It’s actually kinda refreshing to hear the turtles voiced by actual teenagers this time.

Decided to repost since being bottom-paged is inconvenient. The trailer has been officially uploaded:

From permanent teenager Seth Rogen, a new generation of heroes will rise...from the sewers.

Watch the new teaser trailer for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: #Mutant Mayhem - Only in theatres August 4, 2023.

In Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, after years of being sheltered from the human world, the Turtle brothers set out to win the hearts of New Yorkers and be accepted as normal teenagers through heroic acts. Their new friend April O’Neil helps them take on a mysterious crime syndicate, but they soon get in over their heads when an army of mutants is unleashed upon them.

I really do like the artstyle of this. It's very Into the Spider-verse-esque. (I'm still not sure about Mikey's design though.)

God bless Spider-Verse for advancing CG animation in animated films

It's influence can really be felt

Its the hotel transylvania effect in action I think (only difference here is that into the Spiderverse was a really good film that you can't just ape)

It's refreshing to have a TMNT property that holds back on both Shredder and Krang.

I'm not particulary versed with TMNT, but I am absolutely here for Spider-Verse inspired animation more and more becomming the norm. And not just imitations of it but actually individual takes on it with distinctive art styles.

And at least based on my limited exposure to the Turtles in the past, was this trailer the first time they felt like actual teenagers to me.

They've really been using too many adults to voice the turtles in previous installments. The turtles sound weirdly young and I know they're voiced by real teens. Dawson Casting really warped my perspective.

It's funny how they have been steadily emphasizing the Turtles to be more teenage like over the years

Contrast to the 2K incarnation where they pretty much look like adults

On the topic of the animation, should there be a trope page for this Spider-Verse-esque low frame-rate animation that's becoming quite the trend?

That joke about the ooze at the end: I remember back in the second live action film, Secret of the Ooze, Keno heard their story and said "So you guys got slimed," and the turtles, Raph especially, seemed to take offense to that, angrily saying, "It wasn't slime, it was ooze."

I kinda hope we get a Thanos thing for Shredder as Andre the black nerd theorized. Where he'll be a looming presence but his minions like Stockman, Karai, etc. Will serve as individual arc villains before at the end he finally arrives to kick ass.

Is Donny's voice female?

Edit: Never mind. Looked up Micah Abby. I figured it was either female voice or just really young voice actor.

Now I know.

It amazes me how 2k3 is the only TMNT that managed to avoid the pitfalls of putting mutants in the show. The closest was Turtles Forever.

What was wrong with the way the other shows used mutants?

I mean they never used mutants at all. And I felt they were gimmicky/meant to sell toys.

If you downright dismissed a big part of the cast as "pitfalls" that means you're not the target audience.

Imagine if I said that The Batman cartoon did a good job avoiding using guys like Two-Face or Zsasz because those two don't have super powers or gimmicky weapons, they're not really supervillains, right?

......I Mean this is a toy based franchise ? Thats kinda the aim at the end of the day.

I also don't get that. Considering the main characters are mutants and the series has always used a diverse set of concepts.

Even if the 2k3 version didn't have alot of mutants specifically, it still had a ton of highly marketable characters. The various aliens and superheroes come to mind.

Yeah like with transformers that's a pretty strange thing to complain about when you remember the franchise stays alive due to it?

That's what I mean. Rather than MOTW they became more of... recurring characters, even if sparse. Also from what I remembered 2k3 toys were less about action figures and more of set pieces?

So, I checked the like/dislike ratio and... What the fuck? Are the fanboys that mad?
