Please don't make me see TMNT, GR peer pressure squad.

Haha. Honestly laughed out loud at that. GR Peer Pressure Squad is real.

Definitely not seeing this though.
 
When I saw the first trailer, I thought it possibly had potential. And then the second trailer was the exact same thing. And this trailer happened and showed just dumb action.

It's a movie for kids. What do you expect?

That's what I'm feeling more and more about these movies. TMNT, Amazing Spider-man 2, etc are just not made for me.
 
I started off being really negative on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but the more I heard about it, the more I warmed up to it. This new trailer looks amazing. Don't know if I'll go to the theater for it yet, but I'm still excited to see it.

Also, Knowhere looks rad.
Ah, so the giant floating space head is Knowhere. I've only read a couple of Guardians books and some stuff online, in those Knowhere just looked like a space station of the non-head variety.

On to this week's report.

Gotham director Danny Cannon says the inspiration for Gotham City's appearance in the new show is if New York City had continued to deteriorate after the 1970's. Cannon says he's also try to win over DC bigwig Geoff Johns with a pitch he has for an origin story for Mr Freeze.

Elden Henson (Jobs, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay), is joining the Netflix Daredevil series as Matt Murdock's legal partner Foggy Nelson.

Scoot McNairy (Argo, 12 Years A Slave) is joining the cast of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice in an unspecified role.

There's been some speculation about how Wonder Woman will appear in the film costume-wise. According to sources who say they've seen the costume designs, her appearance is ripped right from the comics and has a “traditional, yet sleekerâ€
 
I honestly don't know how I feel about the casting choice for Aquaman. On one hand, people apparently like him in Game of Thrones. On the other hand, I don't know if he's Boston enough to play Aquaman and they just chose him to try and make Aquaman seem more "badass". So we'll see.

you guys are lame. movie looks awesome.

have some fun. sheesh.

Yes we are lame and do not have fun because we think that one movie looks lame.I did have interest in it until Megan Fox was cast. And I saw a trailer. The turtles don't seem very likable for centra characters. I'll probably go see it though because it's TMNT.

As far as an adult TMNT goes the original from 1990 was kind of a dark film and to this day I still enjoy it.
 
Ugh beat me to it, so I'll just insert this from the update I'm working on:

Awhile back, I speculated that with Caitlin Snow (pre Killer Frost) being on The Flash, Firestorm may show up at some point. Well, Robbie Amell (cousin to Arrow star Stephen Amell) will be joining the show as Ronnie Raymond, a maintenance worker at S.T.A.R. Labs and Snow’s fiancé. Raymond will play an 'integral part' in the particle accelerator accident that transforms Barry Allen into The Flash. In the comics, Raymond is fused with a physicist during a nuclear accident to become the hero Firestorm.

Just a small update this weekend. Big news will be coming with Comic Con though.

Building off what was posted about casting for The Flash, over on the Arrow side of things, Brandon Routh, who previously played the titular character in Superman Returns, will be joining Arrow to portray Ray Palmer, the man who will become The Atom.

Also for Arrow, Devon Aoki (Sin City, 2 Fast 2 Furious) will have a recurring role as martial arts expert Katana.

Filming is underway in New York for the Daredevil Netflix series. Here's a short video taken while the crew was shooting a pivotal scene: I can't see!

Part of John Constantine's image is his smoking habit, but for the new show, NBC says no smoking allowed. Director Neil Marshal says they are disappointed in the decision but will still try to work around it and get aspects of it in the show where they can. So Hannibal can do his thing on NBC, but Thor forbid someone lights up a smoke.

Here's a promo image of Henry Cavill as Superman in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice with a new hairstyle, slightly redesigned suit and appearing to be standing on a Gotham rooftop.

Anna Paquin filmed a few scenes for X-Men: Days of Future Past, but the bulk of them were left on the cutting room floor. Producer Lauren Shuler Donner says that the home release later this year will have a directors cut with Rogue's scenes restored.

Bryan Singer posted a sneak peek via Instagram of the script treatment for X-Men: Apocalypse.

Here's a couple of good looks at Michael Rooker as Yondu in Guardians of the Galaxy.

from here on out please note 98.7% of what i say on this forum, or anywhere else on the internet, is not to be taken to heart.

pretty much all the people that said they weren't too happy with the new TMNT, are my favorite posters on the forum. no butt hurt was intended.

you're like the emotional version of Chris_Crime. you get upset over every single thing I post, and Chris goes into a psychotic rant over every single thing I post. sorry, honestly isn't my intention.


I can totally understand why one might be a little concerned about the new TMNT.

Michael Bay
Ninja Turtles look completely CGI
Megan Fox
Dubstep
Giant shredder

etc. etc.

I just don't care. If I don't go in expecting to be blown away, I can almost guarantee it will be a lot of fun. A bad TMNT movie is not going to ruin my childhood memories of TMNT.
 
Haha. Sean Gunn looks just as awesome as Rooker. I love when directors reuse their same guys in character roles.

The no-smoking-mandate is one of those dumb things about network tv that jumps out and reminds you how outdated their business models are. People do smoke in real life, shitheads.
 
Welp... if the executive were against Constantine smoking, i am guessing they are against him being Bi? Sigh...

Inb4 lore nerds pop their head in and say "Constantine being Bi wasn't canon!"

Hollywood has been doing the same thing. Good Guys smoking is generally frowned upon now. Mass murder? Fine. Smoking? No.

That was addressed as well. No, he won't be bi. On a side note, I don't believe in bi guys. If you like crank, you're gay, even if you also dabble in clam. For a double standard though, chicks can be totally bi and I encourage it.
