Ok I know who April and Casey and Karai are! - Page 2

johnnyblaze · 12-20-2006, 11:31 PM

you can see April in the corner of that group image as well. It looks like they are at a temple or something. With Splinter there I wonder if that means he's going to be in the battle, kicking some ass alongside the boys

*gobo* · 12-20-2006, 11:35 PM

Don't you just love it when professionals refer to turtles as amphibians like they did here? I guess if the reporter doesn't mind making himself or herself sound foolish, I shouldm't care either. ^_^

You think?

I think. It's certainly gaining momentum to become just that. But, it's almost like old-skool fans of TMNT don't even acknowledge the recent toons. That seems odd to me.

*Kendamu* · 12-20-2006, 11:43 PM

Most of the oldschool fans who watched the old toon that I ask about the new toon don't like it due to it not actually being the oldschool cartoon reborn.

The "C0W4BUHNGAH!!!1" fans very much outweigh the "OMG LEO KILLED T3H SHREDDAR WIT DEECAPINASHIN!!!!111" fans.

Oh yeah. Love it. That's totally hot.

The problem is that article was written by an adult at USA Today. I have a personal grudge against USA Today. Because they suck.

And no more news articles for me. Too spoilery.

*psst* Most of them don't know 2K3 exists.

*Masked Ninja* · 12-21-2006, 12:28 AM

Holy - wow... look how built Raph is, especially compared to Mikey. Sweet. His plastron is even a little convex on the sides, which makes him look even bigger. Too bad you can't see Don very well. And

fuzzy Splinter. Now I'm REALLY hoping he kicks butt.

Too bad I don't watch Buffy... and didn't see Fantastic Four... or I might know what those voices sound like. I might hit up Google video in a sec to see (would try Youtube, but it's been blocked on my network).

But holycrap. Patrick Stewart = yes.

*ZariusTwo* · 12-21-2006, 01:21 AM

This looks like a movie that knows how to treat it's fans right, unlike Transformers.

*Raph's Girl* · 12-21-2006, 02:18 AM

Sarah Michelle Gellar as April?! Well um... at least April has experience in fighting monsters....

I always thought the Turtle van resembled the Mystery Machine...

But Patrick Stewart as Max Winters!! WOOT!!!

I wonder who voices the turtles tho??

~~ThemanthatwouldbeRaphael~~ · 12-21-2006, 02:20 AM

What I'm hoping for...

Leo: Jason Mardsen
Don: Billy West
Mikey: Will Fridle
Raph: Steve Blum

U refering to Karai being so skinny or the fact that those foot soldiers look like bugs?

ThemanthatwouldbeRaphael: The USA today article said that the turtles wouldn't have any "celeb" voices... just April, Casey, Splinter, Karai, and Max Winters.

Mandi-chan · 12-21-2006, 04:46 AM

This cast it awesome!

SMG...Patrick Stewart...MAKO! *dies of happines*

Good to finally have a good look at Karai. I think she's pretty, a little too skinny though (at least she's not as skinny as Mirage from the Incredibles...my goodness that woman really did look like a twig!).

Draconic · 12-21-2006, 09:39 AM

Looks like you can also tell them apart by the top part of their plastrons... Turtle Cleavage. Leo's is is kinda sharp, while Donny's is a little softer looking.

To Karai. Her waist is just so... unnatural.

But yeah, there's also something "buggish" in the appearance of the Foot Clan. They look like ants to me.

*Roseangelo* · 12-21-2006, 10:14 AM

Am I the only person NOT bothered by Karai? It's a style, not a representation of real life. And this isn't the first animation project to use such a style. Anyone ever watch anime?

Well Raph appears to be closer than the rest, so he should look bigger. I'm sure there is still a size difference but I don't think it's as large as some people think.

TerranigmaFreak · 12-21-2006, 10:40 AM

Other than Patrick Stewart, I don't really care for the other people.

This movie looks great, but the human character design is just horrible. They look more and more out of place in the movie. TMNT look dead serious, but the women has a bit of a... Bratz look to them... *shivers* Karai looks like the weight of her head will cause her to bend backward and snap her body in half.

Quote:

Also, about the size of Raph... I think he's actually a bit closer to the screen than Mikey. Still there's no denying that he is bulkier than Mikey, but this picture makes it more obvious partly because Raph is closer. At least that's what it looks like. I could be wrong though. Kind of hard to tell.

*Masked Ninja* · 12-21-2006, 10:53 AM

I imagine they're all close to the same size, yes. I'm just looking at the shape of the shoulders and arms - Raph has some serious traps, while Mikey has much less. Raph has a thicker neck, too, relative to the size of his head.

*Anarky* · 12-21-2006, 10:58 AM

You know, I noticed something. While the TMNT and Splnter look rather good, Karai seems to have been lifted from one of those Barbie-CGI-movies. I understand that they need to save money wherever they can, but such an imbalanced look on the main cast? I doubt that's a very good idea.

And why on earth is her waist only about 2 inches in diameter? That's just insane.

Amen to those.

Casey-doll and April-doll, ugh. I wish this movie had no human characters at all. Because, by contrast, the TMNT look pretty cool.

It's not that we are obliged to like this style. We're free to criticise it.

*discordiatookie* · 12-21-2006, 11:56 AM

i'm not complaining! i kinda dig it, and also look! the foot soldiers are wearing Y-fronts!!!!
