Crazy. Just downloaded season 1, from 1986, and was watching it yesterday.
I could still remember every scene, almost 30 years later.
Watching it though, I realized that the show is so unique that making it into a movie in this day and age is damn near impossible. its either gotta be all cgi, or completely modified so that the teenage mutant ninja turtles werent even turtles...
i think the biggest hit that franchise could have would be if tarantino directed it, and it was a story about 4 renegade ninjas from japan, led by their master splinter, on a quest for revenge against shredder--maybe some guy that does something awful to women with blades or some off the wall sh*t like that. beebop and rocksteady could be some huge goons with automatic rifles and chains, ready for war at the drop of a hat. the foot soldiers could be guys that all dress the same, and it would basically be gore porn as the teenage ninjas dismember the foot clan with bows, sais, nun chucks and katanas. krang could be a living brain, grown to epic proportions, hooked up to an artificial intelligence machine.
theres just a hell of a lot more room for growth, and the potential for a film trilogy, by making all these things "realistic." not to mention, it could be targeted towards adults, and since the people that grew up watching it are all over 25 now, why not.
and at first i was like, "no way, nickelodian owns the rights, they would never," but goddamn have you watched nickelodian lately?? wtf?? i happened to see it the other day while i was in a hotel with my wife, and they got characters on there sanding the feet of beautiful underage girls, and eating the dust from the soles of their feet, saying stuff like "mmmmmmmmmm the goddesses's foot flakes "
wtf is wrong with this world, im never having a child.
what a terrible terrible idea. seriously, smack yourself for writing that shyt.
Also, they already did a completely CGI ninja turtles movie and it sucked ass. The first live action Ninja Turtles movie was perfectly executed, part 2 was pretty good too. if they could do it back then they could do it now. Sometimes costumes work better than CGI.
u know what's funny ?actually im amazed at that pic how good they look in the new movie....
its a great great great GREAT cartoon--maybe the best ever. but if you try to make that live action-its going to be campy as hell (see: all 3 attempts at making it live action.)
Must everything be watered down and b*stardized these days
:bane:It would be Extremely PainfulWhat does the new Shredder look like?
Wait
I dont wanna see
We would be but I don't know if Megan would look right in that Outfit. What about America's New Favorite It Girl, Jennifer Lawrence?if April wears a yellow jumpsuit and white boots through out the movie the Gods will be pleased!.....
well i hate to break it to you, but for as long as were on this planet, theres going to be no cinematic way to make 4 human like turtles carry out the commands of a human like rat, to go to war against a human like rhino and a human like warthog, who are under the control of a talking brain.
trying to make THAT scenario look good on the big screen and appeal to adults?
only way to make it even remotely succesful is to make it allegorical in nature. bay tried to go in that direction (aliens) and everyone complained.
its a great great great GREAT cartoon--maybe the best ever. but if you try to make that live action-its going to be campy as hell (see: all 3 attempts at making it live action.) if you make it cgi, nickelodian will step in and see to it that it's age appropriate, because children are the target demo for cartoons, so the odds of having a pixar-level, quality tmnt cgi flick are infinitesimal.
the entire franchise is pigeon-holed into a place in the market that makes it virtually impossible to succeed on the big screen without a major re-imagining.
