That was way too short for my liking. The one they wrote for the previous film was a good 3 minutes.

The one for the 2014 film was hilarious... I thought the way they made fun of the turtles' ugly designs was pretty clever.

For this one, I thought Mikey's stupid grin when he mentions "Fast and Furious" was hilarious.

Okay, but that was actually a way better way to handle the plane scene.

Really, I kind of which there was a scene of Shredder trying to "kill it with your weapons" upon seeing Krang for the first time. But since he technically had no weapons, sucker punching him in the face would suffice.

I still say College Humor did the "lethal weapons" shtick much better.

I did chuckle at April's "this is for kids" line though. That was it.

Two chuckles.

None for Tyler Perry, though.

They're pretty hit-and-miss these days, and that was definitely one of their misses. Their BvS video was pretty damn good though. Agreed that CollegeHumor did the whole "actually using their weapons" shtick miles better. The "for kids" joke gave me a nice burst of laughter, though.

College Humor doesn't do anything better.

Except suck.

yeah.... it was surprisingly short... They usually do 2 or 3 takes of the same scene with different version of 'how it should have ended'. The problem is the 'using their weapons for real' joke really applies to most versions of the TMNT, not just the movie. They should done jokes about the movie, not TMNT in general.

I think a better point to make is that Out of the Shadows doesn't just have the turtles not properly using their weapons but barely shows them fighting at all.

I know I've made this point before but even making my peace that the Platinum Dunes turtles are more super strong brawlers than martial artists but I was still stunned by the lack of actual combat in Out of the Shadows. If you've seen the trailers you've literally seen every scrap of fight footage this movie has. People talk about Secret of the Ooze's emphasis on slapstick heavy fight scenes but it's even weaker to just have the turtles just leaping around.
