[Movies] Michael bay is remaking Teenage mutant ninja turtles!

[Romire]

So apparently words spreading on twitter that Michael bay is remaking the Ninja turtles.

https://twitter.com/#!/search/%22Michael%20Bay%22

Apparently hes changing the original story plot that instead coming from the sewers, they come from space instead.

If he makes this, hes totally fucked up the child hood tv show!

Thoughts?

Michael bay is "Sodamising" the legacy

[Digglett]

Prepare for Turtles being background characters while humans are leads, April is a porn star, and mass explosions with bad stereotype humor.

And people will still pay a lot of money to see it.

If hes gonna do it then it will have lots of special effects and lots of explosions!

"Our team is working closely with one of the original creators of Ninja Turtles to help expand and give a more complex back story. Relax, we are including everything that made you become fans in the first place. We are just building a richer world."

Maybe we don't want a "more complex story" and "richer world", it's Ninja Turtles for god's sake, we just want a movie that will take us back to our childhood and not be terribly stupid and offensive.

But it's Michael Bay after all, and kids these days would most likely go crazy on the whole alien story.

He's just getting attention for the movie. He did the same thing with Transformers. He went against the fans' expectation, the extremely vocal fan gave him free press and attention when the fans voice their distaste for Bay's changed. The vocal fans are nothing but tools to pique the interest from non-fans. Best way to get Bay to do what the fans want is to ignore him and let the movie tanked, then hope for a reboot with someone else.

haha I was just reading something on the onion that is relevant to how I feel:

If he meant alien as in "foreign" or "non-similar" then I can see why he would tell people not to overreact. If he meant alien as in little green men from Mars, well, he deserves whatever rancor fans throw his way.

That said, I hope Digglett is right about...

April is a porn star

[Howard Moon]

I am sure it will be a truly excellent movie, just like all the other Michael Bay masterpieces out there!



(do I need a "/sarcasm" ?)

I agree...

Pornstar or underwear model.

When I saw the story yesterday or the day before that he was remaking TMNT and removing the Mutant and making them Aliens, I died a little inside. It is seriously like he has a vendetta against the children of the 80s and 90s. What did we ever do to Michael Bay? Stop ruining our memories damn it. He already pissed all over the legacy of Transformers. How on earth is he going to incorporate way to many explosions and other effect shots into a TMNT movie? So ehlp me god if the Turtles are like 15 feet tall and don't use their proper weapons, have the correct names, etc. I will be very sad.

Mary Elizabeth Winstead should totally be April O'Neal, but it will certainly be some model instead of a legitimate actress.

My brain kind of fell apart reading your second line before seeing it was an Onion article. Thundercats, the Sonic video games, Captain Planet, etc. will all inevitably be ruined by Bay. Truth be told I would love to see a Michael Bay Captain Planet movie just because of how many things would be ironically blown up despite them trying to save the Earth.

a "more complex story" and "richer world",

Two terms that have never existed in combination with Michael Bay, especially in a big budget franchise movie. I don't buy that he will start that method of filmmaking now.

What an insult to childhood. =/

I'm guessing Casey Jones is now a military explosives expert.

He'll get on his radio and phone an aircraft carrier to use its experimental rail gun on the Technodrome.

Michael Bay shouldn't be allowed to make movies.

I will speak with my wallet, I not going to see this movie.

Well Armageddon from 98 wasent that super bad as his newer movies is oh and pearl harbor.

OP: im so damn pissed off by this i dont even have words to describe how much i want micheal bay to frell off this planet into the sun.

I cant stand that guy.

I expect a crappy story with tons of CGI and explosions like every other movie he's done.

[Shinzai]

My predictions for this film:

The turtles are actually aliens.
The team split up after a retarded fight over some nonsense. Leonardo will get the gang back together. This will lead into a Raph + Leo bromance.
April O'Neil played by... January Jones (doing her bland X-Men First Class 'acting' again).
Shredder will have a deep and sincere back story as to why he's not actually evil.
Splinter will probably be a human with rat teeth and ears, looking more like a hairless freak than anything else.
Kinda expecting Rocksteady and Bebop to be stupid human thugs.
So many bad pop-culture refrences that it becomes grating after the first 5 minutes.
A CGI Technodrome. That blows things the f**k up. Then eventually f**king explodes. For 30 minutes.
A highway chase scene, where some crap is dropped out of a van or something to get in the turtle's way.

What good can I say? At least it's not Uwe Bolle.

I dare anyone to read this man's post without singing it in your head =)
