Were fans right to fear TMNT 2014? - TMNT movie

[@TheTurtleNexus]

Thanks for watching! What place does this movie has for you compared to the other TMNT movies?

[@havindatadhd]

@@TheTurtleNexus its low on the totem pole, but i dont hate it like allot of people do, its still an entertaining flick. The second one is above it tho, that was allot better.

[@benmalsky9834]

@@TheTurtleNexus Obviously the 1990 film, the 2007 film and Mutant Mayhem are better, but I do like this movie and Out of the Shadows for what they are. The 2014 does contain many elements and parts that I think are very good like the pizza interrogation scene, the hill battle, the elevator scene and the end credits song, but I do think that having Eric Sachs and Shredder be one and the same would have made it way better. And contrary to what other people say, I do actually quite like Out of the Shadows. Yes it’s very goofy, but it does a good job in feeling like an extended episode of the 80s cartoon and having it actually focus on the turtles’ inner conflict made it an improvement over the 2014 film.

[@stefanbesendorfer1323]

To be honest i like this version of the TMNT as well as it's sequel. I'm aware that both movies have many plotholes, but they were truly satisfying for my inner child. Especially when Bebop and Rocksteady appeared in "Out of the Shadows". Yes, the movie could've been a lot better, but it also could've been worse. It was just fan service. And i really appreciate the CGI-visualization, although i prefer smaller Turtles. 😂

[@OwenYoung-yv1vc]

I hated how much these two movies had an utter disdain for the TMNT source material. And on top of that, it ended any hope for a live action movie until the Last Ronin movie was announced. After Ronin, I hope they make a proper Turtles reboot that’s a blend of the mature grittiness of the Mirage comics/1990 movie and the humor and wacky characters of the other iterations.

[@benmalsky9834]

@@OwenYoung-yv1vc Really, I thought Out of the Shadows really knew how to appeal to the fans of the original cartoon.

[@benmalsky9834]

I will say with the 2014 film, I think it would have been better if they kept the idea of Shredder and Eric Sachs being the same character. It would have made things much more interesting and a unique take on Shredder we haven’t seen before. It also would have made added to the emotional baggage of the Turtles and April wanting to take him down, especially when it’s revealed that he killed April’s father.

[@SM-th7pw]

I personally think if they had stuck with William Fichtner being the Shredder it would’ve made for a better antagonist. The movie establishes that Eric Sax was raised by Oroku Saki in Japan, then came to America and built his empire. In theory, it could have worked if it was developed as Eric Sax being the “protege” Shredder with the fancy robot Shredder suit, however once he is defeated Oroku Saki pulls a “fine i’ll do it myself” and comes to America to face the Turtles in the sequel or something. This way William Fichtner is still the Shredder whilst not replacing Oroku Saki, and Oroku Saki is presented as the *true* Shredder. Now this is just a theory, I have no way of saying for sure this was the original idea, I have no idea what was filmed before the reshoots.

[@Ultriac301]

Maybe they got the idea from the 2003 animated series in which Season 2 Shredder had always been the real one while the first one had just been inspired and assumed the mantle for himself.

[@PixelsNcreatureS]

I actually really liked, "Out of the Shadows" but I feel it was 25 years AND 3 years too late. It's what I would have wanted besides this movie and in 1991 (I can't stand secret of the ooze 😂)

[@havindatadhd]

@@PixelsNcreatureS secret of the ooze was way goofy, i agree. "Theyre babies" gets me everytime tho.

[@benmalsky9834]

@@havindatadhd It’s definitely a guilty pleasure movie, especially once they get to the Vanilla Ice scene. You just kind of go with it

[@PixelsNcreatureS]

@@havindatadhd it's watchable over 3 definitely . I wish they filmed the actual "secret" of the ooze though

[@benmalsky9834]

@@PixelsNcreatureS That would take some serious negotiations with Ice or his estate.

[@TheBestComicKing]

I still think the rewrites/reshoot is the big issue for the movie. I think the movie would’ve been better if they kept Eric Sacks as the Shredder for THIS movie, cause how they shoehorned in the Oroku Saki was a hack job at best.

[@benmalsky9834]

@@TheBestComicKing That’s my biggest criticism as well.

[@nicholasbennett7367]

They will never get it better than Jim Henson did. That’s all they have to do to make a good turtle movie

[@ΕυάγγελοςΦώσκολος]

Personally, I liked these two movies. I know that most people don't like the second one (probably because we didn't get another Shredder vs Turtles fight), but I kinda want to see another one about Kraang returning, but this time, he's Shredder's prisoner and he forces him to upgrade his weapons and armor and in the end the writers could tease a bigger threat coming (perhaps the Triceratons). I feel like these two movies could have been part of a larger franchise.

[@johnpittsii7524]

Thanks for the amazing video ❤

[@JeremyDineen-u9e]

would like to see NECA do figures out of 2014 and 2016 out of the shadows, mainly the 1st movie shredder, bebop, rocksteady and krang to go with the 90 movie figure, the but one can only hope right?

[@TMNTTHECONTINUITY]

I like these movies

[@davidbrowne5969]

It felt like watching the amazing Spider-Man at least the rooftop fight

[@tonycrosby9384]

You should do a video about Angel next, especially since she was brought back for the Tales of the TMNT series.

[@TheTurtleNexus]

She was never gone! She's been in comics and video games all along. She is in the list, but I have to cover Tales first. (Already in the works).

[@toughluck8012]

I haven't appreciated any movie or show since the 2003 run

[@Homey104]

I think I'll stick with the Mutant Mayhem series thank you very much!

[@DM006]

Personally, I'm not a fan of this movie either. But there's only one reason I don't like it, that Splinter teaches the art of the Ninja through a book. How stupid! It was almost the same reason why I was ready to reject Mutant Mayhem (but then I changed my mind, in the end the animated film was good). Small note. In the scene where Splinter takes out a pizza and shouts "99 Formaggio!" he makes a mistake. Formaggio in Italian is singular. He should have said "99 Formaggi!".

[@sethstrattan7380]

I enjoy the 2014 movie. But they were flaws I don’t like at all but the turtle designs were ok. Leonardo’s design has to be my favorite. It’s a samurai look i enjoy a lot. Donnie is a close second but wish it was a bit better

[@SherAli123go]

The original script was the best aside Turtles being an Alien race.

[@Bingo_the_Pug]

They keep going back & forth from live action to CGI. The next reboot will most likely be live action again.

[@benmalsky9834]

I actually do like the 2010s TMNT films. Yes I know they are not perfect and the 1990 film, the 2007 film & Mutant Mayhem are way better, but they are decent movies in my book, especially Out of the Shadows as I thought they did a good job emulating an episode of the 80s cartoon.

[@Morgil27]

So, there was this South Park episode where they compare the fourth Indiana Jones movie to witnessing a rape. I never really got that joke, as I just couldn't see a movie based on a beloved childhood franchise as ever being _that_ bad. Then the Michael Bay Ninja Turtles movie came out...

[@culeroconnor1686]

Megan Fox was what I like the most about that movie

[@hectoralicea7719]

A massive disappointment and do-rag Raph becoming the standard really sucks, as he's my favorite character and looks bad with his head covered. Same with this need to absolutely PILE gadgets, goggles, glasses, bits and bobs on the rest of the gang. They look horrible since then and it all started here...
