Anyone here planning on seeing the new TMNT film? I am. From the previews I seen I am looking forward to this. The new style is nice also!

I also like the preview trailer. Seems promising. IF they show it in the cinema around here (we only have one (!!) cinema in the 3 neighboring towns), I might watch it with my friends. But the cinema here just shows crap. Movies we aren't interested in. We wanted to watch the new Rocky and they didn't show it. I fear TMNT won't be on, too. Well, this means ye olde mule has to bring in the movie again when the DVD is out. :wink:

I don't know if it would be a good idea to just open a "New releases" topic or not, but it is getting a little old seeing "Anyone planning on seeing (insert movie)". Just my two cents. As far as the movie, I have high hopes for this movie. Doubt I will go see it in the theater but I will probably PAY to watch it, versus the other way :wink:. I loved the others sooo much as a kid. I guess I haven't seen them in a long time... Maybe time to download some?:razz:

No it wouldn't be a good idea. Guess why? We already have a movie thread that nobody uses..
As for the TMNT movie, I'll probbaly get it from demonoid after it's dvd release. I wish they would have stuck to the animated, funny, good natured ass kicking turtles of the 80s though. :(

Well I could make the movies thread a sticky, but only if there's much interest. We already have 3 stickies in off-topic...
But if Aaron is going to post a thread for every new movie out I'll consider the sticky-version. :wink:

I am definetly going to see the new TMNT movie. They've put the posters up at the cinema, so I know they're going to show it.

Actually, not all was thinking. Some was plotting, some was planning, and finally the explaining of my plan which I plotted after I thought of it.

I must say, after being exposed to the original 1984 style turtles and their 2002 comic redesign, I am beginning to realize how bastardized the series got after the cartoon came out, and I always wondered why the first movie felt so different, and it was because it was almost a direct adaptation of the comic. Hell, they cussed and actually used their weapons.
It seems though that with this new movie and the end of the 2003 series, the turtles are returning to their dark roots.
In short. I'm gonna see it.

THEY RUINED IT!
I've always loved the ninja turtles. How can they do this to them? looks kind of weird if you ask me.
I just beat the super mario bros 2 world record!

There's original, and there's classic. Classic is better.

I sent the link to the complete first issue of TMNT once here on this forum. You'll see how dark it was, especially compared to the 80's cartoons. The first issue was very similar to the first film, the beginning, the whole plot, the characters and the end. With a little few twists of course. Here you get to see Shredder for the first time as his alter ego, Orouku Saki, a Japanese business man in New York. The ending is sort of like the first movie, when Shredder falls into that dumpster from the rooftop, only here he plans on killing the turtles including himself by setting off a grenade that he holds in his hand. Donatello prevents this by knocking him off the roof with his Bo Staff, we see the grenade go off, which ultimately kills him.
Actually, not all was thinking. Some was plotting, some was planning, and finally the explaining of my plan which I plotted after I thought of it.

NOW!! You got me right there. :lol: (Although I could edit mine AND your post... :wink: )
My friends and I have an "agreement" now. When they show this movie in the one nearby cinema we'll go watch it. The next cinema is about 30 miles away. :x

It's going to be awesome!

For the price of one ticket, you might as well wait until DVD release day and buy it at Walmart for a couple bucks more. Plus you don't get the annoying kids being loud factor. http://www.myspace.com/jennikisaI need friends.... I had to nix Tom. He wasn't really my friend. His smile "mocked" me.
