Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

It will definitely make TMNT more respectable over the campy 90's films.

 

nvm

 

Loved it, the look of the turtles was so much more like the original Eastman and Laird comics. Excellent. And loved the Michaelangelo moment.

 

Apparently it was announced at Comic Con that the Japanese actor Mako would be doing the voice of Splinter. Unfortunately, Mako has passed away age 72 from cancer.

I don't know if I liked the trailer. CGI? Might have a better advantage due to the limitation on live-action films, but still, I don't know. This film could swing either way.

Growing up I was a HUGE turtle fan. I had everything.

 

I saw the trailer and wasnt overly impressed.
but you can bet my $11.75 that ill be there on opening weekend.
Im still anxious to see a true trailer with plot points, as opposed to this "teaser"

Personally, my favorite TMNT was the original 80's/90's cartoon.
I love the technidrome... what can i say.

Oh, i think volume 5 of the original series comes out late in August.
Raph is on the cover and the episode list is great!

Corporate Raiders from Dimension X
Pizza by the Shred
Super Bebop and Mighty Rocksteady
Beware the Lotus
Blast from the Past
Leatherhead: Terror of the Swamp
Michaelangelo's Birthday
Usagi Yojimbo
Case of the Hot Kimono
Usagi Come Home
The Making of Metalhead
Leatherhead Meets the Rat King

Usagi episodes are great, and I am really excited for Leatherhead, and one of my all time top ten Leatherhead meets the Rat King!!

 

Yups..

Awesome trailer. *bookmarks*

 

*shrugs* They made it for kids in mind. The lack of actors can have a disassociate affect on people, like it's not that much more real, but what would pre- and teens care?

 

well, kids'll want to see it($5.00/ticket), which means their parents will have to take em to it(6-10 dollars a ticket) and some younger teenagers'll want to see it (ditto as parents for ticket price) plus a pretty fair chunk of just plain nostalgic 20 to 30 year-olds..

 

Maybe. But honestly, going by visuals alone, the teaser looked much more mature than the old films ever did. I'm not saying anything about the stories or anything like that. But the costumes of the Turtles in the old movies just screamed kids to me. The CG has a more stylized, potentially adult feel to me.

I wish we were getting a reboot, scrapping the old movies and beginning again with the original comics, but I'll be interested in where they go with this "loose sequel" idea anyway. And I'm actually more interested because it's a CG flick; I feel as though they might be able to do a really good job capturing the feel of the comics. It goes both ways, of course; my fiancée lost all interest upon learning that it was going to be animated instead of live. But I'm going with cautiously hopeful at the moment.

So we have the new film coming out later this week, so that should be fun.

I now own the dvds of the old series. Volumes 1 to 6 and season 4. Right now I just got done watching Volume 3. I can't believe how many episodes there were. There's over 100 episodes in all of that and we're only in season 4. So much more to go. Of course the final season really blew in my opinion without Shredder and Krang. But that's not to say some earlier episodes were perfect. I've seen a couple so far that I've really disliked and a couple so far that I've really enjoyed.

It all rushes back to me from my memory. I love it.

 

I saw it on Saturday. I was expecting to be see a disappointing children's film, but I loved it. My only disappointment is that Michaelangelo and Donnatello were sidelined quite a bit, especially Don. The film really focuses on Leo and Raph.

The human characters looked quite cartoony (or "Mayariffic" as I like to say) but the Turtles looked great. There's this great scene when it's raining and as a Computer Animation student, I had a fangasm when I saw how fantastic Leonardo was during said rain scene. Won't go into any plot spoilers, apart to say I found no problems with it. Two thumbs up, will see it again soon.

 

I'm going to see it this Friday. I can't wait.

 

3 days...god i love bein' a TURTLE!!!!






cant wait....

 

Got my ticket reserved for 7:30 tomorrow night.

 

Woot, only a couple of hourse before I see it.


P.S.- I'm using Donatello colors now.

 

I'm hoping to see it next week. Unfortunately I'm working all weekend

 

will see this in a week or 2. once i have more money and time some friends were saying that it was ok.

 

Saw it. Loved it. Going again. Want more. And a sequel.

Best comic book movie SEQUEL ever!

 

I really enjoyed this movie. It brought back happy childhood memories of watching the cartoon as a kid.

 

I loved it! Maybe it's not a masterpiece or anything, but it brought back lots of good memories for me, and that's what I wanted.

 

Saw this on Sunday and liked it but was left wanting more. It didn't focus enough of Mikey and Donny. Plus, I had been hoping for more action between the turtles and monsters. We got one fight scene, one interaction scene and that was it except for the fight near the end. I'll probably get this on DVD if I can find for a good price.

PS: Did anybody else think the plot resembled 13 Ghosts?
