That is Raphael...you can tell by threat his head is shaped and the foot in the background. That is were he was about to be jumped on the rooftop

Yeah I think you're right. The bandana just looks so orange.

The Utroms referred to it as a "Mutagenic Agent", but I can't recall them saying it was any sort of waste from their planet. I might wrong, tho.

If I am not mistaken that is why they were trying to get rid of it. Its been a min though.

At least people are getting wind and don't like the idea..

I really want to see the rest of that clip. There was obviously much more said.

Why's Michael Bay a scumbag, exactly? This is why "fanboys" get such a bad rap.

Mhm. Very ironic that the event was called "Nickelodeon Upfront" but no one from Viacom has been upfront about any of this.

I just find it strange. Why was only that little 15 second snippet revealed? More was obviously filmed. Does anyone know where the footage originated from? The presentation probably lasted for a good ten minutes.

Wait a second, are they really dropping the "Teenage Mutant" part of the title for the movie???

FearlessLeader · 03-19-2012, 02:18 PM

Just curious in a general way:

If the Turtle are not aliens, just their origin is and it's pretty close to what we have usually seen will people still be up in arms if they change the title to just "Ninja Turtles"??

Just personally while I honestly don't like the alien idea, it really doesn't matter to me if they just called the film Ninja Turtles.

I've always been for changing the title to "Ninja Turtles." But only if the material within the movie suitably justifies the greater emphasis on "Ninja." If it's a kiddy camp fest, just leave it as-is, I say.

*CyberCubed* · 03-19-2012, 03:03 PM

This movie is shaping up to be the worst thing to happen to the TMNT franchise since Next Mutation.

I would assume that the title change is not just because they’re aliens (if that ends up being the case), but also because they want to give them an edgier and more mature feel. Obviously having “Teenage” in the title will sort of back them into a corner, because no matter what the characters would have to at least act from time to time like conventional teenagers. Getting rid of the “Teenage” means that they don’t have to worry about that.

Your definition of "shaping up" is odd. We don't really know anything at this point.

*CyberCubed* · 03-19-2012, 03:41 PM

Every new detail leads to the worst case scenario.

Toby Barrett · 03-19-2012, 03:54 PM

You drive it to the worst case scenario.

Baxter Stockmen · 03-19-2012, 03:57 PM

I hate jumping to conclusion. So I'll just wait for a trailer.

*Oculus Orbus* · 03-19-2012, 03:59 PM

If they really make them into aliens, I won't care about the title. I mean, technically speaking, they won't even be turtles anymore.

True. Turtle-like aliens.

Like these guys, starting around 2:00. Except they actually make you drink blazing electric death.

(For those unsure about the link, it's the aliens in the movie, Laserblast, or the last MST3K episode on Comedy Central.)
