I forgot to mention. I think part of the reason they think they could get away with this is because of the new Nick Toon designs. Remember when the new show's designs were revealed, people were up in arms over them? When the show finally debut, people loved the show, and the designs grew on them. I mean, I still hate the gap in Donny's teeth, but the quality of the show lets me overlook it for the most part.

They think their movie is so awesome that when people finally see it, they'll love it so much and ignore the bad designs. Which is probably NOT going to happen. This movie will suck the big one.

People only hated the Nick designs because we were shown early CG footage that wasn't finalized and looked like an early PS2 game at first.

Obviously that was beta footage as the designs looked much better.

That may be true, to a point TerranigmaFreak, but the re-designs for the Nick show are nowhere near as drastic as the movie's.

You forgot the finalized designs and the outcry from the general public. The leaked designs had backlash here, but the big noise was made when the finalized designs came out.

problems with the concept of superman returns aside the only real change in the costume was the material used the and the S belt buckle.
same thing with man of steel. it's the traditional suit with out the red trunks and yellow belt. its not reinventing the wheel supes just doesn't wear his underwear on the outside anymore.
I didn't have much of a problem with the xmen wearing black not because their usual costumes would look cheesy but because it makes sense with the being a team. everybody wearing different colors with different designs and varying styles would probably look weird when standing next to each other. which kind of reminds me of something now that I think about it
I agree with the batman and superman part. They continue to change and evolve in the comics they come from. It's been years since batman wore the yellow oval except for his short stint in batman inc before the reboot... So why would Nolan use the old outdated design? Superman also stopped wearing the red tights after the reboot so why not use it in the modern movie? At least the suit wasn't armor used like in the comics.

The turtles have always looked relatively the same in popular media. The only major change recently has been those bandage wraps they added. The movie went overboard with new designs. They're not that bad but they look better on a DA pic than in the movie. Plus mikey is the only one dressed in casual clothes had can chill in. The others just look too silly if they're gonna wear that all the tine. And if that is their 'suit up' look can someone tell mikey that surfer gear isn't exactly armor?

Casuals count too. And calling Youtubers 'scum' seem kinda too far.

I'm talking about the people who talk about how horrible the Nick Turtles look with literally the dumbest reasons I've ever seen.

People can be entitled to their opinion... besides their voices are so insignificant they can't really do anything to the show, so who cares what they think?

Over 100 votes, and this poll remains negligibly close. Worthless poll is worthless. You've all failed me.

I personally don't care for them. Especially Mikey's weird shorts? Also their lips kinda freak me out. But all in all it could be worse.
