Is it just me, or is any one else baffled that they didn't show up in their respective colors? Just seems like it would be a no brainer, if not at least a marketing idea

Well...A Laird was there.
Found this image on Emily Laird's (Peter's Daughter) Facebook:


EDIT: Peter is tagged...he MIGHT just be there. MIGHT.

[TMNT is cooler than MOTU]

Wow, Pete is really man-pretty.

No word on whether she made the final cut though.

She's in it. Though I wouldn't call her a best friend.

Spoiler:

All she basically does is stare at April and think she's crazy. Three scenes at most.

Jeremy's tie looked red at first, second look yea that could be purple. Anyone else think it would've been funny if they showed in their respective colors via dumb n dumber style tuxes w their eye masks? Just thought would've been funny and would of given the actual mo cap actors more attention, kind of annoyed at how Meagan and Will are the faces and voices of 99% of the promoting. Just another thought, what if they showed up in late 80s style kids pajamas, in adult sizes obviously. The ones that were almost like a Halloween costume. I used to have those, just thought that would've been funny as h*ll

With this pic, I can see which one of the two is up all night with the new infant!

Variety interviewed some of the cast and crew at the red carpet.

Pete Ploszek appears to hold no grudges against Knoxville replacing his voice in the film.

“I like to think with the two of us, we built the best Leo we could,” said Ploszek.

And here is what Libesman had to say about Fox, Arnett, and his direction.

Director Jonathan Liebesman said Arnett was a master comedian and described Fox as very brave and outspoken. “I’ve never seen a movie inspire so much talk back,” said Liebesman.

The director said that they used Fox’s outspoken nature in the character of April O’Neil. “That’s how she needed to be and I think she brought a hell of a lot of herself to that role and we benefited from it.”

A native of South Africa, Liebesman said his first memory of “TMNT” revolved around pizza. “Just the idea of eating pizza to me was a very American thing and we started eating a lot of pizza at school.” He hopes his fondness for the Turtles is reflected in the filmmaking. “I’m a fan first and foremost. I felt like what was important to fans was important to me. I wanted the cowabungas, the pizza, the characters to be exactly who they were,” he told Variety.

There's more quotes from Fisher, Arnett, and Howard in the link below.

So Bay has a purple tie. Does that mean Donny is his favorite?

[ranger_scout]

I'll go ahead and post these quotes.

The turtle actors wore a unitard and shell on their backs, as well as face cameras and ping-pong balls for eyes. Noel Fisher, who plays Michelangelo, said talking with the surfer-dude dialect was fun. “I didn’t go full surfer dude with it, but I did want to add little bit of dude because, come on, he’s Mikey.”

It's nice to pay a little tribute to the past and current Michelangelo voice actors like Townsend Coleman, Robbie Rist, and Greg Cipes, who all brought that side to the chracter.

Jeremy Howard said that Donatello is the smart one of the group. “We were joking the other day, if someone had to pay the bills it’s gotta be Donatello. No one else is going to think about it,” he said. “Jonathan Liebesman was pushing me to be nerdier. Of course I wanted to bust out some dudes and cowabungas, but that was more Noel’s wheelhouse.”

Raphael gets to say it on his own in the movie too. Hopefully, Leonardo and Donatello will at least say with them together as a group.

Star Will Arnett said growing up it was his little brother who was more of a fan of the turtles. “I was like 18 and I was probably more worried about girls or something.”

But now the dad of two said he’s fully immersed in Turtle. “It kind of fell out of my consciousness, but a few months before I met with these guys about the movie my kids got super into the Nickelodeon show. So when I went to meet with them I was totally down. I’ve seen so many episodes of them and I was like, ‘Yea, the turtles, yea this makes sense to me’ and I was weirdly a fan.”

Arnett plays opposite Megan Fox as cameraman Vern Fenwick. The always funny comedian couldn’t leave the jokes alone when asked if he brought himself into the character.

“I left Will Arnett on the cutting room floor. No, this character looks so much like me physically…” he joked.

Indeed.

This is pretty cool.
