and yours are legitimate reasons, because the directors, the designs, and the cast all have a major impact on the final product...

but the idiots being dismissive because of hair color, frustrate the crap outta me.

All highly praised Very popular, never bashed TMNT redesigns. Ones that are very similar to what we got. And yet People talk so much Crap about the one we got
"Oh mikey looks like Shrek" Then the new trailer comes out And he looks fine No issue some even say he look Bad ass, But now they have to nit pick Donnie, Because hes making a face? Of course hes not going to look like that the whole time Obviously

Do you really see poutty "Jar Jar" lips in those photos NO because hes not making the same face
Not seeing your point. It's a legitimate question. And just because other artist have done freelance work where they've done similar things doesn't change what I may think about their designs. I do want to know what the hell they were thinking. I find the designs terrible but I also understand there's a creative process to this so I'm pretty curious as to why they went left instead of right.

Elaborate how I love to hate. And on samxsteal's point because I don't get it, all I'm seeing is TMNT art talking about what a few people personally think looks cool not why it's wrong for me to wonder what the hell they were thinking when they went with those designs.

And if anyone posts multiple pics can they PLEASE use spoiler tags so they don't take up so much space.

I forgot to mention this before when some where ranking on Alan for not ever talking about his character and how he relates to Raphael. Well I remember awhile ago that he actually did talk about his role a little bit. Is isn't much but : http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j...aBY6CtuBUv-OQg

I just wants to take a moment to say (write) how great Alan seems under that interview, he is charming, funny, keeps the conversation flowing nicely and overall very charming.

I really hope he is as charismatic on-screen. I've only see him (as far as I know) as Aquaman in Smallville and that Champion guy in the second Hunger Games, and I wasn't really taken away by his performance.

And his smile, damn. He could melt a snowman with it.

She wasn't really a red-head in the Fred Wolf series. I always considered it more brown than red.

And now you've angered my friend in another state who hasn't even read your post. You used THAT word that IS NOT a word.

(I like to respond with "it could become a word, irregardless of your opinion on it.")

Who was the person screaming questions from the back? Was it the producer of that show that was a fan and couldn't hold it in?

i dont think its *just* about "lis-sync", but, as he mentioned more than once, about *performance*. it's about getting the expressions and nuances and facial ticks and subtle movements that are really hard to pull off on a non-mo-capped cgi creation. that helps it not fall into the realm of cg "cartoon" or uncanny valley. it really does make sense. granted, it didnt take me too long to get used to these designs, and now i think they're fine.

the only real hanging dismay i have about this is megan fox as april, but even then, im kinda over all the drama. i'm just stoked to kick back with a bucket of popcorn, wearing my colored bandana 3d glasses in august and enjoy the tmnt on the big screen again!

Of course Alan Ritchson is gonna defend the movie. I mean he's never gonna say "Yeah the movie I'm currently a part of suck eggs lololo"?

He'll never find work in Hollywood again if he does that.

He's not a complete idiot like Shia LeBouf.

They're more than likely going to spend most of the second act captured, they're probably little more than extended cameos...
