Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2014)

Donnie-The Scientist.......mmmm, more like a Nerd wannabee with the goggles on, don't like it....loose them.
Mikey-The Hipster........that face suggests otherwise, he's got an IceT thing going on there, which doesn't suit him.
Raph-The guy with the mean attitude, Ican see that happening here, not bad on that front
Leo-The leader, not bad either.

The point is they look too massive, but looking at Leo's solo picture, I could get into that....Raph could be fine enough, but Mikey and Donnie looking like that, mmmmm:unsure

Just like with the transformers for instance, they were made too technical in the life-action movies, with all the insides showing, too chaotic , too unrecognizable, to much focus on the humanparts.Why can't Bay keep to the code, why the reinvention? I see that happening with the turtles too in a way.

Don't get me started on Shredhead, he looks too Mechanical, even Vader has more life going for him than this guy, Bay-hole just wants to show-off , that's the point isn't it.

Because Bay's a talentless hack with no respect for franchises or even an interest in them, he's just out to make a paycheck. He publicly said he didn't like the Transformers franchise so i bet he has no interest in this one other than a big ass paycheck. The fact he keeps casting megan fox makes me wonder if they got a thing going on too.
 
Blame the character designers than, they're such a waste of space aren't they, all they have to do is keep their designs to a certain code a base-line , what they do is frag **** up, just to impress and show-off,in order to reach that dollar amount.


Just take a simple example, like the Merchandising for the Transformers (because Transformers were all about merchandising before the movies came out, right), well to avoid the shi**y movie versions , a lot of us are buying third-party unofficial knock-offs because they look way better, why should we buy the Movie-crap anyway.
 
We need a good "Nope" gif here, stat.

Oh, I get it, the smart one has glasses and the cool one gets shades. Subtle Mr. Bay, you tricky devil.

Ha. You said "subtle" and "Michael Bay" in the same sentence. :)

I'm sorry I look at the new Shredder and all I see is Megatron from the new movies.

Ultimately, this is where I come out. The designs look too...I dunno..busy. Too much. The lines aren't clean enough. I'm not saying they have to look like the animatronics from the 90s, nor that they need to look exactly like the comics from the 80s. But Shredder in particular looks like the busy, awful, too detailed designs from Bayformers, and the turtles look like even worse caricatures than they were in the 90s cartoon. So, I guess, Leonardo leads, and Donatello does machines, huh?

I dunno. I just don't trust Bay to make an entertaining film. To the contrary, I trust him to make an awful, expensive spectacle that is easily relatable to by your average pre-teen hopped up on Mountain Dew. If I were 12 years old...well, I'd probably still think his films are dumber than a bag of hammers, but I might at least find them entertaining. Now? Now they're just wastes of time that I could be spending doing more entertaining things, like housework.
 
Now he just has to ruin Super Mario World, Micro Machines, and Legos and he will single-handedly have destroyed my entire childhood.
 
Here's my question. Will the Turtles be the characters that the story revolves around? That was usually the big question when it came to the Transformer sequels since Bay's first film had about as much interest in the Transformers themselves as Return of the Jedi was with Bothans. Sure, we'll have April O'Neil, but where's the stereotypical black guy, the 'other' hot girl who knows more than the smartest people in the country, the completely racist and, drumroll please.

*BRbRbrbrbrbrbbrbrbrbrbrbr*

The military?

Obviously if the Turtles are going to fight in a big area, our real heroes in uniform who "don't like to lose" will not sit idly by.

"Men, we are about to face off against Shredder and help those turtles. It will be dangerous, so anyone who wants to step this one out, do so now."
*No one does*
"Than let's gear up!"

God bless America.
 
When are people going to realize producer does not equal writer/director/casting agent or anything else? Bay didnt make this movie, a company he has ownership in made it. Big difference.

I actually lol'd at the second part of this.

Never. I'll always hate him.

When that leaked script, that was basically swapping out transformers for april and casey, was confirmed as an early draft, it's obvious he has far more final say. Besides, isn't the producer the guy who basically puts up all the money and production stuff? The Director generally just controls the actual shoot, not so much the production side, right?
 
He runs that company which means he's got control of the purse for the budget which means he's pulling the strings from behind. It wouldn't be the first time in history it's happened.
 
There's like 6 producers on this movie, he doesnt have final word. And I bet he's probably been pretty hands off since he had to get tf4 ready.
 
You'd think with all the hate there is for him he'd realize his name on a project doesn't improve ticket sales. Too bad transformers aren't real, we could hope one stepped on him and put him out of our misery.
 
This is getting ridiculous, people. We haven't seen a single finished frame of the movie, let alone a trailer, and everybody is declaring it a complete disaster, without knowing so much as the story, and for what? Because Michael bay's name is attached? Because the Shredder doesn't look the way you wanted? It all sounds like a child throwing a tantrum because his mom wont let him have an ice cream.

Michael Bay has a proven track record of dreck. I mean, I've never kissed a decomposing goat either, but I can just assume it's not gonna be something I enjoy.
