Live-Action TMNT Reboot

I fully expect there to be characters called Sacco and Vanzetti in that.

Taylor Lautner (Jacob from the "Twilight" movies) has been cast as Leonardo.

It's April Fool's Day, it's not true. Wow, some people are just desperate to find reasons to hate Michael Bay....

Even if it was real, how would that be any different to casting Corey Feldman as the voice of one of the turtles back in the eighties?

BCUZ TWILITE GRAAAH

Seriously, though, I kinda feel sorry for the people from those movies, since they'll probably never be taken seriously as actors by the public at large ever again.

So, any TMNT news?

Except Jim Henson.

Oh, I meant the Twilight movies. Whoops ^_^;

We have nothing to worry about at all. Eastman and Laird are two of the guys writing the script, and there are reports that Krang, Bebop, and Rocksteady will be in it. And Shredder can't not be in it.

The script has been leaked.

Even if you ignore that they're aliens now, it's still painfully bad.

Oww it BURNS.

...
words fail me

I can only assume Eastman and Laird took one look at that script and tossed it out of the building.

Eastman's done nothing but talk about how great it is, probably because he can't do anything else. Since Laird's distanced from the property, he can say anything about it...and he has.

Oh! Links to Laird's statements, please?

Edit: Never mind, I found them myself.

SHE F*CKING BEAT Jane Levy, Anna Kendrick and Elizabeth Olsen.

Screw this bullsh*t, I'm out until they get some good casting for the turtles, Splinter, Shredder and Casey

At least we've got an absolutely stellar Cartoon series and comic series to balance thing out from this crap...

WHY?

Why not?

You know, considering all of Megan Fox's comments and the like towards Bay, I'm surprised that he would want to work with her again. Did the executives want her in? Or did he just want her in for her looks, rather than her acting skills? Probably the latter.

I don't know what to think anymore, and this is coming from a defender (yes really) of Michael Bay. Really, he should just stick to what he does best; fun, mindless, explosion-filled popcorn flicks like The Rock. Leave toy franchises to others.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!

is that some kind of bent wang or something

I've been told wang fractures are serious business, yo, don't joke with that.

Of all the actresses why Megan Fox? I can see if this was 5 years ago when she was enjoying all that media attention, but at this point she's pretty much viewed as a flash in the pan.

Ok I'm calm and I have to ask this

Do we have confirmation she's April because Bay's blog said she's part of the film but didn't say which role so she could not even be playing April, she could be some random girl on the street or Karai or something I don't know but the point is we don't know if she's actually playing April or not.
