You your self Claim to be the "I am the Master of the Search Function, tremble by my Awesome power!"
Why do they add the OID at the end Of the Classificasion of human races ????

Its not racist i can tell you that
There are lots of things in encyclopedias, including outmoded anthropological terms coined during a time of great western colonial expansion. If any terms were going to be racist, it would be the three "races" as defined by early western anthropologists.

I mean...just by definition.

As for the suffix -oid, from the Greek -oeidēs which means resemblance. Humanoid means resembling human.

The TMNT are humanoid turtles.

But these Words them selves are not racist Unless being used as a means to show and define one as being superior to the other That all i mean

I was not using them to mean one is better then the other on as a means I was spouted as a racist for saying black So i found the Scientific term for each race i was using in reference Not to be racist but to use the least subjective term i thought at the time Guess i was wrong

I wasn't meaning any harm in any of what i was saying just that If people were just people regardless it would not matter race of the character who played what ever character, really it should be Anyone can play anyone.

Just Like thor Being change to a Woman Is going to be freaking Amazing look awesome so far

People are people everyone should be equal thats that, only people making it hard are those who wont let it happen

Ah new New Jerseyan, well welcome to the east. Yup, have Wawa, but not often I've gone to it.


As for the movie... If they are STILL finishing up... geezus. I dunno, I'm good under pressure but I think even at that point the stress would be close to killing me. lol

When and in what way do they distribute movies to theaters now if it's cutting this close?? Is it sent out digitally?

The context in which the words were coined and used WAS racist, and when you use them in ignorance of that context you leave yourself open to being counted among that context, and called out on it.

You might not be racist, but the words you resurrected to make your anti-racist point are steeped in racism. Heck, they were made to codify and reinforce supremacy of third over the other two.

It's great that you believe that everyone should be equal, I commend you for that. We don't become equal by forgetting the past, and we don't become equal by ignoring the life experiences of others.

Film Now and day is Digital They can send Files Over Secure transfer Sites/programs
Maybe via HD SD drive sent via Mail depending on company and theaters

But movie come down to the wire weeks if not days before release,

Just like and Asian Playing a Character whom is normally African american is not racist
Or an Asian Playing Latino, Or Latino a African American, or Any combination
uh....no. It was Jester quoting your offensive use of "oid" terms that I'm referring to.
And yes, that is racist

Oh will everyone shut the hell up about racism already. This is a tmnt forum. Who the hell cares. Leave all your prejudices and bigotry at the door.

He wouldn't be named "Erik Sachs" unless he becomes Shredder at some point. Oroku Saki probably gets killed in that explosion on the rooftop, and then Sachs becomes Shredder at the end of the movie. Make no mistake, Sachs IS the main villain in this. Saki will basically be the Darth Maul of the movie, while Sachs will be the Emperor. It wouldn't surprise me if Sachs turns out to be Krang as well.

So no more "white washed" Shredder, or whatever the hell some people ranted before.
I was saying this from the beginning.

I wonder if it was fan response that drove their decision to reveal it early, but hey, whatever, Im seeing this film, they already have my vote.
Same here. Now, they are just ruining the surprise.

Honestly the identity of the Shredder shouldn't even be a surprise or a mystery. It something that should be a given. If they have punking us all along then they only have themselves to blame for meltdowns.

Then again it's possible this is all a double bluff and that it really is Sachs in the armor. It seems even one of this movies biggest boosters and one that usually says we should believe everything they say seems to think Sachs will wear the armor.

Under normal circumstances something like this might actually make me stop and think "hmm maybe this movie wont be complete crap after all" but they've deceived us so many times I'm not taking for granted anything. For all we know that bald guy is not Oroku Saki but Mr Braunze.

As for revealing that tidbit early, personally I've speculated that part of it was a mistake on their own part to put that hard to see "shadowy figure" in that one trailer, not even considering that fans are going to grab a screenshot, take it to Photoshop and bring out the actual image. Oops. lol

Yeah, fans excited to anything can do amazing things now since the internet has been available. I remember just a quick shot of Scarlet and Chris on set for The Winter Soldier, and someone blew up the scene and discovered she was wearing a necklace with an arrow in it, presumably a present from Hawkeye.

I think the Shadowy figure is an Oroku Saki zombie, reanimated using worms, and that after the TMNT defeat him, Sachs (who is actually Ch'rell) will put on the armor. I could be off by a long shot, though.
