After receiving plenty of criticism and bad press, Michael Bay and Jonathan Liebesman's upcoming Ninja Turtles movie reboot seems to be heading into the right direction. After a less than stellar leaked script, the movie has been rewritten by Snow White And The Huntsman scribe Evan Daugherty, according to TMNT Lair. The movie has now, according to the same site, been renamed Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, as per a logo showed by Paramount Pictures during their CinemaCon presentation. One of the many complaints about the film was the original decision to go with Ninja Turtles, which dropped the words "Teenage" and "Mutant". So what do you guys think? Are the Turtles mutant again and not some ancient aliens mumbo jumbo?

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles stars Megan Fox, Will Arnett, Danny Woodburn, Alan Ritchson, Pete Ploszek, Jeremy Howard and Noel Fisher. Currently in production, the film is set to hit theaters June 6th, 2014.

Though Bay's involvement doesn't exactly have me thrilled, I'm keeping my mouth shut until I actually see something..

So re-written? So...I'm assuming that's why we are also now getting Shredder instead of that Col. Schrader crap. Good.

I wonder what other changes were made in addition.

It's being re-written or has been re-written? Cause if they're still writing this, it's in even more trouble than previously speculated.

Thats a good step in the right direction. Let us find a way to fire Megan Fox lol. Plenty of good actresses that would be perfect for the role.

Snow White and the huntsman is pretty good, some acting was pretty bad... (Meaning mostly Stewart)... But lets see how this ends up...

Well, I hate Michael Bay with the fire of ten thousand suns, but, if they made changes to the screenplay (and the title) to assuage the fans, I actually respect that.

I thought i read the plot description somewhere and it was: aliens invade, then MAKE the turtles, and the turtles fight the aliens. I'll wait to see the reviews say actually happens before i see it.
