Possible New Info For TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES Reboot; Krang To Be The Villain?

Still dont get it. :/

Why not just make Krang loose his experimental Ooze mutagen which turns Turtles and Splinter into humanoid beings?

Why is that so hard?

hopefully they loose the dimensional turtles idea.

Hahahahahhahahahahahahahaha

Looks like you're upset Grif. ;)

I would be jumping for joy right now if I still cared.

I'm usually not one to bitch about a different take on things, but.... ALIENS???? No.... Just.... No....

I agree with keeping the origin the same, but it may make it easier to get the whole interdimensional transport into the story. Get some Osaki mujimbo or whatever his name is in there.

Whats with these filmmakers these days?! Everyone wants to give stories new spins even they dont need that!:/

If the turtles are aliens I PROMISE I won't see it! These characters are a huge part of my childhood and that's just ruining it! How stupid!

Wow, people really do sound like 5 year olds when reacting to this whole "Turtles are Aliens" thing. People need to calm the [frick] down for real. I'm a Turtles fan myself and I could deal with this change, even if it is far from their roots.

alot of hate! i LOVE IT! haha
i agree with all yall why wud they be a alien race i mean it does and would kind of make sense if u think about it but no just no they shudnt do it!

if u gon reboot it keep the origin the same maybe jst spice it up a lil but an alien race? hell no!
and yea no shatter we already seen him in the old movies i think its time for a new bad guy

Teenage MUTANT Ninja Turtles, not Teenage ALIEN Ninja Turtles. Michael Bay is the biggest retard in Hollywood, [frick]ing stupid cocksucking shit bag crap munching [frick]ing [foo foo] wanker.

Sorry. Now for a more intellectual arguement: The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles need to be TURTLES, who have been MUTATED into being human sized, and are trained as NINJAS by fellow MUTATED animal Splinter, a rat, who raises them as his own until they are TEENAGED, at which point they begin their adventures under Splinter's watchful eye. A reboot could have so much potential, I'd love to see a darker, more violent take on the turtles, with the right balance of humour and seriousness, and a villain who isn't Splinter for a change, at least not in this first installment of what will obviously become a franchise.

The fundamental dynamic is that the turtles are brothers, and are the only ones of their kind. They identify with Splinter and look up to him like a father, because he's in a similar situation, because he was an animal who mutated like them (I prefer the origin where he is the pet of Hamato Yoshi, rather than Hamato Yoshi himself. His knowledge of renaissance art, providing the turtles' names, could be due to his former owner's love of renaissance art, and Hamato Yoshi could've been something of an odd, reclusive and eccentric ninja master who treated Splinter the rat as if he was intelligent anyway)
If the mutant dynamic is lost, the relationship with Splinter also fails, instantly resulting in a major, and unforgivable, deviation from the canon.

I'd also like to see the varying levels of the father/sons and teacher/students dynamic explored, with Donatello being the intellectual who is keen to learn anything he can, Leonardo as the naturally skillful leader, Raphael as the hotheaded loner, Michelangelo as the class goofball, and Splinter as the patient, caring yet strict teacher/father.

I want to see the Turtles struggle to find their place in society, as mutated members of their species changed through science, and I want to see how they fight against evil and learn what it is to discover their humanity.

Of course, we'll never get any of that with Michael Bay involved in any capacity. Instead, it'll be aliens appear through a dimensional portal, people are scared of them except a boy and a girl who like each other and get together in the end. The turtles will learn ninja skills and human (specifically stereotypical New York teenager) culture, acquiring a taste for pizza when said boy and girl order one. They'll call themselves ninjas due to learning the skills over the internet, but will never actually use these skills, instead fighting a villain who will appear in every film in the series that will die in progressively bigger explosions in each film. They'll decide to stay on Earth as Earth's protectors, and await more members of the species' arrival. Intersperse all of that with borderline racist humour and no coherent story-line

It'll basically be a cross between all the Transformers films, the recent Smurfs film, and recycled Two and a Half Men humour

Wow, I was hoping Michael Bay saying the turtles were aliens was misinterpreted or something.

This reboot isn't getting off to a good start. Why can't they just stick with source material?

I'm not sure about Krang being the first villain either.

IT BETTER BE GOOD CUS THIS IS ONE FAN YOU DON"T WANT TO PISS OFF WHEN IT COMES TO THE NINJA TURTLES.

Besides the rant, can't wait to see what the character's will look like.

If the ooze, the mutagen that affected the turtles and splinter, was an interdimentional biproduct of Krang entering the turtles' dimension, then I could accept that, if the turtles and splinter were Earth born. But that's the only difference that can be made and still work, changing any more would ruin the idea of TMNT.

It's not like many other comic book properties where origins or members of a team can be tweaked in movies with relatively little effect. But the TMNT are just four characters, and you can't change that. Same with the Fantastic 4 really.
