Well you know what they say, "Write what you know." I'm sure it extends to produce/direct what you know, and Bay knows Douche-bros.

Explains a lot, dunnit.

And since this is an April thread... Seems it - or more accurately, "don't write what you don't know" - also applies to female characters specifically. Blank stares (though I guess that can be attributed to Fox as coming naturally), just smiling and looking clueless when Mikey is making uncomfortable comments, other things this particular film is less guilty of but others are from the same makers... Hallow shell female characters? Know little about women.

Ah, I thought Marvel was referring to some of the Rule 34 out there!

  1. Wasn't the movie already kind of an April movie?
  2. What would April O'Neil the movie even be based on? That one time she discovered that she was a magic drawing or Nickelodeon's revision of her as an alien psychic? Pretty much anything remerkable done with April has been met with hostility, people seem to prefer her when the remarkable things happen around as opposed to it happening to her.
  3. Even if it was a good idea, would you really want Platinum Dunes to make it?

Maybe in ten years or so when there is source material to work from that isn't boring or unpopular, and when another production company has the rights to make TMNT movies.

Uh, penny, that was Amaranthus, not me. I didn't even enter the thread until after you commented about Plastron beating you to it.

As long as you're in the future, can you bring me back a newspaper with tomorrow's race results? I want to place a few bets.....

Leo, I can tell you this much - as long as you're an asshole in the present, you never need to worry about becoming one in the future.

Nah, just messin' with ya dude - you know I love you like a redneck loves his attractive female second cousin (who's only missing three of her original teeth).

Seriously though:

I heard they made a Hots Shots 2 but it was just a 7-hour gay porno they shot at Tom's place over a long weekend.

Blank stares are actually perfectly realistic acting in this case.
A guy who looks like Shrek (literally!) and isn't either a multi-gabazillionaire or famous rappa hits on a pretty girl.... what else does he expect?

Well then.





*cough* Anyway. We probably shouldn't give the film makers ideas, goodness knows they only know how to relate to their human characters; a 120 min (because you know they'd give her a longer film than the Turtles) backstory on April would be so easy for them to make.
