Yeah I googled the history of bluetooth too before I posted here.
According to http://www.bluetooth.com/Pages/Histo...Bluetooth.aspx, the first digital camera was made in 2002.

just a slight mistake, when the turtles are in the elevator, you can see the light on the panel with all the floor buttons going up. well while theyre rapping or whatever, the light can be seen as only about halfway up the building, going up at a consistent pace. then it cuts to the screen showing the floors, it says 54, then the turtles run out on the roof and the lights on the top floor. they went through about 20 floors really fast.

not at issue, just something i caught

Not sure if so much a mistake, but they chopped the elevator scene down to a brief piece. I had taken screen caps of it a bit ago through via various trailers that had different parts of the elevator scene and put them in order according to the floor lights on the panel. They cut out a lot of it..

The song that the Turtles listen to as kids before they play that bucket game is a recent song. Since this is a flashback it makes no sense.

That song came out in 2005. So 9 years ago, if they're 15 now they'd be AT THE OLDEST 6 years old in that scene, which fits.

The banquet scene shows how adored he is. Vague but is established.

i haven't seen the film....but equating mexico's corruption to a post 9/11 new york doesn't work in the slightest....even within the suspension of disbelief required for a movie. New York Police Dept is in a tizzy and calling in the FBI and CIA to help locate some punks who hung up bleached American flags.

it's possible that an explanation to how Sack's corruption is left unchecked and not scrutinized by homeland security is lying on the cutting room floor with half of the movie we know exists, but from what i gather is presented, it's weak.

Really? Oh, I thought it was a new song...what song is it, do you know?

[Werecat]

When Eric Sachs referred to the turtles being common Box turtles when there appearance is a red eared slider.

He's a rat, rats have large, sensitive ears that pick up on the slightest of sounds. In this case, the beeping of a bomb timer.

The turtles can tie up an army of gun wielding foot soldiers with out being seen but they can't navigate a sewer tunnel with out getting stuck and then fart jokes....
The turtles are over 6 feet tall, they have human facial features, lips nostrils and they are too muscularly large and for the most part ugly.
They are bullet proof at least their shells I didn't notice if any bounced off their skin must have been luck I suppose.
They didn't really use any ninja moves that I can recall just over powering guys.
The only thing that really had any effect on them were the stun gun or for some reason they were not as fast as Shredder I guess it is being so big and shredders suit must give him super strength as he can jump massive heights and distances.
Shredders armour and the fact that he can shoot knives out that can knock over massive steel structures.
The turtles are strong enough to hold up said steel structures and it was the same thing from Amazing Spiderman as I recall a tower and a gas being released also Batman Begins gas was going to be released to the hero(s) have to save the day. Both movies seemed to rip on the villians ideas from Batman Begins.
Raph Jumped through the side of the van instead of using the door I thought the turtles would have regard for others property.
Raph had a cracked or possibly fractured shell yet he was still able to be thrown into a Hummer hitting his shell this makes me think they edited the scenes out of order.
It took to long to get the Turtles on screen I was liking the fact that they waited to build suspense but it was around 15 minutes in before I believe we saw them.
Raph couldn't break the glass of the cells they were in but a little adrenalyn and they can bust out of their restrains and jump through like regular glass.
Don's glasses and whatever technology he has and stuff all over him was way to much we know hes supposed to be the nerd or a geek they way over did it.
Giant mountain they were coming down had a sewer that was apparently 2.5 miles away from down town NYC where the battle with the shredder had to take place... correct me if I am wrong but isn't Manhattan an island and I don't see any massive mountains or cliffs that close to NYC it just didn't seem logical unless I missed something.
It didn't seem right that Splinter could fight the Shredder and seem as though he wasn't trying or to taunting him.
Splinter was able to learn ninjitsu out of a book in the sewer and then teach the turtles. I like the original origin that makes it seem even more odd with the fight against shredder.
It seemed odd and very coincidental that April knew the turtles and saved them etc but I guess I didn't mind that so much as its a nod to IDW I'd still prefer the original origin.

I may be in a minority but I'd like to see something of a hybrid of a TMNT movie more based on the comics in either a similar style to Sin City or 300. Issues 1-3 for the first film possibly then they could do the Space/Fugitoid story for a third Return to NY.

I found this on another thread that points out a lot of mistakes

[Shark_Blade]

Shredder leaving Raph despite saying earlier that another glass cage is ready for him.

I just assume that Sacks called him, saying everything is ready for him to launch the virus. He just left immediately, probably leaving Raph's weakened body for the scientists to sort it out themselves.

[FrankRightNow]

Na one of the foot told shredder he was dead. So he just left him
