Movie looks terrible and the CG looks even worse.
And I am a HUGE TMNT fan since the 80's..still have all the stuff from a kid tothe movies/cartoons on DVD/VHS.

The CG was alright. Not awesome but alright .. the voices is what really ruined it for me. They just didn't sound right.

I can't view it because I'm outside the U.S. I hate how all the networks and cable channels have done this on their websites. It's a goddamn trailer.

Ok, so it wasn't as dark and mature as we had hoped, but I think it looks good. I laughed, so thats all that matters for now.

HUH!?
Dude I think you need to replace "we" with "you" ..I love the 80's cartoon and it's as cheesy as one can get..again not really "mature" it has nothing to do with "mature" no one even said anything about that...the trailer looks just badly made...like straight to DVD bargin bin quality movie.

This trailer is an example on how NOT to make trailers. What made the teaser so interesting was the setup. You got an atmosphere, a sort of mood if you will. This, on the other hand, prematurely ejaculates all the best moments before we're ready or even close to being ready. Thus, we are mostly left feeling unsatisfied.

Sorry, when the teaser came out, a lot of us dromies were happy at how dark it looked, and many hoped the final film would be just as dark.

I thought it looked awesome. It's not fair for you to knock it because it gives away "all the best moments". For all you know those could be all the worst moments in the film. Give it a chance, I am and I think this trailer looked amazing. I also didn't notice any difference in mood from the teaser. All that one showed was the guys jumping around on rooftops followed by a bad ass pose, and Mikey falling into a dumpster.

The last trailer made no attempt at making it dark. It think it was supposed to be like a scary movie (the comedy) trailer where they set you up to thinking its dark and at the end make you see that its a comedy. (THIS IS ALL JUST AN OPINION)

But see, there was a feeling that that trailer evoked, a feeling harkening back to the first movie. Almost nostalgic, IMO. This last one felt exactly the way the new cartoon series felt. Empty. I'll see it, of course, but I just wish they would have kept to the more interesting shredder storyline. After all, wouldn't it be cool to see a CGI re-imagining of the first film's story arc?

I guess I'm just one of those weird people that would prefer an original story like this over recycled plot from the first film, an origin story that I've already seen a million times.

Yeah, I don't want to see this movie anymore... And I do not think this gets even close to the new 300 trailer....but to each their own I guess.

I agree that the trailer isn't NEARLY as good as the first one. But then again, they obviously have to market this movie to kids somehow. I mean, yeah, some adults like us want it too (but that's why they have the first trailer). But I've found lately that of all the movies I've seen this year (and there have been a LOT) the trailer just doesnt do it justice at all.
And as far as the CG looking like crap, uh, what? It looks fine! The people don't look realistic, but that's so irrelevant (see The Incredibles). I don't see anything wrong with how this movie looks.
And no, I do NOT want a CG retelling of the original. I already know what happens.

a devil's advocate is someone who argues for the sake of arguing. usually you are disagreeing with believes that everyone else agrees on just so that the con can be presented. the idea is to make people think.

That lineup makes SO much sense. We should bring back my sociological analysis of why people like what ninja turtle thread from the old days. Doesn't this make sense?
Abacus: Leo
Satansmagichat: Raph
BrianGilmore:Mikey
Thundercat: Don
God damn, that's how we would've predicted it too. AWESOME DUDES. AWESOME.

I'm not sure you're correct on the definition of devil's advocate.
I'll check on wikipedia
And you are totally correct sir! Joshuaspecter rocks so hard his cock does the encore!!!!!!

Joshuapechter's one of the most clever guys here and y'all didn't get his joke:
He called himself the Devil's Advocate b/c he is disagreeing with what everyone agree's with. It is also a double-entendre b/c Satansmagichat is who everyone agrees with.
It might've been confusing b/c:
An advocate is someone that advocates FOR that person so his joke was inherently a contradiction, grammatically and contextually.
I saw where he was going with it, though, and i laughed. heck yeah pechter.

dude, that's Krang in his mechanical body suit. Krang is a little alien brain type guy who uses that human looking body suit to travel around. He also slurps a lot. Man, how would you guys feel if he turned out in the movie?!
