Because TMNT is a stupid crappy turd. So why not?

Sounds about as good as his goofy Superman mini I just read

*Foombamaroom* · 06-25-2016, 07:44 AM

I'm completely dumbfounded that this man gets paid to write movies.

*Powder* · 06-25-2016, 07:45 AM

The whole world is screwed. Where art thou, Meteors...

Hey, fun fact: One night, on the set of Twilightzone, he was shooting a scene where a helicopter was landing. He was having a difficult time framing the actors and the helicopter, so he started yelling, like a maniac: closer you assholes! Get the chopper closer! Bring it down!

Landis, is famous for being emotionally unbalanced...it seems to run in the family...

"Closer!" He screamed! You ****s, get it ****ing closer... CLOSER!!!!

CLO--

...

Yep... the pilot did as he was told, and took the actors heads clean off their bodies. An adult, and a child.

Fun fact #2

Max Landis was the inspiration for Alex Luthor, son of Lex Luthor, in BVS.

So now you know...

Well... That was terrible.

Even funnier, Max made a video criticising BVS.

It's one of the "ghost stories" they told on the set of the blues brothers sequel when he would start acting like a dick. He'd start yelling and a grip would side eye another grip and mutter... "closer!!!!" and give a laugh...

...

He's not well liked.

Doesn't matter. And I don't mind. I was curious.

Had a fun time listening to his pitch. Pretty hilarious and while it wouldn't be my ideal tmnt movie, it sounds better than what we got.

I think it would be a good thing if this video blew up and he ended up being contacted to script an actual legit Turtles movie.

If he did, he should read the IDW comics to get a sense of what the story should be.

I'd add some other elements as to not alienate one part of the fanbase.

Venus wasn't in OOTS, and the Turtles being interested in turning human was a compelling part of the movie.

But whatever, enjoy your routine, safe, predictable "silent age" bollocks

He's as outwardly against Mirage as you are, dipstick. Stop sh*tting on the source material, especially when it's not even a part of the conversation. If you're really 35 years old, act like it.

He's simply not able to act his age, literally. He openly admitted to suffering from aspergers, so the way he acts really can't be helped.

Still trying to figure out whether you like TMNT or not.

You do realize he's not actually serious, right?
