Wish we could get new writers and producers too.

Hopefully the Turtles get nose jobs in the sequel too.

That's good, I like it when sequels are done by different directors.

I never saw Earth to Echo, Its a found footage movie, But I heard it was good.

Dave Green in talks to direct TMNT 2

I have no idea if this is good or bad... but I hope it's at least someone who has paid attention and leave ego at the door (but packs lots of common sense in his suitcase).

[NinjaPug]

Sounds like another 'yes man' that will do whatever Fuller and Form want.

It's always great to go from a director who is fairly inexperienced to a director who is completely inexperienced. YEA!!!

Here's an interesting quote from this article.

Jonathan Liebesman directed this summer’s “Turtles” pic, which ended up grossing $464 million worldwide, but Paramount wanted to take a new approach and decided to open the directing search.

He's cheap and easy to control. Exactly what Platinum Dunes wants.

Hooo boy... um. So.

Well Mr. Green, if you do end up taking this on - dammit man, seek to make it an epic win as a director and for TMNT. One of those surprise wins the industry and critics end up praising. Smack away any hands that want to be ridiculous.

I always like it when you have an up and coming director, doing a big budget comic book movie, which usually surprises everyone on how well they turn out.

Earth to Echo (which I think may have opened opposite TMNT) was pretty well received so I'll def give him the benefit of the doubt. Besides at one point every director had no or very little experience. Doesn't mean they should be counted out.

Yeah, These new directors usually turn out to do very well, when they are given a huge property, Look at Brian Singer, His career took off when he did the X-Men movies.

Very cautiously hoping so. A relative unknown - be it a director, an author, actor, or whoever - could turn out to do brilliantly. *fingers crossed* (You too, Turtles... you don't have many but you have enough to cross.)

Granted it's still in talks, but I just hope whoever they go with has listened.
