No offense taken.
I wonder whether the next film will be darker or lighter in tone. Since the 2018 show will be lighter than the Nick show, which was darker than the PD movies, I wonder if that will have any bearing on what the next movie will be like. Will they try to gain a wider audience by making a tmnt film for adults while kids enjoy the Rise show? |

If kids back in 1990 loved the first tmnt film,I see no reason why they wouldn't like a darker tmnt film in todays age of gritty reboots.
I have a feeling that if Rise suddenly becomes a big hit and brings on the second turtlemania, that will give the creators of the film more liberty over the next film since the tmnt brand would generate good profit anyway. On the other hand, if the show only performs average, then Nick will play it safe and make the next movie as light as the show by listening to what the charts say about the latest trends and their profit potential. |

At first, the Viacom purchase of the property and the announcement of a new movie looked very promising, so no point in chastising Andrew for being hopeful these movies would turn out good. I also initially believed that |

I tend to think there's been a diminishing returns with the shows. The success of the Fred Wolf show era speaks for itself, the 4kids show can seem like the awkward, overlooked middle child but for two years in a row it's toys where the best selling and it had a slew of mediocre but commercially successful video games, the Nicktoon can seem a big deal with being broadcast in the nerd media era and having prime time specials and all but frankly it seems less of a hit with it's intended audience of kids the '03 show which in turn was clearly much less of a hit than the '87 show. Of course if Rise does become a success then it's 50/50 whether they would try and replicate the show's formula in a theatrical movie or treat TV and movies as separate entities for very different audiences. This all assume that even with a hit show a movie would be on the cards, frankly after Out of the Shadows I still think pitching a new TMNT movie to a studio would be an uphill battle.

I think they are mainly focusing on kids, at the near exclusion of the adults. I'd be surprised if they came out with a more 'grownup' movie, since the (unfortunate) mentality is that these movies are merely a vehicle to sell toys. Having a more mature and darker TMNT might go against that idea.
The only way I could see someone challenging this, is if some smaller indie director decides to make some darker TMNT movies and these prove to be good (showing there is a potential audience for this stuff) or that the child market (or toy market) is no longer profitable. Otherwise they will continue to cater to children since studios tend to be risk adverse now, and they want to make certain bank. |

I'm always sceptical of modern movies and I kind of hate to be right when the stuff I like turns out the way it does.

How is it with the rights? If a new movie would happen', could it be made by an other studio as Platinum Dunes? Or can Viacom lend it to other studios too?
What are the possibilities?

Another studio could do it, but it would still be a Paramount production, as far as I know.

I like the PD movies well enough for what they are, not great cinema but there's enough there for me to like.
I'm still incredibly bitter by the sale to Viacom, remember the movie Laird was promising us? Sure it could've been all a lie but it did seem like it was going to happen, and all of that got scrapped and we got these movies instead, now that is the salt on the wound more than the movie themselves. |

You can't tell me you weren't excited when we were being promised a dark mirage like movie with Baxter as the villian and using real suits with CG like where the wild things are.
Sure it might've not been all it was promised but at least the potential was there. All of that was scrapped for alien turtles and white shredder as the new plan for the movie after the sale. |

Maybe Tarantino can do this after Star Trek XIV.

And break his 10-movies-rule? I'm not sure of that...
I still wish a Malick-directed adaptation of Soul Winter PS.: or Fincher doing City at War?
