Oh JESUS CHrist

What the FUCK, michael Bay.

What are you doing to my Ninja Turtles. I mean, I'm sure the movie will be a hell of a blast. And I'm going to be there first day. I mean, I saw TMNT 3 in theaters, FUCK, I know right? You don't want to go to your grave having THAT pile of shit as you only TMNT Theatrical experience.

Now the biggest problem to me as a huge gargantuan ridiculous ass fucking TMNT fan is that they're fucked up the goddamn designs. You don't finally bring back the tmnt to live action then have them rocking some shitty weird offshoot designs that we've never seen before and look ridiculous. It was bad enough that they changed shit for Next Mutation. But this is unbelievable. You have to be shitting me with this. It's optimus with flames all over again. Now it's turtles with gogoboots and garbage.

There must be a fury online about the costume changes to the turtles, got to be. This is just horrible to me.

It's WORSE than superman without the underpants. Hopefully snyder wakes up and says well, yeah I'm a dumbass for having superman's crotch grab everyone's attention in the theater, but who knows...

It's just hollywood being all pretentious and cocky pretty much... Really, I mean that's somehting I've been made aware of. They view themselves as elite artists. Yunno, like the difference between Major league and minor league and of course little league. It's we're the elite and can do whatever the fuck we want attitude.

So that's what's going on. They have no respect for the source material. They'll just pump out this movie with all kinds of stupid changes and it'll barely resemble the original comics or even the great tmnt2k3, or hell even this new shitty cgi cartoon they're shitting out on tv these days.

THEY DON'T GET IT.

TMNT has got to be one of the most impressive sci-fi comics on this planet. For its bizarre yet strangely alluring and captivating art styles. I always found that great as a kid, how weird the ninja turtles comics were. YEAH. I was a kid, hanging out in the room up stairs and there was a couple tmnt comics on. Of course I was into the cartoon like every one else, but I wasn't oblivious to the source material which was very much a send up to the sci-fi genre.

Which is full of fascinating concepts around the issue of radioactive mutation and what that can lead to, science, and the abuse of it etc.  There's just so much stuff to actually engage you mentally within the world of tmnt. They like to constantly harp on the family/brotherhood stuff, but that's not really what tmnt was about. It's about science. One of them is actually a super smart scientist. And that's because the series is about the complex issues arising from that world of science, mutation, robots, of course the turtles are an interesting result of science gone mad and they have to dedicate their lives to battling their own kind a lot. Which is the point. It makes an intersting argument about how science can be abused and create evil and also what can happen if you use the science for the RIGHT reason and defend people and use it to hopefully make lives better for everyone.

So I don't know if this movie is going to give a flying fuck about the complex underlining subtext of the Ninja Turtle world. Most likely not. But I love the turtles and hope that some how someway the people involved actually know a little about the source and are going to try to squeeze some of it in and didn't just grow up watching fucking 80s cartoon or something like that.
