My inbox has been getting slammed the past couple days about the news regarding the upcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie. All the outrage is over a comment producer Michael Bay made about the turtles being from outer space. My thoughts?
I watched the video clip and laughed out loud. I thought he was making a joke or it was a slip up. Do I care much? No. It’s Michael Bay. What did you expect? The Transformers movies had barely anything to do with Transformers, so I’ve always been foreseeing him giving the same sort of treatment to TMNT. Changing the turtles origins I’m sure is only the beginning. Wait until you see Krang is a 20 foot slug or something. We can only guess.
Why does Michael Bay have to be involved with every horror reboot and every reboot of our favorite 80′s cartoons. Because you all keep going to see his movies! The last Transformers movie made over a billion dollars worldwide! Sure I thought the Transformers movies were entertaining enough, though I wish they were called something else. The title was the bait and we were the fish. You have the choice to see the new TMNT or not. My suggestion is if you don’t like the concept, avoid the bait and don’t see it.
March 20, 2012 at 6:14 pm
you’re preaching to the choir. The people who don’t like the Transformers movies didn’t go to see them; they made money because of Michael Bay’s and Transformer’s name and because people wanted popcorn summer blockbusters where shit blows up and giant robots fight each other. It couldn’t matter less if the movies had nothing to do with Transformers. Michael Bay knows how to make the kind of trash people will pay to see.
March 20, 2012 at 6:23 pm
Only masochists watch Micheal Bay & Uwe Boll movies. If you want to spend money to be punished, rent a dominatrix.
March 20, 2012 at 6:27 pm
Hey guys, if you just want explosions & robots fighting eachother, Samurai Pizza Cats is finally coming to DVD.
March 20, 2012 at 6:28 pm
Download A Free torrent instead! It’s free and legal under the I can say whatever the fuck I want act
March 20, 2012 at 6:33 pm
Quite the uproar over this and for good reason…this puts a lot of TMNT fundamentals at jeopardy. Personally I dont think Bay’s Transformers broke away from the fundamentals this much. At least the transformers were aliens. This kind of break from the TMNT conventions would be equal to say if bay changed the story that Transformers were robots made by human scientist or something…
March 20, 2012 at 6:38 pm
I don’t care how flashy Michael Bay’s movies are, he’s a bad director and epitomizes all that’s wrong with modern cinema.
March 20, 2012 at 6:39 pm
Good points as always, James. Don’t have much to add myself, but this clip from The Critic pretty much sums it up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EnHfWdlCaQk
March 20, 2012 at 6:47 pm
When I watched the 2nd transformers, I imagined Nelson Shin on the set of the movie saying,”Okay who gave Michael the camera?”
March 20, 2012 at 6:48 pm
I will wait for the reviews and if it turns out they changed the origins to some ridiculous alien shit I simply wont go….furthermore, if the movie is filled with explosions and shit, i wont bother. Ninja Turtle Movies need no explosions for action elements, just good old ninja action…if this turns out to be shit thenyou can be sure I will be boycotting it all the way which includes not allowing my 6 year old nephew to be subjected to it….
March 20, 2012 at 6:50 pm
wouldnt it be great if Jackie Chan was directing this?
March 20, 2012 at 6:54 pm
THIS IS AN OUTRAGE!!!
WE WILL TAKE THE STREETS!!!OCCUPY TMNT 2012
March 20, 2012 at 6:57 pm
Never have I seen the atrocities that is Michael Bay’s Transformers. They looked horrible in the trailers and from what I’ve heard my suspicions came true. Now this hack of a director is going to be involved in a new TMNT film? I will most definitely pass.
March 20, 2012 at 6:58 pm
a simple solution to checking a movie out without paying for it is torrenting it. Honestly, if it’s a movie like this from a mega producer like Michael Bay, who cares if you rob him of the $15 it’ll be to see the movie on a normal screen? I’m sure he doesn’t.
March 20, 2012 at 7:01 pm
@ThomasSeanCassidy I either download it or check out the spoilers at TheMovieSpoiler.com before I pay money to see something. Unless I’m going with my family. Then I expect the movie to suck.
March 20, 2012 at 7:04 pm
@KenSmellsGood @ThomasSeanCassidy But Ken, if you check the spoliers first then if the movie is good you just screwed yourself.
March 20, 2012 at 6:59 pm
frist off i like 2 of bay’s tranformers, i enjoyed the frist and cgi tmnt films and only liked the 2003 i think cartoon, and have read some of the orginal comics. the idea of them being from space dont bother me (but i think they should now do tmnt vs biker mice from mars) at all, its how the finally product looks, if bay is good at one thing its producing or manging large scale action so this gives me hope.
March 20, 2012 at 7:17 pm
@samspr
The main problem a lot of people have is that … if it’s an alien race. Well, they aren’t really mutants now are they? And, being an alien that looks like a humanoid turtle doesn’t really make you a turtle either (compared to being an actual turtle “mutated” into human form). So, basically, in a single pitch, Bay has basically made half of the TMNT title a lie basically. It’s Teenage Alien Ninjas.
March 20, 2012 at 7:30 pm
@Kanta_Mizuno he said “from an alien race” and in the comics and the 2k3 series they make it clear that the mutagen was made by the Utroms….there was even a scene planned for Ninja Turtles 2 where Jordon Perry was going to turn out to be an Utrom…so the Ninja Turtles have always had “alien” backgrounds.
March 20, 2012 at 6:59 pm
Fuck Transformers. Transmorphers is where it’s at.
March 20, 2012 at 7:01 pm
Michael Bay is like the kid in your neighborhood whose parents buy him all the toys that you want, but can’t afford, then he shits on them in front of you and asks if you want to play…
March 20, 2012 at 7:07 pm
@ShannonStamey
nothing is like making you see itt
March 20, 2012 at 7:01 pm
i can imagine the Angry Nerd yeling stuff like ”what kind of shithead son of a motherless goat would make TMNT into aliens? Michael Bay you’re a sick fuck-diarrhea eating-motherfucker
March 20, 2012 at 7:08 pm
This movie is going to be a shitload of fuck. I’d rather lick the pus from the boil on a boar’s ass. This is gonna be so fuckin’ bad…*drinks Rolling Rock to numb the pain*…the next Twilight’ll win an Oscar, only Robert Pattinson won’t be able to attend because he’ll be too busy cleaning up the massive shit he took when he saw this movie.
March 20, 2012 at 7:10 pm
Michael Bay has only done two films that can actually be considered decent by any intelligent life form’s standards: The Rock and Armageddon.
March 20, 2012 at 7:10 pm
Well said, James.
March 20, 2012 at 7:13 pm
Actually, I am eagerly anticipating this movie. If I want to see the exact same thing I did in the 80′s, I will bust out my dvds and watch them. I have no problem with someone changing it up a bit and giving the public a fresh taste of something people care about. I don’t want the SAME EXACT THING I have seen before. I personally did not like the transformers movies, but that is just me. I can appreciate a very different take on an existing franchise and am waiting for it with, altho no expectations.
March 20, 2012 at 7:43 pm
@Dantheman11281 Of course don’t want the EXACT same thing, but we also don’t want them to change anything too drastic. “Teenage Alien Ninja Turtles?” He’s changing a major plot point of the story and the characters. Even the voice actor who played the original Michaelangelo has expressed his disapproval. It’s alright to slighty change things from a story as it progresses, but change it too drastically and it becomes something entirely different. In which case it should have a different title all together. Imagine if a band like Coldplay started making death metal music like Slayer; It wouldn’t be the same.

My thoughts exactly, the little fish should not feed the shark, or he will get bigger and fatter.
March 20, 2012 at 7:14 pm
I don’t need these movies. There’s a 1986 Transformers movie and the original TMNT film. Those were both great and are two of my favorite films ever. This stuff Bay is putting out are only knock offs.
March 20, 2012 at 7:18 pm
Yeah, whatever he does to the franchise… could it really be worse than TMNT III?
March 20, 2012 at 7:18 pm
could be decent, too early to say…..may not be what you think….have faith
March 20, 2012 at 7:22 pm
The only way this atrocity can be undone is to get Del Toro to do Inhumanoids..
March 20, 2012 at 7:25 pm
But to be fair, in the movies at least the Transformers were actually giant alien robots and not something else all together; unlike the Turtles being referred to as aliens. This is a new and greater violation than what James is saying.
March 20, 2012 at 7:28 pm
i felt the same about transformers. i wanted to see more robot on robot action and story. the humans should have been the side story, but it was vice versa in all 3 movies
March 20, 2012 at 7:33 pm
Why is it even called tmnt? what even makes them mutants? now they are aliens, not muatnts. Why are they ninja? the art of the ninja is an art form created on earth. Why are they even turtles? turtles are earth animals. This whole concept is so stupid. I will not watch it.
March 20, 2012 at 7:34 pm
He is calling most of you idiots because you keep watching those damn remakes.
Which is so true.
Why are you movie watchers so lost?
March 20, 2012 at 7:37 pm
I rather make my movie of TMNT with my action figures then the scope out his crappy concept!
March 20, 2012 at 7:39 pm
We don’t know for sure what Bay meant, it could have been a slip up and he doesn’t really know their actual origins. But that right there is a bad sign. It means it’s a director who is clearly not familiar with the original source material.
March 20, 2012 at 7:45 pm
I wonder. I saw the thing he said on stage, and i wonder if he means it’s “alien” to the audience? That could be true if he is making it the way the old comic books were. Just saying….
March 20, 2012 at 7:47 pm
By the way, have you seen the new ninja turtles rehash by Nickelodeon? They have three toes…. the rest looks legit, but I’m just saying…
March 20, 2012 at 8:28 pm
@DashWilkinson Yeah man! I totally saw that and had to make double look cause I thought I was seeing things! But nope! They have three toes! Makes sense since the have three fingures so I totally respect that. The two toes were given to them to make the TMNT look like they’re wearing Ninja Tabi (Which is a neat idea none the less).
March 20, 2012 at 8:38 pm
@ClaudioPaola Hell, think of all of the older comics were they would have other artists do comics for the tutrles in Mirage days and they had 4 fingers lol
March 20, 2012 at 7:48 pm
The facts that they’re ‘teenage’ and ‘mutant’ is just flavour anyways, as long as they’re turtles that are ninjas it will pretty much be the same. Origin stories are just the words behind it, it doesn’t matter a whole lot. People using the word ‘rape’ are embarrassing the fans by acting like crybabies.
March 20, 2012 at 7:51 pm
If I remember correctly all the TMNT series took place on different timelines and in different dimensions (this includes the 80′s series, the 30′s comic strips, and the 00′s). All the versions of all the turtles all met each other in one episode! I say, this is a new dimension, a new timeline, and yet a new group of turtles; sure they can come from outerspace. The important thing is the “80s turtles” were born on Earth and were actual turtles and transformed by being mixed with mutagen and ooze. As long as Michael Bay doesn’t touch them, I am full game to see what he has done to the ever evolving and mutating series.
March 20, 2012 at 7:57 pm
@rossb83 It is true, the old 80′s comics did do that. They crossed over with other characters that would not add up, but in the end, followed the crazy “space” adventure later in both Mirage and Archie comics. Still, even in space, they were still always mutants from earth in the end, …always,
March 20, 2012 at 7:58 pm
As long he keeps the orgin story the same, I’m game. The Turtle “multi-verse” has always been Turtles and should always remain turtles. Not Aliens. Turtles are from Earth. The Ooze is from Earth. Splinter, Shredder, the cast are from Earth. Thats it, thats all, thats all there is. No aliens. No abominations to what we’ve grown to love.
March 20, 2012 at 7:59 pm
@ClaudioPaola Exactly
March 20, 2012 at 7:53 pm
Bay clearly has not spoken to a TMNT fan. Bay clearly has not read any of the TMNT comics. Bay clearly has no idea what he’s doing. Obviously he’s out to ruin one of the greatest memories we have just to implant his insulting ideas into the minds of modern kids. TMNT were if not are one of the main reasons why we do what we do and like what we like. They were on TV, on our walls, in our toy chests and most of all, in our hearts and Bay is trying to take those memories and manipulate them. Well, I have some news for you Bay, you can’t and never will hear a true TMNT fan appreciate your film. If anything, Bay should appologize to Eastman and Laird for his abomination of an idea.
March 20, 2012 at 7:59 pm
@ClaudioPaola But on the other side, if you watch the video, did he mean that? look at this, we might have hope still… or they are testing the webs for reaction… http://io9.com/tmnt/

March 20, 2012 at 8:44 pm
He’s telling fans to chill. What does that say about his initial idea? He knows most people disliek his idea so I bet he’s now re-writing his draft lol Great article! Thanks for sharing!
March 20, 2012 at 9:06 pm
@DashWilkinson You know what? I let my anger get ahead of me. Bay says, “These Turtles will be from an alien race”. Therefore, I think he does mean that the Turtles will still be Turtles, but from an alien race. Ok after rewatchign that with an open mind (thanks to you) I can calm down and appreciate the idea a little more.
AND by the way, the second link for the TMNT comic you gave me works perfectly! This is going to be my “morning newspaper” for a while! lol <:D
March 20, 2012 at 8:00 pm
Perfect, James!
March 20, 2012 at 8:05 pm
Is Michael Bay starting to turn into Uwe Boll 2.0?
Keep making movies of nerd-loved video games and/or cartoons and somehow manages to shit all over it…
March 20, 2012 at 8:08 pm
I bet Raphael will be turned into a Mexican stereotype, and will fight with a leaf blower instead of sais.
March 20, 2012 at 8:10 pm
Trust me, I understand the outrage. A lot of things are changing for TMNT on Nickelodeon. I think what they are going for is not so bad with making them more “teenage like” and whatnot. But the Micheal Bay thing is a mystery. I still wonder if he meant “alien” to the audience, or “aliens” in general.
Being a kid born in 1979, I was there, front and center for Ninja Turtles. Old enough to read the first black and white comics , while mom tears them away from her… and yet also old enough to get to enjoy the later animations and collect the wonky action figures.
Because of TMNT, I became a special effects artist and later video game designer. I owe a lot to the franchise as silly as it was with its cereal and creme pies (which were delicious) Video game nerd was only a few years younger than me, and got in to it after the comics. He’s what we call, the cartoon age. He discovered the Mirage series probably much later in life, and that happened a lot for anyone born later in the mid 1980′s.
But, being the pre cartoon genre, I want the old comics, and there might be a chance for this. They gave us a tiny reflection in “Turtles Forever”, which I wish nerd or nostalgia critic would give more cred to. Back then, there were only red bananas… things were gritty, but also funny. It was a good time.
March 20, 2012 at 8:23 pm
I really appreciate your comments and do agree with you. As a kid born in the 80′s, I to read, watch(ed), collect (still do) TMNT everything. I played most of their games and watched I’m pretty sure every TMNT episode made. I’m not saying I know everything about the TMNT, Im just saying Im a huge fan and it hurts everytime someone bashes them. I think the number one issue alot of people (including myself) have is letting go of the past and entering the future. I didnt like the way the TMNT (2007) looked but they really (and I mean really) grew on me. The Next Generation TMNT looked very silly but I look at them today and say to myself, “man they are bad a** “. “Turtles Forever” touched upon many TMNT multi-verses but the thing is is that they were always turtles. I’m sure you’d have to agree that making them “aliens” is a little ‘looking too far into the future’. he may as well call them and title the film something completely different. I never in my entire life would have thought someone would take an icon like the TMNT and completely change their meaning. I have pet turtles named after the four. I had a pet mouse named “Splinter”. Throughout my time in film school, I looked to the TMNT as inspiration for my own stories. I even made a Casey Jones orgin short film. Its ironic how you and I have persued our future career because of the TMNT. Whats that got to say for how inspirational they are?
March 20, 2012 at 8:28 pm
@ClaudioPaola Well then Claudio, you and I have a similar passion. I agree the 2007 series was actually pretty damn amazing, (until they did that future crap with them). But I must say it is stall all a mystery and in the hands of a few select people that we have no control over.
But as a big fan, I will share a very cool fan comic that I think you would appreciate. Not many know of it, but I think it’s the best I have ever seen,… give it a shot and you will be happy. It’s about the turtles in their 30′s.
http://www.obscurezodiac.com/chapterindex.php
March 20, 2012 at 8:39 pm
WOW! OMG Man! This is the coolest thing I’ve seen in forever! And Im just talkign about the artwork so far! It weird though cause when I click on the ‘next’ button to flip the page, its refreshes the current page. Perhpas its just my browser so I’ll definately check it out home (I’m at work, ironically working for a television station editing old re-runs of 80′s cartoons like Thundercats, He-Man, GIJoe and of course, TMNT lol). I really really appreciate you sharing thins link Dash. It actually made my day! lol
March 20, 2012 at 8:46 pm
@ClaudioPaola No problem! They guy that made this manga is very talented. The thing is, he started doing this as a kid! So as episodes go on, the artwork and story progresses in such a way I was floored! Really good stuff. I am happy you like it. Been trying for years to get nerd to read it, but you know… he prolly did not even see the link. Ninja Turtle fans would flip out if only they knew about this comic.
I’m personally hooked. I guess if you know anyone else, pass it along. Don’t really know the kid that made this series but I must say, he’s a genius. Also, look me up on FB if you have it. I have a feeling you and I would get along lol! https://www.facebook.com/Dashwilkinson

@DashWilkinson PERFECT! Thanks again! You’re a life saver! lol
March 20, 2012 at 9:13 pm
And… Accepted lol Yeah you can bet I’m going to be telling everyone about this comic! Its going up as my status right now! lol its too good to not know about! Its unfortunate James didnt get to see it but hey, he’s a busy guy these days. Though, Im sure he has lots of time to read a few pages a day while driving to his film location lol Thats a lie, I know from being an experience film maker that when you’re on the road, you’re reading your scirpts and storyboards. Rinse and repeat lol And we wouldnt want James getting too hooked on TMNT comics when he has the greatest film of all time to shoot lol Maybe we should just constantly send him emails regarding the site lol now you have one more person trying to tell him to read these comics!
March 20, 2012 at 8:10 pm
James, the first time I saw that article, you were the first person I thought of. I thought, “Man, I cant wait to hear what James has to say about this!”. When I read your thought regardign the issue, I found it very incomplete. Perhaps it is too early to evaluate the situation regarding Bay and his idea but you said, “ if you don’t like the concept, avoid the bait and don’t see it.” but thats a hard decision. Sure, we can avoid temptation but if you’re deeply passionate about the TMNT as I am and as you are, how can you not take the bait and see it? I absolutely love the Friday the 13th franshise and when I heard about the 2009 remake, I said to myself, “Oh man, I really don’t want to see my childhood masked killer who I’ve grown to love get butched by his own hand” and when I saw it, I was a little pleased but mostly angry. Jason was not who he originally was and nor will the new TMNT (If they’re aliens). I’m not targeting just Bay. It doesnt matter who is remaking the TMNT. Anyone that thinks the TMNT should be aliens should think not for themselves, not for their production company, but for the fans. I know what I want to see and you do to, James.
March 20, 2012 at 8:13 pm
@ClaudioPaola He’s probably thinking in the same matter I am, not enough information. Watch the video and you will see what I mean. I am not clear yet on this either if in fact he means “alien’ to you, or “aliens”
March 20, 2012 at 8:24 pm
@DashWilkinson Yeah I agree. Its a little early to assume anything. We’ll have to wait the fate of the TMNT I guess, lol
March 20, 2012 at 8:30 pm
You said this much better than I ever could. Not sure if you’ve seen this response from Bay:
http://www.mercurynews.com/movies-dvd/ci_20216178/michael-bay-tells-ninja-turtles-fans-chill
“”Fans need to take a breath and chill,” Bay said in a statement posted on his site Monday night. “They have not read the script. Our team is working closely with one of the original creators of ‘Ninja Turtles’ to help expand and give a more complex back story. Relax, we are including everything that made you become fans in the first place. We are just building a richer world.”"
“Including everything that made you become fans in the first place” except, you know, the story.
March 20, 2012 at 8:34 pm
@decacerata Yeah, just read it. So i think, he might be inciting the “alien” being TCRI or TGRI (if you are only movie fluent) in this statement, being an alien fluid, aka mutegen,… which in the comics it is?
March 20, 2012 at 8:53 pm
@DashWilkinson @decacerata You know what? That s not that bad of an idea. If the TGRI/TCRI is an ‘alien’ then it could possibly make sense. I’ll thumbs up that idea. Then again, ooze was just bio waste the happen to be under the poor turtle’s and rat’s feet lol but the emotion the Turtles convey regarding the ooze being an ‘alien’ will differ completely then the emotion they feel now from just ‘ooze’. It could be hit-or-miss.
March 20, 2012 at 8:39 pm
They displayed Turtle POWER!!!

I feel that this movie will be horrible, but aliens is what Bay knows best. Yea Transformers was bad, but I hope it’s not a CGI fest like them. The turtles should be live puppets.

Mass Effect 3 has been out for a couple of weeks so could everyone who’s been bitching about that maybe shift their focus to Teenage Alien Ninja Turtloids now? That’s something that could potentially be changed. And if it can’t be changed we can all just avoid the movie once it is out
March 20, 2012 at 8:39 pm
*smh, good grief…..just leave it alone. The 1st two live action were good, it started going downhill with 3, but it’ll be better than whatever MB has got planned. :/

This is gonna be so fuckin’ bad…*drinks Rolling Rock to numb the pain*…the next Twilight’ll win an Oscar, only Robert Pattinson won’t be able to attend because he’ll be too busy cleaning up the massive shit he took when he saw this movie.

Michael Bay is a smart guy. Take something popular that people have already heard of, and make a movie out of it. People are going to go see it just because of the name, regardless of how bad it’s going to be.

As if it weren’t bad enough that Nick€lod£on are behind this new TMNT movie! This new TMNT movie will be SO bad it’ll make Turtle Tunes/We Wish You A Turtle Christmas seem good!

The mutagen that changed the turtles was created by aliens in the comics. Not a large leap.

Michael Bay is a talentless hack.

So the the turtles are aliens. Bet Master Splinter is a black guy, with plenty of stereotypical racial hilarity

Well said James. I’ve not seen a Michael Bay film in theatres, with the exception of the first Transformers, which is terrible. It was a CGI mind fuck with Shia Labeouf and Megan Fox photo shopped on a green screen. Post Last Crusade, and Willow, Lucas has fucked the art of film making. Michael Bay is the new Lucas, with no talent. Lucas after he shelled out his great ideas. Return Of The Jedi, I would still love to see David Lynch’s doesn’t make sense style had he directed it. Michael Bay, George Lucas post 1995, please eat a dick, stop making movies. I won’t buy Star Wars on DVD, stick to Laserdisc and VHS
