that is good in the world, please respect the views of the other side! And don't just gripe ad nauseum just to rub it in. And that's aimed at BOTH sides.

Not to mention there are people behind it that seem to be fellow fans. Rather than someone who is only a fan of the way it can fatten their bank account. (Sure, film is for profit, but once upon a time it was also originally an art and made for art and storytelling sake.)

Indigo: Truer words were never spoken.

Michael Bay is more like one of those Jehovah's Witness guys who want you to buy into their religion.

People who love this movie are like the Jehovah's Witnesses who come to your door and try to sell their faith to you no matter how many times you tell them you're not interested.

But the lovers never came to any of the disliker's door....It's the dislikers that keep coming to TMNT 2014's door (aka forum/threads). Oooh, the irony. There's the door for you.

Yes we know you secretly like this movie, even if you deny it. Or not, who cares. Don't worry we all fans here. Likers and 'dislikers' thanks for making this movie a legendary box office hit.

Legendary box office hit???

You do realize this film made way less more than Guardians of the Galaxy, right? It's not even in the top 10, bruh.

Yeah, it's called Warriors of Truth. As ancient missionaries would go out to the savages and educate them in religious truth, so we go out into the dark and savage world to educate people in good taste.

It's an uphill battle every step of the way. And yet, WE SHALL OVERCOME.

Now, let's all hold hands and sing.
