Should Jackie Chan be in TMNT 3?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!!!!

Of course I'm mocking those other threads I'm bored. At least mine is a bit logical. If Jackie Chan were to be in TMNT 3, what role would you think he'd take. Would you even want him in it? just speak I'm bored no exposition.

Jackie Chan is awesome!

But this isn't his sort of film (he prefers original martial arts films), and anyway he's getting old.

YES! Have him be Master Mogo from the OT, who found a feral just-mutated splinter in the sewers and taught him to speak, dress, and martial arts during the years the turtles were babies. And make him a Chinese Kung-fu master, so the Chinese audience doesn't get 'offended' or something. Either that, or make him Chi Husi/Warrior Dragon.

If they make a TMNT reboot movie retelling the shredder battle/origin, I won't buy a ticket.

He could choreograph, sure. I don't see why you would want him in a role though?

I'm tolerant. Hamato Yoshi can have Chinese origin for a change, much like Ironman is now a black woman.

There are ways to remove Hamato Yoshi from the Equation, and still have a valid TMNT origin.

I was once thinking about doing a plot where Tang Shen was a martial artist from China who owned a pet rat named splinter, and came to this country to open a martial arts school. She met and rejected rejected the Japanese Ororku Saki's love and he dueled and killed her. Splinter is then mutated like in the original story, and as he grows Tang Shen's spirit appears to him in visions and teaches him martial arts, which he then passes onto the turtles when they grow old enough. And this works better anyway because Tang Shen is a Chinese name, and here she isn't just a helpless victim who is murdered to move the plot along.

This is a very interesting, creative idea. I wouldn't mind seeing it in a future movie.

Still don't like the idea of Hollywood kowtowing to those evil authoritarian pricks in the Chinese government just for more money.

While we're at it, might as well refer the Turtles' weapons to their non-Japanese names; siang tépi, gun and tabak-toyok. Make extra sure that Mikey's chucks are more tabak-toyok looking in design over the Okinawan nunchaku, and drop leo' Daisho with a pair of dao.

Then we can have full on Teenage Mutant Wushu Turtles where only the badguy is Japanese and uses budo.

Lmao.

Better yet, make Shredder be from Hong Kong and have the Foot Clan all be Tiananmen Square demonstrators and filthy Tibetans.

PD and their Chinese investor buddies are gonna **** their pants when the plants report these ideas. They're sitting on a gold mine!

Not all versions of the TMNT use those exact weapons. For example, the Nick Leo uses a Niten Ryu. And considering how much research and accuracy went into the original story, from a time when comic book writers thought "ninjas=generic kewel martial artists", and how accurate names like "Oroku Saki" and "Tang Shen the Japanese woman" are, along with Tang being nothing more than a story prop to be beaten and murdered originally, I feel nothing wrong with changing it up.

She was making fun of PD's desire to conform to the will of the Chinese investors.

Side note: I actually love the idea that Shredder grew up with a girl name. The "boy named Sue" complex explains why he's such a bastard.

Oh yeah, I won't argue on the quality (or lack therof) in platimun Dunes's TMNT. That can not be made fun of enough.
