TMNT 2014 Trailer And Our Reaction

Okay first of all it's Teenage Mutant Ninja TURTLES not Tortoises; seriously they're like mini-Hulks.

Second, what the heck is the deal with their noses??? They're Shrek minus the ears.

There are a few positive notes, the Shredder armor looks pretty awesome, William Fichtner as Shredder though, good actor but not who'd we have chosen for the role. Megan Fox ultimately not the worst choice to play April O'Neil. And, yep that's pretty much it for the positives.

We will also be pretty disappointed if Dr. Baxter Stockman is ruined like he was in the Nickelodeon cartoon where instead of becoming a giant fly creature he becomes some idiot in a stupid looking machine.

Lastly, how does Michael Bay keep getting work?!?

So Long Childhood, May You Rest In Peace

First Look: Nickelodeon's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

Other than awful CG animation and what ever that is they are saying that replaces Cowabunga, this looks like something that we plan on at least giving a chance.

Plus, they aren't aliens!

Paramount Halts Production on Ninja Turtles

Paramount announced on June 15th, 2012 that production for Ninja Turtles, a reboot film to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise, has halted production.

According to sources it seems that Paramount is telling everyone that the script is not up to par. Some sources are also claiming that it's also a financial issue and that Paramount has asked for a script rewrite to bring the film down in budget.

At the moment Ninja Turtles hasn't officially hit the chopping block, but Paramount has moved it's release date back to May 2014 from it's original December 2013 date.

With this rewrite there are a few things we'd like to see...

• Remove the whole alien idea. Let them remain the Mutant Ninja Turtles
• Build off the films already released; this includes that 4th one which if you remember involved aliens.
• Keep the villain Krang, but make sure he's a representation of an established Krang, not some stupid hey we're going to make this villain completely different because we can.
• This one's very important, get rid of Michael Bay. Bay's films are great if you want hours of explosions and no real substance, but as a kid growing up on the turtles, we have higher hopes for this film.

Some time, some where there will be another Turtles movie, that's just a given. Will it be in 2014? Who knows. What we do know is that later this fall Nickelodeon has a new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon premiering, and when it succeeds, Paramount will be thinking long and hard about lighting a fire under their butts and getting a move on for producing their movie.

To The Comic Book Store #42

So this week's run to the comic book store was a tad bit on the disappointing side.

Why?

Well apparently as it turns out, I'm broke.

Oh well at least I was still able to pick up some free comics.


And that's it for this week. No WildC.A.T.S. action figures, still no Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic, or anything else new and exciting.

The important part though is I had fun, and that's what really counts.
