Everything Great About TMNT 2014

Non-fandom stuff is understandable if no one cares if it's bad. Nobody has any existing emotional attachment to it so it doesn't usually matter. If the Turtles were something new and existed only in these films, no one would give a damn either.

Take beloved characters who have been around for over 30 years and don't be mindful enough to do right by it and yeah, it's also understandable that many people are going to take it personally. These guys have been a part of many people's lives for most or all of their lives... at that point doing wrong by it is almost like doing wrong by family.

~~Mr. Burns~~, I mean Bay, annoys me now, but before these films I had close to no knowledge of who he was other than having heard the name now and then. So I did not go into this with any desire to hate on him or the films because of him. But now that I'm more aware of this cash grabber...

Just an irritating manchild who apparently wants to insert his same old "been done to death" nonsense, which sucks, though imo the writers deserve more criticism then they've gotten seeing as how they came up with the lion's share of dumb ideas. And the first director, who was shamefully clueless about the characters even after spending months making the thing.
