Megan Fox joins Michael Bay's "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles"


Recommended Posts

I thought that that was the worse thing. 

It just felt so generic to me. Buildings falling down, a looming grave threat, some secret the protagonists father hid from them..... Could have been a spiderman trailer if you swapped out the turtles. 

 

I mean, compared to the rest of the trailer the turtles looked cool. As in they looked like bulkier versions of the the old turtles.

I agree with everything else. Soon as it started with buildings falling. It didn't even need to say from producer Michael Bay.

I've just died inside.

 

The only redeeming thing in that trailer was the turtles looked cool.

 

The trailer looks pretty terrible & horrifcally generic. I think the turtles seem very nicely done at least.

 

 

Trailer was terrible... Thanks for ruining my childhood yet again, Hollywood.

 

Quick watch this & everything will be ok:

 

I didn't mind it actually. Not sure why everyone is like so mad about a movie they haven't even seen yet. Then again, I'm not that big of a TMNT fan.

For me at least, the style & tone seems very... bog standard & uninspired. Of course it's just a trailer, & trailers don't always represent the final film very well.

Megan looks like unprofessional photographer with her digital camera.

That's because April is a reporter, not a photographer.  :D

 

 

 

Oh crap, I just defended this movie.  :pinch:  :x

I think when they went from the real life suits + animatronics the originals had to CGI they lost some of the feel BUT now that it's CGI they fighting can be faster, the original movies was pretty slow, and really TMNT 3, time travel???  Come on guys!  Though the first 2 are solid, though you still have to be a fan to like them I think.

 

I'll give this a shot, I am/was a big TMNT fan back in the day, even had the rage inducing NES game, god that made me want to kill people.

And look how that worked out with the Star Wars prequels and Yoda leaping around like a deranged kangaroo.  :pinch:

And how else did you picture Yoda fighting a light saber match exactly?  He's only 2 feet.

Not like that!  :|

 

To be honest they should never have shown it. Just because movies are a predominantly visual medium doesn't mean everything has to be shown on screen. Often concepts are more powerful if they are simply implied. Obviously that doesn't help for a film like this where the entire concept is based around CGI characters. There are very few films that get away with entirely rendered characters - the Star Wars prequels weren't one of them, nor this film.

And yet I remember watching it in the theater and everyone getting excited, and cheering, when Yoda whipped out his lightsaber.    You're opinion is noted but I don't see any other way to do it, and to not do it because of that doesn't add up.  I'm betting the fans wanted to see just how Yoda could fight, probably been asking for it for years, so here you go.

WACUP 1.99.51.24568 Preview changelog: Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when doing some of the drag + drop actions within the media library window Fixed a loading crash seen related to a problem with some of the artwork cache image files being restored which should now be better handled allowing for the bad image to be removed without it failing Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when the internal metadata cache clearing is triggered which could block the main ui thread for too long with this now being moved to a background thread Fixed some performance issues with some of the methods related to determining artwork support which mainly affected the local library import / refresh (this is still slower for some compared to other players because there's more data & artwork aspects being checked for which means doing more processing on a single file despite the best of attempts to reduce duplicate / heavy processing where possible) Fixed a crash with the JTFE based missing files hotkey which no one seems to have used for an age for this to appear (maybe it's time to seriously consider stripping out features that aren't being used) Fixed how some of the file types which use extra information to reference their sub-songs is handled which was preventing some from being correctly resolved back to their base file (noticed fixing above) Fixed an issue with the handling of files with underscores in their filepath which wasn't being correctly handled causing some of the filename to be lost when shown as the title if title reading is delayed Fixed a few things that might be behind NotSoDirect not being stable for some setups though am still not certain that the changes done for this are going to fully resolve the problem from the crash reports Fixed the OS toast handling when there's no prior shortcut in the OS start menu to now create the shortcut (needed to allow the yes/no buttons for the new build / post-release toast) to be done as a hidden one so it's less likely to cause annoyance for those not wanting to see it whilst still allowing this less than ideal OS api implementation requirement to be met to avoid toasts without the needed buttons Fixed a regression when moving from taglib1 to taglib2 which broke some of the handling in place to allow for external programs to still access files when wacup has a held open cached instance of the file Everything else Updated cppwinrt (gen_win10shell.dll) to 3.0.260520.1 (26 May 2026) Updated libcurl (libcurl.dll) to 8.2.1 (24 Jun 2026) Updated Monkey's Audio (in_ape.dll) to 13.15 (28 Jun 2026) Updated mpg123 (mpg123.dll) to 1.33.6 (6 Jun 2026) Updated OpenSSL (libcurl.dll) to 3.5.7 (9 Jun 2026) Updated pugixml to 1.16 (16 Jun 2026) Updated taglib (tag2.dll) to 2.3.0 (11 May 2026) Updated vgmstream (in_vgmstream.dll) to the latest Git commit from 28 Jun 2026 Download: WACUP 64-bit | 9.6 MB (Freeware) Download: WACUP 32-bit View: WACUP Website | Screenshots Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
