How would you feel if the Turtles in the movie look like the Activision game? - Page 2

Bossa Nova · 03-06-2013, 02:02 PM

Honestly, I'd be pretty damned pleased. Obviously for the movie a lot more detail would need to be added as this is a toned down version for a game, but when I first saw these pics for the game I was all sorts of excited. This is how I like my turtles to like as opposed to the cutesy, baby faced version Nick has going on (which...ARE adorable don't get me wrong, but not what I want to see for a PG-13 violent action feature length film). If the new film's turtles used something like the game turtles as a based, well, I would no longer consider the movie a total loss.

*Galactus* · 03-06-2013, 07:53 PM

I'd prefer something a bit more standard like the look in the first two live action movies but apart from the nostrils (which is my minor nitpick) I wouldn't mind something akin to the look in the upcoming game at all. As a "realistic" take on the turtles I like it.

*Donatello19* · 03-06-2013, 07:56 PM

I'd be very disappointed if this is how they looked in the movie, but if they do, then it is what it is.

Lord Nightwalker · 03-06-2013, 10:37 PM

That's realy not that bad. Face needs a little work, but the more realistic approach is not without merit. The detail in the body alone sures promise.I am assuming this is a work in progress, so it could evolve into something realy cool. I'll wait and see before passing to critical a judgement on it, it better be a blast to play. I attempted to mod the Argonian from Skyrim into a realistic Ninja Turtle and wasn't to successful. lol.

They look a little scaly but personally I would take scales over spots any day. As long as they don't look like crocodile scales like that Michelangelo head sculpt.

jacobzking · 03-07-2013, 08:45 AM

looks like a "real" version of the 2012 nick cartoon, not too bad. i think his goofy smiles makes it look way worse than it is. and the head seems a little small.

could be worse.

arizvega · 03-07-2013, 09:20 AM

very sad

*Shark_Blade* · 03-07-2013, 09:39 AM

I kinda like it. Yeah, I can work with that.

*Jephael* · 03-07-2013, 09:50 AM

I can see these sort of designs making for good artwork in a comic book, but I dunno if they'd work in the movie. BTW, I just noticed they only have 2 toes per foot!

the fixer · 03-07-2013, 09:57 AM

I wouldn't be thrilled, no. Not for the movie...

In fact, I wouldn't mind if the Bay Turtles looked more like Raphael in that 'Fight the Foot' trailer from a few years ago...
Y'guys remember that?
He looked realistic, monstrous and frightning enough without being repulsive. Good monster design, right there.

I wonder what happened to that project...

Oh yeah. Tribute to the past turtles maybe?

Gwydion · 03-07-2013, 12:15 PM

I think the more I look at these designs, the less I dislike them. They just took a bit of getting used to, and while they aren't my favorite Turtle designs, I wouldn't say I'd be super disappointed if something similar was used for the movie. There have been other TMNT designs I haven't cared for upon first seeing them, but I've gotten used to all of them and some of them I actually now really like.

Also, have to admit, I do like the two toed feet.

*TurtleTitan97* · 03-07-2013, 04:40 PM

I think I'd be okay if the turtles looked similar to these designs in the new movie. Their not my top favorite look for them, but I think their okay for what they are.

jestermon · 03-07-2013, 05:55 PM

I think it would be horrible, my problem is if you are going to change something just change it all, it makes no sense why you would make the neck down look exactly the same if not similar, then make the head completely different.

I'm not saying It has to be like the old movie or cartoon, but if they are going to re-design, change it all while you're at it don't make them look exactly the same from the neck down then just have something dumb like normal human faces with green paint on.

Like with Transformers while I am not a fan of the designs, at least they didn't keep everything from the neck down G1 then just slap on the Bay stle heads.

Good point. I think even if the Bay movie used those designs, the faces would have been altered with more details to show all sorts of emotions. I already assume all the 80's TMNT fans would bash the movie to hell and back.

Y'all are lucky you aren't Transformers fans (although soem of you might be). Those suckers didn't look a goddamn thing like the original designs in the movies. I'd say we'd be VERY lucky to get Turtles as accurate as the game designs are. We'll probably end up with something like this.

jestermon · 03-07-2013, 09:15 PM

You know those don't look bad better than the picture in the first post.

Different turtle types would be neat, I was thinking too if they are supposed to be aliens it would be a lot easier to explain them having Utrom or Triceraton enemies.

If they were just other aliens that fought them instead of being random characters that met up.

sgtfbomb · 03-07-2013, 09:32 PM

I'm not against change. I'm just for change that is good and these designs are pretty ugly.

grungethemovie · 03-07-2013, 09:36 PM

THIS is what they should look like in the new movie!

How appalingly grotesque. I foresee an immediate flop.

Aww. April won't scream in terror when she saw them the first time; she'll scream out of fuzziness and excitement.
