Dude, relax always so high-strung.

Also, I don't wanna annoy you IndigoErth, but it seems Knoxville is back (and Shalhoub). A few sites are reporting it & they were added on IMDb the same time as eight other smaller cast members. Could mean nothing at this point, but wouldn't suprise me.

I'm taking it with a grain of salt until Variety confirms it.

Still not a fan of the look on the Foot, but at least it's a step in the right-ish direction. But BrianTtee looks very nice.

Tee looks awesome, playing clearly a different Shredder altogether. The Foot look a little too G.I.Joe Retaliation.

I think if the leather/cloth part had a dark maroon color and if they included the bug eyes the Foot is known for, it would have made a huge difference.

The red details of Brittany's outfit makes it pop a lot better, and her hair is gorgeous, but. I do miss Minae, she is a bit more distinct, and someone I think really fitted to play Karai.

Do like the collar section of both Brian's costume and the Foot costume.

I don't think I'm mentally equipped to deal with Shredder in tight leather pants, or the general silliness of armor-plated six-packs.

Seriously though - it all looks fairly ungainly, bland and clunky, and of course Karai has the requisite corset-esque brassiere and Bad Girl Boots. The Foot in the third photo has the plating on his armored six-pack buckling over, and the boot/knee/shin-guards are just waiting to get something caught in them as soon as he kicks someone (or tries to do a high kick in leather pants). Doesn't look like it'd be great for ease of movement and would be hotter than hell to fight in - but given the turd that were the last movie's designs, I suppose even armor made of empty eggshell cartons would look like an improvement by comparison. Once again though, for a movie that purports to have changed the Turtles to be more "realistic", this is another move on the part of the creative powers which fails to live up to the supposed mission statement.

From a costume design perspective, it's pretty boring - nothing that we haven't seen in plenty of other superhero and action movies already, certainly nothing distinctive, iconic or awe-inspiring. It's like they didn't know how to do Ninja, so they just combined one part Military, one part Biker and one part Generic Bad Guy, stirred lightly and left to simmer for 15 minutes.

Obviously he's going to have his own "Shredder costume," but I'm glad we're actually seeing Shredder outside of his megatron suit. Who knows, maybe we'll actually get a standard Shredder with ACTUAL ARMOR. Although the Foot don't really look like "The Foot," they look MUCH better than the last movie, now that they have ninja equipment.

The fact that they actually attempted to make a ninja is a giant improvement. So there somewhat trying at least more then they did before. I really hope there is more to that Shredder outfit and he wont be unmasked 90% of the movie before he dons that CGI Megatron monstrosity.

Oh you Yes there is. I said original comics, as in Mirage volume 1 which ended in August 1993. Also, Mirage fully ended in 2010. So there is an "after".

It looks like they retconned the entire first film.

Oh yeah. Definitely liking this. Shredder might just end up being the badass we all want, need, and freaking deserve.
