Who does Casey fight in the movie?

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

The first movie was complete garbage, and was in no way a viable foundation to try and build a franchise on. It was the TMNT's Fant4stic, and yet we let them produce a sequel that is only marginally better.

Shame on us. My TMNT fan money is reserved for IDW comics alone.

So yeah, I'll sate my morbid curiosity with a free viewing sometime down the line (gas up the ol' pirate ship). But my opinion on the entire production and state of the franchise remains the same.

"Shredder does literally nothing in this movie"...

Under that guys logic, you could argue that Shredder "literally" did nothing in SOTO. What did he do? Grabbed a scientist to make mutants for him because he failed against the turtles. Even when he became Super Shredder, he ends up committing suicide by ripping apart the dock. No big fight.

So other, not-so-great-outside-of-nostalgia movie did it, and that means it's totally okay that this movie did it too.

AFTER completely f*cking Shredder up in every way their first go around, and giving us a very lackluster fight that ended in, literally, leap frog and then Megan O'Fox delivering the final blow.

Cool. Gotcha.

Once again, just because I'll be damned if I spend cash on this thing

second question, if you would

Spoiler:

Do the Turtles turn human?

Thanks for kindly saving me a dollar. You rock.

Do you remember if Krang's name was spelled with one or two as in the credits?

Shredder does his share in this movie is my point. However, this time he's working for a bigger villain. Second quote? I don't know I didn't say anything about that

I mentioned it earlier. It's not as present as it appears in the trailer. It stirs up a different conflict between the turtles

Spoiler:

ahhh, okay, it's the " be proud of who you are" vs "we could be people" thing, but it doesn't happen... Sorry, just didn't feel like reading through pages of blah blah back and forth.

sweet. thanks.

Not really. That's what I thought it was going to be too when I saw the trailer. It's more about Leo as a leader

A bit bummed out by that news since in every other incarnation, even the OT and the first Bay film, Shredder had his moments against the turtles where he was able to kick their asses with ease. Atleast Krang will have the epic showdown with the turtles this time.

But that would by no means make the film worse in my opinion. I absolutely loved SOTO and I feel that in a similar escence to that movie both content and tone-wise, this second bay film will have ALOT of entertaining stuff going for it, making it among the better tmnt films.

It's hard to talk about what happens without giving everything away. There are surprises along the way with Shredder, Baxter, etc. However, they'll probably all be spoiled before the movie comes out.

Because my previous post was overlooked.

"How's the inside of the technodrome? Is the inside of it very familiar to how it is in the 1980s TMNT cartoon? Do Beebop and Rocksteady hold their own against the turtles very well? Doe's Krang's body expand at any point? What doe's Dimenson-X look like?"

Sorry, I didn't see when you previously posted. The first question is hard to answer without spoiling. For Bebop and Rocksteady, they hold their own for the most part, however, like the 80s show, the turtles are able to outsmart them from time to time. Krang's body is pretty crazy. I still don't understand the logic of it. Dimension X, we only get one location of. It's Krang's lair.

Does Shredder fight anyone in this film?

Only his own dignity. Possibly his actor's ability to ever be seriously considered for serious roles in, you know, serious "real" movies in the future. Both powerful adversaries.
