Incredible.

The pin is out and for some reason, the grenade won't go off and put us all out of our friggin' misery.

Also, Andre needs to up his meds... he laughs WAY too much. I'm getting a real Mark Hamill Joker vibe from him...

Andre doesn't laugh nearly enough.

I bet Kraang has nostrils.

Andre is great entertainer, watching him is always fun and I don't doubt that he's really hyped for his childhood characters finally being in a movie he can't really negative when Stephen Amell publicly dedicates the trailer to him.

Even so he still picked out that Wile Coyote-esque splat as being a problem. If even one of the biggest advocates for comedic driven TMNT fare raises an eyebrow at something like that you know things have gone too far.

Likewise another popular youtuber Jeremy Jahns has singled out the splat as a being way too silly as well as commenting on the overall cartoon-y vibe of the cgi.

I think it's starting to become pretty clear that when the dust settles and people get over the hype of having the 80s show characters in live action the ultra cartoon tone was the wrong way to go.

Yep. People are excited for other reasons.

Andre trashed the last movie in several different videos. He made a video talking about the first trailer we got in December. He praised it but at the same time voiced his concerns. Stephen Amell saw this video and talked about it on his Facebook page. Amell became a fan in the process which is why he dedicated the super bowl spot to him. Andre has no problem being negative when necessary. I doubt he would let this stop him if he actually felt that way.

Yeah, they like swatting at shiny keys. Some people are just easily amused.

My favorites are the ones saying "It looks bad, sure, but I don't care." but they'll get mad if you point out that means they have zero standards. That's exactly what their statement means. "Sure it looks stupid, but..." But nothing. You're flat-out admitting that it doesn't take much to impress you, which is nothing to go around bragging about.

Krang and all that other sh*t COULD be exciting... IF the movie was going to be any good. But it's not. So at best you have some cool ideas in a sh*t movie. Which is what Batman & Robin was; that's the single kindest thing anyone could say about that piece of garbage, "It had some good ideas, and if everything was done completely different then maybe it could have been good. All they'd have to do, is nothing they actually did."

I mean... do these same people also like "Mortal Kombat: Annihilation", or "X-Men 3", or "Spider-Man 3"? "Rise of the Silver Surfer"? Because those were also movies that could have been good, but were very much Not Good, but they had stuff they almost did right. It's just like this movie: "Hey look, it's (Familiar Character/Concept, except done rather poorly)! I mean, it's totally different, and some of this is very stupid, but just the fact they EXIST...!" How is that enough? "It's great! It's like they ALMOST tried!" Yeah, sure... but what if they DID try? What if they made a Good Movie with those ideas, instead of just putting Good Ideas in a sh*t movie?

Wouldn't that be better? Because that's all I'm waiting for. I can't get excited over bad execution of ideas that have potential, which is all this project is. In the hands of almost anyone else, it could be amazing. That's the tragedy.

The lore lost one of its biggest catalysts and emotional centers.

For boner jokes and poor Looney Tunes humor.

I hope we hear the cartoon slide whistle noise when Raph plummets into the windshield of the plane. I hope that's the last shot of the movie, actually. Then Porky Pig can bust through a big f***ing bass drum and say "Bdee-bdee-bdee-That's ALL, folks!" and then they bring up the lights.

That's what these f***ing people deserve.

Technogeek29 · 02-08-2016, 10:22 PM

Hey if you're gonna rip off Looney Toons at least rip off the A material.

No, no. It's gotta be Bebop. He's the Porky Pig in these movies.

~~Leo656~~ · 02-08-2016, 10:31 PM

Good call, Garth.

Frakkin' genius.

I'm thinking Parody (Anti-)Fan Film, gang. Let's do this sh*t.

They actually inserted whistles and goofy cartoon sounds in the German release of the 1990 movie.
