I would have settled for a CGI sequel as I really enjoyed the recent one.  I remain cautiously optimistic.

[CeeKay]

dangit, I really wanted to see a sequel to the CGI one, especially after what the foot chick hinted at towards the end.

Hopefully it'll finally give Vanilla Ice the comeback he deserves

I'd completely forgotten the horrors of that.

Christian "I reboot shit" Bale to star?

As Splinter.  He'd drop 150lbs and grow hair all over his face for the part.  That would rule.

[CeeKay]

they should get him to do the Superman re-boot.

[CeeKay]

so, the reboot is aimed for Christmas 2013, and guess who's involved?

Michael Bay!  only as Producer though.

and guess what, the Turtles are now space aliens!  before you get too outraged, Michael says chill.

Christ.  It's like he can only fathom characters from outer space.  Are they also actually robots?   

I think he fucks with things on purpose so he can revel in just how far he can push fans of the source material.

[Roman]

dollars to doughnuts that based on the outrage he'll craft the script so that the one or all of the properties that makes the radioactive ooze is from space or came from an alien ship that the goberment kept secret.....

that way he gets his alien link while staying true to the original.

Spoiler for Hiden:

or he could make the link from his Transformers movies by using the 'blood' that comes from dead robots

Either way he's a wanker.

[leo8877]

Why does he have to ruin everything?

[CeeKay]

Christ.  It's like he can only fathom characters from outer space.  Are they also actually robots? 

just think of the racial stereotypes they can pull out for this one

Peter Laird(co-creator of TMNT)has something to say about Megan Fox

http://www.aintitcool.com/node/61320

Finding a kind thing TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES co-creator Peter Laird might have to say about Paramount's reboot of the material with Michael Bay producing and Jonathan Liebesman directing is really no easier than finding a needle in a haystack. While his former partner in crime, Kevin Eastman, has been laying down the positivity on what's planned for the relaunch, Laird has been incredibly critical about virtually every aspect. Needless to say, he's not a fan of what's going on here... and that continues with Laird sharing his opinion on Megan Fox being cast as April O'Neil.

"My only exposure to Megan Fox as an actress is through her role in two TRANSFORMERS movies and the wretched (but happily forgettable) JENNIFER'S BODY. It may not be fair to judge her range of acting skills just from those three movies, but I think it is safe to say that there are probably hundreds of better choices for the role of April O'Neil. Of course, her name has promotional value, and maybe that's what they want. Who knows? I can't get myself too worked up about it."

I knew she was in the film,i didn't know she had actually been cast as April O' Neil,but i suppose it was a given after learning she was in it

[Isgrimnur]

I haven't enjoyed a single film that I've seen in which she has appeared.  Having her as April doesn't give me confidence that that track record is about to change.

There were a couple of internet pictures I enjoyed.

[Rumpy]

She actually kind of looks like the April O'Neil from the 80's cartoon series and I'm willing to give her benefit of doubt since she hasn't had much material to really push her out of her comfort zone.

[raydude]

One could get the (cough) actress known as "April O' Neil" to play April O' Neil.

Will Arnett joins TMNT cast

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/will-arnett-joining-megan-fox-432515

Will Arnett has joined Megan Fox as one of the leads in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, being made by Paramount and Michael Bay's Platinum Dunes production banner.

Arnett’s role is being kept secret, though still uncast from the Ninja Turtles mythology are Splinter, the turtles' sensei rat, and the villainous and masked Shredder. Arnett is not playing the turtles' human friend Casey, another role that has yet to be cast.

Chicken Dance confirmed!! 

[Teggy]

Need to see Megan Fox as a redhead before I have an opinion.

His... jaw...? It's freaking me out.

Bay clarifies on the Alien Turtles rumour
Den of Geek

“There was that quote saying that we’re making [the Ninja Turtles as] aliens. We’re not. It’s the ooze! It’s from the original source material. These are from the original writers, and I never went out to correct myself in the press. “

So there we go. Not aliens, alien ooze.

To be fair though,as the article states,the rumour came after Bay said it himself and a(now scrapped) script leaked online confirming that they were Aliens

[metallicorphan]

seems a lot of people are complaining about Megan Fox,with new pictures showing her wearing a Yellow Jacket...people are complaining because its not the yellow jumpsuit from the 80s


The Sun

[Lordnine]

Of all the things to complain about that wouldn’t make my top 100.  The original Turtles movie didn’t have a yellow jumpsuit and the movie was great for the time; it even holds up pretty well for today.  Just don’t try to watch the sequels…

Clothing looks fine but they should have given her a bit of a haircut and made her hair more red.
