Un-needed movie character disposal - Page 2

William Fichtner for Rat King, please! I'm still attached to the idea of a fallen Sachs being forced to live like the Turtles - it might create an opening for him being redeemed, actually. But first he'll fight, utilizing the power of vermin to exact vengeance.

I'm thinking they could also introduce the Purple Dragons as a side arc (they choose to call it Pāpuru Tatsu to make it sound less like a gay bar - Mikey makes a crack about this to Hunter, only to be burned by being asked "Do you frequent such clubs?") Hmm, might be too silly though. I basically got this plot in my head of Mikey sneaking off to a skating compeition hosted by them and being caught. However, being captured and held prisoner has already been featured in the first film so it feels too repetitive.

It would cost a lot of dignity.

Yes, that's exactly who I was referencing. It's a good way to show what can happen when the hero does fail.

Why not make him Krang? Also who is Hunter?

Or unknowingly controlled by Krang (also controlling Shredder), and sometime in the third movie he's either destroyed or breaks free of Krang's control and becomes an unlikely ally.

Easy way to fix the origin with a 15 min clip. Open in feudal japan. Yoshi riding a horse to a home that is on fire. In front of the home you see 2 foot ninja confront Yoshi. He fights them off and kills them. You see 4 children and a woman yelling for help. Yoshi goes to burst the door open to rescue his family, and Saki is standing right behind him, "you have betrayed the foot for the last time Yoshi." A slash from Saki's sword, with a first person view of Yoshi looking up at Saki, before it blurs out. Then you see a first person view of Splinter waking up in terror, while the turtles come rushing in to see what is wrong. He says, " I remember our past my sons." Tells them a story of who they are and how he had to betray the foot to protect an alien race known as the utroms from being discovered. Ties up why the japanese influence, learning ninjutsu so quickly, and brings in the utroms. Sacks can become krang who stole some ooze from the good utroms. He and Shredder made a pact in feudal japan. Shredder can have planet earth to rule, and Krang has humans to build his technodrome to take over the galaxy. The turtles need to stop that from happening with a new friend, Casey Jones. Standing in the way are 2 new mutants Bebop and Rocksteady that sacks creates. Vern decides not to pick up Aprils phone calls and just live life. That is how I would play it.

I can't even begin to articulate how much I want a movie which really delves into this aspect.

As long as the movies are being made with little kids in mind, I doubt we'll see these dark themes contemplated on screen. If they were to actually focus with a more teenage crowd, then perhaps we will get it.

Assuming there's more than two in this lineup, just let them turn darker as time gone on maybe...?

They may have made it clear in this one that they're still teens, but they never did say an actual age. For all we know by the time the sequel comes around they've hit 20 and they can move on to 'more serious' film making... lol I wish. (Cuz any of that really makes sense when it's fictional, but whatever. lol)

Didn't April's camera or news clipping say something about 1999, and if we are to assume the movie in it's current setting is 2014, then that would make the Turtles roughly 15 years.
