Love the costume design, but they looks pretty hyper-realistic. No way around that though, seeing as how theyre big ass Turtles.

Good or bad, lets be honest, we'll all see it.

Bobholly138 03-27-2014 02:14 PM

It looks like generic action film #4 but with the Turtles thrown in. I get a feeling I will be dragged to see this.

Well yeah it's the fucking Ninja Turtles!

Bobholly138 03-27-2014 02:39 PM

Thanks to my girl I am sure I will end up seeing it. She is a huge original Cartoon TMNT fan. But she was also fairly young when that show started airing. I discovered the Turtles about a year before the cartoon started. And prefer the b/w comic book version. Though the Fox Kids show was good.

Kalyx triaD 03-27-2014 04:11 PM

YES I dig it.

Not sure about Foot Clan 'terrorists' but Shredder's mask look badass. Fox looks... okay in this. And the turtles rock.

Cool King 03-27-2014 04:25 PM

Urgh, it just looks like your average Michael Bay tripe. I know it'll do well at the box office though as it's the type of thing most people like these days.

Cool King 03-27-2014 04:25 PM

Also, is it just me or does Michelangelo remind anyone else of Rey Mysterio, at the end of the trailer?

Kalyx triaD 03-27-2014 04:58 PM

No, it's you.

And I don't see anything that screams Bay. Not a single explosion.

Cool King 03-27-2014 06:17 PM

I'm glad that you decided to speak on behalf of everyone on the forum to tell me that it's just me. Also, I don't know what trailer you watched as there's an explosion about ten seconds into it.

The trailer has it's usual Bay traits. Explosions, guns, lens flares aplenty, that low bass "bwowwww" noise, mass destruction of tall structures, slow motion impact that's sometimes accompanied with the low bass noise, and I wasn't surprised to see Megan Fox being the lead female.

slik 03-27-2014 06:23 PM

It will be terrible and I will pay money to see it

I like how Donetello and Michaelangelo look different in the face.

Emperor Smeat 03-27-2014 06:35 PM

Michangello's face looked really bad but the trailer seemed a bit decent and still have low expectations for it.

Kris P Lettus 03-27-2014 06:35 PM

Watched it again, might just be Donetellos expression. It would be cool though

I meant it looked like they had different characteristics than each other.

Looks pretty cheesy but I will smoke one and watch it

Sounds and looks like every trailer ever these days.

Also like how you say I don't speak for everyone while proclaiming things as if you're speaking for everyone.

Cool King 03-27-2014 06:50 PM

All my posts are my opinions, just like most people here. I've not implied that I am speaking for everyone.

To me, all I see when it comes to big budget Bay films is what's contained within that trailer, hence why I said "average Michael Bay tripe" and so on and so forth, whereas you implied that it was just me that thought the Mysterio thing (which by the way, I was messing around) with your answer of "No, just you".

That would have been acceptable if everyone told you that they didn't think that, then you posted your reply. For all you know, someone could watch it, get what I was saying and maybe even see it too.

You could have easily have said something along the lines of "Nah, I don't see it, myself".

Cool King 03-27-2014 06:50 PM

But anyway, all that doesn't matter, so I'll just get the point again and say that I think the film looks a bit shit, though I'm sure other people will enjoy it.

Kalyx triaD 03-27-2014 06:51 PM

Okay.

Yeah well, he hires Megan Fox since he has a thing for hot babes in action movies. :P

Good thing, Michael stuck to the Green Ooze origin story instead of the outer space visitation plotline..

And it's almost similar to the one Kevin Nash was wearing in TMNT 2: Secret of the Ooze.

Kalyx triaD 03-27-2014 08:36 PM

Megan Fox is not as hot as people say. Surely not a 'hot babe'.

Blonde Moment 03-27-2014 08:46 PM

It has Micheal Bay written all over it but I will watch it anyways, just like I watched Daredevil and Fantastic Four bombs, because I am a fan of the genre.

Take a look at Sparks

Where exactly did you get a clear look at Doni? The only ones that got any decent screen time is Leo and Mikey.

Disturbed316 03-27-2014 11:36 PM

Could be interesting, not 100% sold on it though.

You are absurd

Kalyx triaD 03-28-2014 01:25 AM

I'm from Miami. She barely scores above chicks doing laundry in their pajamas here.

Fignuts 03-28-2014 02:42 AM

People have different tastes in women.

Shocking and new topic worth debating.

Also, I can kinda see the Mikey/Mysterio thing. It's the eyes mainly. Not a drastic similarity, but I see it.

I'm feeling you. I'm a bit underwhelmed by this trailer, personally for the same reasons as you.

Feels like another giant Bay set-piece and I want it to be a film about ninjas brawling with teenage mutant turtles in the underworld. I want to watch them wage war in the dark while the rest of the world goes by completely unaware.

Damian Rey 03-28-2014 12:26 PM

The Bay all over the place references are justified. This looks like Transformers with turtles. I don't care for a large scope of a movie. Felt like the first one got it right. This is probably going to be a mess. Hope I'm wrong, though.

Also, I still cannot fathom why Megan Fox was cast, and why Shredder is a white man. Baffling.

Only a gay nigger like yourself would feel this way.

Damian Rey 03-28-2014 01:51 PM

Yeah, even though I don't like her casting...

I mean...come one Kalyx.

This film can be redeemed with about 25 minutes of sewer battle(s) and 10 minutes of night-time ninja fighting. I wouldn't care if the rest was in daylight in the middle of a crowded intersection.

I'll probably still watch it, but unless it piques my Ninja Turtle interest I'll wait for Netflix or On Demand.

Will quibble with Shredder choice, that dude is latino and can potentially pull off being half Japanese and hiding his secret ancestry.

And if Kalyx doesn't want to bang Megan Fox that's his call, guys. We don't choose who we are attracted to. That's one of the reasons I support marriage equality and have been endorsed by GOProud.

Leo's mask looked purple on my tablet

alvarado52 03-28-2014 04:51 PM

While I recognize Megan Fox as an attractive lady, Im with Kalyx to a degree. She simply doesnt strike me the way a Yvonne Strahovski, Jillian Murray, or Jaimie Alexander does. Doesnt mean I wouldnt bone her...just means, if I had a chance to bone any of the previous mentioned, she would come in last.

This isn't a complaint, just a bit of arm-chair stuff.

I would have had Splinter doing the voice-over narration for the trailer even if I left him out. Would have played it very dark, the darkest scenes in the movie, almost overly serious and then at the end have Splinter say something like,

"In time they will be forced to take the role they were born to take...until then...COWABUNGA!"

And put a scene with Mikey taking a selfie and eating a pizza with sound of all the guys partying in the background followed by 6 second montage of skateboard in the sewer, a Foot being slammed between two shells and a final shot of Shredder's silhouette.

BAM and even would have kept this music:

Coming to a theater near you...NEVER.

The Rogerer 03-28-2014 06:11 PM

If you're an actual straight man, then hotness is as much about charisma as it is looks. If you're a sweaty emotionally stunted nerd or a closeted homosexual, then you can't detect that part and just go for flawless mannequins like Megan Fox or Maryse

The Mask 03-28-2014 06:30 PM

Looks shite. Over dark, over complicated looking characters and over all over the place action cam like a lot of other crap.
