I never heard of The Raid. Do you have any clips on the interney you could post? Never caring much for the black and white comics I don't want "face crushing violence" but not Power Ranger choreographed fights either. Its good to see its not being shelved but looked at more carefully.

That's dumb. Why would they use Indonesian styles?

Here's a clip from The Raid, was lucky enough to see it, a very well done action picture and wonderfully choreographed fight sequences:

I'd put it in here but for some reason embedding's not working right for me:

Looks pretty good to me, but I bet there won't be as much blood.

Hmmm....I like the cherography and set up of the fight though no so much the turtles killing. I think it could be worked to suit the script quite well though.

It's gonna be interesting seeing that style adapted to Japanese weapons, but I know it can be done. It's pretty neat how more practical styles are being given a little bit of flash and then being used in movies nowadays. I'm also glad that this new Turtles film won't overly rely on Taekwondo like the old ones did.

Interesting. I can't say that I'm familiar with either movie, but the overall positive reaction I've seen to this news has me thrilled. I'll have to check out at least one of these movies sometime.
