UPDATE: Michelangelo Voice Actor Says Michael Bay Is "Sodomizing" The TMNT Legacy

I wish there was a like button to these last 2 comments instead of a report button

I have a steel toed boot just waiting for Bay's ASS

he hasnt done a good movie since Armageddon. he needs to go back to music videos and leave our childhood memories alone

I'm not, and never have been, a TMNT fan. However, I absolutely HATE it when someone gets their grubby little fingers on anything that is as near and dear as this franchise is to people's hearts and feel compelled to rip it apart and change it up completely.

He better not even be thinking of touching Thundercats, He-man or Voltron next

Not gonna watch if the Turtles are aliens.

Hey look,I found the leaked script:

April o' Neil and Casey jones are two teenagers living their dream. They spend the day listening to metal,taking care of their rat,splinter and watching karate movies. But when an asteroid from the planet turtlesia crashes at April and Casey's home things get a whole lotta cooler. Why? Cause the asteroid is actually a spaceship containing four alien turtles. But it will get even more radical when splinter is mutant into a giant rat and the couple must teach the aliens the ways of humans through pizzas,the Internet and karate movies. All the while an alien called krang invades earth with his army of triceratops making the turtles actually become ninjas and kick a lot of ass while eating a slice of pizza.

and I thought it was stupid when he gave prime lips this has taken the cake

Hooray for (TAINT) Teenage Alien Interdimensional Ninja Turtles

ALIENS

teenage MUTANT ninja turtles

Wait, Michael Bay writes scripts for his movies? I thought it was always just one big explosion while I scream "booooooooooooooooooooooriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiingg".

lol your such a bunch of whining bitches seriously, aww bay boo hoo, like he cares look at the millions hes made, i enjoyed transformers, 2 was a bit weak and i did really enjoy 3, yes we all know the back story of the turtles bout the ooze yadda yadda yadda, but the word MUTANT can be used widespread, look at the history of movies, why cant a mutant come from another planet, i loved the first turtles film, the second was ok and the 3rd pure tripe, now im not really bothered what he does as long as he gets the rest of the movie right, personally i would like to see someone with a bit darker background direct it, and keep it like the first movie and not some campy ass movie for kids, but saying that we were kids once...... but one thing that does annoy me and its not just here but people bitch so much about stuff, do you what i do if i dont like something i dont watch it or dont listen to it, i dont sit around pissing and moaning and then go watch it anyways which is what most of you will do and probably love, i refused to watch daredevil because affleck was in it, the directors cut is amazing, i refused and bitched about bourne because matt damon was in it, when i did its one of my fav trilogy sets ever, im gonna watch it anyways wether it be piss poor or awesome time will tell there aint even been a screen shot or a cast added yet so there aint much to moan about

I relax Bay if you tell me they are not aliens... or from another dimension!
Turtles are from planet earth and thats it! I dont have it any other way!

Bay should only be allowed to work on original material, let him make bad original movies.

Whats frustrating is that TMNT has a long track record of being popular on the original premise, so why change it. The built in audience wants a story that captures the story they know but done really well.

It's like Nolan taking over Batman and saying, I'm going to make Bruce Wayne a poor man who fights crime. Or Superman is now just a dude from Nebraska who gains powers from a piece of kryptonite that fell to earth.

Or, instead of making Anakin a sympathetic hero we come to love and cheer for, who slowly becomes corrupted by trying to do right by use of POWER, lets just make him a whiny little teenage b.itch that everyone is just annoyed by.


The problem, is that when you let someone like Bay handle projects with a built in audience, the box office numbers give studios and others the illusion the movies a hit because of Bay and not because of the built in audience.

Don't tell me to chill.
