Sometimes you just gotta fictionalize NYC a bit. There are plenty of back alleys and rough neighborhoods now anyway. I can't imagine marvel's daredevil series is gonna have him lurking on the roof of a Starbucks...

i still think it looks horrible
Umm, that's not where it ends. Listen to what the Shredder is saying. Your father was a part of something, and that something results in the creation of the movie's heroes, and the guy saying this happens to be the villain who will be fighting our heroes. Everything's gotta be about destiny these days and nothing can happen by accident.
No,no it was more a comment about Bay reusing stuff in Transformers,in this case he may be copying from another movie i.e. guess the man doesn't have an original bone in his body.

nope, foot soldier. way to change things so much they are not instantly recognizable bay..
playmates can NOT make a decent Shredder figure to save their lives..

Super Shredder was an awesome figure!.. But yeah. Even the original Shredder figure that they released not only looked like an old man wearing a paper helmet, but his "squat" legs rendered him totally impossible to pose. What the heck were they thinking?

I like both of those designs a lot. If the final characters looked exactly like that, I'd be happy.

This looks like something the makers of this new movie should have watched.

The only figure that's good is the April O'Neal figure. Great for potential custom fodder.

"The uploader has not made this video availaible in your country." Bah.
It was from the official Paramount UK channel, didn't realize they blocked it for US viewers. I have now updated it to show the video from the official TMNT channel.

Thanks! Man, I really hate the voices. Like, so much. More than the faces, I think. I'm so on the fence about this. But leaning back toward "train wreck." Can't wait to see the reviews.

Very self-referential at the end - it's like they flipped the bird at the fans when they were forced to rewrite it.
"So they're aliens?"
"No, that's stupid. They're turtles."
This trailer actually had "fanbase soothing" all over it. Definitively say they're not aliens, show William Fichtner refer to someone else owning the original Shredder armor, etc. It seems like its got a confusing injection of the 80s cartoon in it - like when everyone was up in arms about departing from the source material, that's what they revisited to try and smooth things over. Was anyone clamoring for accurate depictions of Burne Thompson and Irma from Channel 6 news?
