Michael Bay's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

[beeshaw]

Who doesn't love a good explosion against a sunset in slow-mo while a lovely buxom lady stares at it with mouth agape and eyes wide?? And yes, I love a good lens flare as well.

 

[meanstreak]

Though not my thing, it is what it is. I think the kids will love it.

Yep, this movie is most likely going to dominate at the theaters this summer. Could even make more than Cap, XMen, Spidey and Guardians of the Galaxy

 

[Snake Plissken]

Yet another very generic cluster **** film from Bay.

 

[beeshaw]

And yet I can't ****ing wait...

Yep. You'd think the man would be getting smarter and better over the years...

yep...as crappy this might be...kids are going to eat it up...TMNT is hot property in the Retail world (especially during the Holiday)

Hopefully we'll get to see characters like Casey Jones,Rock Steady,Be-bop,Leather head,Ace Duck,General Traag,Baxter Stockman,Rat King etc in the inevitable Sequel

Why in the world would you think that? He made millions and millions of dollars resting on his laurels with those Transformers movies, which are mediocre at best. In order to improve, someone has to have some reason to improve, right?

He doesn't understand the concept of trial and error, he just continues to do things one way over and over... and still makes boat loads of money

 

[guyverfan]

Maybe he's related to Uwe Boll.

Other than explosions, sunsets, racism, homophobia, and a porn level fetish of the US military, what is the Bay aesthetic?

 

[mmmmBrains]

Sigh....

The turtles are ruined for me. I wish I was 8 again, I would really be into this.

Kids love all that these days hence why the current generation of kids are they way they are now. A 5 year old child will see April using an ipad to take a selfie with a turtle and demand their parents buy them one without saying please or thank you.

Post of the year.

So I guess they threw landing light on your feet from the ninja manual in favour of slamming into a brick wall and crushing it.

Well, if any good comes from this movie, hopefully it will be in the form of the remastered blu ray transfers of the original film instead of just copying the DVD files onto blu ray.

I know. Maybe I'm just that naive to think that he would use those $ to create something good for exchange.

This would be funny if it weren't so pathetically true.

 

[a-dev]

Ground this in reality I say. Ground it. Must ground it. Yeah. Definitely ground it. Ground it in reality. Ground everything in reality.

In seriousness, my affection for the Turtles didn't follow me into adulthood so I'm fairly indifferent about this.

 

[BuGz]

I like Leonardo. But Michelangelo just looks bad. Ah I dunno.
