For some reason I can't remember him in that, only that Johnathan Brandis was in it. I might be thinking of a different movie. LOVE Ernie Reyes Jr. he made The Rundown worth it.

"Sidekicks," not to be confused with the '92 movie, was a short lived tv series that came out in '86. Ernie Reyes Jr. played a mini-asskicker whose father dies, and is left in the care of a cop. It lasted only one season. I believe the pilot was on Wonderful World of Disney and it was called, "The Last Electric Knight."

Part 1 of the pilot. Watch Reyes kick Don Cheadles ass:

Is this actually a new live-action TMNT, or are they just looking for mo-cap actors? I liked the CG TMNT movie, and I was hoping that any sequels would go down that road. I'm not sure how I feel about them going back down the muppet route (not that I don't like muppets. I just think the CG version feels truer to the comics).

Really, the Hollywood & Highland courtyard? A completely public place? Unprofessional.

They said it was going to be live action but they're going to CG the turtles' faces. I'm sure they will use CG in some other instances too.

I smiled when I saw Ernie Reyes Jr. was attached to the project. He was Donatello in the first movie and was Keno in the second.

I heard that the new TMNT movie has a rape scene in it. this is the uncut version that they plan on putting into the movie.
