TMNT 2014: Fave little moments

Mine...

- Graphic novel-style art of a civilian being put face-first through a window & one of the Turtles staring at the corpse in horror.

- Saki's neck crack.

- The homage shot of them falling with the moon above them.

- "There's someone important we wanna introduce you to, but FURST." (best pronunciation of the word "first" ever).

- Splinter tucking the baby turtles into bed. Can't imagine many not finding this cute.

- Donnie's first time threatening someone "Come alone. Or... you will be punished.. and stuff."

- Splinter going berserk on some Foot Soldiers.

- Leo's panicked "DONNIE" when the tazers hit him.

- Brian Tyler's switch in score when the Turtles surrender their weapons.

- 'Careless Whisper'.

- Raph appearing from the back of the truck. This made everyone jump in the theater & then laugh straight after.

- "Say that again. I wanna hear your voice." Fitchner cracks me up. Reminds me of his sleazy character from 'Go'.

- "Are you saying there's-A CLIFFFFFFFFFFFFFF".

- Cowabunga being used like Yippee-ki-yay.

- Raph's shy grin.


(this is not an invitation to slag off the movie. majority of the threads are dedicated to that as it is).

When Mikey made the "boom- mind blown" reaction at the end, I just love seeing Leo's surprised expression and you can see as his eyes change to light color during that moment.



You can see better in HD.

Splinter kicking ass

The comic style opening with the awesome score

the Elevator Mc Mikey Scene

I'm a snapping turtle fool

the whole line were ninja's were mutants technically were turtles were also teenagers doesn't mean we can't have adult conversations.

Also its nice to finally have some POSITIVE topics about this movie.

You have an entire invitation-only discussion group about it.

You're not being oppressed over there, Kunta Kinte. Stop acting like you are.

To topic: I like the general idea of what Raph's speech was supposed to convey, but they should have put more in the movie itself to build to it.

I really liked the moment where Leo screamed "dad!" when Splinter was essentially defeated. That had some weight to it.

Shredder mocking Splinter when he referred himself as the father of the turtles, and of course "dining on turtle soup"

I also liked that Shredder spoke a lot of Japanese, primarily out of the suit, but it was nice.

"Ram the gate!"

"Ram the gate? This is Channel Six property!"

One of the few times I found Vernon funny, his delivery was pretty good.

Little stuff works since it's a collection of it that makes up a lot of what I do like (but be warned it's also fave Turtle heavy) and some of this is prob going to be really subtle details some may overlook...


Leo still keeping guard when we first see them on the roof and how they freeze when the camera flashes.

When April first meets Leo. Just feels like, "B*tch you just met the leader, and you potentially pose a serious threat to his family - you best just ****ing run the hell out of there." lol

That deliberate slow blink when Leo steps toward April after she quietly repeats his name. Mocap is so awesome for getting subtle important body language. Deeefinitely asserting his superiority with that and a clear unspoken "EXCUSE you?" at April.

"I only saw Batman once."

"Dad!"

Can't remember if the snarly "Cowabunga" from Raph was in the film or only in trailers... suspect maybe only trailer. Not big on this Raph but liked that.

When Raph and Vern meet.

When they're running high on adrenalin and fall splat to the lower floor.

Foggy memory, but Leo's little jump when they're running out of that place. Amusing to me because the Leo in the first movies tends be a little 'jumpy' as well, if you will.

Donnie being the one to go help unconscious Leo (snow scene) and the "badass" line.

After sneaking back home and hanging their weapons up, when Raph pushes Leo's face away....the momentary look Leo gives toward Raph. Poor guy's so insulted. lol

Shushing contest.

When Mikey starts up in the elevator and Leo looks at him a bit perplexed. And then when he tries so hard to remain serious...

Baby Turtles of course... dear god.

Sh*t dude, your list is even better than mine Leo definitely had the best subtle moments. Yeah that slow-blink in particular as the others turn to her silent like "....why did you just say his name....?". Love little moments like that.

There's a moment where Donatello hits a dude with his bo and it kind of flips in the air in the opposite direction and he catches it. That was pretty cool.

- Saki. The baldness reminded me of Nick Shredder. He was a total bad-ass. The CGI Shredder really took a lot away from him cause he was so fake it really could have been anybody under there. Really wish they kept Saki throughout the movie.

- scene of Shredder about to slice down on Leo (I think) and Raph blocking the shot

- elevator scene

- April Fox ass shot. Yeah, sorry, but um... yeah.

- 'stupid rich' and 'drain them of their blood, even if they die' cause.... so horribly bad it's good.

lmao oh come now, I mentioned I liked stuff like the elevator scene and Saki's portrayal (and Megan's bum) several times already. It's just everything else I hated.

The guy who played Saki Was perfect i really hope they build on him and keep him it would be epic

That the main thing that i love so much about this movie is the Actors and the characters they play I love all the turtle and all the little things about them. I loved Splinter, I loved Saki and shredder when we saw them
